Performance Kitchens & Home

Great people and very good functional and creative design. Project management was good and not great with some communication issues. Their core business is selling cabinets, which were expensive but of excellent quality. Recommended installer was only ok with some minor issues around fit and finish in the installation. Overall very good experience and would recommend enthusiastically.

We had a wonderful experience working with Nancy and Nate at Performance Kitchens and Home to design our dream kitchen.

Thank you Performance Kitchens for helping us emerge from our 1950s kitchen to join the modern 2000s! They helped us design a wonderful kitchen and guided us on materials and placement of cabinets, appliances, tile, etc They were there every step of the way from design concepts until the very end. The contractor that they chose for us was excellent as was his staff of workers. A great team!

We have a fantastic new master bath which was designed and coordinated by Performance Kitchens (PK)). We used PK for our kitchen 20+ years ago and are thrilled we made the decision to use them again. PK's design was fantastic and flawless. The design process went well and was very efficient. PK's detailed design drawings were used by our contractor on a daily basis. PK was great in suggesting colors, style and materials. PK referred us to a phenomenal contractor who we will use again. He was able to deal with the complexities of construction in a large high rise condo building. PK referred us to a awesome tile supplier with an incredible showroom and very helpful sales personnel. PK referred us to a great bath supplier which also had a great showroom where we could choose from actual products as opposed to looking at a catalog. PK coordinated with the contractor throughout the process, made sure we were on schedule and assisted with delivery coordination. PK timely resolved an issue with a delivery mishap perfectly. PK was a pleasure to work with.

I simply love my kitchen. The Performance team is unusual. Each individual brings to the kitchen table (ha!) their own gifts and talented eye. The whole process was collaborative as well. They listened and considered my hopes and dreams and infused it into the design. The team was gentle when I had ideas that would not work — and guided me in the right direction. Each member of the team is meticulous in intention and follow-through — so it made the ride of kitchen renovation an adventure that was exciting. And the results — so pleased and happy!

Working with Performance Kitchens was a pleasure from start to finish. They made the design process very easy. They presented several different design options, which helped us to see all the possibilities. When I picked the design I wanted they did color renderings, so I could see what the final result would look like, it was very helpful. They even helped with decorative decisions, which was greatly appreciated. I was very happy with the whole process, and extremely excited with the end result.

Performance Kitchens did a great job listening to our wants, needs, tastes, and our input to provide us with a great kitchen design that works well for us. Their team of people worked with our builder to expedite special cabinet orders and to get great overall results. They went so far in make sure that our built in dog crates match and work well.

The remodel that Performance Kitchens delivered to me is everything that I had hoped for, and so much more than I could have imaged. They turned my 1978 kitchen into a modern thing of beauty. And then there is the bonus of getting to work with Nancy, Larissa, Kyle, Nate, and Brian - Perfection!

Great designs and execution. The PK&H team showed us the designs and we said, we'd love it if you could get that built. They did. We love our kitchen!

Everyone was easy to work with. The designers were very professional and friendly and were very helpful in my decision making. I would recommend them. When there was a problem with the size of one of the cabinets, the designers came to my house and worked out a solution with my contractor. I love the cabinets. The color renderings were very helpful in letting me see how my kitchen would look. I didn’t think that much could be done in my slim kitchen Philadelphia kitchen, but it looks sensational.

Excellent kitchen designers! Not only are they experts in making your imagination “technically” work, but they also have the artistic gift in bringing beauty to the infinite technical details that are required when creating a new kitchen. I could write much more, though I believe the photos of our beautiful kitchen speak enough.

My new kitchen is a dream come true. Nancy, Nate and Larissa insured that I got all the items on my wish list and helped me not go overboard. They were accessible to me and to the contractor during the entire process to ensure that things went smoothly. My neighbors have been in to see the masterpiece. Their reaction when they come in the door is WOW or Whoa!

We were very happy with the quality of the cabinets and the design services we received at Performance Kitchens. We were hesitant to use PK's design service because we knew how we wanted the kitchen to be laid out and the service was fairly expensive. Ultimately we went with it and were very glad we did. Even within our basic layout there was an extraordinary amount of thought and planning that went into the design - things we would never have thought of like clearances and locations/layouts of certain cabinets. It was also worth the price just to have professionally drawn plans that we could hand over to our contractor. So, in short, great product and great service, albeit a little expensive.

The staff at Performance Kitchens are creative, detail-oriented, and pleasant to work with. Great problem-solvers. Offer helpful suggestions based on experience and expertise. Highly recommend their design services. Important to know that they will not act as general contractor; you will need to do that yourself, or hire someone to do it for you. They do work with local installers, but if there are any hitches -- as there inevitably are -- it can be a bit frustrating to triangulate between Performance Kitchens, the installer, and/or seller or manufacturer. As long as you know that going in, no problem.

I love my new kitchen!! After living in my house for 18 years and always having other projects that needed to be completed, I finally got my new kitchen this summer. After many designs of our own without success, we decided to hire Performance Kitchens. Their entire process from start to finish was the highest quality. Nancy and Larissa are very knowledgeable and very patient with our many questions! During the first meeting, they came up with a wonderful design. Over the next three design meetings, we fine-tuned the design. They listened to our needs and the design reflected them. We were given many different options to select from and they made many recommendations. Did the project go smoothly? Yes and No…two of the cabinets came in from the manufacturer incorrectly built…but Performance got them rebuild and shipped to us within three weeks. One area that Performance measured to be 28 inches ended but only being 24 inches after the tear out of the old kitchen…but our contractor came up with a solution to this issue. Were the cabinets expensive? Yes, the cabinets are expensive because they are custom built and very high quality. No particle board! If you want a well-designed kitchen with quality cabinets, use Performance Kitchens. Was the design service expensive? Yes, but Nancy and Larissa designed a kitchen after listening to our needs and implementing a plan for us. It was worth EVERY penny. The design included things that I never thought of and the solutions were inventive and creative. Performance comes to your house to look at your old kitchen and see how and what is working and not working. Larissa saw my kids come in and dump their backpacks and sneakers in the middle of my kitchen. In addition, using Performance Kitchen Designs saved us from getting divorced...we had no major arguments because we were presented options to choose. When we did not understand something, they explained it to us. No question was considered minor. All our calls were answered with professionalism. Did we go over budget? Yes of course. Plan on an extra 20% over what you budgeted to get the kitchen you want…don’t skimp because you are only going to remodel your kitchen once in a lifetime. But now we have an incredible kitchen. Did we use all their vendors? No, we had our own contractor and use our own counter top company. We did purchase pull handles from them. We got some items online from Amazon or Build.com, because they were less expensive. Would I use them again? Yes, 100% yes. It was worth the money for the design services. Their design was everything I wanted in my kitchen.

The team at Performance did an outstanding job at our home in Fort Washington. After having a very unsatisfactory experience - talk only, no work - with a "design" firm in Spring House, we went to see Performance last May. We wanted our kitchen, laundry room and den renovated, as our 30 year old house badly needed work. There was insufficient room for our pots, pans, plates, etc., little closet space, a dark and tight laundry room, a small pantry and a dreary den. We asked if they could pull the design together and find contractors who could complete the work before Thanksgiving. Very ambitious. However, they laid out a plan, revised it after my spouse decided on a different color scheme, kept us in the loop the entire way, and were on top of the contractors until the job was completed. Before Thanksgiving (even though we expanded the scope). The laundry room, kitchen and den look amazing. so much more light, space, and color. Gorgeous. Our family, neighbors and friends have raved about the beautiful rooms and we couldn't be more pleased. They demand meticulous work from themselves and the contractors. Even better, they are all great to work with. A first rate experience.

I have hired Performance Kitchens 2 times. My first Kitchen was in a small apartment on Rittenhouse Square. They were able to make use of ever inch of space. Even though we thought there was only 1 way it could be designed, they blew us away with 4 very exciting designs. The process was fun because when the design was complete they showed us amazing photographic color pictures of what it was going to look like. When it was finished (which was done in 5 weeks and on budget) the color rendering pictures really looked like the completed Kitchen. When we sold our apartment, it was the kitchen (6 years old) that made the apartment sell very quickly. After moving to south Florida we called on Performance again, having such a great experience before, it was a pleasure to work with Nancy and her talented team of designers again!

We had a wonderful experience working with Performance Kitchens. They had unique ideas that helped us transform our cramped and cluttered kitchen into a beautiful, spacious kitchen with tons of storage and work room. The cabinets are excellent quality and the design was amazing.

Nancy and the team at Performance Kitchen did an exceptional job in providing a new layout and design for our Fairmount home kitchen and dining room. An outdated floor plan was replaced with a spacious contemporary family kitchen. We are thrilled with the results!

Best design company I've ever worked with. Wonderful staff made everything quick and easy. Drawings were flawless. Design was spectacular. Ten out of ten rating across the board.

Kitchen Performance did a beautiful job renovating and updating our kitchen. They were professional and easy to work with, displaying flexibility, knowledge and understanding of our needs. The result it is a beautiful new kitchen! The quality of their work is excellent. We are thankful to Nancy Foreman and her whole team.

Our kitchen and bathroom were long overdue for updating as was the structure of our one bedroom apartment. It was our good fortune to be connected to Performance Kitchens and Home. We benefited from both their design team (who restructured our apartment giving us a more open feel), their cabinetry (which now makes both our kitchen and bathroom sparkle with class), and their wall and floor tile recommendations. The talent, expertise, and professionalism of Nancy, Larissa, and Kyle along with their friendly manner made the entire process warm and relaxing. We have already recommended them to our friends.

We have used Performance Kitchens to renovate a kitchen and living area in 2 different homes, a bathroom and a bedroom over the past 20 years. Just that should tell you how we feel about their talents, quality of the cabinets and the oversight Performance Kitchens has provided over the multiple projects for which we have hired them. The first kitchen they renovated and remodeled for us was a primary reason our house sold in one day. You won't go wrong in having the Forman's remodel your kitchen or any other area in your home.

My husband and I are delighted with our new kitchen. Months ago, when my husband first contacted Performance Kitchen, I was not thinking of a remodeling job, I desired a reimagining of our kitchen space. I couldn’t be more delighted with the results. While the footprint of the kitchen is exactly the same, Performance did a fabulous job utilizing the space within that footprint. Every inch of our kitchen was well thought out by the Performance Kitchen team of designers. Making decisions about Kitchen project renovations can be an exhausting and stressful experience. The Performance Kitchen team of experts guided us step by step through the process and along the way; they created several beautiful and different designs for us to visualize our choices. We were then on our way to having the kitchen of our dreams. We hired our own contractor who became part of the team. Performance provided detailed blue prints and kitchen plans. They worked with our contractor to guide and answer any questions that would develop. There was no room for second-guessing; the kitchen and lighting plans were perfectly detailed. What could go wrong? Nothing! We have an upscale designed kitchen that makes preparing a meal in this newly reimagined space, a work of art. Bravo Performance!

Performance has helped us with multiple projects (kitchen, master bath, dining room, laundry room). Their quality products, design recommendations, and attention to detail are outstanding. Which is why we have become repeat customers.

Trust the professionals at Performance Kitchens! You are in good hands from the moment you walk in the door. Also you get the whole team for the price of one designer! I never used a design firm before and so was a little nervous/intimidated at first. But they make you feel like you are their most important client. They will work with what you have but also offer creative solutions to tricky problems. Believe me, my kitchen was a tricky problem! I could not be happier with the final result. Kudos to everyone at Performance Kitchens & Home!

The team at Performance Kitchens did a masterful job on this project. It was extremely efficient, well thought out and beautifully executed. the team is easy to work with and very skilled at what they do. I could not be happier with how this project tuned out

I have the kitchen of my dreams because of the team at Performance Kitchens & Home. Nancy, Kyle, Larissa and their team walked us through a complete renovation of the kitchen in our 100 + year, West Mt. Airy home. We were nervous, but their ideas and professionalism and honesty about what we could/should do calmed. us. They kept us advised and were respectful of our home and our time. In about 6 weeks, two rooms were beautifully transformed into one amazing space with their practical suggestions for flooring, cabinetry and lighting. Frank Fars, our main contractor, was excellent. He kept the transformation moving. I very highly recommend Performance Kitchens for a creative and quality renovation of your space. Philadelphia Cream Kitchen was a great collaboration.

We hired Performance Kitchens to design our outdated galley kitchen in Philadelphia into a functional, family-friendly space. Performance was tasked with designing different options for a very small, awkward space in our row home in Fairmount. With the help of the design team, they took the time to understand our lifestyle, our wish list and our design goals to create a handful of potential drawings. After considering all of the designs - from the most simplistic to the most dramatic - we decided to go forward with the dramatic space that would completely transform our kitchen from an outdated, dysfunctional, poorly designed space into a life-changing layout that completely opened up the room and created twice the amount of storage in the same square footage. Their creative process was spot-on, the design was functional and esthetically beautiful and the customer care was top-notch. Once the designed was finalized, Performance helped us find the right contractor to deliver on their rendering. We can't thank the team enough. There was a creative collaboration between Nancy, Brian, Larissa, Kyle and Frank that allowed us to feel involved in seeing our design evolve from a dream to our everyday reality. We highly recommend Performance Kitchens and the talented staff. They are the best! Many thanks, William, Colleen and "soon-to-be" Baby Cecilia

Although I didn't have a total remodel of my kitchen or bath, Nancy Forman of Performance Kitchens applied her professional knowledge and experience to work with me in making both spaces more functional and attractive. I would like to add that there is a certain talent Ms. Forman has that goes beyond knowledge and experience, and I watched as she intuitively figured out the best way to create space, flow and beauty in my bath and kitchen. Because of her innate sense of style and fabulous personality I selected a 'five star rating' for Performance Kitchens and Home. Excellent Job!

I met with Performance Kitchen for a kitchen plan that was a tall order! I wanted all the features of a new kitchen squeezed into the space of an old small farmhouse kitchen with a large pantry. Performance Kitchen was the only company (after meeting with several) that was able to give me what I hoped for in a new kitchen. They thought "out of the box" and really delivered a smart design that made excellent use of the space. They made terrific recommendations and suggestions and were a pleasure to work with. They have a staff of really kind, caring people. The kitchen they helped us create really is a beautiful blend of new state of the art comfort and functionality with a bit of old world feel, which is exactly what I wanted. The cabinets met my husbands exceptionally high standards and all my aesthetic needs as well. The lighting plan we purchased has illuminated the space so beautifully and Performance Kitchens had some great ideas for both function and aesthetics of the lighting. The result allows me to create just the right mood and atmosphere that I want with the different lighting fixtures and dimmers. I absolutely love the functionality, flow and feel of my kitchen. Everything looks and works so beautifully. I love relaxing in it and cooking in it as well. There really isn't anything I would change. Performance Kitchens is extremely capable and has all the experience necessary to do a great job. I am sure you will love the results you will get working with this fine organization.

My husband and I thought we could handle the home renovation thing, but we were sorely mistaken. A few years ago we tried to do our bathroom ourselves and it was way more trouble than it was worth and with both of us working full time jobs, took us forever to get done. This time around when we decided it was time for a new kitchen, we were gladly willing to spend the money on a professional. We have sort of an awkward kitchen space in our house so we knew we definitely did not want to go to Ikea or Home Depot to get a generic kitchen. We found Performance Kitchen and Home and decided to go check out their Manayunk show room one day. I was pleasantly surprised with the diversity of kitchen styles in their portfolio. We are SO happy with the job that Performance Kitchen did. They had contractors we could work with and were with us every step of the way and took the time to learn our tastes and exactly what we wanted. The design was beautiful and resulted in our amazing new kitchen that is fully functional and a huge step up from our former space.

After years of procrastination and false starts on remodeling our old and inconvenient kitchen, we hired Performance to help us design a layout that would give us more storage, counters, light and sense of spaciousness without enlarging the actual space or busting our budget. We are very pleased with the end result – our kitchen is a delightful place to be and work. Visitors are in awe and can hardly believe that the room isn’t physically bigger. The people at Performance Kitchens are really good at what they do, and clearly enjoy their work. Our process wasn’t totally stress-free: the disconnect between our dreams and the constraints of space and finances made for a challenging design problem, and we resisted several very creative ideas that Nancy and Kyle developed that didn’t seem to give us everything we wanted for a price we wanted to pay. Eventually we agreed to compromise, eliminating a back stairway entrance to free up wall and corner space and paying more than we’d expected for quality cabinetry. Nancy and Kyle proceeded to produce a detailed plan and a computer image that gave us a near photographic picture of what the kitchen would look like. Their impressive attention to detail and understanding of how things would look and fit helped us choose cabinets and appliances. We didn’t opt for the additional cost of Performance’s Design Services Package or other consultant services, so remaining decisions on materials, decorating and coordination was on us. But their drawings and specifications made the plans easy for our contractors to follow and bid on. “Great,” said one, “they did a lot of our work for us.” The whole construction process took only 5 or 6 weeks.

I hired Performance to redo my kitchen in 2014. Their design was excellent and I would recommend them to anyone. Nancy and Kyle are the best at what they do!

Performance Kitchens and Home came highly recommended to us by our next door neighbors. Their daughter chose Performance after visiting a number of kitchen design places, and in the end she chose them for her kitchen renovation project. We visited their showroom in the Manayunk area of Philadelphia, and wholeheartedly agree; they are OUTSTANDING. Nancy and Brian Forman have a great deal of knowledge and expertise, and they are wonderfully patient, skillful and helpful. They, and their designers, Larissa and Kyle, make an effort to get to know you, your lifestyle, your family and your routine in order to better understand how the kitchen and other spaces in your home work for you. The initial meeting mapped out every step of their process from planning, to kitchen designs to final construction completion. They are creative and clever, coming up with multiple design possibilities for the kitchen and home that maximize spaces for utility and aesthetics. They also were always willing to listen to our ideas and work closely with us to design a kitchen (and family room) that fit our needs. They pay attention to EVERY DETAIL of the project, and are prompt in responding to questions via email and phone. Larissa and Kyle are fantastic designers, helpful, responsive, with sharp eyes for color, design and the overall layout. They make the extra effort to get everything right. They have contractors they will recommend, but we had our own contractor, Philip Congialdi, Inc. and Philip and his co-workers said this was the easiest kitchen they have ever done. In their 30+ years of experience, they have built a lot of kitchens, but because the plans/designs/blueprints were laid out so clearly and in such exacting detail, it was a smooth project from start to finish. It was seamless for us as well because Performance helped us every step of the way. It seems like hundreds, even thousands, of decisions must be made when working on a kitchen and home renovation project, and Performance assisted, consulted and advised on each one. We were so impressed and happy with their work. The kitchen is BEAUTIFUL; we love it, and it has transformed our whole house. They were excellent in every way, and we cannot say enough positive things about them.

I'll start by saying that I don't write letters of praise easily or often but I felt compelled to write this one about Performance Kitchens of Philadelphia. I live on Long Island, NY and was recommended to this company by my wife's cousin. My first concern was that of the logistics involved in creating a custom kitchen using a company that was so far away. Would they be hands on, would the quality be what I expected, was there going to be any issues with my contractor etc? Along with that, was the daunting task of recreating a somewhat small space into the dream kitchen that I envisioned. That was no problem for Performance Kitchen design team who's initial design included sealing up doors, moving walls and ingeniously rearranging every aspect of the kitchen to maximum space. It seemed like they were most comfortable thinking, "Outside the Box" Once the process started, all of my fears were washed away. Not only were there no issues, but I knew EXACTLY what my kitchen was going to look like based on a series of computer renderings that were spot on. My contractor was provided with one of the most detailed set of plans I've ever seen! But I have to say that as awesome as those things were, Performance's Customer Service staff was the BEST! As a home owner, I asked some really silly questions throughout the job, but nothing phased them. Between Nancy, Performance's Head Designer to their two Senior Designers, Larissa and Kyle, every question, concern and issue was addressed in a light handed manner that you often dream about but never get. We watched in amazement as the job progressed and this gorgeous room, like a piece of artwork was created. From a tiny space with a 30" stove/oven combo and a sink, to a kitchen with double ovens, a six burner stove, built in microwave and dishwasher and enough counter & floor space that three of us can create spectacular meals and never bump into one another, the experience and result were wonderful!!! Thank you Performance Kitchens & Home, we think of you everyday!

Can't say enough about Performance Kitchens. The most important thing they did was listen to what we wanted in our kitchen. From there, it was just an absolute pleasure to work with them. The results were just fantastic. We are planning to do our bathroom in 2015 and can't wait to see them work their 'magic' once again.

I used Performance Kitchen and Home to remodel my kitchen and it was seriously the best decision I've ever made. I cannot recommend Nancy and her team enough. I've found that sometimes when working with designers you feel like sometimes they're forcing their taste on yours and I NEVER felt that way working with the team at Performance Kitchen. Every step of the way they listened to what I wanted, took the time to understand my tastes, and the result was an absolutely beautiful kitchen that I love spending time in. I chose Performance Kitchen because they also do custom cabinets. Our old kitchen had sort of a strange lay out and I wanted someone who could completely re-layout the space and build cabinets to fit in it best and that's exactly what they did. My favorite thing is now having the trash can inside of a sliding cabinet as opposed to just sitting out in the open. They were also able to build us this great drawer for spices. Working with Performance Kitchen made the remodel painless and by no means stressful. They have construction crews that they work with so they were able to refer me to one of their trusted contractors too, I didn't have to go find one myself. I would definitely work with Performance Kitchen again in the future, perhaps to re-do my bathroom or home office when the time is right for that.

Our designers love the Weinstein team! Great service for our customers and innovative products. their staff are knowledgeable and help me focus my clients on the big picture.

We chose Performance Kitchens when we wanted to renovate our Manhattan kitchen and we're very glad we did! The kitchen is tiny but they came up with a great design that maximizes storage and counter space. They created a wonderful sleek and modern look that is perfect for the city, and the quality of the cabinets is superb. The whole team were also incredibly responsive and helpful throughout the design and installation process. Many thanks to everyone involved at Performance Kitchens! Carol and Paul

I am a general contractor who installs for performance kitchens On a number of projects . Their products and designs are top of the line and their attention to detail surpasses most in their field. The entire performance team are professional and experts in kitchen and bath design The products in which they supply have a far superior finish than other cabinet lines . These cabinet lines are also extremely well constructed so they last far longer than most other cabinets . I will be using them in my own home kitchen project this year .

I have worked with Nancy and everyone at Performance for about three years. Their attention to detail and the ability to look at a space in a completely different and innovative way is what sets them apart. I would recommend Performance to anyone!

The staff at Performance Kitchens and Home are a wealth of knowledge and endless creativity. They handle all aspects of the job from beginning to end with total professionalism. I have had the opportunity to work with them on many projects. Holly Weinstein Supply

Performance Kitchens really transformed my kitchen. It is now the large eat in kitchen I have dreamed about since I moved in. Nancy is so involved in helping you design and obtain your dream kitchen. You can truly tell that she is passionate about her job. She listened to what I wanted and she made it happen in the most perfect way. Nancy and the entire team worked around my schedule and my needs and I could not have been happier with the results. They worked well within my budget and my high tastes. Nancy and the Performance Kitchens & home team are truly amazing and I would definitely use them again!

We had a very positive experience with all the employees at Performance Kitchen. They were very helpful with many great ideas and suggestions.

We have a 1906 home and renovated our eat-in kitchen and laundry. We needed a better flow and Performance Kitchen helped us do just that! We gutted the entire two areas and put in floors, custom cabinets, granite counters, tile backsplash and all appliances. Our kitchen decor matches and fits with our entire home now. We enjoyed working with Performance Kitchens. Everyone from Nancy and Brian and Larissa and Kyle listened to our thoughts and ideas and we worked as a team to achieve a wonderful, updated kitchen and laundry room. We are excited to have friends and family enter through our new doorways and see such a lovely, warm and updated kitchen. People say it looks like it has always been here, the design is just what we needed and we love it!

Nancy And I met our freshman year at college. She has always been extremely talented and that shows in her business and her photographic artwork. I recently moved back to the Philadelphia area and we will continue to do business together every chance I get. First class, amazing quality and total client satisfaction. Su Rudy Su Rudy Designs, Inc.

There are many remodeling companies in the Philadelphia area, however, none I have found as professional and involved as Performance Kitchens. Nancy is not only knowledgeable, but deeply passionate about her job. I was so impressed with her enthusiasm and felt that she put the effort into my design as she would her very own home. The entire team worked around our needs, and made adjustments to plans as we changed our minds a few times on elements that we wanted added. Their recommendations were spot on, and we are forever grateful for their guidance and exquisite work!

Performance Kitchens did a great job of designing and installing our new kitchen. They were very professional, and hired an excellent contractor who did the work beautifully and in a very timely manner. They went over our planned budget, but the work was excellent.

Brian and Nancy remodeled our kitchen from the ground up. They designed it around the way I use my kitchen taking into account that I was left handed and had 5 kids and pets. Since we are out of town we used our own contractor and Brian communicated with him throughout the project on every detail, including preventing a disaster had the contractor taken a shortcut.

Nancy & Brian of Performance Kitchens had done an amazing kitchen remodel in my 200 year old farmhouse in Pennsylvania in the late 1980's. When I moved to Seattle over a decade later into a much "newer" (1925) house with the original kitchen, I knew exactly who to contact to design my "dream" kitchen. The bi coastal geographic challenge was nothing compared to the space constraints and lack of symmetry throughout the existing structure. To stretch their creativity even more, I wanted to retain the look of the 1920's while incorporating all the modern amenities. The result is brilliant! Not only is it beautiful too look at, but the design and functionality is perfect and easy to maintain. More importantly however, the relationship did not end with the completion of the project almost 10 years ago. Since that time, Nancy & Brian have always been available for questions and advice. I highly recommend them to make your "kitchen dream" come true... No matter if you live on the east or west coast or somewhere in between!

After 43 years living with an 1850 kitchen, the Performance L&H team listened, observed us living and designed the kitchen of our dreams. They not only transformed the center of our home, but our family life as well. What sets PL&H far above their competition is the attention to detail. From the perfectly aligned fit and finish to the clear bumpers on our drawers, I am continually amazing at the "little things" that scream QUALITY and CLASS. PK&H is a Bentley in a world of Chevys and Fords. Best yet highly affordable.

Easy to work with - very professional. Extremely creative designs. Patient. We wanted an open kitchen and did not have a lot of space and they maximized what we had and we actually had much more storage than we ever thought possible. People always comment on our beautiful cabinetry and we especially love the deep drawers. Excellent quality fabrication. What was amazing too was how easy it was to work with Performance Kitchens 3000 miles away - you wouldn't believe how our contractor said their install directions were better than if they were local! No problems whatsoever.

We wanted to take out a wall between our kitchen and dining room to create a larger kitchen. Performance Kitchens designed an amazing plan that transformed our home. in addition to taking out the wall and enlarging the kitchen, they removed a narrow hallway and relocated a closet which gave us even more space! Nancy and the entire team at Performance Kitchens gave us the kitchen of our dreams. Her expertise in design and attention to detail made the project run very smoothly. It was a pleasure working with such an incredibly talented, professional and kind group of people!

- We received hands on, detailed design service. - Up to date design technology to give a virtual image of completed project - Very generous on supplying samples - Cherry wood and material used was of top quality, leading to the exiting kitchen of 14 years to still looking fabulous. - Kitchen completed on a timely bases - Wonderful and fun experience working with Nancy and Brian

Performance Kitchens proves to be so much more than a place that provides beautiful new kitchens. Not only did I get a kitchen that surpassed all my expectations, but I was greatly supported in significantly improving the beauty and overall functioning of my entire living space. Because of their outstanding work, my husband and I additionally asked Performance to provide decorating services for our living room. And then seeing the vast improvement that ensued, we asked them to put in a new bathroom as well. Performance Kitchens provide top quality material and design, and they give this with generosity, kindness, energy, and much caring. Can't imagine better partners for any home project you might have! Judith Miller Ph.D.

Performance Kitchens provided a full service design and installation for the renovation of our home. It was a unique country home with many challenging aspects that needed to worked around. The result was a wonderful functional space that incorporated outside views and light. Our Performance Kitchen became the centerpiece of our home.

From planning to execution a seamless gut kitchen renovation. 15 years later still in fabulous shape both functionally and aesthetically! Took a small NYC kichen and practically doubled the usable space at the same time as making it appear less cluttered.
