I love the product and customer service. My mirrored unit was cracked in a move and Contempo was able to replace what I needed. The guys who came to do the repairs went above and beyond and now my unit is like new! read more

I couldn't be more pleased. After reading reviews about delivery & assembly by Ikea, I knew I needed another option. I mixed and matched a headboard from one item to a different bed. They were in touch with me every step of the way. The delivered and set up a storage, bed, headboard and a 5-door armoire unit in under one hour. They cleaned up after themselves and even helped me move a sofa! Moving into an apartment in NYC is usually fraught with mishaps, but this transaction with ContempoSpace was seamless. read more

Living in NYC our closet space is limited. We needed extra closet space and found Contempo Space online. Everything from ordering online to the delivery was flawless. The closet is exactly what we were looking for and you can customize it to match your decor. The delivery men were very professional and careful and unpacked everything and took away the trash. I would definitely purchase from them in the future!! read more

Excellent company to work with. Faster than expected delivery. The setup at the house was very professional and the guys respectfully wore masks. I would highly recommend this company and the product was better than expected. read more

The space between the drawers allows dust to settle inside. The finishes were not smooth- crown molding on the cabinet is wavy. I got white furniture and you can see everything little thing. read more

Excellent experience. Ordered Chelsea unit online, picked colors/finishes. Insurance provided. Delivered on time and setup in the apt. Great company read more

I bought 2 free standing closets form this company. Communication was great, delivery on time and product flawless. Perfect for expanding closet space. Attractive and totally practical. Great value for the money! read more

We had a beautiful entertainment center custom built by Contempo. They were very helpful and flexible with our desire to combine features and materials from multiple designs to meet our detailed specifications. Their custom units require using formats that they offer, so while we had many options, there are some limitations. The staff was terrific with design, order and delivery. The installer did an excellent job assembling the unit in our home. While not inexpensive, for custom made, the prices were much better than other high end design shops. read more

LOVE MY WARDROBE. Completely custom made and fitting perfectly in the space! The delivery men were dressed properly in uniform and all very kind!! read more

Needed a double wardrobe and super happy we ordered with Contempo Space. The furniture is well built and super sturdy. They were in contact with us from order to delivery, including accommodating special delivery conditions (helpful for us as companies can only deliver until a certain time in our building). I was also super grateful when they went above and beyond the day before delivery to make sure we received the item on the earlier side of the delivery window. The furniture is beautiful, so while it takes a few weeks to receive your item, glad we waited. read more

My daughter just received (after waiting over 5 weeks - from New Jersey to Manhattan? Really?). Custom TV console with cabinet and drawers/shelves (large) and it's a piece of utter CRAP! Drawers are warped. Looks like a beat up 'floor model'. Delivery people were in and out like their pants were on fire! Pointed out issues to them and their answer was, oh, it's just glue and dust! GLUE!!!??? Are you kidding me? Biggest 'bait and switch' operation going! Called immediately; spoke w/Jerry. No clue where this is going!! I want my money back!! read more

My wardrobe cabinets arrived today. i had ordered it based only on the photo on the website, so i was a bit nervous that perhaps it would not meet my expectations. No need to worry there furniture are sturdy and make from quality material. Everything about this order exceeded my expectations. www.contempospace.com read more

See all

Their site is professional, photos look great as do the floor samples when you visit the showroom. On top of that, Gary the salesguy seems like a great guy. Post-delivery impression is a polar opposite: 1. First about quality (my purchase was Alta Extra Tall, supposedly US-made out of Italian materials). a. Material: regular MDF, no different from what I saw in lumber yards. Paint/veneer chips off easily. b. Workmanship: flimsy - - pieces misaligned, which was blamed on the uneven floor, but in my book solid construction would not cause joints to come apart. Drawers loose and shaky - actually worse than my $30 Ikea drawers. When first delivered, mirror fronts were cut and glued unevenly, but those were thankfully replaced because I identified the issue during delivery. Drawers I was told were normal. But later on I saw the top edges of the doors are unpainted/unveneered, so the raw MDF is visible from the front. 2. Post-delivery support: what turned me off the most is when I followed up the door issue with an email about the loose drawers I was immediately offered a refund less $300 delivery fee. Now I dont know if one should consider it a good or a bad thing, but I would not order a huge wardrobe unless I have a need for one, so why would I just let is go at a $300 loss? Must also be noted that this email with refund offer was not very nice. 3. Lastly, upon purchase Gary the salesguy promised a matching 106"x30" panel for (quoting): "$50-75, but no more than $100". Which post-purchase turned into "I must have misunderstood, the best I can do is $200". Verdict: Worst $1,679 I've ever spent. PS Ironically, the only good review here was left before the product was even delivered. read more

Save your money for an honest, trustworthy company. Very long story short, my husband and I saved for a year to purchase an entertainment center to be delivered to Chicago. We wanted to support an American company and get a quality piece. Three months after our order, it was delivered. During the delivery, the driver was negligent and hit a water pipe in our condo's building. The driver then dropped off our piece in our unit and left angry. We were told over the phone that they would handle the damage. They then spent months denying liability. They took every possible angle to avoid filing an insurance claim, therefore sticking my husband and I with a $3,000 bill! They claimed that our up to code building had misleading signage, but there have been no other complaints on this matter and hundreds of deliveries. The product we ordered does not hold up to its price. It looks lovely but after a few months, the edges of the cabinets show aging. The piece also does not have the durability you'd expect for the cost. Many of our friends assume we purchased it at IKEA because it is something you could find there. Save yourself the stress and find a quality business. read more

I was looking for storage and a bed. We moved to a much smaller bedroom with two walk-in closets, and this seemed perfect. After a flawless installation by two professionals who were very nice, the furniture exceeded our expectations. Fit perfect and looked nicer than we thought it would be. Thank you to Gary and the install team! read more

Works well. I ordered the one of the narrow alto wardrobes. It's sturdy though I think it could have used another coat of paint on the outside. I just loved that it came fully assembled. The delivery guys put the wardrobe where I requested unwrapped it and took the wrapping with them. I'm very happy and recommend contempo space! read more

Finally, we purchased our very own home in downtown Jersey City, but with a toddler in tow we needed a creative solution to make the living room work for both adults and kids. Contempo's entertainment unit turned out to be the perfect solution. From start to finish the customer service we received was incredible. We were able to design the perfect and attractive storage solution incorporating our 70 inch television, a small home office and plenty of deep drawers for toy storage. Gary provided incredible customer service throughout the design and selection process. Our contractor confirmed that the Italian melamine they use is a quality product. Delivery of the unit to Jersey City was timely and hassle-free, however we did need to make some effort to level out the unit as our floors are uneven. This was important as otherwise the drawers and cabinets did not line up perfectly which ruins the whole look of this modern product. The Contempo installation folks stayed for an extra 20 minutes to install 6 shims across the wall unit. read more

Customize furniture at an affordable price! From the start they were amazing, from sales, to placing the order to delivery... everything about this company is amazing, very professional. We will definitely recommend them to all our friends and family. Looking forward to doing our son's room, I know I can count on them to find furniture that fits his small room. read more

We needed some storage solutions that will not be prohibitively expensive: A wardrobe closet, a bench with drawers and a mud room unit. We live in Manhattan. Since their standard products did not exactly fit our needs, we schlepped over there on a summer weekend (after setting up and appointment) and found a very capable salesperson (Gary) that helped us throught the various options and combination. Over the following week, they sent us the diagrams that we were asked to sign off on electronically. We have made a couple of changes since but Gary was always patience and professional. We have not received the product yet so no final rating - but so far the experience has been very good . read more

We needed a lot of extra clothing storage space for our apartment here in NYC. I decided to order four wardrobe units from Contempo (the most basic ones) as well as some hanging rods. Given other options, their prices for the actual wardrobe units were reasonable. While delivery charges are excessive in my opinion ($50 unit - $200 total), items were delivered as promised within a 4-hour window and set up by the guys without a hitch. We are satisfied with the quality thus far, and they actually look good. Given our needs, this was a really good solution. To give you some idea of the timeline from order to production to delivery - the order was placed near the end of February and was delivered second week of April. read more

What a pleasure doing business with Gary. We live in Brooklyn (where they deliver for no charge) and were sent several color samples for a small fee, refundable upon order. We ordered a cleverly-designed Davidson wall unit with a nice free standing desk "tucked in" over the storage arch, a small coordinating cube to our printer one, and a tv table that PERFECTLY matched our impossible-to-match-until-now cobalt blue-front bedroom furniture. Everything was ready weeks before they/we anticipated, delivery went smoothly, and quality seems excellent for the price. I can't understand where the pccasopma; bad reviews on Yelp come from. I'm not saying that some people couldn't have had a bad experience or breakdown in communication, but that was the opposite of our experience. Particularly when I look at my new Davidson Wall unit, I breathe a sigh of calmness. It has transformed our cluttered living space into one of serenity, organization, and functionality. Silly to imagine that furniture can make such a difference, but this easy purchase process and wonderful end result has never been matched in our prior furniture purchase experience. So, if you are nervous about placing an order online or over the phone, don't be. This is one very happy customer of Contempo Space, enjoying my new furniture in Brooklyn. read more

My 2 armoires are gorgeous!!! I love that I designed them myself!!! The are so big and roomy on the inside, I have to think of things to store in them. Contempo Space kept in touch with me from the day I ordered till after delivery; they quickly and easily complied with the demands of my building and managing agent; delivery was on time, fast and clean with 3 men to do the job. The wrong door handles were delivered, but it was reported immediately, I was contacted immediately and I know the right handles will be delivered and installed as soon as practicable (for me; they had already given me a date, but it was not convenient, and they will give me another date so I can accept the delivery). I am very happy with the company, the delivery and especially the furniture!!! Thank you!!!! read more

Since I live in Palm Beach County, Florida, and Contempo Space is located 1,200 miles away -- in Passaic, New Jersey -- I was a little apprehensive about using their service to custom-build an entertainment center for my home. However, because I had read so many wonderful reviews about their workmanship, I decided to take a chance. And from the very first moment that I spoke to Gary in their design department, I knew that I had made a good decision. He was a pleasure to deal with, and was extremely helpful with the implementation of the design. From that day forward --- right up to delivery and installation of my furniture this past week -- it has been an incredibly wonderful experience. (#1 beautiful design and impeccable workmanship ... #2 their customer service personnel is not only incredibly efficient, but "as sweet as can be"... #3 their delivery team showed up Right On Time, and did a meticulous job on the installation. Suffice it to say that I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this company. (And whoever has been to my home this past week and has seen my entertainment center... is in full agreement.) Ruby B. Lake Worth, Florida read more

We ordered. The space was tight so we had them come out to measure. Took 9 weeks once we gave them half the $$. I like the idea behind the product but Contempo is not interested in service nor do they care about quality. The bookshelves are not full but already sagging. And the surface is chipped and cracked around the manufacturer-drilled shelf support holes as well as holes drilled by the guys who came to install the units. If you use them, make sure you go over EVERY DETAIL down to the last 1/16 of an inch. Apparently, just because they drew details for one side of a wall unit, doesn't mean they'll use the same specs for the otherside. We can't properly open the doors because they installed door hinges that don't allow the doors to open wide enough. If you're plannng to use a unit as a room divider, better make sure the specs say all sides will have your chosen surface--ours have white particle board on backs and tops. Not what we expected--in quality or service. Shame on them. read more

I purchased an armoire thinking it was a decent price and looked nice online but received the item and it is extremely flimsy, the white looks dirty, the panels are not flushed, and for $1,500 I could've gotten something A LOT nicer. When I called their customer service for help and spoke to the manager Jerry Singer, I was told there is nothing they would do to help me. And even if they were to help (after extensive inspection of my claim) I would have to pay the labor fees, shipping fees, restocking fees, and a couple of other fees which I imagine would amount to about the same price as the furniture piece itself. What a horrible company. This is my first review on yelp and it's because I've never had such a terrible experience before. Do not use them. read more

My apologies in advance for my rudeness but I don't think I could be nearly as rude as the SOB was that I spoke to on earlier the phone this morning. For months now I have been searching for the perfect furniture for my bedroom. I found the perfect wardrobe wall unit and I was willing to pay for whatever the cost of shipping... about 2 months ago I started to make my purchase online, it stated that I needed to call the 800 number to get an estimate for shipping. I knew this company was in NJ and I knew that shipping would be costly. I called and left a message (due to 3 hr time difference). I stated I live in California and wanted to know the cost of shipping. No return call. A week later I decided to go back on their website to do a Live Chat. I was able to connect to the Chat but no one responded on the other end. So I decided to type that I'm interested in making a purchase and want to know the shipping cost and left my email address. No email and no response. So 6-7 weeks later I started to wonder if they were still in business.... I knew they had weather issues so today I called the 800 number again. I get an answer on the first ring and this is how our conversation went: Worker: "contempo space...." Me: "ohhh hello. is your company still in business?" (which was a stupid question because he did answer with the company name) Worker: "aaaahhhhh ya....... we've been open for 50 years." (like DUHHHH) Me: "okay well I was just wondering because I was waiting for a return call or an email and I never go a response." Worker: "response for what?" Me: "Shipping cost. I had to call and get an estimate on the shipping cost" Worker: "to where? what's your name?" Me: "it's joey" Worker: "well you emailed me your email wrong. You had gmial and it's gmail. I just resent it and you should have it now" Me: "ummm I don't have a gmail account. It's not...." (he cut me off) Worker: "what do you need" Me: "well I called a few months ago and never received a return call. I just wanted to know how much shipping is to California" Worker: "we don't ship to California" Me: "oh okay. it would...." (he cut me off) Worker: "also during the snow storms we were..." (I cut him off) Me: "I called and wanted to LIVE chat with someone way before the storms hit. It would have just been nice to have someone get back to me that's all" Worker: "we don't ship to California" Me: "Thank you for that information" (and hung up) My reason to want to purchase from this company is because I can't find a ward robe wall unit like what they make and also it's AMERICAN MADE and I support that. But after that ordeal, he was an AMERICAN MADE JERK. People get better customer service from outsourced companies . He never ever apologized and kept finding excuses to why I never received a call back. One more thing.... I don't yelp and have never yelped before. I registered on yelp just to voice my opinion about this company because they truly disappointed me. read more

I ordered a wardrobe. It is absolutely beautiful, well made and just what I wanted for a price I could keep in my budget. Good quality. The workmen were courteous and neat. The only dissatisfaction comes from the delivery timing. I would have like to have known that my piece wouldn't be delivered until they had enough stuff to make it worthwhile to come out. When the delivery was scheduled, the truck broke down and they couldn't come out on that day. Which was an issue because we were going on vacation. The delivery couldn't be rescheduled for 4 weeks. So all in all, I waited from April, when I placed my order, until July when it was finally installed. There was no 6-8 weeks from the time the order was placed. I will probably use this company again if needed. The work was quality, but I will remain skeptical of the delivery times. read more

I needed a server for my dining room and contacted contempo space. I was in contact with a designer who customized and worked with me in order to make sure I was happy with my order. They were very reliable, answered my comments and questions very quickly and made sure I was happy with the design before I placed my order. They also sent me sample colors so I was able to make sure it would look good in the room. The delivery process was also very clear and they allowed me to choose my delivery date and time. I work and needed to make sure I would be around. They suggested a date for delivery and since I was not able to make that date, they accommodated my schedule and changed the delivery date. For delivery, they called me a half hour before they came so I did not have to sit home all morning waiting. The delivery was very quick, easy, and they cleaned up after they were done. I was very happy and satisfied with my service. read more

I am glad I did not read the reviews before I bought my wall unit here. I am amazed at the low reviews. My experience was five star. I went to the showroom and Gary could not have been more helpful. After we picked the unit we wanted I spoke with Gary and we customized some of it. The top bridge section is usually closed with doors. I need a place for my QE2 model so that was left opened and an additioal LED light was added. The delivery was excellent. The sections were wrapped very well and the three man crew got it together lickty split and took all the wrappings with them. The unit is very solid and seems like it would last decades. My 55" TV looks great mounted into the unit. I also bought a matching dresser and that looks great. I would HIGHLY recommend Contempo Space. read more

Contempo Space is awesome! Our Alta Wardrobe Closet (2 door) and Alta Storage Topper came out exactly as I'd hoped. The representative I contacted (I believe his name was Danny) answered all of my questions, walked me through the best handles to choose for a mirrored door, and even made a small, nonstandard customization change for me for free (I requested that the built-in hangrod not be included, since I wanted to use only the separate, adjustable hangrod instead). The wardrobe is high quality and the mirrored fronts are sleek and gorgeous. The mirrors are not at all warped. Given the tight space in our apartment, I really could not afford the 3" margin of error that they recommend planning for, and I just went for it. I'm so glad I did because the dimensions were EXACTLY as described. (Accurate dimensions were one of our most important considerations, given our space). Delivery was very easy and the delivery person explained to me how to safely move the wardrobe if I ever need to. Yes, you will pay more than for an Ikea (or similar) wardrobe, but in this case I truly felt that the additional cost was worth the assembly, ease of customization and gorgeous finished product. I should add that delivery and setup was very affordable, given that we live in the NJ area close to Contempo Space (I paid more to have a mattress delivered). read more

Terrible customer service by Jerry Singer. A few days after I received my wardrobe, one of the cabinet doors dropped down and became uneven and the mirror in front chipped, making it difficult to open the drawer underneath it. The repair person finally came today to replace the chipped front cabinet mirror panel - 30 minutes after he left, the entire mirror fell off the cabinet onto the floor, since it had not been properly attached (once it came down I saw that it had just been attached with flimsy, two-sided tape). I called customer service to ask if the delivery person could return today since I had taken the day off and arranged my work schedule to have this done, and I was shocked by how rude, unapologetic and unaccommodating Jerry was during this process. Since this is a brand new wardrobe that broke just days after delivery and has been unusable, I asked for a refund and Jerry said that was not possible at this point. I deeply regret this purchase and do not recommend you buy from Contempo Space, unless you want frustration, aggravation and disappointment. read more

What a scam! Hi everyone.. Let me start off by saying that the wood that contempo space uses is NOT REAL WOOD. My husband is very handy and knows wood from a-z. The only reason we agreed to buy a bed set from them is because of storage space and of course them promising us the world. The wood is actually in fact compressed wood with formica. It's a scam! I was making my bed the other day (king size) and I went to put the mattress down after putting my sheet on it and there it went.. The side piece literally cracked and broke in half! We paid $5,000 for that bed set! I could of gotten a gorgeous Italian marble set for that price! What a disgusting disgrace! DO NOT BUY THIS FURNITURE YOU WILL REGRET IT. Very cheap and not worth the money!! And also I worked with a man named Gary. He thought he knew it all and was not honest and got what he wanted which was a large sale. Horrible product. Horrible price. Horrible customer service! Just horrible! Luckily I have learned from this mistake for future furniture shopping. read more

I was looking for a unique wide screen TV stand for our recently renovated family room. I found Contempo Space by googling "unique TV stands." It only took minutes for me to find the absolutely perfect stand; the color choices were wonderful and chose a color that I thought would be perfect. It's always a little uncomfortable to purchase furniture that you can't physically see in person or touch. Five weeks later it was delivered. I live in the Carolinas and it was delivered from New Jersey. It was more than worth the wait. It is absolutely breathtaking. The exquisite design and workmanship are beautiful. It is worth every cent I paid and much more. Delivery was flawless and the drivers kept us informed of their schedule so that we could still enjoy the Memorial Day holiday while waiting for our product to be delivered. The two gentlemen were professional and very careful while in the house. I'm very pleased and wouldn't hesitate to purchase a product again. read more
