I signed up for the service at the last Everett Home Show at Comcast Arena. Designer, Alan Townes, contacted me and set up an appointment to review what we wanted. He arrived, explained the different options regarding materials and height of each drawer (different heights for different goods). We chose the ones we wanted and he said someone would be out for a more exact measurement. We paid a reasonable down-payment at that time. Later, the installer came for a more accurate measurement and said he would order the shelves in the configurations we wanted. Once the shelves came in two installers arrived. Brothers Shannon and Robby arrived and installed the shelves. They were very particular and you could tell they cared about the outcome. We were pleased with the final outcome and would recommend Shelf-Genie to others looking for storage solutions.

We had Alan come out the other day and give us a quote for putting in pull-out shelves in two of our kitchen cabinets. My husband and I were blown away by the price. Alan was very professional and extremely pleasant. He assured us that we had not wasted his time and was just sorry that he couldn't help us, right now. The product that the company offers is very nice and I realize that they are custom built for each situation, but it is simply far beyond our budget and not something that we can afford to do. Sincerely, Kim Scherer

INSTALLER IS TO CALL ME FOR FINAL MEASUREMENT APPOINTMENT. THE COMPANY HAD TO WAIT ON ME FOR A LONG TIME WHILE OTHER RENOVATIONS WERE COMPLETED BEFORE THEY COULD MAKE A VISIT TO SHOW ME THE PRODUCT AND HELP ME CHOOSE WHAT WOULD WORK BEST FOR ME. THEY CALLED OFTEN TO BE SURE IT HAPPENED AND I APPRECIATE THAT. I'M REALLY EXCITED TO GET THE SLIDE OUT SHELVES INSTALLED! I HAVE SEEN THE PRODUCT MANY TIMES AT LOCAL HOME SHOWS AND TALKED TO THE REPS AND THIS WAS A BIGGIE ON MY WISH LIST. WHEN I SAW THE BIG DEAL I WAS SO PLEASED I COULD GET ON THE LIST FOR THIS SERVICE. THANK YOU!

I had all the lower cupboards in the kitchen and both bathrooms done. The original shelves were only half shelves on the top and there was a lot of wasted space. Also had a blind corner that I could no longer make use of (love this option). They look great and it is so much easier to find what I need and use what I have. They were pricey but we could not do the job ourselves and they are good quality. We ordered over Christmas and it still only took 4 weeks. The installers were efficient and cleaned up after themselves.

Description of Work: I'm continuing to work with Alan of ShelfGenie but am already impressed by his professionalism, courtesy, efficiency, and patience when a family emergency forced me to postpone my project. Robbie was also extremely polite & prompt and took cabinet measurements with a minimum of fuss, barely interrupting the flow of my daily schedule. I'm looking forward to seeing the results of our planning and know this will be a positive enhancement of my cooking enjoyment.

Pro: this is a quality product, I got what I paid for,and the people I dealt with were polite and professional Con:the product is ridiculously expensive; the process is too heavy on the selling part and a little too casual on communication after you sign the contract. On the price: I bought the discount deal of $500 off for $199. Two shelves, with the discount, were $860. This means the normal price would have been $1160. There is lots of discussion of upgraded wood, side heights, etc, during the sales pitch, so I was talked into upgrades because the basic product is pretty basic. I resisted moderate pressure to let them quote me on other drawers. The drawers are nice, but I cannot recommend them at this price. It feels like the discount deal was somehow worked out in the price to not really be a $300 discount. On the process: I receive 5 contacts (two phone calls, three emails) to remind/confirm/reconfirm/validate and be sure I was at my house at the time of the initial appointment; this was quite excessive. The "designer" comes to make the pitch and apply moderate pressure on upgrades and additional quotes, but she doesn`t do the measuring, which requires another person to come on a separate occasion. While I want to be sure the right measurements are taken, two visits are unnecessary and the sales person should also do measuring. The installer, on both his measuring and intalling appointment calls, emphasized when it would be convenient for him to come, rather than asking what worked for my schedule. Once the order was signed, I did not hear a peep of communication for 4 weeks. In fairness to them, they told me it would be that long, but after 5 contacts to be sure I would be there for the initial appointment, the silence left me feeling like the focus was on the sale.

Hi [member name removed], Thank you for your feedback. We are always looking for ways to improve our service, so we don't take this lightly. Regarding the price, we're not cheap, but we do provide a lot of value for what you're getting. The cost for 2 Glide-Outs is more expensive on a per unit level than the cost would've been for 4. Our intent is never to "sell you" stuff that you don't need, but rather create a solution that meets your needs. Oftentimes this does involve looking at other cabinets, but we're happy to keep it focused on just the few that you initially wanted. Regarding the process, I'm sorry if we over-communicated with you prior to the appointment; I'm not sure why there were so many contacts in this case. I believe some of them were to initially set the appointment up, and then there should only be 1 confirmation afterward. Usually that only happens when we don't receive a response from the client, but I will look into this. Regarding the measuring, our installers are the ones that actually put in the the products, so we feel that it's important that they are responsible for the final measurements. They measure to the millimeter to maximize your space, and they also take into account plumbing, electrical conduit, hinges, doors, etc. In your case, it may have been very simple, but our process is setup this way to do a final measure. I'm sorry you felt this was unnecessary. Regarding communication, we are upfront as you mention about the lead time between measurement and installation, and we don't typically make contact in the meantime. If you think it would be helpful, we could certainly look into touching base prior to the products arriving, just to say "hi". I appreciate your business, [member name removed], and please let me know if there's anything further I can do for you. Best regards, Alan

I signed up for the Big Deal, and was able to promptly schedule a meeting. Unfortunately, there was nothing I could purchase within the limitations of the special, and I was not ready to commit to a large project. I asked for a refund, and they immediately arranged it with Angie's List. They called to apologize for the misunderstanding, and dealt with me in a professional way.

Dear (deleted member name), First, I am very sorry that you were unsatisfied with this experience. We pride ourselves in the quality of our products and the service we provide on a daily basis. I did explain up front that our normal consultation process is to review your entire space to create a proper solution with everything in mind, even if you end up purchasing just a portion of it (this is also clearly explained our my Angie's List profile video). You agreed to this and did not make any mention of having a time constraint. You did mention that you wanted to see what you could get for just the $500 deal, and I provided that information. As clearly noted in the Big Deal, an average job for us is around $2500. Your quote was right around that for everything, though you are not obligated to get the entire solution. You had emailed me directly about this, and I responded very quickly. I apologized for it not working out for you and stated that you can indeed get a refund, but it needs to come from Angie's List, not us. I'm not sure why you felt the need to post this review to get your refund, but I have contacted Angie's List (a 2nd time) on behalf of you to help expedite this process. Based on our discussions in your home, I realize that you are frustrated with the new house you purchased and all of the things that need fixing (like your "crummy kitchen", the unexpected electrical work, etc). I understand that there are probably a lot of unforeseen expenses that have come up, and perhaps your priorities changed with regards to needing Glide-Out shelving. I completely understand if you do not wish to proceed with our services, but I do not think it's fair to us to publicly provide such a negative rating simply to get your refund (which you were already going to get). I'm very proud of the A-level service and quality we provide and the A-rating we've earned at Angie's List, and I am happy to speak with you directly if you'd like to discuss further.

We chose the least expensive type of wood, and are happy with that. We also chose the least expensive slider mechanism, believing that a slider is a slider is a slider. In retrospect, I would choose one of the more expensive slider assemblies, to get an easier slide. Perhaps it will loosen with time. The estimator made a suggestion, which we accepted -- to build a drawer with compartments to stand cookie sheets, cutting boards, lids, etc. I am very happy we did that. It's wonderful!
