I called back that day after confirming some measurements and she took my order over the phone and processed the payment on my credit card. Approximately 1 week later I called asking for an estimated shipping date. I was then told the order had not yet been placed with the furniture manufacturing company and they would be unable to do so until the owner got back from vacation, they were not sure when that would be. I asked if I could cancel my order and get a refund and they apologized and said they would reach out to the owner. The following day I received a short e-mail stating my order was placed and shipping information would be sent ASAP (I never received shipping information). Two days ago I received a text message that the chairs were ready to be picked up, I responded I would be by after I got off work to pick them up and got no reply back. I went by the store first thing on Saturday and waited in front of the business 45min past the posted opening hours of 10am, no one showed up. There was no sign regarding closures or inability to open and, of course, no answer on the telephone. I placed my order 28 days ago and I very much regret it. Too expensive for this poor of customer service. I have no comment on the quality of furniture because I have not seen the chairs.

The conversation sounded like she didn't want to be bothered nore waste anytime.

While the firm is world class, it was having Holly Galbo Bopp as our lead point of contact and designer that made the process outstanding. Like anything, you can get products anywhere; it's all about the people. And Holly and the DesignBar founders were amazing. From selecting items in our budget and sourcing things that were our style to being adaptable and rolling with the changes of a new build, Holly was communicative, creative, and a problem-solving wizard. Our home is truly a "home" and the look and feel is a big part of that. Highly recco these folks and am personally grateful for the work! We'll enjoy it for a lifetime!

I had engaged with them to redesign 2 bathrooms and a powder room. It was not a big job and maybe…read moreas such low priority for them and not important. Holly who I was working with us definitely not a senior designer based on my experience. Entry level at best would be my evaluation. No attention to detail, no active listening skills, no due diligence, every meeting was a complete waste of time as she remembered nothing from those meetings. billed for every thing but delivered NOTHING based on what I had been shown I would get when I initially met with them. I eventually had to engage with Sarah the owner who at least measured up accurately but I still don't have finished plans or a spec sheet - nothing from a deliverables standpoint I was expecting for over $4000. I'm still waiting, I paid the invoices in hope I would get a final product but alas I must be very small potatoes for them. I would avoid this company like the plague unless you want to waste your money on people with little customer service as a priority and a company that will charge you for every email and still not deliver a final product! They give designers a bad name!!! I wish I had read Catherine's review before engaging as I'd agree with her over budget and under delivered. Holly didn't do any due diligence with measurements! No actual advise or direction on space saving ideas! Really a waste of over $4000 o could have and did most of that work myself! Their taste is old and antiquated! No creativity at all! FACTS: 1. Project started mid-December - it's now almost April and I still don't have a final 'folder' they advised I would get. 2. The owner agreed the work Holly provided as 'final' was not acceptable and stepped in to fix the issue. Yes I got plans with measurements eventually, but 3-weeks after she took over I still don't have a final spec sheet. 3. The owner kept going back to Holly to ask questions, Holly clearly couldn't remember a thing from our meetings and made stuff up so what Sarah the owner was getting was basically made up stuff and nothing that seemed even close to the conversations are agreements we had made. 4. It's also interesting how the owner has so much time to respond to these reviews vs actually finishing the project. 5. If anyone is interested in seeing what I first got from them, what Sarah sent which was better and the spec sheet that was not correct. Let me know I'm happy to share all this. It's nowhere close to what they advertise on Instagram and what they showed me I would get to 'hand over to the contractor'.

She offered us a soda or coffee, and showed us where the restroom was if we needed it. Honestly it's the warmest reception we've gotten entering a store in a long time, a very nice surprise.

Rating - Best residential supplier I have ever used. I must note that the first review is NOT what we experienced. I'm not sure how that review came out, but I have seen the staff interacts with dozens of people during our time there (and I'm heading in right now to order my cabinets for the Laundry Room). In no case have I seen a pattern of behavior that Morgan R. experienced. I'm not refuting her view of the service, but we saw exactly the opposite. WPM

Working as a contractor in the area for a while I did not realize they existing. I drive right by them to get lumber though never go in. When I finally did I felt stupid that I hadn't been in before. If you are looking to do things on the cheap, Home Depot may be a better bet. If you don't want your home to look like a box store supplied you and have the means to do quality, then I suggest checking this place out. They can get some less expensive stuff and are happy to suggest when quality will not be compromised. I have now used them many times for an array of projects and am happy with the service and the skill of the personal.
