So far our experiences with Barbara, the designer here, have been great. She is very thorough in both her designs, inspections and design eyes.We are redoing our 2nd homes kitchen and when giving the estimate, she really took her time in our kitchen, took lots of notes, measurements, asked lots of questions about our preferences. We currently have a very bizarre hidden 2nd island that is extremely long, she went inside the hidden space to inspect it and measure it and suggested a cool cabinet that would make use of this space. She has contractors she recommends, appliance dealers and tile dealers she works with often, all for a seamless process.I will update this review with before and after pictures once our kitchen is completed along with an updated experience. This is our first time getting a designer and doing a kitchen renovation.

I just read 2 reviews claiming the owner was rude. One reviewer (Jose) stated owner said Cant you read English? Understandable, since there is a sign on the door stating No Solicitors and apparently this reviewer was in fact a solicitor and not a customer. A second reviewer (Marcie) claimed Barbara was extremely rude Again, Marcie might think this since she did not have an appointment and just showed up as the owner was locking up the showroom for the day, after all there is a sign on the window stating By Appointment Only.This is not a walk-off the street showroom. Apparently neither Jose or Marcie can read the signs on the showroom window or choose to ignore them. No Solicitors and By Appointment Only means just that. I have known Barbara for many years and one thing is certain about her, she doesnt suffer the fool lightly. If fools cant read the signs they should not complain if they are not welcomed with open arms.I have hired The Place for Kitchen and Baths on 3 different occasions to remodel my Boca and Chicago condos and to design my kitchen and baths in a very expensive custom home I designed. In all 3 instances I was more than satisfied with her professionalism, products and services. The quality of the work was great and would use her again without question, if the need arose in the future.

After experiences with horrible contractors and designers that were more concerned about profiting on a job versus looking out for their clients, I wanted someone to just spare the superficial “niceties” and get the job done on time, at a fair price, using high quality materials while designing me a space that’s not a carbon copy of my neighbors. That’s what Barbara did for me. I despise cooking, and it’s a bit easier now that my kitchen has the flow and beauty that Barbara created. Even though she requires an appointment, it’s so she is not disturbed while she if focused, working on her clients’ projects. The clients needs come first. Although a cliche, it was clear to me — that’s Barbara’s philosophy.

When you see Barbaras website, its indisputable that she designs impeccable kitchens and baths. She is also skilled at a variety of aesthetics, which is nice as Ive noticed some designers get in to a rut where each kitchen looks the same as the last. Not only are her designs beautiful, but functional (so important is you actually cook in your kitchen!) She is serious about what she does, and it shows.

Barbara is a very talented designer. We were thrilled with her suggestions, service and installation in our kitchen, dining room and bathrooms.. We highly recommend her.

I had a great experience working with owner Barbara on my recent kitchen remodel. Our Dream kitchen was brought to life by Barbara, I would highly recommend this business.

Thank you to the staff at The Place for Kitchens and Bath for the wonderful experience my wife and I had during our kitchen and master bath renovation. Barbara was a pleasure to work with.

Barbara Geller is supremely talented at designing kitchens and bathrooms. Additionally she doesn’t take any BS from suppliers or workers, her word is her bond with the client.

Your beautiful kitchen, baths and family room cabinet designs get a big WOW from every one of our visitors. We wouldnt hesitate to use your firm again and again. Thank you!Steve and Lori Strong

Rude. The second I walked in was greeted with “can you read English?” Her work might be good but her attitude absolutely needs it’s own remodeling.10-02-19To follow up to the owners response:It really should not matter as I am also in the business of customer service and any and every person that walks through our doors are greeted as a potential customer or someone who might need help regarding our area of expertise. The lady was rude and did not act as someone who has a business and serves others should. Inexcusable behavior as far as customer service from a business that is open to the public. I can go on about the specifics of her Read English comment but I am not that petty. Be careful with your words.

Barbara Geller’s show-stopping work has left me in awe. Every timeless kitchen and bath by The Place for Kitchens and Baths is truly a work of art, meticulously designed to perfection. Form follows function and the beauty of each space is enhanced by its practicality.

I just tempted to walk into the store as I am remodeling my kitchen. I opened the unlocked door only to be sharply scolded by the owner who snapped at me and said we are not open....appointment only then she slammed and lock the door on me. Thats certainly an interesting way to try to gain new customers.

I have photographed Barbara Gellers kitchens and baths for 9 years now and with each new design comes perfection in colors, use of materials and excellent attention to detail. I highly recommend The Place For Kitchens and Baths for your next project.EB

Barbara designed and remodeled my neighbors kitchen. It was absolutely exquisite. The house then sold for 40k above appraisal. The highest price ever sold in our neighborhood over 800k. She has been an award winning designer for many years and is truly gifted. Workmanship is excellent also! LorraineLoren Jones Nestler Poletto Sothebys International Realty

Rude, Drove all the way here and was told its by appointment only. Not sure why I even came I was warned and the reviews are 100% accurate

Incredible how rude someone can be toward a potential customer. Condescending, arrogant, unhelpful, and unapologetic. I can’t imagine how they would be if they had my money already. Apparently there is a theme to her behavior.

Made an appointment cancelled over a week later because she cant take on additional work at this time...Seems like a 1 person show as there is no offer of anyone else or mention of anyone else to assist. Small business pains I guess.

Was not there
