Several years later, we are still loving our kitchen with the cabinets and countertops we got from Kitchensync. It is highly functional and beautiful, holding up well, and cat-friendly. read more

We did a kitchen remodel several years ago and our contractor recommended KitchenSync as the place to get our cabinets. They worked with us to get the best choice to fit our budget and layout. (We got Mid-Continent cherry cabinets that we're really happy with.) Fast forward to 2022 and a hinge on one cabinet door had come loose, causing the door to sag slightly I called the shop and asked if we needed a special tool because Phillips and slot screwdrivers were not working very well. Jeffrey looked into it and confirmed that we needed a Pozidrive #2 bit (available at Ace Hardware for $2). Sure enough, problem solved. The point being, they are great to work with and will stand by their products and customers years after the sale. Can't ask for more. read more

This review is long overdue. We bought our Ultracraft kitchen cabinets and Caesarstone quartz countertop from Jeff and he was awesome! Our cabinets are beautiful, we are so happy with them. When they first arrived, some of them were damaged (Ultracraft's fault, not Jeffs) and Jeff was on vacation but Gary (owner and manager at the SF location) was sooo helpful. He exchanged all of them out immediately and took care of it. The prices were extremely reasonable and competitive with other places we shopped at (especially the quartz countertops). Jeff is great with communication and always responded quickly. He worked well with our contractor and is just an all around great guy. I would definitely recommend him to my friends. I have absolutely no regrets about using him! read more

We are incredibly pleased with our Ultracraft cabinets and quartz countertops for the remodel of our kitchen and bathrooms. While we had kitchen tile backsplash already selected and some idea of what we wanted for cabinets, we greatly appreciated Jeffrey's design advice, patience, and responsiveness. With all our kitchen remodel research, there were a lot of details we overlooked (i.e. peninsula overhang depth, cabinet trim vs. molding throughout the space, storage advice, etc.) Jeffrey is a pleasure to work with and I highly recommend his services. read more

Jeffrey helped us with a kitchen for a new ADU. He spent a long time going through several iterations of the design, and was communicative about manufacturing delays due to COVID-19. We are hoping to go back to him again to remodel the kitchen in our main house. read more

We had great service from Jeffrey from start to finish. We bought our Ultracraft kitchen cabinets, Caeserstone countertop and Top Knobs drawer pulls from him. The prices were excellent; the delivery went smoothly. When a few additional trim pieces were necessary, he did not charge us anything extra. He even helped us find the right contractor for the job, since we knew that the cabinet installation would be the trickiest part of our kitchen re-do. And he recommended an excellent local draftsperson who saved us money in drawing up the plans for our permit. We are very happy with the way our kitchen turned out. read more

We just finished our kitchen remodel and purchased all of our cabinets (Ultracraft)and countertops (Cambria quartz) from Kitchensync. Jeffrey helped us design a great kitchen, making the entire kitchen useable. He also came through for us when we had some drama with lead times. Prices are competitive as well. Highly recommend this local shop! read more

After spending way too much time without assistance at large cabinet and counter stores, I found Kitchen Sync. Jeffrey was incredibly helpful with the cabinet lay out and design of my very narrow galley kitchen and small master bathroom. Furthermore, his estimate for the granite counter and cabinets was less than those of the the large stores. The results are outstanding! The maple Shaker cabinets and black honed granite are absolutely stunning! If I didn't know, I'd think the cabinets were custom made. Jeffrey is very busy, but that's because his work is excellent. Do yourself a favor and use Kitchen Sync for your cabinets and counters. read more

We bought Kraftmaid cabinets and Caesarstone countertops from Jeffrey. I'm very satisfied with the whole experience. We will definitely return to Kitchen Sync for our next remodel. Prices were competitive with other dealers and Jeffrey was very professional and his customer service was exceptional. Jeffrey took very good care of us. We had some problems with damage to the cabinets during the countertop installation and Jeffrey sent a professional furniture repair specialist to fix the damage. The isn't even noticeable now. He said he would have replaced the entire cabinet if we were unsatisfied. Also, he quickly replaced some damaged doors we discovered about 4 months after receiving the shipment even though it was past the deadline for replacement parts. Anyone looking for cabinets or countertops should stop by Kitchen Sync. Jeffrey will ensure you are satisfied. read more

We had an excellent experience with Jeffrey Lim at Kitchensync. Jeffrey designed the layout of our kitchen and really took his time to help us get the style and functionality that we wanted at a price that we could afford. He is super-friendly, promptly returns calls and e-mails, and truly listens to what you want. Remodeling can be stressful and I was always appreciative of his mellow demeanor and lack of pushy "do this, buy that" attitude that I have found elsewhere. In addition to top-notch customer service, Kitchensync also has very competitive prices. We shopped around a lot to get the cabinets and countertops that we liked at the best possible price --- and ended up buying both at Kitchensync. Highly recommended. read more

We believe that Jeffery Lim at KitchenSync is a knowledgeable professional for kitchen design & cabinetry - we recently worked with Jeffery to design and acquire Ultracraft cabinets & ceasarstone countertops for a complete renovation of our bungalow house kitchen, although we are both architects [public & institutional buildings only] Jeffrey educated us about kitchen cabinetry and countertops, he is quite patient, respectful of your decisions, budget & perspectives. Jeffery took care of all details for the cabinet & countertops order, he took responsibility for all errors or omissions by the vendors. We are very happy with the outcome equally with his service. KitchenSync seems to represent a good range of product lines. It is a small personal setting - quite comfortable. read more

Dealing with Jeffrey at Kitchensync throughout our house remodel has been such a pleasure. Not only is he detail-oriented and extremely low-pressure, he offered us the best prices on our cabinets and countertops. We shopped around quite a bit before deciding on what to go with and where to purchase.... Even when there were some complications with our order (the manufacturer's fault, not anything to do with Kitchensync), Jeffrey calmly stepped right in and took care of things for us right away. read more

Jeffrey Lim at Kitchensync was very easy to work with and has excellent products at a variety of price lines. He handled the details very carefully and was helpful to our contractor on details of the installation. When we needed extra items that we had not foreseen, he was able to provide materials that are consistent with the original pieces. In addition, his professional and personal partner, Toshie Lim of Wacworks in Albany CA made for a seamless coordination of talents. Highly recommended! read more

My experience with Kitchen Sync started out good but became progressively bad to the point where I would not recommend them to anyone. I came to this place based upon a recommendation from my architect and while the initial consultations went well, when the cabinets were delivered there were numerous problems: wrong cabinets, misalignments, bad fixes, no fixes, and general unresponsiveness. To make up for it they offered me some cabinet accessories but never delivered on them and do not return my complaint calls. It was generally a bad experience for what was supposed to be a great remodel. read more

You can get excellent quality, competitive pricing, and great customer service from a small local business. KitchenSync carries several quality cabinet brands and their prices were better than the a big-box home improvement store that shall remain nameless. Can't say enough good things about Jeffrey. He took his time and we never felt rushed. He helped us flesh out our ideas for redesigning our small, galley style kitchen. Jeffrey then worked closely with the contractor to ensure all the dimensions and features we had envisioned were actually going to work. If you're considering a kitchen remodel or have a complicate project, do yourself a favor and visit KitchenSync. read more

We had a great experience at KitchenSync in Berkeley. We worked with Jeffrey Lim and he was extremely helpful, patient and detai-oriented. He knew the products inside and out and gave great suggestions. We purchased our kitchen cabinets through him as well as our Caesarstone Counters (he uses a terrific installer and fabricator). Jeffrey was able to match prices from other places and it was nice to use a local business as well as receive so much personal attention. We even had a few manufacturing issues with some of the doors and Jeffrey immediately contacted the rep and had the doors reordered quickly. We are very pleased with how everything turned out. read more

It started out well with Jeffrey, he was the only cabinet/countertop vendor that came to the house for the initial assessment and basic estimate, so that and the fact that he was close by caused me to pick him. What a mistake! I should have figured there was a problem when I saw how unorganized his shop was. He was really nice and easy to work with, or so I thought. We ordered the Ultracraft cabinets (DO NOT EVER ORDER THESE - poor quality for the money) in the middle of February so that they would be available the end of March to install in our brand new kitchen. We had to pay half up front with the other half at point of delivery. The order came in on time but...our contractors weren't ready for them so the cabinets sat in the warehouse - which was fine. However, when the contractors put in the cabinets, 2 doors were warped, 1 door was just plain messed up, and the pantry doors had been measured in correctly. We JUST got the replacement (3) doors last Friday (6/21/2013) - which technically wasn't Jeffrey's fault but I really wish I hadn't paid him the full balance until we got everything. Then for the wrong sized pantry doors (which Jeffrey admitted he'd ordered the wrong ones, anyway - we wanted to put in etched glass in those and they came with wood) which were found to be wrong at the end of April, he came to the house in early May (about 2 weeks after finding they were the wrong doors - size and style) he said he'd get them ordered and we should have them the end of May. We had thought he'd reordered them in April two weeks prior - his communication skills are awful! At this point, I decided to just have my general contractor work with him so that I didn't have to do so. Anyway, the pantry cabinets finally came in yesterday (6/25/2013) almost a month after his reorder. ARGHH...and they're wrong again. I've almost given up of having what we want but at least my contractor is keeping up on it - 3months for cabinets is way too long! Then for the countertop, he didn't tell us that in order to do both sides of the kitchen, we'd have to get 2 slabs (an extra 1000) if we didn't want lines or pieced together. Another delay and more expense but at least we finally got them. The overall remodeling experience has been a trial, with things being found wrong and such, but it would have been so much better if Jeffery from KitchenSync, Berkeley, would have done his job better. I will never ever use him again! read more

We had a great experience with Jeffrey at Kitchensync. We purchased kitchen cabinets and countertop from him as part of a kitchen remodel. He was flexible and easy to work with in selecting features for our cabienets. He was very attentive and communicative, keeping us abreast of progress throughout the process. And he was price competitive with Home Depot and other lower cost options. All in all, hard to beat! read more

My new kitchen for a 1930's house in Berkeley Hills came out fabulous, thanks to Jeffrey Lim, who designed the kitchen. Not only is he a good designer, but he is patient and a pleasure to work with. He is extremely customer focused. He introduced two contractor team, who then installed the cabinets, did the plumbing, etc. When you work with Jeffrey make sure he introduces Jim and Mark. read more

Kitchen Sync beat Home Depot for price and service! Jeffrey helped us pick out cabinets that matched some existing shelving and they look great. And we really like our Silestone countertop. Jeffrey pulled a lot of strings to get our cabinets from the manufacturer in time for other work to be done. His advice and service made the job easier and successful in so many ways. We highly recommend Kitchen Sync. read more

We've had our cabinets for a year now and we're very happy with them. Jeffrey has been - and still is - extremely helpful and knowledgeable. We had a very minor issue with one of our cabinets recently and Jeffrey took care of it quickly. Kitchensync was the right decision for us. read more

I recently purchased cabinets for a bathroom remodel from Kitchensync. I would highly recommend them. The level of service and follow-up on any questions I had was great, even though mine was a smaller order. The cabinets look beautiful and their pricing was comparable to big box stores. I will surely use them for any future cabinet purchases. read more
