Wat een enorme teleurstelling is dit geweest…read more Wij hebben voor ongeveer €15.000 een keuken gekocht bij IKEA. Je verwacht dan toch dat levering en installatie professioneel geregeld zijn. Helaas begon de ellende eigenlijk al vóór de levering. Verkeerd advies bij het bestellen, onderdelen die niet waren toegevoegd, dingen die later weer omgewisseld moesten worden. Oké, kan gebeuren -- dacht ik nog. Maar toen kwam de levering. Op de dag van levering hadden we vrij genomen. Bleek er geen lift geregeld te zijn (terwijl dat wél was afgesproken). De keuken kon niet naar boven. Ondertussen stonden onderdelen in het systeem als "geleverd" terwijl ze er helemaal niet waren. Daarna begon het eindeloze bellen en mailen. De installatie die 1 à 2 dagen zou duren, heeft uiteindelijk bijna vier maanden gesleept. Elke keer kwam de monteur en ontbrak er weer iets. We moesten zélf continu schakelen tussen IKEA en de montagepartner. Alsof wij projectmanager waren van onze eigen keuken. Wat mij nog het meest frustreert is de klantenservice. Er werd vaak gezegd: "We komen hierop terug", "Dit wordt opgepakt". Maar je moest overal zelf achteraan. En uiteindelijk werd het dossier gewoon gesloten, terwijl er helemaal geen oplossing was. Na al die maanden gedoe heb ik voorgesteld om het voor €500 af te ronden. Op een project van €15.000 lijkt me dat meer dan redelijk. Zelfs dat werd afgewezen en verdere communicatie werd stopgezet.

Based on own research on chatgpt, an error E1 normally is linked to water supply. Can't be the installation, cos the 1st month it worked just fine. Called Ikea to see what we can do, they said a technician can look at it, but of course it is a 3rd party, CE Repair Services. So far, disappointed company to work with. The earliest appointment was in 3 weeks after I 1st contacted them. The day arrived when the technician should come by, and in the morning of that same day, they cancelled my appointment. So I have to do a new one, this time in 2 and a half weeks. The overall experience with Ikea is quite poor. It is your device that's broken, you should be doing all the administration to get it fixed. Avoid Ikea, and if you can't, avoid this dishwasher.

Meesterslijpers is hands down the easiest company to purchase from if you want European Le Creuset…read moreand need it shipped to the US. I've ordered from their site a few times now and the items are always well packed and show up incredibly fast. There's no additional charges because they calculate any tariffs or taxes up front and what you pay at checkout is what you pay, period. Shell Pink Le Creuset is very hard to find in the US and Chiffon Pink, while being more common, is usually bought out before I get to it, so I love that Meesterslijpers' keeps the Shell Pink color in stock. All in all, it's a fantastic business and I highly appreciate their prompt shipping and high attention to detail so I'll absolutely keep coming back for more Shell Pink Le Creuset!

This great kitchen store has every gadget you could possibly want or need in your kitchen, and scores more items you don't need but are really cool to have ;) Why not five stars? I guess the only reason would be the price. This store is pretty expensive but hey, you get what you pay for and I went home with an imported German new best friend. That's worth a lot right?

Studio Bazar is the place for getting anything you need that has to do with cooking or baking. Whenever I need something, I can get it here. The shop isn't to big, which makes it quite cosy in comparison with a big shop like Duikelman. Also this place has some nice glass wares and other colourful stuff which makes the look of the shop more fun. Usually I go to this place while I am shopping with someone else , and often these other persons aren't that much into cooking and more interested in fashion shops , so I'm usually no longer inside than 5 minutes. Just getting what I need and going again. I really should go to this place alone someday (or with another foodie) so I can you check everything out they sell. :)

Their main advantage seems to be their low prices, but the disadvantage is that the quality is not the best. I am most impressed that they seem to always have some Hello Kitty DVD or videotape in stock. That's a very unique product that is hard to find. And if you want some chintzy football-themed hospitality paraphernalia, like a snack dish that looks like a football field with dip compartments where the two goals are, then this is the place to go.
