My wife and I went to Kutis Kitchen because of the decent rating they had on BBB. So we made an appointment to come in and talk with a young sales guy about two baths we wanted remodeled. The sales guy(A.K.) was friendly enough and very eager to work with us. We met with the sales guy a couple of more times, he quoted us a price that was way too high about $28k for 2 small baths. I have done remodeling before myself and we are avid reviewers of the DIY home network channel, so we knew the price was too high. But we wanted the work done within a month. We figured we could do some of the work ourselves and cut some of the cost. So, we put a down payment of $1K(non-refundable), as a good faith deposit to continue going forward, FRIST mistake. That's when things went downhill fast.
I figured if I am paying for a service I want to know exactly what I am paying for, so I told the young salesman to itemize the work and material for the project. We already picked out the fixtures(which was way too pricey, I found the same fixtures on the internet less then half the cost!) and we wanted a rough estimate on everything else, so I could do some of the work myself. Suddenly the friendly young salesman was not so friendly and NOT so eager to help us with our project. Week after week I would call or email this guy about getting this project done, it was like pulling teeth. About 3 months later and we knew this guy was wasting our time. He just wanted to meet his sale quota, the sales quota to sign us up for the $1000.00
BOTTOM LINE: Kitus Kitchen is a schema. It is way over priced for what you get. Our sales guy(A.K. watch out for this guy) was looking to fill his quota and sign us up. They are good for ideas and that is about it. If you are considering Kutis Kitchen and they are asking for a down payment, go the other way and run! You can get free design work at IKEA. If you had in the process of working with these guys get and itemized list of service before you PAYMENT anything!
