Our exterior lighting was problematic and we found Dale via the internet. He was prompt and super…read morehelpful in envisioning what our front exterior could be with proper lighting. He set up an elaborate display with portable lights to demonstrate the effect of new lights. It was spectacular! Though the install took a bit longer than initially expected, the result was fabulous. Thereafter, Dale suggested that one entire area along the street could also use lighting. We had never even thought of that before, and he was 100% correct. Again, he set up a demonstration and it was wonderful. Now when we enter our home at night, it's a showcase! Dale was respectful and warm-hearted. We highly recommend him.

Brite Star Lighting came to me through a personal referral. Our initial telephone conversation was…read moreawesome. Dale told me I would be receiving a bid and return call within two days! That never occurred. Weeks went by and emails and calls went unanswered. Phone staff were evasive, illusive and somewhat unprofessional. Still, I gave him the benefit of the doubt BECAUSE of the referral he had received and our initial positive conversation. After almost a month of no forward progress Dale came out and walked my property. Again, he promised a written bid and then followed up with NOTHING. Overall, I was promised booking/ bid/information on at least four separate occasions after turning in all of my paperwork promptly with no follow-through. Seven weeks later and ABSOLUTELY nothing has even been received to date. It sure would have been much more professional and easier for everyone if you just said you didn't want the job! In my professional industry, word of mouth and follow-through are essential!

And he also engineered better mounting plates to correct some unevenness in mounting heights. Bravo Raoul and thank you! Better than

This was probably the worst experience we have ever had with a designer or vendor of any type at…read moreany time. In our opinion, the "goddess" did not listen well to us. She offered ideas but did not listen well if we happened not to accept some of them. For example, she told us we needed to landscape to add parking (we did not need it), yet raised the issue several more times even after we rejected the idea. She suggested we use a particular type of stone (sourced by somebody she seems to have known years ago) and kept pressing us to use this stone well after we told her we did not like it and that, in any case, the cost of the stone, shipping and installation would likely have blown through our entire budget. (Because, in our opinion, she does not listen well, she seemed to forget our budget number.) Worst for us, she failed, despite our requests, for over two months to produce tangible plans to meet a clear, hard and agreed deadline (except for what we think was a meagre sketch with two scales, neither of which was accurate). When, out of frustration and facing our deadline, we decided to go our own way and told her we wanted at least part of our deposit back, she agreed in writing to do so except for keeping a portion for what she wrote was six or so hours of work. Thereafter, however, she wrote us that she had worked 25+ hours on our project and intended to keep the entire deposit (which she did). In our opinion, the experience was horrible, frustrating, not professional and, in the end, lacked performance and sufficient integrity. Would have given zero stars if it had been possible.

I tried to purchase bed sheets from Cabana for my 12th anniversary. I needed the best…read more I decided to purchase local versus the Internet, as I needed a knowledgeable person. Over several days I engaged in 3 conversations with a Cabana salesperson. She recommended their house brand (Matouk) and assured me Matouk was a "best seller" and "Cabana carried nothing but the best". Over subsequent conversations it was clear that the salesperson could not answer basic questions such as "why is Matouk your best seller?" I prompted her to discuss thread counts and cotton types, but she was mostly stumped. She eventually admitted that she never used a Matouk product. I had the impression that she had never used a fine linen product. I eventually found a sell on the Internet with a tremendous amount of knowledge that made me feel safe in my decision. I also felt like I learned something, other than what is the "best seller". I spent 15 minutes on the phone with an expert and made the decision....that was a savings when you consider I got nowhere with Cabana in over an hour of discussions and research. I spent slightly more, approximately $1000, on the Internet than I would have spent at Cabana, but for my 12th anniversary I needed to be 100% certain that I would not be disappointed. I also felt better telling my partner all about the type of cotton, thread count, etc., rather than simply saying "happy anniversary, the Sales person told me it is there best seller".

The staff are very friendly and helpful. Loved the indoor and outdoor showrooms...lots of…read moreinventory to see.
