In 2020 we had Star Mark Kitchen Cabinets installed. The cabinets have MDF inserts. We were told at the time the inserts were made of plywood. The quality and durability of the cabinets are horrible. The twenty year old cabinets we replaced actually held up better than the five year old Star Mark Kitchen Cabinets. We just wanted a different style. You can go to Home Depot or Lowes and buy a better quality cabinet vs the garbage from Star Mark. The cost from Consumers to replace a door or panel is ridiculously high. Not worth the cost. I've learned my lesson. Save your time and money and buy quality cabinets from a different establishment. Shame on Consumers for selling such Low quality cabinets. read more

I had an very good experience with the design expert at Consumers, Daniel Bollinger. He was knowledgeable, courteous and professional. He took great pains to explain each option and offered sound advise. read more

I worked with Tom to find my gorgeous and unique blue/green vanity and he was wonderful. The vanity arrived and it was beautiful but there was an issue with the shelf inside. Tom called the manufacturer and they are sending a new one at no cost. Overall a wonderful experience and a beautiful piece. read more

We had purchased a kitchen quite awhile ago. Over the years a couple of door fronts became marked up through regular wear and tear. We came back to Consumers to see if there was anything we can do. Joseph Thomas was incredibly helpful searching back through the store's records and finding our original plans and specs. He contacted the company and got them to recut our pattern. It took awhile but his persistence was what got the job done. As they say he went the extra mile, but to us Joeseph went the extra 10 miles! Thankyou Joseph for your perseverance! read more

I recently worked with Daniel B at the Franklin Square showroom and WOW! He was amazing from start to finish. He was professional, responsive and accommodating with everything. He went above and beyond to help solve every issue. This is the second kitchen I have done with the Franklin Square showroom and I also used them for my bathroom vanities. I will certainly use them again and would definitely recommend! read more

UPDATE: once again, parts of my order came damaged and warped. I asked to speak to a manager (AGAIN) on Saturday.... it is now Tuesday and I haven't heard peep. Also, I am assuming this "James B." person who keeps writing comments isn't a real person. DO NOT BUY FROM CONSUMER KITCHEN AND BATH IN EAST MEADOW!!! read more

The variety of high quality, well-priced options coupled with its reliability, makes Consumers Kitchen and Baths a first rate business. I was fortunate (blessed, really) to work with Tom Dubensky - an absolute gem in the company crown! He was highly recommended by a friend and I understood why from the start. Tom's expertise, integrity and patience are a winning combination. He helped me stay on budget without sacrificing style or lowering my standards. I now join his long list of satisfied customers. read more

My cabinets were suppose to be sugar white...they sent me off white. Said tough..that's what you ordered. We had to change the floors, backsplash, counter tops etc. NEVER EVER buy anything from them again. Ever. read more

Division Manager: Phil Bedry Assistant Manager: Tom Dubensky- VERY unprofessional Accredited designer: Charles Herbert BAD salesman On February 4, 2020 we made a purchase for a custom bathroom vanity, sink, quartz countertop, and bathtub totaling $5,285.57. We left with the impression that we would receive the items listed above via delivery in 3 weeks time, starting with a first delivery of the bathtub on February 27, 2020. To our surprise there was no delivery made that day. We went to to showroom to see why the delivery was not made and Charles Herbert told us that the three week period was actually for the delivery of the tub to consumers warehouse. We finally received the tub on March 3, 2020. We still had no finalized delivery date of the other items listed above. We waited another two weeks and they told us the remaining items would be delivered sometime around April 8, 2020. After much back and forth hassle with Tom Dubensky and Phil Bedry over the phone they confirmed delivery of the remainder items for April 12, 2020. April 12 the delivery comes and it has everything except the quartz countertop. We went back to consumers and spoke to assistant manager, Tom Dubensky. He had no words of apology for the item being missing and went on to place blame on us while throwing his coworker Charles Herbert under the bus by stating we should have been informed that we would receive an email or phone call from a separate company that does the countertops within 1-2 weeks of placing the order. We checked our emails and there was no communication from such company. As they were about to close that day, Tom stated that he could not do anything personally because he had no power to do so and the countertop company is closed on the weekends. He insisted that we would have to wait for Phil on the next Tuesday to get further information regarding our missing item. It been two and a half months and out bathroom still is jot complete because we thought we were working with a professional company. Clearly we were mistaken. Don't make the mistake we made of trusting this unprofessional company! read more

Consumers Kitchens & Baths - Delivered vanity with no countertop!!! - Kitchen & Bath Near Me - East Meadow, New York

I am writing an update to a previous negative review as the company has tried to make amends. Following writing these reviews, they did return my email and agreed to pay for the cost of the garbage can and apologized for the 'miscommunication' with the manager. They are trying to rush the correct garbage pail and have also sent a lovely edible arrangement basket to show their sincere apologies. I do appreciate all their efforts and just wish it didn't take getting to this point to do the right thing. We do continue to enjoy the rest of the cabinets and hope that they have learned from their mistakes and moving forward this would not happen to customers in the future. Would I order again? I probably would. I don't think they would make the same mistake twice and there is a genuine interest in making things right. I cannot ask for much more than that as a customer. read more

I recently visited the showroom to purchase a replacement bathroom vanity/sink and coordinating mirror. I took a number and after waiting about 20 minutes for my number to be called, was greeted by a design consultant - Thomas Dubensky. He was knowledgeable and patient. He answered my questions and then placed the order and indicated that the mirror was on back-order and should be available within 2-3 weeks. This was no problem for me. Happy to report that Consumers Kitchen & Bath contacted me by phone during the week and said that the order was complete. I scheduled the delivery and the order was delivered in perfect condition yesterday (Saturday). It took less than a week for me to receive my order from the time I ordered and paid for it! BTW, Thomas Dubensky was kind enough to facilitate me getting replacement parts for a Kraftmaid vanity I purchased 13 years ago! He furnished me with a copy of the invoice and details for me to contact the manufacturer to obtain replacement parts for the soft close drawers that no longer soft close. read more

They don't stand by their products or contractors. I received a defective item and wouldn't assist in rectifying the situation. My contractor won't ever use them again. read more

We just finished our whole house renovation in Woodbury NY. My contractor suggested I take a look through Consumers Kitchen and Bath to get some ideas on style and design. We are so HAPPY we did! Our kitchen and bath design consultant Gwynn was FANTASTIC! She patiently worked with me from the beginning to the end of both our kitchen, and 3 bathroom renovations. She is extremely knowledgeable with the quality of the cabinets, the functionality of how her customer's kitchen should operate and her eye for design. Also Gwynn coordinated and resolved any issues with the contractor with regard to roughing concerns. I could have never managed this huge project without her guidance and help. read more

Consumers Kitchens & Baths - Thank you Gwynn for making my kitchen dream come to life! - Kitchen & Bath Near Me - East Meadow, New York

Purchased a vanity and sink and the person who helped us didn't measure properly and the drawers didn't fit due to a measuring error. They admitted that it was their fault. We had to reorder the top and even though they admitted it was their fault they'll do little or nothing to reduce the price. They just didn't care. Extremely disappointed and wouldn't not recommend them to anyone. read more

Have worked with Tom at Consumers on 2 kitchens in the last 6 years (one for a flip, one for my own home) and he was awesome! Designing a kitchen is more involved than you might think (so many styles, colors, finishes, details) so you need someone who is knowledgeable and *patient* in the process. Consumers has cabinets at every price point and they have pretty flexible hours. Great experience overall. read more

Buyer beware! Consumers is taking orders for cabinets and hefty deposits and not delivering the product. I ordered a kitchen's worth of cabinets in April which were promised within 2 weeks. It is now the middle of June, and I still am without cabinets. There is no communication, no updates and ZERO customer service. The Franklin Square store is the WORST! Buy elsewhere and save yourself the stress! read more

Tom Dubensky, of East Meadow Consumers Kitchens and Baths worked with me in the installation of a custom bathroom vanity. I had several concerns and he was able to address all of them. His suggestions and expertise were greatly appreciated. I made several changes to my original order and Tom met them with patience, and promptly answered my emails and calls. He followed up at the conclusion of the project and I was grateful for the time he extended. read more

After purchasing our Starmark kitchen cabinets, we went back three years later to order a bathroom vanity from our favorite customer representative/designer, Tom Dubensky. We couldn't be happier. Tom is knowledgeable and so pleasant to work with. The cabinets a new vanity are top quality and should bring us many years of good use and happiness. Give Tom a call at 631-563-3200 x1513 read more

Im standing outside the store and writing this review, my wife and i just walked into the store in east meadow and saw three representative one was on the phone the other two did not even acknowledge us we walked looking at shower doors and no one even tried to assist us my wife eventually walked over to a lady and asked for assitance and she made us feel like we didn't belong she quickly dismissed us and walked back over to her desk. Go somewhere else to spend your money you're not welcome at this store. read more

Terrible customer service once you buy their cabinets. It is too sales oriented leaving you frustrated and uninformed every time you call with a service question. I've waited over three weeks for my door knobs for my cabinets to come in. read more

dario manfredi i must tell you my wife and i went to several kitchen and bath places looking for kitchen cabinets for our new home we finally went to consumers kitchen and bath in east meadow ny and had the good fortune of meeting a sales consultant whose name was Jeff grossman he was amazing we explained what we wanted to do and he patiently worked through the options Amazing thing was there was no sales pressure He treated us with so much patience and we always felt he had our interests in heart I recommend anyone looking for kitchen and bath to go to Jeff Grossman you will not be disappointed read more

My husband & I began renovating our new house & stopped by Consumers one night. Tom helped us and designed a gorgeous kitchen entertaining area. We wound up ordering the entire project based on his designs & we couldn't be happier. I never would have picked what we did if we didn't have Tom's design input. We get compliments on it every time we entertain. We already plan on returning for Tom's help for our next projects. read more

I looked around at a lot of different places to buy my cabinets and finally decided on Consumers for one reason only - the salesman that first helped me (Thomas Dubensky). He spent hours with me finding the best design plan out there. He was very patient and understanding and made every last change and request I could think of until I was satisfied. We went back and forth a million times to find the perfect design at a price I was very happy with. Although their vendor was VERY slow - he was very on top of giving me status updates. I did find it difficult to contact him by phone, however e-mail wound up being the best was for us to communicate. He made a very long and difficult process as easy as possible and I would highly recommend working with him. I am in love with both my cabinets and my counter top which I purchased from consumers (at the best price I could possibly find). The only thing I was disappointed in was how the company handles any problems. One of my cabinets came broken and I am still waiting for parts 6 weeks later, AND I was told I need to fix the broken roll out drawer MYSELF (like I have any idea how to do that). The company SHOULD send a representative to make sure my cabinet is properly fixed. Overall I would say I had a pleasurable experience, but I would ONLY work with Thomas in the future. The other salesmen were rude and not nearly as knowledgeable as Thomas. He is by far the best salesman there. read more

Awesome Experience!!! Kevin Maher was outstanding in helping us putting all the details together in selecting, ordering and staging the delivery. The Bertch cabinet arrived just as we ordered it. The color, knobs & trim are going to blend and match very well with the new floor we are in process of having installed. The counter top is a perfect match to complement the base and Kohler faucet we slected to adorn the top of the vanity Thank you!!! read more

We went into the E Meadow store approx. 2 years ago. At that time spoke with a v nice salesman who advised that he would sent someone to measure kitchen etc. Someone came did measuring. We didn't hear back from salesperson so about 3 months later tried to contact him and nobody knew who he was?? We were both busy so put project on back burner for about six months, then again tried to contact salesperson (who never called us back). Finally after being sent from this store to another to speak to someone, found out he had left. I asked if they still had our plans-was told yes and I must should in to the store to review. I then did so and found (what other reviews have said), one salesperson sitting at a desk who refused to acknowledge me, then when I asked re estimate plans said yes, they had them but he would not discuss until I had chosen all of my cabinetry. I had wanted to look at the plan first but he seemed to be on a personal phone call, so didn't want to bother speaking to me. I walked out and cannot imagine how much business this company loses due to this type of attitude (noted on other reviews also). The first salesperson seemed ok but then just disappeared and nobody bothered to follow up with me. Would not bother with this store again. Going to Home Depot or Lowes. read more

I can't say enough about My designer Gwynn at the east meadow Consumers ! She helped with 2 kitchen and 4 bathrooms and it was all perfection !! I've remodeled several times in my life and this was the best experience. She is patient, knowledgeable and truly knows what she is doing. I highly recommend them to anyone doing a big or small project ! The choices and selections are amazing ! read more

I ordered a complete kitchen from the East Meadow store this past spring and for the most part I am satisfied with everything. The salesman was knowledgeable and the cabinets were of the quailty I expected .The one thing that has me writing this review is the fact that there was one mistake with the order and I have been waiting four plus weeks for them to correct it and as of this writing I am still waiting (Aug 25 14). I have called several times to try to get it corrected .Their basic answer is always the same -you will get it as soon as we get it .I have asked them to try and expedite it so I can finish the kitchen .They got their money and could care less if the job gets done or not and could care less If I am a satisfied customer. I would not use them again for the way they handled this problem and I still have two bathrooms to do. read more

Went to East Meadow store on April 6th and ordered 4 cabinets for $4,211.41. Came back on April 10 to change order and due to changes made, we cut $900 off price and it came to $3,334.45. Order was processed. Then I got a letter on May 22nd stating my cabinets where ready and the amount was $3,775.20 or about $440 higher than agreed price. Told salesman to put delivery on hold until you fix mistake. Two weeks later I had to call salesman to find out what's going on and apparently NOTHING was going on and he said he was still waiting for manager to fix problem. On July 2nd we finally agreed to a $100 rebate and I agreed out of frustration. July 6th cabinets arrived but had a broken header panel and one cabinet was the wrong color. Another round of back and forth and a replacement came Aug 25th. THE WRONG COLOR AGAIN! Now manager at East Meadow location had to call Starmark Corp. And send reps to my home. That took 4 weeks and they took my wrong color cabinet and said two weeks I should get a call from Holbrook Consumers head office for delivery. That was 5 weeks ago so I just call the Holbrook office for information and talk to a manager (November 11th) and got a manager who said they would call me right back and that was two hours ago! Don't make the same mistake I did. Avoid this place at all costs! They are expensive and the worse costumer service ever. I've been nice and patient with undertrained staff and still not one person has said sorry or we'll take a few hundred off price because of all the screw UPS. Now, I'll give them two more weeks until I go to BBB and ask for refund. Big waste of time. Ps, Nothing against manager or staff, actual most seem very nice people but no company this size should be mishandling orders for months on end and screwing consumers. The owners or any managers with any say so are non existent. If your order is wrong and they have your money, good luck. Update: I forgot to mention that my order was 1" too high and I have to cut all cabinets. The salesman messed up and I confirmed paperwork to process order. I take some blame in that because apparently I should know hoe to read a cabinet maker sheet. Anyway, seems Consumers has passed me on to Starmark to avoid any work. A Starmark rep called me today to (because I complained to head office yesterday), to let me know I should get the correct color cabinet and replacement header in two to three weeks. I told them that their reps said it would take two weeks back 4 weeks ago to which he responded by saying, that the color was difficult to match. REALLY? The color that you make is hard to match?? Whatever. I believe they never processed the order because nobody from consumers was on top of it but I can't prove that. I'll keep all updated. read more

The absolute worst place to deal with. Went TWICE on different days during the week. And the sales people 1 couldn't get up to greet us. 2 didn't even bother to ask my wife and I if we needed help. Finally when we asked if they could help us. The one jerk salesman said he was busy and to ask another guy. Good job by him. He let a full kitchen and 2 bathrooms walk out the door. Obviously he's well off and him and his company doesn't need my business. read more

After going to their sister store furnikit many years ago and having a good experience I decided to try consumers for a new vanity and top for my bathroom. Kevin was not very enthusiastic to help me. You can tell he didn't want to deal with a small job...geez it wasn't like the store was even busy. They only will come measure for kitchens...not bathrooms. I guess I am not worth your time and you lost out in the chance for my future kitchen renovation. Ohh and he didn't even ask my name at any point through NY uncomfortable stay to get s price quote. Maybe I look poor or unassumung but can guarantee I make twice as much money as Kevin ever will with his pig attitude. Thanks Consumers for wasting my Friday evening. read more

In rebuttal to the negative reviews, I'd like to say this place is great! The showroom has SO many items to view and select from. Way more brands/styles than the home centers. My wife and I appreciated the fact that we could browse as much as we wanted without being bothered, or wasting a salesperson's time. A recording plays while you visit the showroom instructing you how to obtain assistance for either bathrooms or kitchens, should you desire. read more

My salesperson matthew genova was extremely helpful. From start to finish matthew helped me design my beautiful dream kitchen. He was professional, patient and had numerous suggestions . I would highly reccomend him to anyone looking to remodel their kitchen or bath. read more

Terrible experience. Salesman (Kevin Maher) was totally uninterested in helping us with the purchase of a bathroom vanity, sink, stone top,, and mirror. He initially spoke with us, then said he had to help another customer. We waited over an hour, and when he finally came to help us, after less than five minutes, in mid-sentence, he left us to talk to a friend who came into the store. We were prepared to make the purchase that evening, but will now use a different company due to the way we were treated. read more

I had problems with them 12 years ago,,And I guess I am a glutton for punishment ,Customers service sucks, When I got granite top it was Damaged on top,but they tried to hide it with some type of filler,so contractor didn't notice until it was placed on top, not connected,I went to get even exchange the guy even acted like he was a tough guy, I am not the only one that has complained about this dump. Go to lowes or home depot, They stand by there products. read more

What a wonderful experience for us, gave us our space to look around as much as we needed. Salespeople were walking around letting us know they were there if we had any questions. Even though I changed my mind a lot, Meri was very accomodating. As all home improvement projects don't go smoothly, Consumers Kitchens and Baths were always a phone call away (even on weekends). When Meri wasn't available, her co-workers were able to assist without hesitation. Our contractor has brought his other customers to our home to look at the kitchen and they ask us where we bought our kitchen cabinets, we proudly say "Consumers Kitchens and Baths"! read more

Based on numerous negative reviews I was leery but decided to see for myself. My wife and I spoke to a salesman. After looking at options, he scheduled us for the following week to look at a detailed plan. My wife and I rearranged our schedules to be there. The salesman didn't show up to work and didn't tell anyone he had an appointment. Another salesman apologized and we started to leave. Then I thought we could ask THAT salesman to help. We went back in the store and I couldn't find him. I went up to a different salesman at the next desk and said, "Excuse me. Do you know where the gentleman is that was sitting here?" His response, "I don't know. Somewhere in the store." REALLY? Not, "I will find him" "I will page him," etc. It's a showroom. It's a SALES FLOOR. If the sales force is a no show or don't want to life a finger for a potential customer....NO WAY. I wouldn't go in there if there gave kitchens away. My experience only served to reinforce the dozens of negative reviews I have seen on this company. read more
