It's hard finding people who do it all: good work, good materials, reasonable pricing AND great communication. Also PATIENCE. And I need that because I ask a lot of questions and I worry a lot but Jayson never was impatient or abrupt or too busy. Here are pics from the remodeling of the small kitchen in my 75-year-old, 750 sq ft. home. Kitchen looks way bigger now and is MUCH more functional. Previously there was a lot of dead space. I wish I had before pix! I didn't think to take any. I do, however, have one pic of the old laundry area off the kitchen and so am including that.

Alicia took the time to really understand my situation - she called the warranty department on my behalf, helped me investigate which products were compatible, and tracked down the part I needed to order. She was knowledgable, friendly, and thorough. What stood out was how helpful she was and her willingness to go above-and-beyond. She researched compatibility across different Kohler products, got the warranty team involved when we needed answers, and stayed with it until we had the right part ordered. I've dealt with a lot of vendors during my remodel and this was hands down the best experience. Definitely ask for Alicia.

Came in on a Sunday to look at the shower systems. What a beautiful showroom!…read more I was greeted by Ozzy when I walked in. He was really nice and helpful. He showed me all the different options and their functions, including the awesome demo station where he was able to show me the pressure and functions in person which I thought was great! That's really nice that they have that in the showroom. Ozzy is very knowledgeable and he provided great customer service! Some of the pieces are not cheap but they offer a lifetime warranty which we really love. There were so many beautiful items to see and choose from. I also like the fact that you can mix a match faucet and knobs, etc. What a fun store!

They share a space with a florist that is open during the week, so I got confused and thought they opened during the week. They're not. The space is not huge, but it was fun to prowl around the different sections and find hidden treasures from Japan. The owner is really good about taking time to explain what each item is and the different uses, as well as care and handling. This place is such a huge contrast to shopping at Walmart. Made me think of a small town hardware shop that is the heart of the community with people stopping by to have keys made or knives sharpened or whatever random thing they need. These kinds of places are treasures! Definitely worth a visit and definitely worth supporting. Glad I did!

So I take my time selecting what I need versus what I want especially because I don't know when I will have the next chance to return. I easily spend several hundreds of dollars here buying my chisels and other carving hand tools. It's cool that the worker remembers who I am (excellent service). The owner himself takes the time to show me the various chisels that they have and you can tell just by listening to him talk the pride he has for the tools that he carries.

On Labor Day, September 7th, I stopped by Kim's Home Center with my Mom…read more This is a very old and well-known shopping center that has been around for a very long time. They carry all kinds of useful everyday products, many of which are imported from Korea. The store has two floors and sells everything from clothing and underwear to household items, beauty products, and many other practical things. My Mom has probably been here dozens of times, maybe even more than 100 times, over the years, and I've also been here many times myself. But surprisingly, this is my first time ever writing a review for this place! We went there this time because I was looking for a sports bra. My Mom highly recommended this store because she said Korean underwear tends to fit Korean body types better and is more comfortable. One of the things I really liked was that you can actually try on bras in the fitting room before buying them. The employee was very kind and helpful. She explained the different sizes and helped me choose which sports bra would work best for me. After trying on a few options in the fitting room, I found a sports bra that fit me perfectly and was very comfortable. I ended up buying two of them, one black and one beige. My Mom also wanted to buy a pair of underwear, so I purchased three items together. After that, we went downstairs to the first floor, where I bought a Korean hair-dye product that is apparently designed to be used almost like shampoo. I also ended up buying a pair of slippers to wear at home. My Mom also bought a Korean product called "Bal-eul Ssiseuja" ("발을 씻자") which I recommended to her. It has apparently become extremely popular in Korea recently. The funny thing is that I somehow ended up with three separate receipts that day! First, I paid separately for the sports bras. Then I bought the hair-dye product and checked out separately. Later, while looking around for household items, I suddenly thought, "Oh, should I buy a pair of slippers too?" So I bought those separately as well. This place is always extremely popular because they sell such a huge variety of useful everyday products and household items. Because of that, the parking lot is always very crowded. There is security staff helping direct cars in the parking lot, which is helpful. However, the lot is still pretty tight and busy. I'm especially not very good at parking in narrow parking spaces, so it was actually really convenient and relaxing to come with my Mom, who is an excellent driver and very good at parking. Overall, I had a really nice shopping trip here with my Mom. It's one of those places where you can always find something useful, even when you didn't originally plan on buying it!

Kim's Home Center is the OG Home Goods shop in Koreatown and I love it…read more They have a small parking lot which can fill up quickly but it's nice that they have one in KTown! Staff has always been friendly and kind, keeping in mind speaking Korean is helpful if you are looking for something specific. It's NOT necessary, just helpful. They have so many Korean focused products mostly in home goods like kitchen items, tons of bedding, rice cookers and kimchi fridges, but also things like makeup, skincare and clothes. Well priced house slippers with a lot of options! The entire second floor is electronics and more expensive goods, which I hear are not the best to buy here. I usually stick to cheaper items, more kitchen and cooking related needs at Kim's. They have a pretty strict return policy which I hear is a bit risky for more pricey items. I went in specifically for Makgeolli supplies and was so happy to find the pot & cups I needed, at nearly half the price of amazon! Support local stores instead of shopping online! I'm definitely a fan of Kim's Home Center and will come here for all my related needs in the future.

We wished we came here first! Which seems to be what everyone else feels as well: we heard another lady say the exact same thing in another aisle, and the first review I saw right now as I was coming here to post this also said the same. Anyway, this place is amazing!

From…read morethe very beginning, Lily was incredibly patient, friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating. We started this process with very little understanding of kitchen layouts, materials, cabinetry options, and design styles, but Lily took the time to thoroughly educate us and guide us through every decision. She was always responsive, supportive, and genuinely focused on helping us create the right kitchen for our home. Rather than trying to sell us everything available, Lily consistently recommended products that best fit our needs, budget, and design goals. Her honesty and professionalism gave us great confidence throughout the entire process. Cabinet City also offers a fantastic showroom with a wide variety of kitchen styles and designs, making it easy to find inspiration and customize a solution that works for your space. We will highly recommend Lily and the team at Cabinet City to all our friends that are interested in Kitchen remodel.

I met with several contractors and shared my vision with all of them. We ended up picking Prestige after reviewing all the quotes. Prestige wasn't the cheapest but he seemed the most experienced and knowledgeable in bringing that vision to life. It's true what they say - you get what you pay for!!! Amin and his team helped us navigate issues that came up including for example when I ended up not liking the original countertop I had picked before hiring Prestige. I told Amin about the issue and he brought me some samples that aligned with my vision and his design know-how and we were able to move forward without delay. When there was potential issues arising, Amin and his team quickly brought them up to our attention with recommendations. In the end, we love our new bathroom. It came in within budget and under the timeline. We will be hiring Prestige in the future as we continue our home renovations in the next few years. Thank you Prestige!
