Bathroom Vanities In Slatted Base Design..

DO NOT BUY FROM THIS GUY he does great work but it takes over a year to get anything and I haven't even got all of the project yet.. I am so mad right now I cannot contain myself. If I don't get a ship date today of the rest of the piece I am contacting my bank for a fraud investigation on this 5k albatros. For the last 5 days I have tried to get a hold of him and even had his cell which is now filled up with messages.. so I am not holding my breath.. this whole experience has sucked.

Christopher made us a beautiful custom bookcase (10' wide x 8' tall) distressed solid white oak, with barn doors and built in baseboard radiator covers. We are extremely pleased. We spoke over the phone a few times and used text messaging to confirm that we were on the same page with the design. He was always easy to reach and very responsive. He mailed a very carefully drawn/professional drawing before starting to build it, and his assistant personally came to our house to install the bookcase. Thanks Chris!

These came out great and are exactly what I wanted. I'd absolutely work with CL again. He is clearly a master cabinet maker who takes pride in his work. Communication was spare- frustrating at first but I just think this is his style. He did respond each time with only one brief delay. Some little details were lost but nothing important. Like the others my pieces were a month past the date. Seems timing might is his one issue but that's not terribly unusual. I give the benefit of the doubt to craftspeople who have to take many projects on to make any profit. Next time though I would stay on top of the process a bit more if time is of the essence. I weigh priorities with all of these aspects. In this case the finished product was most important to me and I was delighted with that.

General disappointment. I originally went with this maker because he said he could make it out of 16/4 hardwood - which is vey thick. I created the proposa mid January 2017 and received item July 2017. He kept on saying he'd have it out by certain times like April and I waited patiently. It wasn't worth the wait. I think Christopher probably handles everything himself. My advice would to have someone manage the communication and scheduling. He wasn't honest with his timeline nor did he deliver what I wanted. Had that been the case, I could have found someone local to build my table. 16/4 wood is hard to find in white oak but that is no excuse. I want to continue to support local artisans and craftspeople but surely there's a better way to do that.

The custom Vanity is beautiful. The workmanship is great. The packing and delivery was also good. It took way to long to produce. Also, I had to get my cabinet guy to remake the drawers because there was no room for the plumbing but I am not too concerned about this because I designed it and there was not really clear instructions given to him. Overall I am very happy with the vanity.
