Not only would I recommend Frequency studios but I will also be using his services in the future.

I have been in the market for a baby grand piano, for the last few years. I had previously been…read moreunder the impression, that Irene Besse was closing, and being taken over, by her son-in-law, Micheal. When she still owned her store, I had the chance to try a new Kawai Digital Grand. I liked the instrument, but wasn't in a position to buy one, at the time. Since then, we have lost our piano (due to the flooding of June 2013), and I'm now seriously looking at getting a new instrument. Since I had looked at the old store, I thought that I should check out Micheal's stock. I went into his store, and was appalled at how poorly I was treated by the sales woman. I came in, being friendly, and started to explain what I was looking for, and she was a total snob, stating that they don't sell digitals. When I went ahead to explain the reason (link to Irene Besse), that I thought that they might, she, in no uncertain terms, told me that Micheal had nothing to do with the old store now, and had been in business for years before she closed. I don't mind being educated, as to the status of the store, or the type of product that they do/don't sell, but this information can be delivered in a respectful manner. As a former piano purist, and someone who has been in the music industry for over 25 years, it's a shame that they had such a poor attitude to my enquiries. As it is, I went to a competitor, and have since ordered an acoustic, and spent over $15,000. I would never recommend anyone spend their money there, as they obviously have no respect for the client.

In some contexts, a minute man isn't always the most desirable. But in terms of a print shop, it's…read moreexactly that. I stopped in to get a colour poster printed and stepped out but a few minutes later. By poster, I should clarify that it was a 13"x19", easy enough to do on a colour printer without getting too specialized about the paper. It can be touch and go at some of the big box stores with quality and service from time to time, I get the feeling that isn't the case here. As a franchise, it's got a name and processes behind it, but it's a local owner. And it seems, it's a local owner with a staff that's invested in customer care. Great work Minute Man! You'll be seeing me again soon.

Well, that was enough for me, I knew it would be a great business. Very professional, I felt safe leaving it to them last minute. The cost for this rush job was more than my usual place, but they wouldn't have been able to do it in that short of a time. Plus, a few other places I checked out was a tad cheaper, but they didn't seem to know what they were doing and couldn't promise to do it within a day's time. Posters look great - if you have a urgent job and need it done fast and right, I would recommend this place.

I guess if there's one thing a review challenge is good for, it's also updating old reviews! Whenever I'm in need of party supplies, these are the folks I call first. Actually, I check the website first because they've got an awesome inventory list and online reservation system. We've rented everything from tables, to helium tanks to linens from them and each and every time, my stuff's ready to go. And if you need delivery, that's pretty painless too! And everyone there is always just so pleasant to deal with. It's no wonder I keep coming back.
