Is $12,306 to install vinyl plank flooring a fair price?

Project Details

I just received a quote from Lowe's for flooring replacement for my house. I would like to see if this quote is reasonable and if anyone has experience using Lowe's for their flooring before. I'm not sure if this is a good quote and I should just go with Lowe's or if I should reach out to a few more local installers to see if they have any better prices, as I've read that local installers usually have lower costs than box stores. I'm going to look for some local installers to compare.
