### Reviews

**★★★★★ — Audrey Reid, Dec. 2020**

> Deb is skilled designer with a fantastic creative eye. When my Scottsdale home needed a refresh, she was perfect for the job.  As a talented problem solver, she was great at coming up with creative solutions. I also really appreciated the fact that if something wasn't quite perfect, she worked tirelessly to find just the right piece. On time and on budget, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her!

**★★★★ — Stacy Moskowitz, Nov. 2020**

> Deb at Affordable Chic is a true professional and we really enjoyed working with her. She helped us bring our kitchen and media/game room ideas to life. The subs she contracts were honest, reliable and courteous. We appreciated her guidance and expertise throughout and are very happy with the final product. The only reason for four stars instead of five is she was relocating from Phoenix to Minneapolis while our project was going on and that created a few speed bumps - nothing that wasn't solved. I have no doubt that if Deb was here the entire time, there would have been no challenges. We would recommend Deb to others.

**★★★★★ — Mark Mark, Nov. 2019**

> Deb is a true professional and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great Interior Designer!
> Deb spent about an hour during an initial consultation visit and was able to immediately visualize exactly what this home needed without doing a complete remodeling or makeover.  She has a great eye and a great instinct to recognize what it takes to make a house look and feel like a home.
> Deb also has high integrity and ethics.  She is very honest with her fees and household purchases… her character is impeccable!
> The added bonus is that she was fun to work with and a pleasure to be around, I would use her again in a heartbeat!

**★★★★★ — Theresa and Jim Schoenfeld, Sept. 2019**

> We have worked with Deb since 2014 on a number of projects big and small.
>  We love her creative vision and her ability to explain it clearly to us.
> Deb always has a smile and is a pleasure to work with along with her many crew members. They are very easy to have in your home.
> In the future we would always choose Deb to decorate for us.

**★★★★★ — Sue, Sept. 2019**

> I have hired Affordable Chic for numerous projects including kitchen and bath remolding, flooring, lighting and closets. The work was always completed on time with expert subs. Most importantly working with the owner and operator of Affordable Chic was an absolute pleasure. You will glad you hired her.

**★★★★★ — Christi Robinson, Aug. 2019**

> Deb with Affordable Chic helped us remodel and decorate multiple areas of our home.  She remodeled our kitchen, living room area and redecorated throughout the entire home. She was very easy to work with and always eased my mind in making choices on the right colors/decor. All crew was prompt, courteous and very easy to work with. I would highly recommend her.

**★★★★★ — sjtalbott, April 2018**

> Deb Gronseth of Affordable Chic turned my brand new empty townhouse into a home.  I loved working with her and recommend her highly.  A+

**★★★★★ — Katherine, Jan. 2018**

> I have worked with Deb on several projects and have been very happy with her work. She is professional, very knowledgeable and easy to work with.   If there were any issues she dealt with them promptly.

**★★★★★ — Robb Z, Aug. 2017**

> We recently remodeled our upstairs, including the master bath, children's bathroom, flooring in 4 bedrooms, hallway and staircase.  Deb was very professional, honest and trustworthy.  We gave her a color scheme and she brought it to life!  Deb kept us informed daily and finished the project as promised on time.  Her crew was prompt, courteous and provided a high quality of workmanship.  We absolutely love our remodel and would highly recommend Deb!

**★★★★★ — Ryan Jones, May 2017**

> Deb is fantastic and knowledgeable! My wife and I very much enjoyed our experience. We look forward to the next phase!

**★★★★★ — Valorie Moore, April 2017**

> Deb has been awesome. We started with just a few items we wanted updated in our new house and she and her contractors did such a good job we kept adding things to the list until we finally have our dream home. Each time we come up with a new project she has wonderful insight and ideas to help make our vision clearer and come to life. She's so sweet and we have loved working with her.

**★★★★★ — sg\_solomon, Feb. 2017**

> Deb created a great design, provided samples and suggestions and delivered a remodel on time.  Her team were skilled and efficient.  Completely satisfied and excited  with my new master bath and kitchen and updated guest bath.
