Freedom Outdoor Kitchens

Let me start saying that we had a first good impression when we were at the store. We ended up…read morepurchasing all our outdoor furniture with them. We have all the furniture under a covered lanai and within 6 months enjoying our patio, we noticed the cushions' covers started discoloring. Our navy blue covers started changing into white. When I called the store and spoke to the manager on duty, I was told that she did not have any power to do anything, but instead gave me the name and phone number from the owner named Jhonny, who is based in Miami. When I spoke to Jhonny, his answer to the issue was: " I do not recommend buying the navy blue color covers because they always have the discoloration problem". Great answer from the owner, maybe they should had told me that at the store when I bought it. I asked for new covers, as my furniture were not only 6 months old, but his customer service answer was: " please read your bill again, as cushions' covers are not part of the warranty. I can sell you new ones a discounted price". We have recommend this store to 2 other friends, who had the same issue and when I mentioned it to Jhonny, his answer was: "have them calling me, not the store". I told him I would not recommend his business to anyone, due to quality of his product and TERRIBLE customer service. It seemed like he did not care about it. Conclusion: Stay AWAY from this place!!!

I am moving to the Orlando area and recently bought a new house where I needed to purchase a nice…read moreset of wicker patio furniture and a patio dining set. It was a significant purchase, so I wanted to check out some styles in store before I bought. I found Patio Furniture Emporium on google, so I thought I'd check them out. The hours posted online showed them being open until 7pm. I drove to the location, and when I got there the store was dark. A small sign on the door said "Closed today, call XXX-XXX-XXXX with questions." I figured it might be a one time thing, so I figured I'd try again tonight. I drove to the location again and found the same sign today. At this point, I was frustrated that a reputable establishment with such an online presence was conducting business in such a way. I called the phone number on the sign and a man picked up. I said that I have visited twice in the past two days to buy some furniture and that I had found the sign in the door, and I asked when he would be open again. He immediately called me a liar for saying I had seen the sign twice and confirmed he'd be in the office tomorrow. I assured him that I was there, and he again insisted that I was lying. I promptly told him that I would no longer be looking to purchase and that he had lost my business. He proceeded to hang up on me. I understand personal issues come up, but it is clear this is just how this man runs his business. In addition, there was 0 effort for service recovery when I called. I would recommend staying far away, and this kind of behavior over the phone will translate to the customer service you receive when working with them.

I could easily find the bay where the locks were located. There was a handy doorbell style button you could click to request assistance. A man showed up (I feel terrible that I forgot his name) and he asked how he could help. I asked him about their service to make two deadbolts work with 1 key. He was unsure so he called their resident expert, Danyielle over to help. She was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. She actually informed me that Lowe's will rekey at no additional cost if you purchase the locks there in the store. But it wasn't necessary anyway since she was able to show me how I could find two deadbolts that were already keyed alike. She was kind and educated me which I think is invaluable for any shopping experience for home improvement. Pro tip: call your Lowe's ahead of time if you know you'll need help with something very specific like rekeying locks (as I thought I needed). I had called multiple stores because they usually only have a handful of employees that can rekey. This is what lead me out of my way to this particular Lowe's. But honestly, both employees were much more helpful than I have experienced as other locations, so this location feels worth the trek for me.

The Countertop has a LIMITED lifetime warranty covering original workmanship defects. You have a one year warranty covering original workmanship defects in topside and edge band surfaces. As with ANY stone/granite surface, chips and cracking may occur. If you are interested, we can sell you a replacement countertop at a reduced price. The fact that there are two similar cracks at corners suggests a stress or fabrication issue rather than a single accidental impact. Yet they can't help me.

Deceptive billing, silica dust disaster, and legal threats…read more This review is for: Floor Coverings International of Melbourne, FL (321) 499-2658 1270 Lake Washington Road Ste B Melbourne, FL 32935 Arthur Layman Tamara Whiteaker What started as a straightforward carpet replacement on our stairs turned into one of the worst contractor experiences I've had. Here's the full picture: Scheduling: Installers no-showed on the first scheduled date with no proactive communication. I had to call after they were already outside the arrival window to find out they weren't coming. Tile demo and dust: When installers discovered tile under the carpet, we were quoted a "worst case scenario" additional cost of $1,600 on top of the original $1,414.47. What they didn't mention was that the demo crew would leave every surface in our entire home -- upstairs, downstairs, soft furnishings, drapes, and our HVAC system -- coated in fine silica dust. No containment, no warning, no protection of any kind. This isn't just a mess, it's a serious health hazard. Even the lead demo worker acknowledged as he was leaving that he wouldn't be happy if it were his house. "Making it right": The company promised to make it right with a cleaning and a painter for the damaged walls and stairs. At no point during this process did anyone mention we would be charged for these remediation services. We have doorbell camera footage of the painter telling his worker that the flooring company was paying him -- not us. The cleaning was incomplete, with silica dust remaining on soft surfaces and in the HVAC. Surprise invoice: After carpet was finally installed, we received an invoice with a painter line item exceeding $1,000 -- no prior quote, no agreement, no breakdown. The work took under 2 hours and does not look good (bad sanding, one coat of paint - see through). We are going to get quotes to have it redone. The owner also revealed $200 of that line item was his personal fee for "coordinating" the painter. Threats: When my husband called to dispute the painter charge, the owner threatened small claims court if the full invoice wasn't paid within days, rather than engaging in any good-faith discussion. We are willing to pay what we actually agreed to despite the damage done to our home and belongings. Instead, we've been met with threats. Arthur failed to provide itemized cost breakdown as requested. Arthur failed to provide contractor license numbers as requested. Arthur subsequently sent a second threat for small claims court, followed by a threat to file a lien against our property. I mailed a letter and check for $2,329.14 (the total for what we had actually discussed), which was cashed. Arthur sent another letter threatening small claims again for the painter line item. On top of all of this, the carpet on the stairs looks like garbage. It is shedding all over even after vacuuming, the corners are popping out. We purchased the most expensive carpet option he showed us. I would give anything to go back in time and just leave the old carpet. This has not been an improvement to our home. This has been a nightmare.

He sent me a message on Thursday morning asking if he could come out in the evening since he had another job nearby. I told him he can come anytime because I was home. He text 30 minutes before he arrived. He was friendly and professional. We found another damaged screen panel that was small, and he quoted to fix it for an additional $20. His pricing overall was VERY reasonable. He repaired the screens in about an hour. It was impressive because one was directly over the pool so not possible to just put a ladder underneath. But that did not stop him from scaling the support beams and fixing the ceiling panel. After he was complete, he had several ways to pay, but we used Zelle.
