The WORST Lowe’s Tech

[@twalls15]

Matt’s reference to “2 fast 2 furious” with “ejecto seato cuz” will not go unnoticed or unappreciated!!!! Great reference Matt

[@theBoomerDoomer]

Today I learned: Austin formally recognizes that he is indeed “Discount Linus.” 😂

[@karnige5804]

he’s been saying that for years lol

[@Bruaskies001]

The guy looking at his phone. Watching Austin and Matt create cringe singing and dancing to baby shark. Is highly accurate. I just lowered the sound and lowered my phone in public.

[@jordanhuey5845]

That was Roman Roy from Succession.

[@marcusescobedo168]

​@Jordan Huey thank you I was about to ask

[@R3AL-AIM]

They make me do it in front of my own children 😭

[@kungfuXdreamz]

[@soulsnatched9438]

Thanks for letting me know that song is in this video so I can be prepared to skip it. It’s already horrible without them making it even more cringe lol. That song just makes me want to cut my ears off so i can’t hear it and gouge my eyeballs out so I can’t see the screen. Whenever I hear that song it feels like someone playing frequencies harmful enough to kill an elephant directly into my ears with subwoofers and at the same time somebody squeezing my balls with a hydraulic press. If someone ever plays it in the same room as me or close enough to me that I can hear it I’m beating your ass.

[@fivebrosstopmos]

That blade's definitely made for carpeting. When you need to switch blades quickly or replace blunt ones.

[@TheBlueDsc]

I used to work overnight stocking at a supermarket and while something like this would definitely be overkill for it, it would be convenient since I went through blades decently quickly at that job.

[@OmniKoneko]

@@TheBlueDsc Did you enjoy that working there? What are the things that you liked and disliked about it?

[@TheBlueDsc]

@@OmniKoneko i enjoyed the job well enough. It wasn't particularly difficult and it was nice not having to deal with customers since the store was closed. Only major pain with it was it being overnight. I can't flip flop my sleep schedule so it made it kinda annoying on my days off when I needed to do various things at normal times.

[@OmniKoneko]

@@TheBlueDsc Interesting, thanks for the good elaboration

[@TheDawnofVanlife]

I think anyone who who more than a casual user would get great use out of that quick change mechanisim. I work backstage in theater and we do need to swap blades fairly regularly. Heck, when I use to work in fast food, I used one to break down tons of boxes every night.

[@alexnewell9631]

Being someone who worked construction, i used dewalt earbuds for a bit. You get used to them, but for the price the sound isnt bad, and comfort is decent. The battery life is what i loved about it. Listen for 5 hours, charge during break, and listen the next 5 hours. But some days i was able to go the full day non stop

[@americanpatriot8996]

I didn’t know Lowe’s sells dewalt products , only Home Depot by me sells Dewalt products and Lowe’s sells other brands including craftsman.

[@DasTechnomancer]

Menard's has to be the final episode of the Home Improvement tech, saving the best for last.

[@N7_Ronnie]

you do save big money at Menards

[@specvross]

I have never heard of this store...is this a deez nuts joke?

[@N7_Ronnie]

@@specvross lol no Menards is a actual store chain its big here in the Midwest, the commercial jiggles is embedded in all of us mid western heads right next to the home depot song

[@DasTechnomancer]

@@specvross Nope. It's also not a "Save Big Money at Your Mom's" joke either.

[@aaronring4704]

Menards isn't west of the Rockies. Don't know if they ship nationwide.

[@russellclarke1997]

That "Why would it be $80 Matt?" Hit different 🤣 #fired/pay cut

[@nicrolis]

As some one who worked at a lowes in their online department, we ran into the "in stock but its not actually in stock" ALOT. I swear that lowes has a worse shrink issue than walmart(which i also worked at, at one point)

[@benjamingonzales1174]

Home depot has nothing on Lowe's. Baby shark speaker was fire 🔥

[@slaternapier1640]

When I worked as a truck-unloader/shipment processor, and stocked shelves...that box blade would be super helpful. since we would go through blades sooo much...but the company wouldn't approve of the lack of safety..all the guys/gals would be playing with them lol. Im sure there's remodel/construction jobs that could or do use it?

[@TheCommanderTaco]

Would be interested to see what kind of tech you can find from a store like goodwill or maybe even a bookstore lol.

[@UberStarFkr]

Not much these days. Goodwill used to be amazing to find some old tech about a decade ago.

[@nomadicjusticetv]

Tilted Nation stuff is actually really good been using some of their stuff for years now, surprised to see them in a store and that's actually kind of exciting lol. The brand has a really awesome back story, they had an entire stream team built up of Twitch and Mixer streamers. Great to see Mixer didn't stop them from keeping going.

[@martinmcwilliams]

The ad break when Austin turned the usb had me screaming noooooooo

[@Changeitback33]

I would very much like to see the tech that is available at your local West Marine - I can only imagine the tech they have for all the people out there with boats, and boat related things.

[@TheDawnofVanlife]

I love the chunky dewalt earbud case. Everything today is sleak and tiny…which is a good way for me to lose things from them either being easily droppable or hard to find.

[@markdotinc8371]

These reviews make me want to play RuneScape again

[@BonJoviBeatlesLedZep]

2:30 Incredible edit. Basically the exact equivalent of a rocket crash.

[@camsoasis2316]

as a construction worker/ flooring installer. i buy kobalt 100pk utility blade from lowes about bi monthly. when you use the blades to cut flooring ontop of concrete it kills blades quickly. i can easily go through 3-4 razor blades a day at work

[@piewackete]

So I worked at Lowe’s for a couple months back in 2022 and we had just gotten those box cutters, I’m in a very gun friendly state and I saw that and had to buy it. I got it for like 15 bucks with my discount and still use it almost daily. I think it’s meant for carpets but I work at a gas station and use it to open boxes. It’s great with the regular blade for opening most boxes and I use the hook blade on anything that could be damaged and so far I have never cut any products accidentally. It’s also so much fun to play with too lol

[@Cankoda15]

I work in construction and I’m changing my utility blades usually at least once a week! And being able to change to a hook blade does seem kinda useful, even thought it seems no different than what I currently do and thats have two knives

[@matthewcovington2699]

Lowe’s distribution is less than half an hour from my front door. I used to work there. They don’t ship from stores for everything

[@Mih52]

Flipable USB-A does exist and austin becomes curious george on that. I like the speaker though with that eyes that will stare you into your soul.

[@benllewelyn98]

Those tough built knifes are actually brilliant for tradesmen who go through half a dozen blades a day and need multip different ones

[@AronFromThisIs]

got them to build me a treehouse for my new office (:

[@TravisMCP]

So disappointed that the delivery man poop story didn't make it into the episode lol

[@eXclurel]

You watch This is for the content, I watch This is for the dope edits, We are not the same.

[@polygondon]

You let baby shark play in the video? There goes your monitization

[@ItzAkela]

When doing roofing if I can’t get the proper blades for cutting shingles I have to use the regular ones and I go through quite a few full length blades in one sitting

[@johnmurray1889]

Dewalt used to have a knife that had 2 slots and sliders, so you could switch between hook blade and regular blade. Ideal for roofing

[@TheSolarrisX-GamingEnthusiast]

It's comfirmed new fruit available the pinemelon! 4:35

[@Uppernight]

Not sure if they would do a Menards hardware store. It's mostly Midwest locations.

[@LonesomeSoliloquy]

I wouldn't by any Dewalt electronics besides the cable, I've had one that I didn't buy, and they hold up much better than any cable I've used.

[@abhisheksengupta1773]

That both side usb was crazy!!! I was as excited as Austin to look at that😮

[@BigDaddy66292]

love the toon town bot sound effect. alot of people dont know that lol

[@flapjackboy]

That utility knife isn't just cool. It's tacticool.

[@bradmyers5354]

I love that he used a VPN to change stores instead of merely changing his zip code on the Lowe’s website. 😂

[@morganmedrano920]

Cut the cords on those roll up rubber keyboards and Staple-gun them to like the face desk as an art piece or like an accent wall. I know you have enough of them by now to do it. 😂

[@RelakS__]

You guys are happy about the reversable USB-A. Somewhere I still have cables with rebersable USB Micro-B connectors. Those are more fragile than normal micro USB connectors, but I had no problem with them.

[@UberStarFkr]

Those "universal" usb A connectors suck in the long run. It's great at first because yeah you don't have to worry about orientation but they wear out because the middle piece with the pins bends back and forth.

[@cpljimmyneutron]

You still didn't get the Black & Decker Battery... the one that attaches to power tools like drills, but also has a USB port in it for your phone, so you can, you know, charge your phone from your drill while building your babies crib or something. If you can't find the B&D one, Greenworks also has one.

[@alexgona8809]

Love weird vids like this keeps me coming back

[@hirevinrs4]

Obviously you guys never cut cardboard and packages everyday as part of your job and having a super sharp thin blade gets dull after cutting thick cardboard and paper on a daily basis. But that cutter is Sick!!!

[@Jolly_Green23]

Lowes used to have free shipping for MyLowes members, and I used it frequently to have stuff shipped to me. They did away with the free shipping, and I haven't bought from them since. Walmart and Amazon got all my business after that. I still wonder if I'm the reason Lowes did away with free shipping..I need something dumb like 2 screws and theyd FedEx it to me. Granted Amazon and Walmart deliver stuff like that within hours now.

[@ringtyler]

They still have free shipping over $35. And they just came out with a new rewards program that once you hit a certain level, it's free shipping with no minimum.

[@maximillianlylat1589]

Would love to see yall cover the dewalt "headset" hearing protection ear muffs with Bluetooth capabilities. almost bought it but i ended up buying a similar "headset" by 3M because it was cheaper. 3M one was pretty solid the sound quality is definitely no gaming headset level of good but it blocks out most outside noise

[@dftns19]

"eject-o seat-o, cuz" is certainly a reference I got.

[@southernpanda33]

You’ve definitely done that keyboard before. I remember that floppy boy.

[@soulcraft2058]

This is the most interesting This Is video I have ever seen since the Home Depot video. I am glad that they brought the bucket back!

[@TheRealGigaCat]

yeah? before even watching mr. likewhore? what do you do with all those likes? shove it up the ....?

[@frankmartinez597]

That cut scene was hilarious. Gave me Family Guy vibes. Love it

[@anumeon]

@1:36 I see that Lord Buckethead has gotten himself a new job after the last disastrous UK election.. :D

[@KYSMO]

Austin formally recognizes that he is indeed “Discount Linus.”

[@gatgat01]

Lowe's has a $79 delivery fee. Unless it's certain appliances or a certain amount you wouldn't believe the people who order one thing and it cost like $10 and the shipping is $79 lmao

[@Champoforyx]

I work for Lowes and have never charged a delivery fee

[@gatgat01]

@YourAverageRetail its literally from delivery. Theres only certain thinfs that you can get free delivery for.

[@ringtyler]

That's delivery, not shipping. If Matt paid that, that's because he selected delivery. If the store sees something like that and the customer paid for it, they're going to ship it instead of sending out a delivery truck with that small of an item load.

[@wetpaint2875]

i want to see a build with the Alphacool Eisbaer Pro Aurora 360 combined with Alphacool Eiswolf 2 AIO so badly in a build. please do a build with these components! i know a ton of other people will also love to see this video. dropping this video idea on all the usual tech youtuber channels that matter. hopefully one of you guys takes the bait.

[@R3AL-AIM]

That Baby Shark alarm might be alright for my kids tbh $30 is expensive, but if I got a little to spare, my girls would love it at least

[@Squilliam3]

The reverse usbA got you all the like. Matt gets a point in the future

[@ChoppyBubbles86]

I loved the ToonTown voice for Mr Lowes! I haven't heard that in awhile lol

[@phunkeej7109]

at least that floppy keyboard wasnt kinked out of shape,like the other lol!

[@gmoss101]

I got one of those reversible USB A cables before and freaked out just as hard as Austin lmao

[@johnnyc0882]

The baby shark alarm clock looks sort of diabolical with its eyes closed

[@TWIGBOOm]

i use a razor knife for my job and depending on the activity i may need to change the blade every week or every 20 minutes, plus if you cut something and hit a metal edge the blade is done

[@DJ-gb8cf]

I’m in the Home Depot break room eating my lunch and giving to this awesome video😂

[@fr0zty86]

That "startup sound" on the soundbar at the end, sounded very alike Lenco btspeaker I have.. hmmm? Do you maybe have a product number I can check to see if it's maybe produced by them and then branded by Lowe's? Also, mfw Baby shark second time this week, first time on call with customer with kids in backg. and Baby shark... ^^

[@gamamew]

That double sided USB A cable it's the star of the video

[@evrynameis_takn]

The music choice was excellent 👌😂

[@carlosmartinez-cv7tb]

Landscaper here, I go through 10 utility blades when I install turf or weed fabrics

[@vengeful8gaming776]

The baby shark brought back 2017 memories from raiding people on ark having that blasting in game chat or in smite 😂

What you didn’t see was austin took the baby shark home for personal use.

[@ZachAttacksTech]

Why does your shirt remind me of Invader Zim " The pig... COMMANDS ME!"

[@Balc0ra]

0:36 if you only use it to cut tape for unboxing? Never. If you use it to cut softer materials for your hobbies? They can go rather fast vs some stuff then.

[@Ax195el]

The “device” sound effects …buéno

[@jonathenwarner4310]

I had one of those dewalt cords for 2 years and didn't have a single issue only reason i don't have it anymore is bc i lost it i was impressed with it tho cords with me usually only last a couple months

[@Junker.66]

I saw some NASA branded keyboard, mouse, and gaming accessories at my local HEB, the backpack and jacket were neat... The gaming stuff looked cheap, you should check them out! i'm curious about the quality.

[@sniklegem]

I saw you use that floppy keyboard last time!!!!

[@sonicmario57]

It cost $80 regardless of how much you order, typically people are getting pallets of stuff or large items shipped. They made a stop in a box truck just to deliver this bucket of stuff for them. It's $20 if you have a pro account, which is free to sign up for if you have a business. Large appliances are shipped for free.

[@sylvy16]

that seems counter to what i’d expect. big delivery fee for bigger appliances but cheap/free for smaller items

[@ringtyler]

That's delivery, not shipping.

[@08mario08]

There’s a ton of people that would find those swap able blades useful. Specially construction

[@carltonleboss]

A reloadable knife might just be the most American thing ever

[@kaaronhudson8112]

Austin I know your back be hurting from carrying all these people

[@NoArmsSally]

home depot theme goes hard

[@danmiller1701]

I find Dewalt's mobile accessories decent, albeit somewhat expensive. The lifetime warranty is a valuable feature, allowing easy replacements. The earbuds have an unusual sound signature, but they're average quality. If you're a Dewalt enthusiast, sticking to their products makes sense.

[@graemeottey]

Shouldn’t wear noise cancelling headphones when jackhammering or mowing the grass etc. your not doing your hearing any benefit cause you are still getting all the Dbs into your hear holes.

[@jaketyler9003]

WHY IS THERE SO MUCH GLASS IN STUDIO and who keeps putting it up and cleaninggggg

Lowe's like the Midwestern company Menard's has expanded to not just home improvement. They sell electronics and other stuff for the home.

[@mcsatans5120]

0:37 One word, carpet.

[@drugzdelaney5760]

I work for Lowes and we don’t have Tech in stores besides nest and ring and a Roku maybe a firestick

[@ringtyler]

They have a bunch of smarthome stuff. And the dewalt headphones and stuff I've seen in store. I've also seen wifi routers in there at one time too. They had beats headphones during black friday one year too.

[@SCTproductionsJ5]

He didn't want to drive to the store to save $80, but then again, he probably is paid that much or more per hour, so somehow it actually makes sense!
