However, I couldn't pass up the Memorial Day sale on a set of dishes I had been eyeing. I called ahead and the woman I spoke to gave quick and simple directions, and another woman (or maybe the same) greeted me at the door to explain the traffic patterns. I didn't want to linger, so I asked where to find the dishes rather than find myself. I was introduced to Julie who immediately took me to them and explained the popularity of the pattern. She was so easy to work with and had such a relatable sense of humor! There wasn't enough stock on the floor, so she "took my order" and had the stockroom bring everything to the counter, where she wrapped everything individually. Mindy (I believe) cashed me out after making sure to sanitize her station. It was such a seamless process and didn't appear to be creating any negative customer service situations. Great job at adapting, C&B!

I had such high hopes for this store for many reasons, but mainly the price. I have been waiting to…read morepost this review until the process was entirely over so that I could recount the entire event. I'll start at the very beginning when I decided that I was going to purchase a couch and went into the store to look at their selection. I stopped in on Memorial weekend since I knew that if I was going to make such a large purchase, I would rather do it on a weekend when there was a sale. I walked around the store for about an hour, testing the couches, taking pictures, and trying to find the one for me. During this time, not one employee asked me if I needed help, while I could clearly see them all staring at me. I don't want to assume why they did not help me, but it did feel like it was due to my age and appearance since they were quick to help the older couples that fit the store's demographic more accurately. I finally got an employee to help me, and she was very kind. I decided on the Wellington Sectional in the color Pearl. This was a special order since I got a custom color. I came back the next day with my mom to get her opinion and make sure I did not forget to ask any important questions before I made the purchase. Part of the Memorial sale required me to open a credit card, and this is where the trouble truly begins. Half of the couch was to be put on the credit card at the time of purchase, and then the other half at delivery. It was very frustrating opening the card since none of the employees truly seemed to know how their credit card system actually worked. They could not tell me if interest started accruing before or after delivery or any of the other questions that I asked. They told me that the couch was estimated to be delivered in November. I later get an email several months later saying that it was being delayed until the beginning of October, which as you can imagine was confusing. I decided to call and get an answer. Trying to get ahold of customer service has been nothing short of exhausting and unhelpful. They could not tell me why that email was sent and truly had no idea when to expect the couch. This became a real issue for me, since I had made arrangements for my current couch to be given to a friend based on their delivery estimate. Finally weeks later, I get an email saying that now it will be delivered in December. So, I have given my couch away, and will not have one until December. Once again, customer service and the furniture team had no idea what was happening and could not provide me any assistance and when they said they resolved the issue, it was never solved. This becomes a theme. Finally, I do receive the notification I can get my couch. I try to schedule delivery and I am told there is a hold on my account. This can't be since I pay my card every month and have never missed a payment. I call once again. They tell me that my credit card is expired. Now, how can a credit card opened in May expire in less than 6 months. So, once again, I have to figure the issue out myself for customer service. They tell me it is resolved and I can schedule delivery. A week goes by, there is still a hold. I call back and repeat this process. Turns out, the last woman didn't release the hold at all. Finally, the woman named Emily fixes my account after 3 tries and we schedule delivery. Besides the actual couch issues and customer service issues. There were also issues with me receiving my rewards that I was promised from the memorial weekend sale. Not only did they not upload to my account, once I called to have them added, they expired before I even received my couch. They send them to you in separate increments so that you cannot use them to purchase one large item. This sounds petty but after all of the hurdles, I was extremely irritated by this. I finally picked something out on the last day so that they did not go to waste and tried to have it shipped to my home, and shipping was $35, absolutely ridiculous. That was a site wide shipping price for small items. Then, my second round of points were not added, once again. Although, the couch I received is good quality and I am glad that I have it, I would NEVER purchase from this company again. It was not worth the several months of headache and acting as my own customer service agent. They knew they did wrong since they refunded shipping fees, but when you are paying over $3000 for a couch, you expect exceptional customer service and treatment. That is far from what I received.

Wasserstrom is a rip-off company... and so is Amazon Ordered…read moreTWELVE potholders for $9.73 from Wasserstrom on Amazon. Wasserstrom shipped ONE pot holder. When I complained they said "listing was a mistake so here's your money back". I didn't want a refund. I wanted the 12 pot holders I agreed to buy as advertised and described on Amazon by Wasserstrom. Clearly a breach of the retail contract that I, Wasserstrom, and Amazon agreed to when I committed to buy the TWELVE pot holders for $9.73 Wasserstrom blamed Amazon but Amazon was adamant that an accurate item description was the responsibility of the selling partner... Wasserstrom. Amazon was no help at all but then all of a sudden the 12 pot holders were relisted on Amazon as 12 pot holders for $31.99 So is it fraud, bait & switch, breach of contract, or deceptive advertising? I'll see what the FTC says. Wasserstrom has been in business for 120 years. I wonder how many customers they have defrauded and ripped off in those 120 years?

Young Chefs Academy is true to its name. This is truly a miniature culinary school for children and…read moreteens. Why couldn't this place have been around when I was a kid? I became familiar with YCA when my son's daycare had field trips to this location. I also inquired about a birthday party but chose otherwise due to the price. At that time, I was clearly unaware of what all the price included and how worth the money it was. Fast forward a few years, I had the pleasure of getting a behind the scenes look while doing a short term externship for culinary school. YCA is truly not just a drop your kid off for some slice and bake cookie making activities. This is real deal culinary lessons for children. First off, all instructors are knowledgeable, professional, and truly have a way with kids. Since classes start as young as 4, it takes skill to teach and keep kids on task while creating an enjoyable environment. These instructors have been trained well at this. They're also knowledgeable of proper food safety rules and continuously enforce and teach the students in fun ways how to avoid safety issues. I was surprised to see how many young children knew about properly handling raw chicken, not tasting batter with raw eggs, and the importance of repeatedly washing their hands! Besides food safety, knife skills are also covered. Depending on the age and skill of the child, plastic safety knives are used until they've proven otherwise. YCA is all about structure. There are levels - young chefs, junior chefs, and so on. Kids that come on a regular basis have the opportunity to earn patches, move up levels, and participate in different events, such as a YCA open house. Chef coats, hats, aprons, baking kits and other items are all available for purchase in the lobby. Again, why couldn't this have been around when I was a kid?! The fun part, the cooking is what surprised me. It's usually scratch cooking with a theme. The Young Chefs are given detailed recipes and depending on the age/skill level, they're hands on. The recipes range in difficulty and flavor. I'd seen kabobs, bbq, Asian style noodles, an overall variety in foods with a short lesson on the history of the food. The kids also learn the importance of how to work as a team and if the class is large enough, have a friendly competition. An example would be, which team could hand whip cream the fastest. For a structured, fun environment, whether it's a one time class, camp, birthday party, holiday event, or membership, I strongly recommend bringing your child here. I suggest checking out the website, it is informative and easy to maneuver through. Definitely a 5 star program!

Intrigued (I'm infatuated with places that offer quaint happy hour deals), I quickly bookmarked Quinci, and had been wanting to try their offerings ever since. I follow QE on Insta, and I was completely engulfed in a picture they posted of their current Spring Quiche ANNNNNND the Sicilian Lemon pie. I started salivating immediately, and knew I had the try it. Also, with it being Easter weekend, what better items to show up with at the family table. Yeah, go ahead, I scored on this find. Deborah looks to run the front of house, as she's the lady I kept contact with via the phone to place and pick up my order. She was so polite. She was running the show when I arrived to pick up my goodies and was very thankful for my business. So, Gwen, did you like the quiche and pie? Uhmmmm, let me think ab- YES!!! So fluffing good, both. The quiche was not hot, and Deborah gave verbal recommendations for how to serve it if we wanted it warm; we warmed it in the oven, dear me, it was SO GOOD! I forget the exact components of this pastry, but it had plenty of eeg, spring veggies, it was incredibly decadent! I highly recommend you pay attention to their Insta page for any and all seasonal offerings, then buy one for yourself, and one for me. Thank me later. The Sicilian Lemon pie was enveloped with a flaky, but solid pastry crust - a great dessert to end the meal. Fresh lemon and zest - I can totally tell the difference between the two, and this sweet sensation was for sure the real deal! Fair warning, this was quite rich, and one piece was plenty. Sharing it with the fam and friends was the perfect solution. I was told - a year or so back, they have a Friday happy hour special for $10 that involved a charcuterie board and wine, so damn straight I need to go back to QE and check this out!

We've even referred friends + relatives to them (high praise). Our salesman Chad Schirtzinger, his sales manager Chrissy Boasetti, and their fabrication + installation manager Toney Curry were all wonderful to work with - knowledgeable, professional, fair, reasonable, and genuinely nice. They have a big selection of slabs, and a huge room of remnants they can fabricate for smaller jobs, too. We weren't planning to, but found a rem to upgrade the countertop in a half-bath, too. This install was big and challenging - it took 3 huge slabs of matching Quartzite for a giant island and a full-height wall backsplash behind the stove. It took 8 strong men to carry and set the big island slab - I promise we were holding our breath the whole time they were carrying it in. There were a few small hiccups - that's going to happen with a big and complicated job like this. They fixed everything to our satisfaction - no hesitation, no complaints, no problem - they consistently "did the right thing" (which is refreshing and somewhat unusual these days). We kept changing our minds in the design process, and they handled our ideas and frequent changes with expert guidance, kindness and grace. AND... because hard surfaces aren't cheap, and Quartzite is quite expensive (2.5x-3x the cost of granite) - their prices were fair, fair, fair. They were fully 1/3 cheaper than another well-known granite fabricator I've spent a LOT of money with in the past (and never will again). The Granite Guy's prices were fair and reasonable for what we got. I cannot say this strongly enough - we recommend The Granite Guy 100%. 1,000%. 10,000%. Our customer experience with them was awesome and what you'd hope for, their prices were fair, the people are awesome, and we got exactly what we wanted at a price that didn't feel like we were being ripped off (if I show you the quote we got from "those other guys", you'll understand what I mean). This project transformed our kitchen, and our entire home. I've attached pix - check them out. Everyone loves our kitchen now. Thank you, The Granite Guy - you're a classy company full of classy people who understand customer service for a big, scary, expensive project. We loved working with your team, and love the results every time we walk into our kitchen...!!!
