Mohn Custom Interiors

1.0

I DO NOT RECOMMEND MOHN'S CUSTOM INTERIORS OR LEATHERCRAFT FURNITURE. BUYER BEWARE…read more Their customer service is deplorable. Even actual photos of furniture deterioration taken by his staff were inadequate for them to take action on ... Complaints and problems are dismissed and nothing ever happens to address them - never a follow up call. Only personal trips to his store invoked any response and there was no follow up to those either so nothing was ever resolved. In October 2011 I paid Mohn Custom Interiors $10.000+ for a matching set of Leathercraft furniture (couch, chair and bench) based on the great seating of the couch they had as their store demo AND Lou Mohn's personal assurance that he stood behind his products. When the furniture arrived late November I noticed the quality of the cushions was far inferior to their demo model and immediately notified them of this problem. They dismissed this complaint rather than actually look at my cushions. After 6 months the seats began visibly sagging - the middle cushion was flattened and the side cushions were flattened at the inside and flared up at the outside ends - looking like something one sees sitting out on the street for trash pickup. The chair had metal prongs poking out of the front panel and it had the same cushions. The bench was missing padding and the sides flared out when anyone sat on it, causing creases in the leather. I called and one of his employees came to my house and took pictures, again assuring me that they stood behind their product and would take care of the problem. Even with visible photographic proof of the faults in the furniture and my numerous complaints they failed to take any action. I never received a follow up call. I went personally to Mohn's Interiors store in October 2012, again trying to get someone to address these problems, and was told they had seen the pictures - assured me they stood behind their product and would repair the items. After no contact again, I went to Mohn's store the following month. I spoke directly with Lou Mohn who told me I had to wait 12 additional weeks for the Leathercraft representative to come to town - some time in February 2013 so he could bring him to my house to actually see the furniture. At that time I asked Lou Mohn to come personally to my house so he could see all of the furniture himself since he only addressed the problem with the couch. That was my last contact with them, November 2012, and to this date October 2013, they have failed to contact me or address the furniture problems. Neither they nor Leathercraft stand behind their product and their customer service is atrocious. I have little company and the usage of the furniture is very light. The cushions have continued to deteriorate. This furniture that was supposed to last me a lifetime only held up for 6 months. It is extremely uncomfortable and almost impossible to sit on anymore. It was a financial stretch to purchase this furniture and I can't afford to replace or repair it. This is the only furniture I have in my family room and seeing it every day combined with the bad treatment and false promises from Mohn's made me ill and i had to stop going there. If photos taken by his staff were not enough visible proof to act on this problem, I'm not sure what else could qualify. I kept thinking Lou Mohn would take the honorable road and do something but I have lost complete faith in his credibility and honesty. I would caution anyone who considers purchasing from Mohn Custom Interiors or Leathercraft to be aware of their actual actions -- they do not stand behind their products.

The next day they were there within an hour of calling them. An hour later they had it fixed completely. The competition came out the night before and talked about putting valves in the basement, tearing out a bedroom wall to get to the back of the plumbing, and cutting through the shower wall! I knew this was not required because Ray's had switched out the other cartridge just a few months prior to this incident. The competition told me the cartridge was stuck and he may not be able to get a part since it was 8 p.m. He looked up the part and said it would be about $500 for the part and around the same for labor. I told him I'd call another plumber and deal with the mess in the morning. The competition charged me $189 to do nothing. Ray's charged me a total of $200 for parts and labor. I will never attempt plumbing DIY again and I will never use another plumbing service!

From the process of the estimate, to the contract, to even getting issues resolved--nothing but…read moreproblems, being interrupted by people, and quite frankly, some shady business practices. You should be well versed in contract law, paint colors, and triple check any paper against what is verbally discussed if you decide to use this company. Apparently they are very good at saying one thing and writing another. We'll start with the estimate. There is NO transparency in prices. If you watch your money or live on a budget at all--this is not the company for you. They show you photos of all these great doors, tell you to pick one, and then they'll start looking up prices...after they've talked your ear off about it for 30+ minutes, and you don't want to go through the entire 30 minute process again to guess the cost of another door. Simple list of A door is $X? They don't have it. I was told verbatim, "the brochures don't come that way." So apparently salesmen knowing the prices OR even the novel idea of using a pen to write down the prices hadn't occurred to anyone. We agree on the price, anyway, despite feeling like that was all a plot to hike the prices of the products. Slightly higher than others in the area, but we went with what we thought was an organized company. We requested the color that matched our siding. What I specified as the important part--that it match our existing siding. Not a problem, Brett says. We've got that. He writes down a color name. I'm not a door salesman. Or a paint salesman. I don't know one color name from the other. I just know he's shown me 9 colors and 57 doors and one is the color of our siding, plus that this meeting has gone on much longer than I expected an estimate over a door to go. That was in August 2023. The doors finally arrive from the supplier in February 2024. One possible date was given for install, so we took it, not feeling like there were a lot of options. They arrive (earlier than stated and sat in our driveway for a while before ringing the doorbell), and immediately start to work without even checking to ensure the product was correct. No, "would you look at these doors to make sure it's correct?" Nothing. I don't see the doors until they've got my old one already off and who knows where?! It's not like I can say "please put the old door back on because this isn't what I ordered." It's gone. The color: very much NOT the color of my siding. Grey. Blue grey. It's a great color of grey! Beautiful, really. The problem is: My house is brown. If you've ever looked at grey next to brown and kept from losing your lunch, I applaud you. The two are not even slightly complimentary colors. No one with any sense of a color palette--like someone who sells things in different colors for a living--could say these colors go together. So of course I am upset that I thought I was getting a beige/brown tone door and a blue/ grey one showed up. I call in to try to figure out what can be done. I am interrupted by Stacey. Repeatedly throughout this 30 minute call. Stacey doesn't understand why I would want to see the range of prices a product COULD cost before I buy it. Stacey doesn't understand why I might be upset that this is not the color I thought I ordered. Stacey assured me that even though she wasn't there, I was definitely shown every color in a correct representation and weighed my options. Stacey cannot tell me what comes next in the process of fixing this despite that I indeed tell her this is not the color I was *shown* in my house during the estimate and writing of the contract. Yet when I call back, I am told Stacey is the only person who can address this problem. So does Stacey know how to address the problem or does no one knows how to address the problem? Spoiler alert: it's no one. Which means I dig out the contract and the estimate, each of which actually list different colors but because the *contract* lists the incorrect color and obviously verbal remarks aren't worth the paper they're written on, they choose to uphold a piece of paper due to me not being able to correct the salesman that in fact, the color I asked for that matches my siding is called "heritage", which is beige, and not, in fact, "sandstone/beige", which is not beige at all, but grey. The verbal assurances that it would match the siding mean nothing--which, yes, may be contract law 101, but just another example of why you can't trust anything someone here says to you, nor do I think most of us would be able to correct door paint colors that are specific to a single supplier, having seen a single sheet of paper where we were unable to read the tiny font of the paint color, for under a minute, after saying "yes, this color matches my siding" and being assured "this is the color that matches your siding." So, know your paint colors, triple check your contracts, and never have an issue that you expect to fix, because they will help you with exactly none of this. They'll collect their $.

The stair treads were also completely refinished as well as three bedrooms upstairs. When I first inquired about an estimate, the owner of the company promptly got back to me and set an appointment. I was given a written estimate that day which I felt was a very reasonable price for that much work. He is very knowledgeable about both new and old floors and we felt very comfortable in choosing him. Once they started on the floors they showed up every weekday to work on them without fail. When everything was sanded they put a number of different stains on them for us to pick from. Everyone on his crew are very professional. They always made sure we knew what the schedule was for the day and when we could walk on the different areas of the house. They took our very, very old oak floors and restored them to looking so much nicer than I could have imagined. We will definitely be using them in the future, they do gorgeous work.
