We chose Studio41 for our bathroom renovation because of their beautiful product selection and…read morebecause we received the recommendation from our contractor. We assumed the higher cost would come with a higher level of customer service and communication, but unfortunately, that was not our experience. Prior to purchase, communication was solid. However, once payment was received and the order was placed, communication significantly declined. One major issue was that we were not informed us that our order would be split into two separate shipments with different numbers. I received one invoice with one order number. When we received notice that our order was ready for delivery, we reasonably assumed the entire order had arrived and ready to be delivered. Instead, only half of the order was delivered. Because Studio41 does not deliver items into residential units, we had to hire movers to transport large and heavy items--including a vanity, toilet, and tile--into our condo. Had we known the order arriving was not the full order, we could have planned accordingly. Instead, we incurred the cost and inconvenience of hiring movers on two separate occasions. When I contacted customer service to discuss the situation, the response was disappointing. Rather than acknowledging the communication gap, the representative was dismissive and implied that split shipments are common knowledge. As a customer, I don't believe it's unreasonable to expect this information to be proactively communicated, especially when it directly impacts delivery logistics and additional costs. We also encountered issues with Studio41's return policy. We purchased Kohler mirrors that ultimately did not work for our project due to installation requirements. Although the mirrors were brand new and still available from Kohler, the only option offered was a return with a 50% restocking fee. Given the substantial markup on many products and the overall purchase amount, we expected more flexibility and a greater focus on customer satisfaction. To be clear, the products themselves are beautiful and high quality. My dissatisfaction is entirely with the customer experience after the sale. For a company positioning itself as a premium showroom, the communication, support, and return process fell well short of expectations. Unfortunately, I would not shop at Studio41 again and would encourage others to carefully review delivery and return policies before making a purchase.

He has a showroom location where he was able to remotely let us in and we were able to browse his cabinet and countertop options at our own pace. He was attentive and answered our many questions throughout the process. His people delivered the cabinets directly to our unit and made sure everything was accounted for. When we noticed a paint defect on a door, Tony was quick to replace it and helped us get additional molding when we needed it. Overall, Tony did an excellent job on our cabinets. Additionally, his recommendation for countertops, Urban Countertops, did an exceptional job. Thank you to Tony for your patience and experience throughout this process!

Oh Lord... How we fell in love Waterworks fixtures!! We went in knowing full well it would be a…read morelittle out of our budget, but decided to adjust other elements of our home remodel to accommodate our love of their unlacquered brass fixtures. Our salesperson was very quick to reply - even if the correspondence was lacking in warmth - but I persevered. I wasn't looking for friendship. But that is where my satisfaction ends with Waterworks. Overall, the products are amazing. You are paying for an extremely high end product. You will love them. You will dream about them. You will spend a lot of time on Pinterest. If you can swallow the bitter pill of feeling like a second class citizen. I just didn't enjoy the experience. We were ignored on our first visit to the showroom - with no excuse, mind you... There was a blizzard going on and no one was shopping at the Merch Mart that day. It was us... and a family flipping through the blueprints for the new home, their designer, and their Waterworks salesperson. We should have know our relationship would be doomed from the beginning. We eventually fell in with our salesperson, who seemed nice and knowledgable, if not a little uninterested. We knew what we liked... we just needed someone to help us maneuver the Waterworks product line. We got super excited. We KNEW we were going to make it work! Then we got the price. Whoa. Regroup. My two star review is not a reflection of the price... We knew going in it was going to be the high end of our budget. It's about the customer service you receive when spending a lot of money. Because lets face it... we could all go to Home Depot and buy Kohler. But when you spend money at Waterworks, you expect to be treated well. Not ass-kissing. I'm talking basic respect. We are a young couple. Sure... we are only doing a kitchen and a bathroom right now, but if we had enjoyed this experience, we would have recommended Waterworks to EVERYONE. We would have been devoted Waterworks loyalists. Instead, we will take our money elsewhere. Additionally: + The website is terrible. + You have to specifically ask that the quote include all the components to make the faucets work, etc.. That seems really, really silly... But to not even ASK if we want those components included seems sneaky.

We did all of that and it was a long process but we were lucky to have this location in downtown Chicago. What I love about this location is it is right around the corner from the Merchandise Mart, so I suggest this...walk around the MM and see all of the latest designs and trends in tile and marble...get ideas and then walk over here because you will save thousands of dollars. It is amazing how you can get the same stones and tiles for more then half of the price the designers at the MM are selling them for. What scares me is that this location has been here for years and no one has even reviewed it on Yelp!!! We were dealing with the Daltile in the burbs to begin with but we ran across this location towards the end when we were finalizing all of our tile and stone orders. This saved us 2 hours in the car, toll roads and gas money. I wish I would have known that this location was downtown when I started my search. The nice thing is that they have designers here and they will pull the tile you want and then help you lay it out. I am so glad that we found this place and were able to save tons of money but still get great quality tiles for our multiple house projects going on. This location is very relaxed, so do not be turned off by it. You may have to ask someone to help you, which is nice because no sales person is jumping on you every 2 minutes to help you. They will let you walk around and get ideas and then when you are ready you ask to see an associate to help you. They also have a Keurig machine too, so do not stop at Starbucks before you walk in here.

First of all, I have to confess to being a great fan of Kohler products. I have purchased items…read morefrom them for over the past 30 years - everything for the home from the kitchen, to the bathrooms, the family room, and basement. I love their designs and innovation, their products are well-made, and even though sometimes they break down over time, they are usually reliable - albeit expensive. So when we realized that we needed to do a remodel on our master bathroom, we were confronted with several decisions - (1) budget for a full remodel? (2) a partial remodel with the exact products we needed? (3) could it be done within a particular timeframe or put this off until next year? We did some research and discovered that the "Kohler Signature Store by Studio41" was the only place near us that carried the entire Kohler line and staff that focused exclusively on their product who could offer suggestions, guidance, and information that we needed to make an informed decision. At Studio41 we met Alicia Schafer, a Senior Designer, who immediately assessed our needs, took the time to show us designs, introduce concepts and ideas that would complement our home while offering the best value, as well as address concerns about purchasing a package for a full remodel or phased construction. Given the availability and design of certain Kohler products, we were able to determine that the phased approach would better suit our needs. Alicia was very knowledgeable, patient and considerate in helping us make our choices. She addressed technical issues pertaining to a particular product and how it may have aligned with our situation by doing the research and providing us with the correct specifications. She did not speculate, ensuring that everything was in order and as advertised. We made our decision, placed the order and she offered to help in any way she could, aside from notifying us once our order arrived. She provided us an approximate window of when the products would be delivered. After several weeks our order finally arrived. Alicia worked with us to have the items delivered on time, which arrived well packaged, secured and labeled, on a pallet and placed in a convenient place for our contractors to access them. Now, this is where things get tricky: Our contractor, inadvertently installed the drawer pulls on our vanity cabinet incorrectly. We determined that he did this because Kohler included only "short" screws with the drawer pulls that would only accommodate single-wall drawers rather than the separate drawer-fronts on this Kohler model. This particular placement would eventually cause a misalignment and drawer- front failure because the stresses of use are placed only on the drawer front and not on the drawer. We also discovered that an optional vanity cabinet drawer that we ordered would not fit - not because of the design of the drawer itself, but because the plumbing in our home adhered to a building code that configured the drain in a manner contrary to products that comply with a more modern code. We contacted Alicia, told her of the problem, which she understood and offered a complete refund once the item was returned to Studio41. On the day we returned the drawer, Alicia happened to be there. She immediately processed the returned item and had it credited to our account. It was at that point we raised the issue about the drawer-fronts. She was incredulous that the wrong screws had been included with the drawers and there were some concerns about the competence of our contractors. Nevertheless, after we discussed this issue at some length, we realized that we were at an impasse: Who is responsible? The customer? Studio 41? The contractor? Is Kohler responsible for not including the proper hardware? Would this require the full replacement of drawer-fronts and hardware? Alicia, after some discussion with Zack(?), offered to replace the drawer-fronts on six (6) vanity cabinet drawers and include the correct sized screws. She stated that they would place the order and they would arrive in a reasonable period of time. We received the replacement drawer fronts within a matter of a couple of weeks. To be clear, Alicia and Studio41 could have stuck by the "corporate" line, maintained that Kohler was not responsible, that our contractors should have used better judgment and acquired the correct sized screws before attempting to install the drawer pulls. But they recognized our frustration and that perhaps Kohler personnel failed to include screws for the drawer pulls that were required for that drawer design. We appreciate the professionalism and understanding displayed in an unusual situation in which - at least this time - full consideration was given to the customer, their happiness, and satisfaction over what could have been a standard response of "buyer beware". Kudos to Studio41 and Alicia Schafer! We will be making future purchases and recommendations!

We used Design Inside for our recent condo renovation, and we were pleased with our designer,…read moreAbigail. We had looked into three or four design firms and went with Design Inside because we got along well with Abigail from the initial consultation. She's friendly and had suggestions from our first meetings. Our remodeling scope was pretty basic (resurface hardwood floors, install new tiling, new lighting, new kitchen countertops/backsplash/hardware, painting, etc.) We weren't planning on taking down any walls or putting up new walls - hence "pretty basic" in our eyes! The initial few weeks involved back and forth with designs and occasional meetings with Abigail so she could get a handle on what we wanted done. Abigail was accommodating with meeting/phone times, and would often meet with us late afternoons or early evening. She created designs we had never thought of doing (enclosing in structural poles, wainscoting, etc). Abigail also was able to easily "read" my husband and I in terms of color schemes and we ended up choosing one of the first few samples of tiling and backsplash that she dropped off with us. Kudos for that! Abigail also provided us bimonthly hours summary / detail so we knew how much we were being charged for her services. She would break down the time she spent working for us by the minute and it was helpful to see where our dollars were being spent. From a "grand overall design", Abigail did a good job, but when we started getting into the details in the later phases, we did run into a few minor issues. I recommend ordering all materials / furniture / art yourself and not going thru Design Inside. With a little work on the intranet, you can find it cheaper, not to mention a lower delivery charge. We had a few material mix-ups with Design Inside - i.e. we received the wrong hardware; not enough tile or grout was ordered. Abigail's measurements for the den were incorrect so she didn't order enough tile / grout - her measurements for the wallpaper were also off, but this time we almost ordered too much. The invoice system used by Design Inside is a little confusing and you should pay very close attention and track your own expenses. It's hard to describe but trying to track all the bills and refunds with the invoices provided was difficult. Overall - I would recommend Design Inside and Abigail for your remodeling needs. I would just offer a bit of advice to double check measurements and order your own materials, but would still recommend the company. Abigail provided different designs and options that demonstrated her design skills as well as her ability to connect with us in terms of what our goal of the remodel was. In our eyes, that was key.

In addition, she directed me on where to invest dollars and where we could save. We worked on several areas of my home in tandem...living room, hallway, master bedroom and guest room. Not to mention storage ideas and thoughts on future bathroom projects. The process was seamless and easy. We put a plan together in a few hours and we were off to the races. One of the most enjoyable experiences in working with Katy was the ability for me to add my own personal touches along the way. She really adapts to her clients in terms of how involved they would like to be. For me, I had lots of ideas that Katy helped me bring to life, streamline and balance. And she also encouraged me to take chances with paint colors, fabric upholstery choices and more. My gallery wall is one of my favorites! I could never have measured and hung with such precision. And my reupholstered hallway bench is one of my favorite stand-out pieces. Thanks Katy! I love Katy's design eye, easy-to-work with attitude and desire to put her client's style into every choice. My condo is finally a home! Love it! I highly recommend working with Design Inside and I plan on doing so for my next projects!
