She really helped us see the potential of our space and maximized the opportunity to make it just right for what we wanted. Even though there were construction and contractor issues she was able to navigate around and find solutions so our kitchen could be done on time. We couldn't have had a better more experienced designer and we are so thankful she was able to get everything done even during a pandemic! We highly recommend her and her team at GKC for your kitchen remodel. **★★★★★ — Patricia Tiralongo, June 2021** > My Leicht kitchen is everything I ever wanted - truly a dream I get to live and cook in this space every day. My designer Gabriela Campos deserves all of the credit. I had an idea of what I wanted and she listened - always. She is very organized, patient, creative and was always on top of my project. She always had a solution & truthfully she was the calm steady hand - always! I've built a house before and dealt with kitchen designers/cabinet companies on more than one occasion over my life thus far -- THIS was by far the best experience. Gabriela made is all come together and the installation team was excellent. I couldn't have asked for anything more. It's a high quality kitchen and excellent value. Don't hesitate working with her or the team at GKC. **★★★★★ — Michelle Hung, July 2020** > Our Leicht kitchen exceeded all our dreams and expectations. We are grateful to the expertise and professionalism of Gabriela Campos at GKC. She was not only a pleasure to work with but she was flexible and supportive though out the installation. Gabby is also very practical in her design and always incorporates new ideas and workflow with the aesthetics of the kitchen. The newly renovated kitchen has truly become the focus of our home where we love to spend time. It is stunning and practical at the same time. We will highly recommend Gabby and GKC for any type of kitchen project. **★★★★★ — Alexander Kopelman, Nov. 2019** > We worked with Gabriela Campos to create a new kitchen in our pre-war apartment. Gabriela was a joy. She is creative and an excellent listener. She designed a beautiful kitchen and helped work with our contractors and the installers to keep everything on schedule. We love the quality of the cabinets and the feel of the space. **Comment from German Kitchen Center:** > Dear Alexander, > > It was a pleasure to work with you, Sarah, and Rosie. Thank you for sharing your experience, it was an exciting project with a lot of ideas and therefore challenges. I'm glad we worked it out. Knowing that you're happy with the kitchen is the best reward and inspiration for us. **★★★★★ — Rita & Dave Hattem, Nov. 2019** > German Kitchen does it all very well--top quality design, workmanship and service. The result is that our new kitchen is absolutely gorgeous and the purchase and installation process worked quite smoothly. Bottom line, we love the look and feel of the kitchen! We also love using it and even our meals taste better! **★★★★★ — Sameer Gupta, July 2019** > Gabby and the owner (Mayan) were really helpful during the project. They delivered the project on time and exactly as per design. > Just really good client service on top of a quality product! **★★★ — Paul McEwen, Oct. 2018** > Leicht are beautifully made and as you would expect from a German company made very well. The mixture of texture and products will suite any style of apartment . As with any projects issues can arise from the install and when this happens it is important that the company you deal with are responsive and resolve the issues . The owner of the German kitchen Center was very responsive and we held conference call with the designer to resolve the issue . **★★★★★ — Denise Pavlides, June 2018** > We had a great experience working with GKC, our designer/architect Chen, and our project manager Wendee. The renovation was largely problem free (this was my third kitchen remodel so I knew to expect hiccups and issues along the way) and the problems that cropped up were resolved quickly and painlessly.. I am so happy with the end product and love using my beautiful and well-planned kitchen. I definitely recommend using GKS’s installer because everything is metric and made to fit a particular way; the install went much faster than if my contractor (who is amazing) would have had to figure everything out. I also loved that this was one-stop shopping for cabinets, flooring, appliances, and countertops (I went elsewhere for my backsplash because I had something very particular in mind that GKC couldn’t source for me). And the price was reasonable for the quality of the products. **★★★★★ — Jody O, May 2018** > We all go into our home projects with the best of intentions. We meet people, view product lines and fall in love. And with the cost of kitchen' remodeling so high, we'd like to make sure that everything goes smoothly and the honeymoon continues. But unfortunately sometimes things go wrong, and when that happens, the manner in which it get's handled is what really separates a company and it's people from a product line. > > In our case, after purchasing a floor sample kitchen and augmenting it with new cabinetry, we had some issues upon its arrival, including some which were the fault of delivery services or appliance manufacturers and completely out of GKC's control. And though the magnitude of the annoyances ranged from high to low, the attention and excellent service we received from our team (Sam/Yuval were the best) never wavered. They did everything humanly possible to resolve every issue large and small in a timely fashion, and remained steadfast in their connection to us and their commitment to our complete 100% satisfaction. > > And today, not only is our high-quality kitchen absolutely gorgeous but it is also perfect. And perfect is how I would rate a company so committed to going above and beyond for their clients. **★★★★★ — Barry S, Oct. 2017** > Having shopped around at other kitchen cabinet-makers in Manhattan, I was uncertain how to proceed until I met Gowoon Jeong at Leicht. I felt confident that Leicht was the right choice at our first meeting; but very important too, I felt Gowoon would be as dedicated, straight-forward and honest with me about the design as I can ever expect. All through the selection, ordering, preparing and installing processes, Gowoon was available to answer all of my many questions as they came to mind and as if I didn't already feel confident enough, Gowoon brought along designer Yoram Zioni to assist with measuring my existing kitchen. He gave his opinion that we've chosen all the right colors and materials. It meant a lot to have that second opinion though this entire project felt "right" from the start. The time-frame for install was exactly as promised with Leicht's best installers building my kitchen cabinets to perfection. The cabinet quality and finishes seem brand new, now 2 years after installation. People seeing my new kitchen use words like magnificent and perfection. In a world where supposedly nothing is perfect, I say with all conviction that Leicht and Gowoon Jeong are about as close to perfection as possible and I give everyone at Leicht my deepest thanks for a job well done. **★★★★★ — Beth Bogulski, Sept. 2017** > I love my kitchen & I get a ton of compliments! Gowoon was a total professional, she understood my vision & budget.. Two things that don't necessarily match up.. She was very attentive and had great solutions to my tiny Manhattan kitchen. My next renovation project I will definitely reach out to Gowoon at the German Kitchen Center. > Thanks so much! > > Beth **★★★★★ — Ameriprise Financial - Columbia, Aug. 2017** > Gowoon was extremely professional and was very helpful from beginning to end of project . The service has been impeccable . We had a few adjustments and the service people came in a timely manner and addressed any issue or concern . I would recommend Gowoon and her staffs in the future . ## Selected projects - [Ericas LN Kitchen Renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/ericas-ln-kitchen-renovation-pj-vj~5949703) - Location: Sagaponack, NY - Photos: 17 - Description: Kitchen cabinets by Leicht Kitchen Designer: Yoram Zioni with German Kitchen Center Cabinets material: Silk lacquer, wood, glass Counter tops: Porcelain Appliances: Miele Floors: White Oak Interior design: Sagaponack Builders - [Surfside DR Renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/surfside-dr-renovation-pj-vj~5949583) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 22 - Description: Kitchen cabinets by Leicht Kitchen Kitchen Designer: Yoram Zioni with German Kitchen Center Cabinets material: ESG back-lacquered glass Counter tops: Natural stone Appliances: Gaggenau & Blue Star Floors: White Oak Interior design: Jeffery Lamb Interiors - [German Kitchen Center Overview](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/german-kitchen-center-overview-pj-vj~5879115) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 - [66 East 11th St, PH](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/66-east-11th-st-ph-pj-vj~5781294) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 15 - Description: Kitchen cabinets by Leicht GKC kitchen Designer: Yoram Zioni Counter tops: Calcatta Gold marble Appliances: Miele Floors: White Oak Interior design: Studio Parkington - [Leathers Upper West Side Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/leathers-upper-west-side-remodel-pj-vj~5558046) - Location: New York, NY - Photos: 6 - Description: Modern design kitchen by Leicht Finishes: Combination of Matte frosty white laminate Stone oak wood decor laminate.
