Extremely responsive, making the renovation process a lot easier and preventing delays. I highly recommend Flamtech as an appliance provider. Thank you, Flamtech! **★ — zbog, March 2023** > As soon as I handed over the check, Flamtech was nearly impossible to communicate with regarding delivery and install. > > The biggest issue is that Flamtech contracts its delivery and installs to a separate company that it apparently has no authority over or ability to communicate with. Yet it also insists on being the middleman to this company, and will not provide you their number or contact information for you to schedule the delivery and install yourself. > > Ricky was great at buying the model of fridge we told him to buy, but completely unhelpful arranging the delivery and install of the fridge. He was suddenly nearly impossible to get a hold of, and unable to give us any information about the delivery date. Our first scheduled delivery date was canceled, which Ricky knew about days before but neglected to tell us until the day of. He was also somehow unable to pass along any information to the delivery team: the delivery guys delivered the new fridge and said they weren't scheduled for any removals or installs. Ricky then tried to claim arranging the fridge to be both brought into my house and installed was my responsibility, that I should have worked it out with the delivery guys beforehand. How? Ricky, I don't have their number. You do. > > You can't have it both ways. Either you offer the service of delivery and install, or you don't. You can't tell me that you have no ability to coordinate with your delivery and install company, while forcing me to rely on that company to get the appliance into my home. > > Now I have a fridge in the middle of my kitchen with no way to get it installed or have the old one removed. Ricky's solution was to offer to call the delivery team to try to schedule the install. Wish he had thought of that two weeks ago when I gave him the check. **★★★★★ — BJ, Feb. 2023** > Jane, Ricky and Andy were terrific. We ordered a Liebherr refrigerator that did not work properly and that repair techs could not fix. Flamtech ran interference for us with Liebherr for months and ultimately got us a full refund. Our new Thermador just got delivered and works great! Flamtech has the best customer service! **★★★★★ — Doreen Wright, April 2021** > I recently purchased a Fisher Paykel washing machine from Jane at Flamtech. I had unique space requirements and Jane was able to find a solution that worked for me. The whole process from sales to delivery/installation was excellent! And I love the machine. Professional, knowledgable and personal - these staff at Flamtech are the best!! **★★★★★ — Lilian H. Weinreich, Architects, March 2017** > Flamtech are my go-to kitchen appliance supplier - the service is great and the prices are even better. Jane is up-to-date on the latest technology and equipment. I highly recommend Flamtech Appliances. ## Selected projects - [Kitchen Reno](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/kitchen-reno-pj-vj~7259770) - Location: New York, NY - Photos: 4 - [Finished Kitchens](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/finished-kitchens-pj-vj~298826) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 6 [See all 2 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/appliances/flamtech-appliances-pfvwus-pf~470187689) ## Ideabooks - [flamtech's Ideas](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/87097898/list/flamtech-s-ideas) — 6 ideas [See all 1 ideabook](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/flamtech) ## Community Q&A **Q: white quartz countertops....turmeric staining.** *(in Building a Home)* Hello everyone. Ready for some sage advice and tips right about now. Nearing the end of our new build (ha, right!) and at the point of choosing countertops. Kitchen is in, appliances coming in soon, trim is being put up, etc. My designer and I, when we had been choosing tile for the bathrooms had fallen in love with a countertop they had at Ciot, and had decided to go with that countertop material almost six months ago. We planned everything around it, the colors of the cabinets, the look and flow of the kitchen, etc. Well this week the fabricator that’s doing our counters came out and we showed him the counters we had planned on, he took his keys out, and scratched up that counter material pretty quick. Advised strongly against it, and mentioned others who had problems with it. Which of course is great to know before spending the $$ on it, but not exactly great cuz most things were planned around it. So now we are back to square one of choosing counters. Went to several suppliers in the last three days, picked up plenty of samples of quartz that went well with the white of the cabinets and look of the room. My ethnicity is Indian, and I use a lot of turmeric in my food. So I decided to do a turmeric test not just cuz it’s a highly staining spice, but because I use it practically every other day so it’s a reality of what goes on in my kitchen. Stained all my final quartz samples/contenders, left it for five minutes, and it came off only with an SOS hard sponge thing. Left it on again for about thirty minutes and I’m not able to get the stains off. Tried the SOS sponge, tried Magic Marker, tried an Oxy Clean paste. There’s still a faint yellow color. So now...is there seriously any white quartz countertop that can hold up to a turmeric stain? This is going to affect my entire kitchen design!!! I’ve read several other threads on this...and it seems that Silestone white might be a quartz that can handle turmeric stains? Any other choices/advice of what has worked for people? A: I've done testing on a some of the samples in our showroom. Ground a piece of turmeric into a bunch of different quartz and Neolith slabs, and then let the stains sit over a weekend. Most of the Neolith didn't take the stain, except maybe the riverwashed Strata Argentum. Most came off with water, the others came off with soapy water. Most of the quartz (I had some honed pieces too) stained. It lightened when washed with water and soapy water, though still had stain. But it came out with bleach. Surprisingly, beet juice didn't stick on anything. Comes right off with water. **Q: The latest DCS 30" gas range owners. Please reply.** *(in Appliances)* We are looking at getting DCS 30" RGV-2-304-N (4 burners) gas model ($1000 off right now). I have been searching for review here and on the web and people have been having issues with the cooling fan and broiler in the past. There are a few very bad reviews on Amazon. The brand has been purchased several times in the past. I wonder what is your experience if you have purchased this or similar model lately. Do you have any issues? How do you like it? I was hopping to have a reliable range for many years, but if going into high end market doesn't make fault proof and getting parts is going to be an issues, wouldn't be better to get something from high end of consumer market, for example, Samsung Flex Duo NX58K9850SS model? The budget is ~$3000. Thank you! A: My customers haven't experienced parts being particularly difficult to get, but then again, we're based in NYC and generally have good service coverage. YMMV. I would take the Amazon reviews in conjunction with other reviews, because in my experience, a lot of the Amazon reviews are reviewed on the wrong models, simply because they reviewer can't find the model that they actually have or can't be bothered to look it up. This is particularly true with appliances, since they very likely didn't buy it from Amazon. Certainly, there are no Amazon reviews of the current generation of DCS ranges. Some info from houzz: https://www.houzz.com/discussions/how-is-the-dcs-gas-range-dsvw-vd~2273318?n=11 \*\*Please note, the comments about the silvery maintop are no longer relevant as that has been changed to standard SS. Ironically, I have also seen reviews online at somepoint saying they felt that silvery surface was difficult to clean, though that thread is glowing about it. So, take everything with a grain of salt :) I like DCS as a company, and my experience cooking with them during a training was quite positive, but I would recommend them more if you like cooking with large pans/pots most of the time. Also, in reference to the brand being sold several times, I think I know the review you are talking about, and it is a bit misleading/hyperbolic. Fisher&Paykel bought DCS (from the guys who went on to make Capital), and Fisher&Paykel was bought by Haier. A brand being bought does not indicate it's going downhill - depends on what happens after that (look at when Sub Zero bought Wolf). As an appliance dealer, life goes on. The factories stay in the same place for the most part. Haier also bought GE last year, if that gives any perspective. Part of the general trend of consolidation of companies in the marketplace, where global corporations buy smaller companies. **Q: Quartz countertop seam through kitchen sink** *(in Design Dilemma)* We just had this quartz countertop installed and when I saw the seam i was reassured by my husband that we would barely notice it when they were done. This is the final product, they have polished this and say it is finished. Is this standard? Should I complain? Is there anything they can do to make it less obvious? A: From a execution perspective, the seam at the sink or cooktop is the place where it is the shortest, and also the easiest for the shop to do. If you judge a seam's visibility by length, that would be the place to put it. But I always advise our customers on seam location, and personally I almost always see if they can locate it elsewhere, usually at a corner area. It always results in a longer, sometimes much longer seam, but to me, it's worth it to move the seam out of a high traffic area, which the sink and cooktop necessarily are. Not only is it not placed in a spot where you're constantly staring at it, more importantly, it's not in a location where it will be constantly getting splashed with water, food, sauce, crud etc. If there is any spot that would benefit from a seamless countertop, the sink and cooktop areas would be the place. That's my philosophy. Plus, the manufacturers recommend locating seams in the corner if you're not going to do a rounded inside corner, like if you're doing a miter edge buildup. **Q: Love the wok station,where it is from?** *(in Photo Questions)* A: Correct. There is a series of specialty Capital ranges and rangetops in 30", 36" and 48" wide with a dedicated Wok burner with a 25,000BTU 3-ring open burner that we offer. We have a strong specialty in Asian cooking, and aside from this, there are a couple other solutions for wok cooking or Chinese cooking out in the market, depending on the design you are hoping to have for your kitchen. Are you going for a more contemporary look or traditional? Industrial? How much oven do you need? Some of our Chinese customers will prefer to get a combi-steam oven or a steam oven in lieu of a traditional oven (since Chinese cooking has a strong steaming tradition). **Q: Wok cooking on an induction cooktop?** *(in Photo Questions)* Is this acceptable? What is the power of the burner? Do you need to have a flat-bottomed wok? THANKS! I am trying to resolve this dilemma in my own kitchen. A: Gaggenau also makes one that is flat, but can take a round bottom wok "floating" on ring because of the way the inductions elements are set up there. Gives you flexibility to cook proper round wok, OR a flat skillet or stockpot. --- *Source: Houzz professional profile. Reflects the profile as of 2026-09-05.*
