I had a wonderful experience with Save on Kitchens from start to finish. With working with Anna to…read morethe guys that worked in my house. They treated my kitchen as if it was their own kitchen. I was given a two to three week time frame and that was spot on. We had are cabinets refaced, floors done & countertops done. I also had an empty spot in my kitchen that they built new cabinets for. Let me tell you my kitchen looks AMAZING. They went above and beyond my expectations. When I saw the final work done I almost cried it looked so amazing. I highly recommend Save on Kitchens, you will not be disappointment. Great company!

SHORT VERSION: This company is dishonest and disorganized. Poor communication! They do not honor…read moretheir promises: verbal or written! Took my money and ran! Avoid! LONG VERSION: We paid Save on Kitchens $15,000 to reface our kitchen cabinets and replace our counters. Vince wrote the contract up as a 2 week job: 1st week for cabinets and 2nd week for counters. He literally wrote "2 weeks" on our contract. It has to be done this way because the cabinets have to be completed so that the counter measurements are accurate (MORE ON THIS LATER). Job was supposed to start day after Memorial Day 2022. We received a call from Anna THE DAY BEFORE THE START DATE that the job would be delayed a week because the installer got Covid. She said she would give us a discount due to the delay since our kitchen was already emptied out (NEVER HAPPENED!) We explained that we understood things happen and agreed to work to start the following week. What we didn't know was that Anna and Vince weren't moving the start date up a week. They decided to CUT THE AGREED 2 WEEK SCHEDULE IN HALF without ANY communication with us. As a side note, neither Anna nor Vince manage the workers. For some reason, 2 different installers called us fighting over who was going to start the job. How is this our responsibility? We complained about this with Anna who said she would manage it better (NEVER HAPPENED!) They basically thought they could have the reface and the counter measure happen at the same time to get everything done in one week. Instead they did a half-way right job in one week and spent more time the following week trying to fix mistakes (unsuccessfully). As a result of trying to get everything done in one week, the counters were measured while the cabinets were still being refaced. So, of course the final cut counters did not fit for 2 of the 3 sections being replaced. We contacted Anna right away when there was a half inch gap next to our stove and a 1 inch gap next to the refrigerator. Anna tried to gaslight us into accepting it as normal because they did not want to have to remount the sink and disconnect/reconnect the plumbing. We finally got Anna to agree to replace that counter but (per their usual lack of communication) we had no idea when it would be done. They sent the counter team over on Friday of that week. Because they were in a rush, they slipped with the blade used to cut the glue used for the original mount and put a long gash into our brand new sink. Also, since counter installers don't do plumbing and because Anna didn't schedule the cabinet installer to reconnect the plumbing, they were planning on leaving us without a kitchen for the weekend! I again had to stress out and get Vince on the phone to agree to send someone out that day. The other counter was not replaced and has almost no lip like the other counters. It's almost flush with the cabinets. That means that the cabinets have NO PROTECTION against spills. It's only a matter of time before this $15,000 job has to be done AGAIN. Other problems included: * Doors of different sizes * Rough cuts around cabinets * Trash can lids don't clear the cabinets * Trash can pullout squeaks like crazy since a week after install * Dishwasher screws and anchors fell out from being reused for 2nd install After the entire ordeal was done. I sent Save on Kitchens the final payment with a long letter about how chaotic the whole project was and how we were NOT HAPPY with paying FULL PRICE for HALF of what was AGREED. Vince and Anna cashed the check AND NEVER RESPONDED despite being able to reach us by phone, email, and text. That was a year ago! We're still expecting half our money back! And let me be clear that the problem with Save on Kitchens is fully on Anna and Vince. Vince pretty much disappeared after the contract was signed. Anna was always quick to blame the installers for her failure to manage this project and communicate with us what was going on. The installers were great people who were forced to work outside of normal practices and held to the impossible task of making things perfect in half the time. If you were thinking about hiring Save on Kitchens, DON'T! If you're in the grace period to cancel your contract, CANCEL IT! If you're stuck with them, I'M SORRY!

I wish I could share positive remarks similar to other's experience with this company but to be…read morehonest, the experience with our kitchen remodel was awful. The positives were the initial consultation, and the cabinet quality. Once the build started; however, everything went downhill very quickly. Our project was suppose to be from June 5th-July 28th and ended up "finishing" in December. First, we were given a calendar to follow the progress of our kitchen and know what was happening on what exact day; however, that itinerary was never accurate. There were more than two weeks of accumulated days where people were suppose to work and no one showed up. When a lonely soul would show up, he would be wandering around the house or sitting outside in his truck waiting for the project manager because he said he has never done a task like framing. Good to hear as a client :( Second, we had scheduled in advance ABT to install and panel our appliance. We chose this date based on this calendar we were given. When it came close to the install date, we had demo remaining and still down to the studs. We hounded the project manager about the timeline, he would reply with the same response that they were on time. This wasn't the case because they were far from being ready and thus we lost our spot for install. Finally and weeks behind we got dry wall up, and low and behold, we had walls off by 7inches. The worst part of it all was that I had to get my tape measure out, check their work, and point this out. We had to harass the higher up's and they gave us a new project manager. They had to tear down all the incorrectly measured walls and because of this incorrect measurement we had to decrease the size of our pantry. Installation day for my appliances came and we had to use their recommended company Wehrli because we lost our ABT spot. This ended up being $700 more than what ABT charged us. We asked if this would be covered because of how delayed they were and we got a whopping $250 credit...Our backsplash still has holes in the grout, one of our cabinets were sanded down when they sanded our drywall, there were seams that I had to caulk myself, and when their cabinet medics came to touch up the imperfection of our cabinets they missed many spots we flagged. We have under cabinet light rails that are not even, and still have small holes in our walls. This is the finished product we will have to live with because there was never a final walk through and there never will be. Looking back, our experience felt like we chose any ordinary contractor but paid a kitchen design company price for it. We waited a year for this company to be available because of they sold us on how we can trust them that they would manage this project in a timely manner as my wife and I are both busy with our own lives; but in the end, it ended with us managing, checking, and following up constantly only to be disappointed with the final result. Wish we had a better experience.

The Kitchen Studio popped up in my google search as being a local dealer of the specific higher end material I wanted. Upon arrival, an employee told me "they don't do just countertops". Okay. That isn't clear on their website. Then she went on to tell me she can't think of anywhere in the area to refer me that "just does counters". First, of all, there are at least 10 countertop fabricators within a 10 mile radius of Glen Ellyn. Someone in the industry should know this. Second, I'm sure the Kitchen Studio has an in house fabricator or they subcontract it out to someone local (most likely) and thus, why on earth would you not give this person my business??? I have a fairly large kitchen and master vanity. My quotes from the other local fabricators, who do, in fact, exist, are coming in at $120/sq foot and up. I'm giving 2 stars instead of one because all their kitchens on houzz are truly lovely and I'm sure if you hire them they would design a beautiful kitchen.

However when cost estimates were developed for contract signing for the project implementation phase, her personal fees were 3 times of what they should have been per our retainer agreement. When I pointed out the retainer terms, instead of correcting, they sent me a new retainer document and told me their process has changed. The change is permanent and sometimes there is a little fallout like this. These were Susan's words in her email to me. I took them to court ( case#2019SR000483 in Dupage county) to get my money back which I did. Susan herself is talented and personable but her business partner and company co-owner's dealings are disappointing and ignorant of basic business ethics. Susan kept saying he handles all money and pricing aspects. I had to walk away! Update 1/10/2020: I stand by my comments and the fact that you completely disavowed the terms of retainer and when I pointed out the pricing terms that we agreed to In the retainer, you emailed me a new retainer document with all pricing terms removed from it. I would have never signed anything or paid you $7k based on that new retainer devoid of any specifics. This was an act of complete lack of integrity. If you are serious about building reputation, practicing integrity will help. Good luck

When our puppy did too many accidents in our upstairs area, we replaced the hallway and master bedroom with Kardean Luxury Vinyl Tile. At the time, Exploring Flooring did not glue down LVT and only had the lock down type, so we used another company. We love the livability and washability of Luxury Vinyl Tile. Our friend who installs these floors commercially recommended the Kardean brand and to do the glue down version. He was spot on. Recently, I had a measuring done to either refinish our downstairs cherrywood floors or cover them with Kardean vinyl. Tom came out right away but got confused as to my email address. I think they need a company email address, because we played a bit of email tag trying to communicate. Some things that I wonder about. The other company that came out was willing to fix up some not so great areas with new cherrywood trim--ie around half bath vanity that has bare gap areas at bottom and fp that has a very large gap around it (EF said for me to use some type of expandable filler but I think that will be ugly in a inch or more gap). EF also said they don't install new quarter round trim around floor which is a nice touch another place does as standard. You could always hire it out, I suppose. The cherrywood trim pieces is more of an issue for me. Exploring Flooring's quote for refinishing our cherrywood is around $900 less than the other place, so I guess it equals out. The other place wanted $5400 for about a 530 square foot area, so I thought that was a bit pricey. Exploring Flooring is $4500. As far as luxury vinyl quote to glue down Kardan on top of the hardwood, I'm still waiting, but the quote to float Kardean tile on top of the existing floor (an option, but not my fav) is the same as the other company. However, no particular type of Kardean is mentioned, even though I requested the quote on Tergo. All in all, a bit of a hassle to get specifics, but may be a great option overall, if overall pricing is better.

Tom Beeter is a very experienced manager level professional who worked with me on my purchase. Tom has tons on knowledge about design plus technical performance and installation topics. He obviously takes pride in providing a high end result. He's also soft spoken and not pushy at all, which I really don't care for in sales interactions. He came to my home a few times to measure and double check, and ensured that my dishwasher and fridge wouldn't be landlocked by the new flooring. I was equally impressed by Joe and his installation team - consummate professionals with tons of experience, and the dedication to provide a high end result without cutting any corners. Between Tom and Joe, I felt that I was dealing with high integrity guys who genuinely care about the customer and the job. To keep this review as balanced as possible, I'd just note that you should be prepared for sawdust with the installation of a new wood floor. You might ask about getting somewhat thicker plastic and a somewhat tighter seal over the doors to the work area. Realistically they can't do a really tight seal because they need to go in and out. All in all, I am delighted with this company and will definitely turn to them again for any future flooring needs.

From the beginning, John was a delight to work with. He offered suggestions based on his experience, but he listened carefully to what we wanted and never insisted that his approach was better unless he had good reason to do so. When he came to our place for a final review before committing to a definitive design, a design consultant with whom we have been working joined us and we had a wonderfully collaborative, highly productive brainstorming session. John got started almost as soon as we signed off on the project, was flexible with interim adjustments (which included a visit to his shop when the cabinets were mostly completed), and was done several weeks before our contractors were ready to begin the demolition. (The speed of completion was a bonus that we hadn't even appreciated at the beginning; we have friends who began a kitchen renovation after we did - unfortunately for them they didn't consult with us beforehand - and they won't have their cabinets until November!) John, his partner Steve and John's son came last week to install the cabinets, and they are exactly what we wanted, top quality materials, beautifully finished, built with pride.
