Working with Doug Schonfeld at Chef Toys has been an exceptional experience from start to finish…read more Doug is a wealth of information when it comes to EVERYTHING that belongs in a kitchen. He has a way of explaining things that makes even complex decisions feel straightforward and manageable. What I appreciate most about Doug is how genuinely helpful he is. No matter the question or challenge, he takes the time to understand what's needed and always comes back with thoughtful, practical solutions. He's a natural problem solver who anticipates issues before they arise, which makes a huge difference. Doug is also incredibly responsive. Whether it's a quick question or a more detailed request, he consistently replies promptly and thoroughly, keeping everything moving smoothly. Above all, Doug is honest and trustworthy. His recommendations are always grounded in what's best for the situation, not just making a sale. That level of integrity is rare and makes him someone you can confidently rely on. Doug is the reason we love Chef Toys and continue to choose them every time here at Orange Coast College. His professionalism, knowledge, and dedication make all the difference. I highly recommend Doug at Chef Toys to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, dependable, and genuinely supportive partner in kitchen equipment.

Warranty Experience with Chef's Toys and Mulberry Technology…read moreInitial Purchase and Expectations In 2023, we invested a total of $26,472.61, which included taxes and two warranty insurance plans, for a 3-door KINTORA refrigerator and a 2-door KINTORA freezer. Our initial experience was smooth and hassle-free, largely thanks to our salesperson, Estaban Aguirre. Unfortunately, we later discovered that Estaban was no longer with the company. The Issue Arises On March 6, 2026, the hinge of our 3-door KINTORA refrigerator broke, rendering the refrigerator unusable. Since we had purchased a warranty, we immediately reached out to Estaban for assistance, only to learn from Raul Flores that Estaban was no longer employed with Chef's Toys. Raul provided us with contact information for Mulberry Technology, who was supposed to handle our warranty claims. Challenges with the Warranty Process This marked the beginning of a frustrating ordeal. It quickly became apparent that Chef's Toys was not well-acquainted with Mulberry Technology. Raul initially gave us an incorrect contact number for starting our claim. He directed us to Joshua Wohl at Mulberry, who, while not involved in claims processing, was helpful enough to connect us with the appropriate department--after we had already experienced several unhelpful responses from Raul. After sending our purchase order to Karime, our contact at Mulberry, we learned that Chef's Toys had never registered our protection plan with Mulberry or transferred the necessary funds for our warranty. We attempted to follow up with Raul but received no response until we escalated our concerns to Chef's Toys' corporate office. Unfortunately, reaching out to their main line at 714-662-2433 during business hours of M-F between 9am-5pm only led to a voicemail, and our emails through their website also went unanswered. This is TERRIBLE! Resolution and Lingering Frustrations Eventually, Raul from Chef's Toys responded and offered a courtesy repair for our refrigerator door but informed us that our remaining warranty coverage would not be honored. This was frustrating, as we had already paid for the warranty. During this period, on March 25, the Health Department visited and deducted points from our inspection due to the non-functional equipment. We promptly notified Raul about the urgency, as another inspection was scheduled for April 6. Fortunately, the Health Department accepted our communication with Raul and a photo of the completed repair as proof. The entire process--from the breakdown on March 6 to the repair on April 6--took a full month. This delay was disappointing, especially given that waiting for a part should not have justified such a lengthy timeline; someone could have delivered the part to expedite the repair.

I am SO grateful for Elaine, who has successfully helped me land a job in what has felt like such a…read moretiresome job hunt. Elaine Buhler (Sr. Vice President, Sr. Talent Manager for Southern California) has been my advocate and found me a great job this month. Unlike other recruiters I've worked with, in the very few months we have been in touch, she has provided a very "one-on-one" sense of care to connect me to opportunities that are specific to my desires. She sought me out via Linkedin... she doesn't blindly forward me opportunities... she submitted me for a role and gave me as much insight into the correspondence with the employer to help me understand how fit for the role I was. From texts, voicemails, to short and sweet emails, Elaine made sure I felt confident and informed to succeed with landing the job. Her industry expertise and unwavering support were instrumental in landing me this incredible opportunity. I can't recommend Elaine enough to anyone seeking a dedicated and results-oriented recruiter.

This company is lacking training with there recruiters. They have no idea how to follow through…read more This recruiter, women Malorie Oliveres, is too occupied I guess to deal with the hard work that her job requires sometimes. She hired me to work for this company. Really great opportunity. Told me I had it. I completed so much paperwork. Gave these people ALL my personal information. To be told "we hired you but we have to wait for your background check to come back through First Advantage". 14 days later she tells me "sorry the company went with somebody else because your background check is taking too long". And no s*** lady I've sent chats everyday for the last 8 days to find out the status of my check. She did not follow up with them one time... So of course they are going to go with somebody else. I had a background check ran twice this year it only took 3 days and I have nothing on my background. So makes me think First Advantage is a fraudulent sorry excuse for a screening company right away. She did not even think twice about it and just sent me a "I'm sorry e-mail". Robert Half unprofessional and gives half ass service. I'll never deal with them again. I still have not received my background check. I'm going to report First Advantage any way I can.

He's extremely patient, takes the time to really listen, and is thoughtful in how he responds to your needs rather than rushing the process. I came into therapy knowing I had a lot of healing to do, and Michael met me exactly where I was. His calm presence and genuine care made it easier to open up and work through things at my own pace. Each session felt intentional, supportive, and grounding. If you're looking for a therapist who truly listens, respects your journey, and supports real healing, I highly recommend Michael.

I've been to highly regarded therapists who spread out meetings for months, consuming unnecessary time and investment. His superpower is that he epitomized complete altruism with laser sharp discernment and focused attention that facilitated deep healing of emotional wounds so buried I didn't even know they existed. He also leaves the door open for further growth and healing without feeling locked into a contractual relationship. Honestly he should patent his Method for all coaches to follow! I give him the highest possible rating and encourage others to not hesitate reaching out to him.

It truly is geared towards health & wellbeing, steering clear of some of the 'tropes' and consumerism that I have found in other podcasts for meditation. The immense qualifications of Dr. Robert Puff also are a huge benefit -- in an era where many in the digital space profess to know so much, it is reassuring to know that you are in the 'hands of an expert' when listening to this podcast. I have always appreciated the pace and gentle focus of each session, Dr. Robert Puff has an aura of nonjudgment and safety in his language and message.

Additionally, I wanted to also look into getting a better whisk, but I think I will make the wood what I have. And I knew I was gonna need a digital scale to help me through my sourdough journey now that I was gifted two sourdough starters--one from Italy and one from France (one of my clients was very giving & thoughtful). The price is range from $40-$85., whoa! Amazon has them for about $30. I will have to think about this.. Met Gonzo, yes, that's how he spelled it, a delightful & enlightened staff member who was very helpful with recommending which would be best. We could've had a whole conversation for a half a day! LoL. In the end, I decided to think about it before purchasing one (turns out later, best decision I made all day) My glass measuring cup is in storage & I find it cumbersome so I bought a lighter version (2 cup). Happy with my purchase. Hubby bought his item separately & let me roam the aisles. Highly recommend this store. Gonzo was instrumental in making me feel welcomed & appreciated to be shopping here, hence the 5 star. As I mentioned many times in the past, I greatly value customer service.
