Metabo Discounted at Lowe’s

If you have Metabo 18v or would like to pick up some to try out then I would check your Local Lowe’s. There is one Lowe’s in my area that had the end cap of Metabo tools which are now all heavily discounted. They are being clearanced out currently to be sold online only.

It never happened about me bringing Metabo in stores. I think Lowes didn’t give Metabo tools enough time and they needed heavy promotion. I wouldn’t mind trying some cheap metabo tools.

Waiting for one more price drop and then the miter saw is mine! Tool manager said to wait for next week as there will be another price drop.

I have the DeWalt 20v miter saw but I think this would be better.

Why are these not near me?

Never hit any stores near me, they don’t have the brand recognition

Lowes was unrealistic in expecting a brand most people have never even heard of making crazy sales in 6 months let alone a year. It takes time to build a name in the market. Also price didn’t help things either.

Yeah, I would have liked them to hang around a bit longer to at least give them a shot.

The problem with Lowe’s and Metabo is the deal was originally with Metabo back in November of 2015.

With the Acquisition of Metabo by Hitachi, Lowe’s has an exclusive Deal with Hitachi on their newer DIY oriented tools.

Metabo tools were selling according to stock levels but metabo could not keep up with the demand of the test market which was california and north-eastern states (Virginia indiana maryland parts of NJ and NY) Ultimately leading to the demise of the test markets. I was sad that FL did not get tested as FL has a large population; not to mention the super-high prices of imported products. Ah well, CPO has a bunch of their stuff on clearance for now, but they’re having the same problem with the acquisition of metabo by hitachi as well. I’ve heard rumors that Hitachi is moving ALL Production in shanghai instead of parts manufacturing in shanghai and assembly in Nurtengenen or however you spell it.

If its true, metabo as a brand may lose in quality which is why I’m forking out thousands to get what CPO has.

Deleted ‘cuz I’m a dumbass.

I am located in Northeast Florida, Jax, and we had one Lowe’s that carried Metabo as a test market. That is where I saw these deals. I was able to pick up an Impulse hammer drill kit with 2 batteries, circular saw, and 2 battery/charger starter kit (total $350 for all).

Dammit I would have liked to try some bargain Metabo 🙁

Wow, that is a bunch of interesting information.

The discounts are nice but wish they would still carry metabo

You can still buy some of the Metabo items at Lowe’s online with ship to home or store.

Be careful if you buy anything metabo @ lowes like I said earlier there are stock, distribution issues.
I ordered the miter saw and the Lead time (default s&h time) to get to the store or to you is 7-14 days, my store shows its been 21 days for me, RDC (local warehouse) has 0 on hand so it will have to come directly from manufacturer.

meaning the manufacturer has to supply this to the store as your lowe’s store cannot go outside of its operating zone which is usually an area spanning a whole state to half of a state to procure merchandise from another location.

If you buy anything metabo online and no other local area lowe’s has it ( I mean look outside a 60 mile radius if a store in your lowes’ area has it they have to acquire stock from that store to sell to you) have it shipped to the store and I suggest you DEMAND a discount for your long wait if it has been more than 14 days otherwise they have no obligation to give you a discount if its in the allocated amount of time.

also you can try talking them down in price if you see a yellow sticker with a little N on the bottom right they can really, really go low on price. but not under 5% of their purchase price. Talk to a blue shirt.

also by blue shirt, i meant blue vest the ones that say “Service Manager” or some stores even the employees can heavily discount non-stock items

The Lowe’s listing online states the miter saw is the 6.2ah saw kit. However, the one that was in my store was the lesser 5.5ah kit. Just an FYI, the saw is made in China unlike the German made impulse dill. I am sure its still well made.

Man, I just tried to buy a reciprocating saw from any one if those stores to ship to me and Lowe’s freight is $59. Grr.

My wife gave me the green light on the miter saw. Now my question is does anyone knows if home depot will give you cash back if you return something bought with a gift card? I have 50 bucks to the HD and thought it would be nice to be able to use that.

If its a Gift Card, they could give you cash back yes if you ask but some home depots will not.

If it is a merch card then no, and I would advise against returning, they ask to see your DL and if you return stuff without a receipt or return to a merch card then you get a hit on your DL if you do it 3 times you’ll need your receipt for any future exchanges (Yes even if its a merch card.)

Checked the Metabo 18v recip. saw in my cart on the Lowe’s app and it said free shipping today. Placed my order with the current $15 off of $50 code and I was out the door for $98. Waiting on my package now.

I am comparing my new Metabo circular and recip. saws to my outgoing DeWalt 20v circular and recip. I am selling them to a friend with a few extra 20v drills.

What code did you use for the 15 off? I was going to go to the store, but if I can do free shipping and get 15 off I may order it today instead of waiting until Thursday.

Nice price!

I recently got the recip saw ($208 AUD). I haven’t used any other 18V saw but the Metabo has been amazing so far. I really like the sound of it for some reason. It’s hard to describe, but it’s kind of like a turbine whistle sound.

I’d be very interested to hear your opinions on both, especially the circ saw. I can’t find anything at all online about it and I’m thinking of getting one. A comparison to the Dewalts for both would be great to hear too.

. Didn’t last long…

@BK13 ..I’m Indian ,that’s some racist shit

I’m sorry you took it that way, I was trying to poke some lighthearted fun at those who live in big cities back east that think everybody west of Chicago are a bunch of inbred hicks without indoor plumbing. I certainly meant no disrespect towards native people.
