We used CW Kitchens to renovate our kitchen and would absolutely recommend them to anyone. We are so happy with how our kitchen turned out - modern design, superb attention to detail, and the designers worked with us to make our vision come to life. The service is also incredible, with kind staff always willing to go above and beyond for us. Thank you CW for making our dream kitchen come to life, and for making the process so easy for us!!!

I have recently had my new custom kitchen installed, and I have 3 major concerns that they are unwilling to do anything about. As kitchen designers there are some key things I feel they should have shown me or informed me of.
1. They say it is quite common to have a slant to the ceiling. If this is the case, they should anticipate it and do the measurements before finalizing drawings. I have a riser between the cabinet and crown molding that is clearly not level and they won't fix it (without paying for all new crown molding).
2. The design of the riser to crown molding was different (more professional
