Since I travel the Globe, to worn strife areas, looking for surplus equipment, I have accumulated…read moremy share of worldly artifacts belonging, of course, to another World. Some of those include Persian rugs, found where else, but Persia. And recently when I needed one of those acquisitions trimmed and cleaned, where else to go, but Baseer's in Larchmont. First of all, people come to me because of my deep knowledge of surplus equipment and the market value for key components needed to launch insurrections. And people go to Baseer's because of their knowledge of the finely woven market. But here's another even better reason to go. It's a family business. And the best businesses are a family business. Your first time being there you may see Baseer's wife. May even see their kids studying and talking. And then what you should also know that you won't learn in an ad or elsewhere is that Baseer goes the extra mile. When I called late on a Saturday after he had left the store and closed it, when I was in need of the carpet for that evening, Baseer heard it in my voice and went back, got my trimmed and cleaned carpet and brought it to my home. Wow. Now that's Customer Service at its's best. Not some 1-800 treatment. It's like, when I asked my friend, if the Chinese takeout restaurant down the block from his store was any good? He said, "I don't know. But the same family has been running it for more than 10 years, so it must be pretty good." And that's all you need to know about Baseer's Rugs. The same family run store. For Years. In Larchmont.

I took three Persian rugs to this store for cleaning. Two came out fine, but one was returned with…read moreripples (see picture). I left the rug on the floor for a few weeks hoping the ripples would settle, but they did not. I asked Baseer to take a look and fix the issue, but he denied that the rippling had anything to do with the washing--which is simply not true, as the rug was perfectly fine beforehand. He then charged me an additional $175 to "fix" the rug, but he was unable to do so. The rug still has ripples, and now it is also stretched out of shape (see pictures). When I confronted him about the poor quality of work, instead of taking responsibility, he repeatedly accused me of lying, raised his voice, and even said he never works with people of my background and nationality. This was despite the fact that I had already paid for his poor service and was only voicing a legitimate concern about customer service. To be fair, Baseer's prices are reasonable, but that is probably the only positive thing about his business. Unfortunately, the rug in question had deep sentimental value for us, and now it has been ruined. All he did was accuse me of lying while charging me for services he did not properly deliver. Absolutely terrible customer service. Stay away at all costs.

As the administrator of The Nurtury Montessori School, I know how much the small details matter in…read morea child's environment. So when I walked into Fovaama Rugs and Carpets in Scarsdale, NY, with an urgent need -- an 8-foot round rug for one of our toddler classrooms, needed right away -- I wasn't sure what to expect. We were in the final stretch of preparing for the new school year, with our new families arriving this week to meet their teacher and tour the classroom before their little ones begin. From the moment I arrived, the owner welcomed me with genuine warmth and immediate, professional attention. Just four hours later, I left with a beautiful 8-foot carpet for our circle area -- the heart of a Montessori classroom, where children gather each day. Our staff was overjoyed, and it looks absolutely beautiful in the room. I had come in simply looking for something modern, durable, and easy to clean, but I was genuinely moved by the artistry all around me -- stunning oriental, hand-knotted, and hand-woven rugs, a remarkable collection of Persian pieces, and flooring of every kind. What stayed with me most, though, was how it felt to be cared for by someone who clearly takes such pride in their work. Working with the owner was an absolute pleasure. It's rare to find a business that combines this level of craftsmanship with such kindness and integrity. I wholeheartedly recommend this family-owned and family-run business -- and I'll be returning for years to come. Write a message...

It is such a pleasure to meet with someone who gives you such undivided attention and is so knowledgeable about Persian rugs.

In addition, I have had many rugs cleaned by Pari for prices much lower than elsewhere. If you need her to come to your home, she will do that in order to help you pick the right rug. You will not be disappointed visiting Pari's store...that's why I have spent all these years taking advantage of her knowledge and expertise resulting in me having rugs that have brought such beauty and joy to my home.

We found Creative Carpet in 2011 (after getting a new set of oak stairs installed by Henri Carrier…read morein Naugatuck, to replace a previously fully carpeted pine set). We have dogs, and need a runner for the dog's security running down the stairs. We realized the stairs looked so good it needed a runner that was just as nice. A nice oriental pattern maybe? However, we have what I now realize is "pie steps" at the bottom landing - so that meant we could only do non-patterned runner - and the oak treads were too nice to allow that. So, we found Creative Carpet, because they could do the apparently IMPSSIBLE: custom weave a patterned stair runner so it flawlessly meets the pattern at the angles of our stairs! This was in 2011 - I'm writing this now in 2018 (almost 2019) because we're cleaning carpets, and the stair runner has held up so well - you'd never know it was installed 7 years ago! John & Eileen were very easy to work with, design choices, scheduling, custom in-place installation, and we even picked out a hallway runner for the upstairs. We couldn't be happier - even 7 years later! Thanks John & Eileen!

DO NOT UTILIZE. A TRULY WRETCHED BUSINESS…read more We have used Kanters on three occasions. The first two times were fine, which is why we went back a third time. The third time was a disaster and they could not have been less accountable or less accommodating. In short, Kanters sent us the wrong colored LVT flooring, which even if we were willing to accept it, was defective and not capable of being installed. In any event, my wife and I were immediately willing to accept a different color LVT flooring that Kanters had in stock so that our construction was not set back weeks (we still had to pay our contractor for two days of work reserved to install this flooring, which now could not occur). Rather than doing what was necessary to immediately deliver this new LVT flooring, Kanters said it did not have staff to do that but eventually "agreed" to allow my wife and I to do all the manual labor ourselves (picking up 25 boxes weighing 60+ lbs each). Making it almost comical, Kanters had the gall to ask that we also bring back the 25 boxes of wrong colored and defective flooring so that they could get their money back from the manufacturer (which we did). Thus, my wife and I performed a half day of manual labor to correct Kanters' mistake because, apparently, they do not have adequate staff. When we asked for a credit, this is a quote from Brian Kanter: "These type of positions are the reasons that most small business no longer exists in our world. For some reason society has the belief that perfection exists and that a manufacture never makes a defective product or sends the wrong product. I wish that was the case but it's just a fantasy." Mr. Kanter went on to equate us transporting 50 boxes of extremely heavy flooring to the time he had to return a broken TV to Best Buy. In other words, don't expect that what you get will be what you ordered or even correct. In the end, the "credit" they offered was that they were not going to charge us extra for having to pick new carpet to match the different colored flooring (something he admitted they otherwise normally do). I think the moral is shop here at your own risk. If everything goes fine they are a run of the mill flooring company. They hardly answer their phones and take days to respond to emails. But, if things go poorly, you better expect that they will shift the blame to their manufacturer and/or to you. They will not be out of pocket - you will (just as we are).
