Peg and Pat Willis — Spring 2010

We LOVE our new kitchen.

We have lived in our home for 41 years and have only done minor updates through the years.

We saw a Kitchen Made Simple ad in the St Paul paper and decided now was the time to do something major.  We had no idea what we wanted exactly but we needed a whole new updated kitchen.  We talked to Nancy and she was fantastic.  She suggested things we would have never thought of doing. Her ideas made our kitchen more functional and made better use of our space.

When the bid was a little higher than what we wanted to spend she worked with us to get the cost in our price range, without sacrificing quality.

Doug and his crew were great!  When they left they cleaned up the mess each day and if something wasn’t right they corrected the problem right away.

Thanks to all who worked on our Kitchen.

We would recommend KMS to anyone who was thinking of doing their kitchen.

Henry and Rosemary Schwartz — Spring 2010

Our kitchen was “made simple” and very beautiful with our remodel this spring.  We replaced cabinets with Starmark, flooring and counter tops.  The designer Nancy worked with us to create a better layout.  We found her very knowledgeable and took care of many details putting things together.

The rest of the crew did a great job doing the work.  The few problems that occurred were addressed right away and taken care of.  The workmanship was great.  The tile floor we had done was laid out perfectly.  The guys showed up when they said they would, and finished things well.

We feel we got a good remodel that was reasonably priced and done well.  I would recommend KMS to others without hesitation.

Mary and Ted Pestel — February 2010

Everyone who walks into our new kitchen says “Wow this is terrific!”  We asked Kitchens Made Simple to update our 1976 kitchen without changing the footprint of the house and they did, indeed, turn it into a wow kitchen that is more efficient and easy to prepare meals in.  They trippled the lighting, added a deeper sink, took out the old popcorn ceiling finish, changed it to a cleaner knock-down finish, took down and rebuilt a wall, changed the cabinets, added wood flooring and installed new counter tops.  All the people working on the project were experts who did high-quality work.  They completed the project in two months.  (They estimated 6 weeks and likely would have met that schedule had we not had to reorder our flooring due to a manufacturer’s problem with the original order.)  We love our new kitchen!

Jim and Sue Hetland — Fall 2009

Once again we find ourselves sitting at our new kitchen island doing two things, admiring the view and wondering how we ever managed with the old kitchen.  The kitchen has been done for a few months now but we still are in awe of the project and how it has exceeded all of our expectations.

What a wonderful team to work with at Kitchens Made Simple.  We knew when we met with Nancy and the Team it was going to be a great project.  No hidden surprises with construction or costs.  They even cleaned up after themselves!

Thank you to the KMS Team for a job well done!

Amy and Sam – July 2009

Thank you, KMS! Our kitchen turned out even better than we hoped. From Nancy’s great ideas and thorough design assistance to Doug’s careful, detailed work, we are so thrilled with our new, beautiful kitchen!

Thanks for everything, Nancy.

Glenda & Donna – October 2008

Thank you for your expertise, kindness and efficiency. Our new kitchen is more than we expected and everything we wanted. Everyone worked to complete the kitchen. Since our old kitchen was 31 years old and nonfunctioning, it is a remarkable process to strip out everything, make repairs and upgrades and install our new and beautiful kitchen.

You have such a great team of people: Doug and Steve, Rob, Mike, the granite guys, the plumber, and our constant go-to-person, you (Nancy).

Charisse & Mike Courteau – July 2008

KMS took the time to complete a thorough evaluation of our

kitchen prior to the remodel. They helped us restore our kitchen into a high quality space and now it is our favorite room in the house. The staff was delightful and their craftmanship was professional and brilliant. Thank you KMS!

Doug Ku – Feburary 2008

I had shopped a few places, from big box retailers to small design boutiques. After comparison, KMS became my final choice because of the great quality and the desirable price. The KMS designer led me through the whole design process and I am exceedingly pleased with my new kitchen design. My new kitchen looks gorgeous. The most important thing is that this new kitchen really makes my wife and kids extremely happy.

Howie Gilles – December 2007

I was completely happy with my new granite countertops. Kitchens Made Simple did exactly what they promised. Showed up on Monday morning, removed all my old countertops in the kitchen and adjoining bathroom and left on Tuesday with newly installed granite countertops, new sinks and faucets, and a new center island cook top unit. Everything worked perfectly and they didn’t need to come back for any follow-up items.

Truly was SIMPLE!

Doug & Patti Kersten – May 29, 2007

Dear Dave,
I am sitting here, at the dining room table, admiring the view. The kitchen is so beautiful! Yours was the voice of sanity during the installation process. After meeting you I just knew it was going to all come together. I appreciate your flexibility, your sense of humor and, especially, your immense skill.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

You will be thought of fondly as we enjoy our new kitchen.

Doug and Patti Kersten
