“Lowes is refusing to price match Best Buy because they have a different model number yet I can't find the difference. They advertise the Smart Lock as model number ASL-02, yet when I look up that number I get this model number. Are they the same?”

Sometime merchants have their own SKU Number generated for the same item, by the manufacturer. This is primarily for product tracking, but it also allows them to altogether avoid, price-matching. Some distributors (in agreement with the manufacturer) have also have been known to alter a package's set in some way along with having an almost 'proprietary SKU,' if you will, for the some purpose of ensuring that merchant is the only one that sells THAT exact package product. Dell does this very, frequently. It's quite annoying; to the point that their "Price Match Guarantee" is downright farcical. Don't waste your time, the SKU's are different so they don't have to price match.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.They are both the same. It appears Best Buy is using a variation of the model number.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.They have different models. This one is Gen. 2 however, most other vendors (Lowes, etc.) May be carrying Gen 3. Not sure how that affects the model # but I would check that first.
