Perhaps they can do closets, but they cannot do built-in shelving. This company sold us a bill of goods for a "beautiful" and "custom" set of built-in shelving for the living room of our late ninteenth century brick townhouse in Brooklyn. First, nothing is built onsite. They tweak IKEA style cabinets at the "shop"--supposedly to measure--and then shove them up against your wall using cheap materials. The shelves were attached using plastic things which were unsightly. The end product looks worse than do-it-yourself options, and they will look significantly different than the artistic rendering provided. Cheap materials. Cheap. Cheap. The owner/lead designer is persuasive but not honest. We asked for a face-to-face meeting after we saw huge gaps between the shelves and the wall (3 inches). He ignored the request and never came back in-person to the site. Different installers were sent on different occasions. When confronted about the issues they just tried to lean on their bogus contract which they claims Indicated that they can only do 90 angles and that our walls were too "distorted" for a proper installation. Timing-wise the shelves were supposed to take a couple of days. After four weeks of begging them to come back to finish install, they "cancelled other clients" to show up an hour and a half late. They covered nothing to protect our furniture or entryways. We fired them after 4 weeks of torment. They were simply awful. Do yourself a favor and find a built-in provider who is a carpenter. Ask to see other work. Dont waste your time on this, exploitive, dishonest, terrible outfit. Though I do not have proof, given my person experience and the overly-euphoric, yoga-instructor-like language of the other reviews, I think some of them are fake. Maybe its time for a helping of truth.

I first heard of European Closet & Cabinet from a good friend of mine who has some beautiful furniture in his apartment. He suggested them because of the fine job they did with his living space. So the next morning, I called them and set up an appointment. I was living in a new small house and wanted it to look as well-done as possible. They were very helpful and clear over the phone, and it was like I was actually with them. When we got together at the store, they understood exactly what I was hoping for and sketched out the design to fit my needs perfectly. The construction was finished about a week ago and I’ve yet to have a single visitor that hasn’t complimented the décor that they’ve assembled. I strongly recommend this to anyone interested in having a beautiful home.

I had heard about European Closet and Cabinet from a couple of close associates, and I wound up calling them to inquire about their services for closet repair for a ladyfriends place as a surprise birthday gift. I spoke with a very mannerly person on the phone and was specific as to what needed to be done. After making a set appointment for the next day(when Id be at her place while she was out)they arrived, set everything up with the closet efficiently and thoroughly and even cleaned up a bit after themselves. And they stressed if that there was any problem, to call the main office right away. Good, proficient service.

The best experience I have had, 1. Best prices, you cant find better, 2. Great knowledge about their business, 3 Very flexible, especially Henry. Helped us out A LOT, with a payment plan. If something isnt right they will gladly replace or re-do it, no questions asked. Very pleasant and helpful on the phone. Also we had shopped around for the doors we wanted in the area, but the price were so high, it was very fortunate for those guys to start making doors for their excellent closets! Had some dings on the shelves parts but the guys replaced it in no-time, same with huge glass doors. Highly recommend!! A+++

Moved into a new apartment with my boyfriend in Greenpoint. This is the first time weve lived together and we found out rather quickly that we have A LOT of stuff. I needed to get things organized or I was going to go insane! I called European Closet and Cabinet to help us organize our bedroom closet. I was able to get a consultation with in a couple of days, and finalize plans by the weeks end. The workers came in and did a great job: now we have a place for our shoes, coats, my boyfriends suits and all of my things. Everything has its place, and the closet looks great! Would recommend for sure.

I wanted to find a place that can make my room my Utopia of sorts. I am very much into antique styles and came across this gem European Closet & Cabinet. The showroom was spectacular with so much to see and to take into consideration! The staff was helpful with my vision and helped me make it into a reality. After staring and debating on various designs (a few hours) I decided on one vintage style set that made me feel as if I stepped into the past. This will be the first stop next time I need an interior makeover.

I made an appointment with European Closet and Cabinet in desperate need of a media center for my apartment -- I was so tired of keeping my TV on top of the dresser! Their staff was incredibly helpful over the phone, and when I went in for my consultation they had already drafted some sketches based on what he had talked about previously. Were in the process of finalizing the design now, and I couldnt be happier with the service Ive received so far. I cant wait until the come to my home to complete the installation!

Im one of those people that has a lot of stuff in their place but so little time to actually organize it (and not a ton of space), so I decided to give ECC a call and get a consultation. They were friendly with me on the phone, came out and did a really industrious job of economizing my room and closets, and made a lot of difference. I dont feel like Im running an obstacle course trying to go to the bathroom anymore, so that definitely helps. I really commend the service from this place.

If youre the type of person who loves a spacious and unique looking closet established in your bedroom or hallway, European Cabinets & Closets shouldnt be ignored. Their style is just as good. One of the best parts is that you can have your configuration changed whenever you choose which I find attractive.
