Reviews of Designer Appliances: Appliance Store
Andy Rakoto
I bought a cooktop with Joseph and recently a dishwasher with Cynthia. I’m happy on how fast they were able to deliver the product specially with Cynthia. My lead time was 3 months but she was able to get it to me in less than a month.
However, I wasn’t very happy with the installation of my dishwasher, the installer didn’t care about my cabinets, left a nail holes.
Julianne Markow
My experience with Designer Appliances and Cinthya has been fantastic. Even with all the shortages and delays I’m hearing from others, our Café induction cooktop, range hood, refrigerator, and dishwasher all came within a month of ordering, and faster than I was originally told! The only thing we had to wait for (3 months) was our wall oven and that came within the time frame I was told. When we took the plastic off of our fridge we noticed a big scratch on the panel, DA sent us a brand new door panel and a technician to come install it. I highly recommend DA to everyone who needs a kitchen appliance!
Joshua Sherman
Russell was fantastic! Very knowledgeable about all the products, and was able to help us reach a quick decision (and get quick delivery) on new laundry machines. He had a wealth of insight into kitchen appliances as well. He was very welcoming, and spent as much time with us as we needed to ensure we were making the right choices. The showroom was warm and inviting, and their online product information was full of detail making comparison easy.
Tyrone Alomia
Excellent selection! Russell was amazing his knowledge was off the charts. He gave us tons of pro and cons with all the product we inquired about and helped us make the best educated choice as possible!
Jonathan Brunkhorst
Had a great experience working with Russell in purchasing a new washing machine. I had done a little research myself and Russ provided some helpful insights and recommendations. He really took time to talk to us, answer all our questions, and even gave some advice and contacts for a future kitchen remodel. Overall, he was a real pleasure to work with and the price I got on the machine was very competitive!
Iris Shih
When our 20+ year old refrigerator died suddenly, Designer Appliances came through for us. After calling a few stores in the area and being forewarned about low stock and shipping delays that could result in not being able to get anything for months, we visited Designer Appliances where Russell quickly helped us find what we needed. We were able to identify a new fridge from a reliable, reputable company that fit our wants—and more importantly, our atypical kitchen dimensions—that could be delivered in less than a week. Relief! Thanks so much for a smooth, positive experience all around.
Jen McMahon
Wonderful experience working with Designer Appliances from start to finish. The showroom is quite large and features all of the top brands. We worked with Joe and Russell, both were very professional and provided excellent customer service. Very happy customers! Will recommend to all of our friends and family.
Kathy Tyahla
I would highly recommend Designer Appliances. I was greeted nicely by Ned Salem when I entered the store and he assisted me in choosing my new range/stove. It was delivered and installed within the week. The process was a very easy one. No stress. If I need another new appliance in the future, I will definitely purchase from Designer Appliances again.
Peter Willcox
When our new refrigerator did not work properly, Ned Salem at Designer Appliances was most helpful in quickly arranging a replacement! He assured us that all would be taken care of, and it was. This kind of professional, personal service is what we were hoping for when we chose DA and we were not disappointed. Delivery service was also very professional, with great communication and a knowledgeable, efficient delivery team.
Patrick Lundell
Russel was awesome! Went in late on a Sunday with a couple of questions about stackable washer dryers. Was able to help me out quickly and find a great combo. Delivery is awesome as they hold the appliances when we are ready for the install. Way better than other stores. Would recommend a visit.
erika miller
Russell was extremely knowledgeably, very responsive and super helpful. He was concerned about selling for our needs as opposed to up selling us which was a breathe of fresh air. He listened during our phone interactions and was patient when showing us the different appliance options in the showroom. Highly recommended.
David Cantor
Customer service from this place was top-notch. Joseph Vizcaya was the sales rep who helped me with two orders. The first time, months ago, I placed an order for a new Bosch dishwasher, I needed to cancel the order within a few days, b/c my machine started working again. He was helpful throughout the process and I received a full refund. When my machine finally quit on me, I called Designer Appliances again and asked for Joe who hooked me up with the right machine which was installed today. Thanks Joe for your help
Anthony Cousins
With supply chains backed up, Russell was the only sales person that I called that gave us our options and was willing to work with us. I must have called 15 places before that all said "Sorry" and leaving us high and dry. Russell listened to our needs and sold us a washer and dryer that we now love. We also got it delivered within a couple of days when every other store was telling us months. Highly recommend!
Lynn Burns
I’ve been so pleased with Designer Appliances on two occasions! Last year I purchased a refrigerator that was hard to find and I absolutely love it! Just recently I had the pleasure of dealing with a lovely salesperson, Ned Salem. He’s been amazing and I highly recommend this business! I’ll be getting a combo oven/microwave in a few weeks that no one else had in stock!
Cryslunsford
Happy to have worked with Ned at Designer Appliances on my recent dishwasher purchase. He was able to thoroughly answer my questions comparing brands and features. After searching for months only to find most models i was interested in, out of stock across the market, i was pleased to find Designer Appliances had the exact model i wanted in stock and delivered with a week. Customer service has been thorough and attentive
Miko Dimitrijevic
Designer Appliances is our go to place.
Everyone is very knowledgeable and you get one on one personal service. There is no pressure to make a purchase, you just get facts, very competitive pricing and honest opinions. We have bought several appliances from the showroom store and they have all been delivered quickly and without issue. Buy with confidence.
Maxime Delaunay
We were looking to replace our dishwasher and looking for a place to do it locally. Designer Appliances in town had very high recommendations.
We weren’t disappointed. They truly lived up to their reputation, especially thanks to Ned Salem who helped us and guided us with options based on availability, and helped us make the decision on the make of model.
Ned’s service didn’t end there. Ned came back to us with a better model and faster delivery than the model we had originally chosen.
He kept us informed of the delivery challenges due to inventory, timing, etc… and coordinated the installation. The installation went very well thanks to Danny.
I highly recommend Designer Appliances and particularly Ned.
Lucy M
I've been looking for a specific dishwasher for over a year- I have been waiting on multiple appliance stores' fulfillment- each of whom had told me that nobody is getting that dishwasher, and that I just had to wait. I reached out to Ned from Designer Showroom who told me he happened to be getting them in, AND that he would be able to send it to me in a week. I am now using the dishwasher that nobody was able to get their hands on for over a year. (May 2021- August 2022 and still counting!) Not only that, but I ordered some other appliances from him, which he was able to price match AND give me further reductions. I am so, so happy with my purchase. I will definitely be contacting Ned for future appliance purchases!
Marian Mignano
I could not be more pleased with the service. Mr. Ned Salem has helped me with the appliance selections and his help has been invaluable. He has been great and you are lucky to have him. I can recommend Designer Appliances and give it the highest rating.

Where do I start??? We have been searching for a Bosch 800 series dishwasher for almost a month and for some reason designer appliances didn’t come up as the top seller(?). Spent another 2.5hours today calling different sellers before saw this company. Long story short, I placed the order in less than 5 mins after speaking to them. Ned Salem is the sales person that you need to speak to. Highly respectful!!!! Thank you, Ned for your patience and understanding. We greatly appreciate this.
Christine O'Neill
We used designer appliances in November 2020 to purchase a new refrigerator when ours died basically immediately after moving into our first home. We had previously employed a plumber to repair the water line, but the delivery personnel from Designer Appliances advised us that the repair was done incorrectly and we still had a leak. They saved us from a huge headache and additional water damage down the road.
We were just faced with replacing our washer and knew we had to come back for their expertise and unparalleled customer service. I spent most of yesterday working with Ned Salem to find the right washer and dryer combo for us. Only our washer was broken, but because we live in Jersey City, we have a stacked washer and dryer unit and were very limited in what units we can fit in our small space.
Ned went above and beyond to research whether our current model was still available (unfortunately it was discontinued) so we needed to replace both units. He also helped me find an option with a vented dryer because based on my research those tend to have much better drying times.
After several quotes, emails, and phone calls, I was confident that Ned helped us settle on the right combination for our home. We are awaiting delivery next week.
I continue to be impressed by the five star service we have received from Ned and the team at Designer Appliances and we will certainly be using them again for any future needs!
John B
Russell is the man! I would give 10 stars if possible. I am a salesman myself as a career and honestly I am constantly
frustrated when dealing with other sales reps. Working with Russell was absolutely terrific. Zero complaints and I highly recommend giving Russ a shout to meet your appliance needs!
Nicole Kimball
I just had the best experience buying appliances from Designer Appliances. It started with a simple chat question and ended exactly 2 weeks later with my new appliances installed. I was in the market for a new Bosch dishwasher. I had been to 7 stores close to my home. None had a floor model for me to look at and I was told by all of them that the dishwasher I wanted wouldn't be available for 6 months or more. I expanded my search and found DA. When the chat popped up, I had but one question;
Do you have this specific Bosch in stock?Ned Salem quickly replied yes. I was shocked. Not only was it in stock, he had it in the Montclair showroom to look at. I went that same day and met Ned in person. Ned helped me purchase a better model Bosch dishwasher for less money and a new stove to boot. Ned was patient, knowledgeable, and honest. He did not try to steer me towards brands I was not interested in or that were out of my budget. When I decided to add a new range hood when the dishwaher and stove were ready to schedule for delivery, Ned quickly worked with me to find the best one in stock with the features I wanted, he price matched the competition, and coordinated the delivery. The Saturday delivery and installation went so smoothly. The installers were polite, neat, and knowledgeable. Ned even followed up after the install was completed to make sure we were 100% satisfied with the job. I could not be more thrilled with Designer Appliances, Ned's excellent customer service, and their delivery and installation service. I highly recommend them!
Stephanie Colonese
This is the second time my husband and I are purchasing from Designer Appliances. We bought a stove last year and just came in today for a new washer & dryer. Both times Russell was very knowledgeable and helpful and made the process smooth and easy. We’ll be purchasing all future appliances from them.
Renée Monrose
Ned Salem went above and beyond by sending me videos of how my Miele washer and dryer would work, should I buy them. Once I did, he was extremely helpful in arranging the delivery. He also quickly put me in touch with customer support when I had a question. He was available even at night to answer my other questions. Thanks to Ned, this was a seamless experience. Designer Appliances delivered on time, installed the washer and dryer, and made sure they worked before leaving. I highly recommend Ned and D.A.
Sarah B.
Designer Appliances is fantastic to work with. I have found Russ to be honest, efficient, and very knowledgeable about a wide range of equipment. Having worked with other appliance vendors in the tri-state area, I can confidently say that Russ and Designer Appliances are the best!!
JR Caiafa
Russel took care of us like I could not believe I would never buy appliances anywhere else. The selection that they have and their customer service is second to none. My wife and I are in the process of building our dream home and this experience made it even better.
kathleen marin
Couldn’t be more please with purchase and installation process with Designer Appliance! Samantha was very knowledgeable on product selection and installation challenges we were having. We were able to secure appliances in a timely manner. Danny, the installer, was able to use his expertise to problem solve for a successful completion of job!!
Beth Adelman
I live in Brooklyn and Designer Appliances is in NJ, but it ended up being my go-to to buy my new stove. My apartment is up one flight of stairs and in my narrow kitchen the refrigerator doors needed to be removed. No local stores wanted to do it (or wanted to charge me a huge extra delivery charge). Ned at Designer Appliances worked out a reasonable charge for the delivery, promised they would do whatever needed to be done (including move the refrigerator), and got my new stove in place for me the day before Thanksgiving. He saved my holiday. Can't recommend them highly enough!
Pritha Gopalan
Very good experience replacing a broken dishwasher. Great range of products at good prices, Ned at the Montclair store helped me find what I needed, and arranged everything seamlessly. The installation was also expertly done by Danny. These folks know their work for sure!
Shital Lakhani
Working with Russell Berta has been so lovely. He promptly helped with the right selection of high-end appliances, kept us informed on timelines along the way, informed us of the right warrantees and even helped with post-delivery support. I would recommend Designer Appliances to anyone looks to renovate. Purchases included wolf stove, wolf ovens, Miele dishwashers, subzero fridge / freezer / wine cooler and Miele washer/dryers.
Maryann Faith
Russ was GREAT! Answered all our questions and assisted us making decisions for our new appliances. Very knowledgeable and no pressure salesman. Thanks so much! We will be referring all our family and friends!
Julia Gomez
I just ordered my fourth appliance set from this store. Once again I had Russell help me choose the right washer/dryer. Russell was extremely helpful in explaining the key differences between the washer/dryers I was interested in. Great customer service and top notch appliances. Thank you once again.
Quynh Mai
Ned S. is helpful, thoughtful and responsive! We just moved to NJ from NYC and he helped us with all our appliances. When we were delivered a faulty item, he fixed it right away. Will be a loyal customer from now on!
Melinda Connolly
Designer Appliances makes the researching and purchasing of outdoor grills and other home appliances so easy! I have recently had the pleasure of working with Ned in the Upper Montclair store. His knowledge of the products, theirs costs, capabilities and serviceability was outstanding, as was his follow through. I will continue to use Designer Appliances as my go to for my home as needed.
Jon Steller
Russ was extremely helpful in helping pick out a new dishwasher. He was was delightful to speak with and very knowledgeable about Miele washers! If you go to DA make sure to ask for Russ!
Brittany Melhado
Ned was very knowledgeable and helpful with researching products that would fit in our space. He was always very responsive through email and easy to get in touch with on the phone upon an issue with installation. I would definitely contact Ned again in the future!
Liskain Garcia
I am remodeling my kitchen and I wanted to buy my Miele appliances and I went to Designer Appliances, there I was attended by Ned Salem and the truth is that I was super impressed by his very good professionalism, knowledge of the products, very good customer service, in just 30 minutes already I had the estimate. I recommend this place if you need any brand of appliances go to this place and you will not regret it. For the place and the seller Ned I give 💯
Gina Lee
I thought I would simply order online and be dealt with by an automated system for the most part, but to my surprise, Designed Appliances connected me with one of their representatives Ned Salem, who turned out to be so incredibly helpful. Having a direct contact allowed me to navigate unexpected hiccups without too much difficulty. Because of the ongoing global supply chain issues, some of the items I wanted were not readily available. Ned searched high and low for the items and, when something was just not available for wks to months, he gave me some recommendations for alternatives. He didn't push me to spend more or anything, he just assessed my needs and gave me really good recommendations that were within budget, good quality, and had the specific functions that I really wanted. He was also very quick in helping with all this, knowing that I had some urgency and deadlines to meet, and had good sense of humor through high and low. He responded to my emails right away and kept me updated on the status throughout. In retrospect, I don't know how I thought I would manage all this without help. Thanks Ned!
Emily Isovitsch - Marsac
We originally went into designer appliances to have a look around and hopefully learn about dishwashers. Ned helped us immediately and was incredibly helpful. We left ready to confidently ready to make a purchase. Thank you!
Joel Stahmer
We are in the middle of renovations and had enormous trouble finding the Bosch dishwasher we wanted -- our contractor said that none would be available for the next eight or nine months. I immediately got on the Internet, did some searching, and found a really nice website for Designer Appliances, which is a real store based in Montclair, New Jersey. Ned Salem, the salesperson who picked up the phone, listened attentively and said he had exactly what we needed but it was coded by Bosch slightly differently because Designer Appliance is not a "big box" store. Long story short, Ned arranged to have the dishwasher sent to us and we had it within the next seven days. Five star service plus pleasant and friendly service from a company that considers customer service first. And the delivery was free! FCS, Hightstown, NJ.
Ilyas Akbar
Ned Salem helped us pick out great appliances for our new kitchen. He helped us sort through various options to select the right fit for our needs and budget. It was a great experience
Samrat Vohra
Amazing experience with the whole team. Ned specifically has been great! He has been very helpful throughout the whole process and kept me in the loop on all updates related to my order.
Joe Doubek
Cinthya was fantastic. She had great product knowledge and took all of the time needed to ensure our selections matched our needs. We highly recommend using her and Designer Appliances.
Dara Siva
It was a pleasure working with Russell at DA Montclair. He simplified selecting kitchen appliances and put us at ease with his industry knowledge and experience! Highly recommend.
KJ Park
Designer Appliance (“DA”)was close to an hour from our home, but it was well worth the drive.
We first visited DA to compare different appliance brands, Viking, Thermador, Bosch, Samsung, LG, etc, and DA was one of the authorized Miele dealers in Northern Jersey. We were greeted by Cinthya, who answered all questions and helped us to understand pros and cons of each brand.
We conveyed to Cinthya that we weren’t planning to buy immediately, and we were in the shop-around stage. However, Cinthya, nicely and professionally, still spent an 1-2 hours helping us to understand our appliance choices.
In the end, we happily walked out with a range and a dishwasher that wasn’t in our day’s plan.
But it was the after-purchase that we were even more pleasantly surprised with. Cinthya got back to us immediately with emails, calls, questions, invoices and any follow ups that was needed. She made sure everything, including delivery dates, parts, etc were all properly arranged and followed up. There were a couple of Google reviews that said that DA’s follow up was bad, but there’s a reason why they have 600+ 5-star reviews. Our experience was 5-star, if not a 10-star, if I could give them.
For those that aren’t getting emails responses from DA, give them a quick call. They use a couple of different email client (programs), and one of them might’ve not worked properly. 🤣 Cinthya sent me two same emails from two different programs, and one worked and the other didn’t. It’s possible that they followed up, and just didn’t get to your inbox.
I highly recommend DA & Cinthya and will surely come back to future appliance purchases!
cjhockley
Russell was amazing to work with. He was helpful in figuring out what we needed and very fast to get me a quote and ordering. Thank you!

Nothing but positive things to say about Russell. He was able to find the products I was looking for in a short timeline and was amazing with his customer service from start to finish. Thanks for everything!
Suela Thomas
Cinthya Guallpa was extremely helpful with the purchase of several appliances for our new home. Installation was done professionally and quick. I look forward to doing business with them again.
Nicola Lynch
I worked with Ned when looking to replace my stove for my home. He was attentive, helpful, respectful and worked with me to find the right range for my needs. I recommend Designer Appliances and Ned as a sales representative.
Andrew Lee
Very impressed with the service I received at Designer Appliances in Montclair. Russ Berta assisted us with the purchase of 2 appliances and was extremely knowledgeable, friendly and efficient. Thank you!
Linda Galasso
I've worked with Ned Salem over the last several weeks to help me select the right kitchen appliances for my needs. Ned has been very responsive and knowledgeable all the way and I look forward to working with him and Designer Appliances again in the future.
Daniel Kaplan
Russ was great helping us select and purchase a new dishwasher. Such an easy shopping experience!
Michael Wooldridge
We came to designer appliance with a difficult problem and could not have solved it without Russell’s guidance. In addition, Russell was diligent about presenting options across the price spectrum and helping to guide me to the right one for my home.
Thoughtful, honest, and attentive. Really could not ask for more. A great experience with Russell at designer appliance and we will be going back for our next purchase.
jonathan swack
Designer appliances is a pleasure to deal with.
Great prices and the finest products available anywhere.
My most recent purchase was another example of their willingness to make me a happy customer.
I was assisted by Russell Berta. He is bright, patient, enthusiastic and extremely knowledgeable.
I did my homework and after discussing my needs, budget and expectations with him I made my purchases.
I thank him for his help and highly recommend giving him a call.
Monique Edwards
I entered Designer Appliances thinking I would purchase one brand of appliances for my kitchen renovation. But thanks to Russell’s expert guidance and advice, I was able to purchase a superior brand and, with discounts applied, it was not much more than what I was prepared to spend initially.
Russell has been an absolute joy to work with – staying in touch with me about the status of my order, as well as showing great flexibility on my appliance delivery dates as part of the project got pushed back.
Highly recommend!
Darshan Patel
Russell was incredible to work with! I walked in and was greeted immediately. Even though this particular show room had limited outdoor products, he offered to educate me on the different brands. No sales pitch, just basic information to help me make my own decision. Put together an offer, got me a terrific deal, confirmed availability. I was out within 15-20 minutes with everything I needed for my outdoor kitchen. Made some adjustments and was responsive the whole time!
Jennifer F
We have been working with Russell to purchase a new range and fridge and the experience has been very pleasant so far. Our requirements are somewhat tricky because we're looking to add new appliances to an existing kitchen design that has its share of quirks - and finding a range that will work in the space has been challenging. Russell has a lot of patience and is willing to help find the best options (size and price) for our needs, going so far as to give us the contact information for one of his installers so that he can look at our space prior to our purchase and confirm that our selections will fit.
D
Fantastic experience with Russell at Designer Appliances. Quick, painless, friendly and profession service when we stopped in to purchase a dryer. Russell was able to find a unit that was available to be delivered and installed with a few days, lots sooner than the estimate from the box stores. Designer Appliances is now my go-to local place if I ever need another appliance.
Jeffrey Dobin
Russ at Designer Appliances has been absolutely awesome to work with. Provided us with a wonderful education of options and helped us to find our perfect kitchen. While other people/places were salesy and pushing product, Russ really listened to our needs and suggested ways to pull it all together. Excellent experience all around and would highly recommend! Thank you!!
Amy Parsol
Had a great experience purchasing a washer and dryer today. Came in frantic because my washer broke and Russell guided me to purchase a new one. Everything took less than 30 minutes and I am getting it delivered in a few days which I didn’t think was possible these days. Highly recommend this place. Thank you again!!
Elizabeth Bunnell
We had a really lovely visit to Designer Appliances. It was so easy and Russell was so knowledgeable and friendly with absolutely no pressure. We were able to interact with the products and he helped us understand the pros and cons of each. Russell also helped us navigate the installation and payment options with no stress. I would recommend this experience over a big box retailer any day. Thank you!
Abby Rennert
Wonderful experience with Montclair location and Russ! Stopped in to see some appliances in person that I had been checking out online and met Russ. He took his time, listened, was thoughtful about which brands offered the best packages and quality, and answered all of my many questions. Compared to big box stores where they don't have what I am looking for on display and most sales people don't know anything or online where the reps don't listen and just want to sell you what is in stock, my experience with Designer Appliances and Russ was so refreshing - the store has so much on display and Russ was friendly, knew what he was talking about, and took the time to explain and figure out what worked best. Finally, the fact that you can order now, but not have delivered until later is an incredible benefit.
Merri Fogel - Alt
Russell Berta, a designer at Designer Appliances helped me create my dream kitchen. He was extremely knowledgeable, understood my needs and respected my budget. He guided me through the entire project in record time, and offered his expert opinion as to what to get, and managed to secure appliances within record breaking time! He took the stress out of the renovation process. I highly recommend Designer Appliances as the first and only place to go when considering a kitchen makeover. Ask for Russell Berta to work with you, a true professional who knows how to get the job done the right way. Thank you Russell!
Stephanie Mannino
It was fantastic working with Russell, who helped me order a new refrigerator that needed to fit within the specific dimensions of an existing cutout in my kitchen. He was able to quickly locate the refrigerator and check inventory for me, give me a sense of when I could expect it to arrive, and arrange for delivery and installation. Within a few hours I received a call to schedule a date for delivery within the week. A great experience!
Rosaria Smeraglia
Would definitely use them again. I purchased my Weber grill from them and they were accommodating and very easy to work with. My sales person Russell was very informative and got back to me quickly when I had questions. Delivery was great also… I would definitely use them again.
Sarah Barrett
Whenever we need help with ANYTHING appliance related, we call Russell at Designer Appliances. He is always able to get us what we need, quickly and reliably, and often makes magic happen for us when we have issues. He is a pleasure to work with, responds quickly and makes it a priority that we are taken care of.

I called Designer Appliances looking for specific models of washer and dryer that all other places had on backorder. I spoke with Cynthia, who told me that both machines were in stock and could be at my home within the week. The entire transaction was quick and smooth and entirely over the phone. Cynthia was extremely responsive, answered all my questions and very lovely to deal with. I would highly recommend Designer Appliances.

Our experience with Designer Appliances has been great. We stopped by the Montclair show room on Wednesday and our new washer/dryer were installed on Monday. A life saver! Russ was very nice to talk to and work with. He provided us with professional advice for making the most educated decision. He also stayed in the loop even after our case was handed over to the scheduling team.

Russ with the save!
we went to Montclair branch of DA and were again pleased with our final result. Decided on a higher end brand range and hood combination and within days changed our mind on the brand. We ended up with a different brand hood and range. One feature on the range did not function as advertised and after attempting a repair, they replaced the entire unit without a fuss. We are very happy with our final product.
Thank you to Russell Berta - you delivered as usual. and shout out to Linda in customer service for helping us with the replacement.
This is my 3rd purchase of appliances at DA and I will go to Russ every time.

Great customer service! Glad we stopped by the store. Russell was extremely knowledgeable and patient. He took the time to guide us through different options, highlighting pros and cons, ahead of our purchase. When you are spending so much money and time in remodeling a kitchen, it is important (peace of mind) to get this kind of advice.
Lucas Dietrich
Highly recommend this store. We've been dealing with Russell in the Montclair store. He's knowledgeable, patient and has been extremely easy to work with. He is no way pushy, but at the same time isn't scared to give us his opinion. At this point he has helped navigate us on multiple appliances, picking devices, brands as well as helping us to time the purchase for best deals. Communication is organized and quick as well.
Kenia Canales
Russell was an exceptional specialist! He guided us thoroughly with our purchase and was patient with all of our questions and concerns. We are in love with our new washer and dryer! Thank you!
Thomas Place
Russell was the man and took care of us in a professional manner. It was a pleasure to speak to a sales rep who was knowledgeable about their product... this is hard to come by now a days. My wife and I were very happy with Designer Appliances and Russell our salesman. Two thumbs up.
Kim Charles
Russell B. has been fabulous at helping us sort through the myriad of options for kitchen appliances. He was happy to answer our endless questions, spoke honestly about pros and cons of various products, and helped us purchase appliances at competitive prices! He and Designer appliances have be a pleasure to work with!
Monika Rut
Russell Berta was fantastic to work with. Personalized experience and regular follow up for my large purchase. He went out of his way to provide most accurate and up to date information regarding availability and shipping and kept me in the loop at all times. Designer applicatiances is great to work with. Will update once I receive my order but so far very happy with the service.
Michael Cerbelli
Ned - You rock - thank you for the quick turnaround and speedy delivery - DA rocks! Now let's start designing the kitchen!! M.

My husband and I meant with Russell at the Montclair showroom and it was such a pleasant experience! He was able to help us order all the appliances we need for our kitchen renovation. He was flexible with his schedule even offering to come in early on Sunday to meet us so we could still make it to church! As a Montclair resident I’m so happy to have this location close to home!
Thank you Russell!
Christine Kim
A Cut Above the Rest! My husband and I visited the Montlcair showroom which is very beautiful. You will be met by gorgeous high-end appliances all around you and will be greeted by an expert guide who makes sure you are in the know. Russ was our consultant who helped us with all things appliances. My husband and I were on a time crunch and a budget crunch to close on a house. We needed a stove, a fridge, a dishwasher, and a washer- dryer set. It can be scary to spend a pretty penny. But when you are given the knowledge and options by someone who knows how to get you the best appliances for your budget, it speaks volumes about customer service that you can't get anywhere else. Russ was amazing in listening to our needs and pretty much guided us in choosing the best appliance with our preferred specs, our budget, and time crunch. Russ really took all of our stress and converted it to only solutions. He arranged for a delivery date that was pretty much impossible considering real world supply line delays. Super grateful...we plan on purchasing from them in the future for our future projects. Thanks so much, Russ!

Two Contrasting Locations:
I am in the middle of a home remodel and needed two complete kitchens.
While researching appliances I came across Designer Appliances and was very impressed with their educational YouTube content.
I decided to take the trip to their flagship store in NJ and meet with a salesperson to discuss my options. I was assigned to Jill and I emphasized that I was looking for value and was not looking for the cutting edge and didn't mind sacrificing decor for functionality.
I felt like I had to nudge her along every step of the way to get to a mediocre answer. The moment I stopped talking there was an awkward silence. I heavily relied on the information I learned on the Designer Appliances YouTube and blog to ask key questions. It left me with impression that she was more of an interior designer than knowledgeable enough to tell me key differences between the appliances she was there to sell. She had jotted down a whole page of notes of what I needed/like to have. We exchanged contact information to arrange a quote. Needless to say I never heard from her.
I didn't let that experience deter me from trying out their boutique location in Montclair, NJ. Mainly because I was so confused and perplexed on how I was treated yet everything else [reviews, YT, blog] seemed so honest and positive. I AM GLAD I WENT BECAUSE IT WAS A NIGHT & DAY EXPERIENCE! I was greeted by Russell and was treated as a customer instead of a "window shopper". He asked a lot of questions, made recommendations and showed genuine interest in solving my pain points.
Russell performed a induction cooking demo for my other family members present to display the pros and cons. (I had asked for one in the previous location but didn't get it.) He also advised me on certain manufacturer specials. We exchanged contact information and after ironing things out and focusing on what I would eventually need. I have an order in for almost 20k of product.
The TLDR of this review is give this place a shot. If things don't go well, this is not a wholistic reflection of the company. Try another person or go to their other location and you will get a great price and much better service.
Horace Chang
We were shopping to replace our leaking dishwasher. The showroom is beautifully setup and displayed. Russ is resourceful, responsive and provide good recommendation on the alternative due to global supply chain issue on a long lead time brand. The purchasing process was quick, easy and flexible. I can do the entire purchase online with the information provided by Russ. This is a good shopping experience compare to those big store which sell everything and the sales are not expert on anything.
Jennifer Frieder
We worked with Russell who was great to work in finding and purchasing new appliances for our kitchen. He was super communicative, helpful and patient and gave us great pricing. Amazing customer service --will recommend and be a repeat buyer for any additional appliances that we need.
Kate Martinez
Russell has been a terrific partner in helping get our kitchen project off the ground. In this particularly challenging season to secure vendors and move forward on home projects, he patiently answered questions and checked in as needed. As we struggled over several months to confirm many other details, we were confident in the knowledge that Russell was standing by and our appliance order was in good hands until we were ready to move forward. Thus far, it has been the easiest and most seamless part of this whole project!
Takafumi Hashimoto
Russ was extremely helpful, he made the process of buying a washer a breeze. He was very knowledgeable and I’m thankful for his suggestions. Scheduling delivery and installation was quick and easy. Will definitely shop here again.
Vincenza Puglia
We were very fortunate to have found Designer Appliances and your sales associate, Russ Berta. We needed a slide-in range ASAP. We were disappointed after going to several appliance stores with the available inventory and customer service. Russ Berta was very personable, accommodating, knowledgeable, and made us feel valued. He gave us options that met all of our requirements, gave detailed information and we are able to get our range within a few days. We are very appreciate of Russ' help and exceptional customer service!
M Justice
I purchased 3 beautiful appliances (Bosch and Samsung) and received white glove service from Russell Berta. It's now 6 months later, and I'm very happy with the purchase, in which Russell provided guidance and suggestions. Russell came highly recommended by my cabinet provider who has worked with him for many years. I could not be more satisfied with his professionalism at our first visit to the showroom, where we decided on everything the same day. He hooked us up with amazing deals, and took care of everything. Delivery and installation went as planned... Fast forward, I needed to call him 6 months later and he immediately remembered me (call was answered quickly!) and he helped out with another request.
Having worked in fields which required excellent customer service, I can't tell you how much I appreciate someone like Russell. Last, prior to this experience, I worked with another local (type) provider who I was pleased with but they retired. Previously, I was loyal to them for over 20 years and I'm happy to have someone with similar knowledge and a high degree of professionalism. Great customer service is priceless and I'm sending this recommendation to others in need. BTW, I never met or knew Russell prior to this, so this review is completely impartial and based on my own professional experience with him.
Leland Montgomery
Our entire Designer Appliances experience was pleasant, from start to finish. We had been managing without a refrigerator for 3 weeks (yes, in August) because one of the big chain stores misled us about the availability of our replacement order. We contacted Joe, who found exactly one 42" Monogram refrigerator in the entire US that had a great reputation for reliability and was perfect for our space. Delivery was promised in 4 days, and while we crossed our fingers for each one of them, Joe delivered - literally - with his crew showing up at 8 am to remove the old box and within 2 hours we were chilling down the new refrigerator. We recommend DA to anyone who wants an honest appliance dealer, and to Joe in particular for his personal oversight of our predicament. You'll be in good hands.
Debra O'Brien
Russell Berta was very helpful and patient with us. He had good alternative ideas for us and made the overall experience a lot easier. I would definitely recommend Russell and Designer Appliances.
Andrew Bernstein
Designer appliances to the rescue! After waiting weeks to get a dishwasher from Lowe’s and receiving miss information about my order I called designer appliances. Russell was very quickly able to provide me a list of in stock appliances that met my needs and I was able to make the purchase over the phone within minutes. We will be getting our product installed two days after purchase which is amazing given these difficult times. I can’t thank you enough.
Clare Kendall
Excellent customer service. I called Designer Appliances with questions regarding a Miele dishwasher I saw on-line and Russell Berta was extremely helpful. After providing me with the requisite info, he provided the number for his direct line, in case I had additional questions. I used the number to call him back and place my order—he could not have made the process any more efficient, professional or easy! Kudos to Russel
Scott Henry
Russell was nothing more than professional. He demonstrated an in depth knowledge of all the appliances in the showroom. He was confidently able to guide us to get what was right for our situation. We will definitely use Russell again!
Van Portsche
We really appreciated the knowledge and help Russell (Sales Associate) provided us and are loving our new dishwasher. (It had been incredibly challenging to find a dishwasher with a water softener feature, so a giant thank you to Russell for all of his help on this and to Designer Appliances for having it available.)
We did have hiccups with the delivery company (they no showed / no called when they were supposed to deliver - apparently their truck had broken down), but when we alerted Megan and Linda at Designer Appliances, they immediately intervened, contacted the delivery company, and resolved the issue for delivery the following day. Thanks so much to Russell, Megan, and Linda for their customer care!
Laura Cunningham
My husband and I had a fantastic experience at Designer Appliances. Russell was incredibly knowledgable and was able to steer us in the best direction for our needs. It was clear that he has done a ton of research and knows the ins and outs of every product. He was also very responsive, answering our calls and emails immediately. Definitely recommend Designer Appliances for all appliance needs!
Nishit Patel
Called Designer Appliances in NJ, Russell picked up the call. Offered as much help as he can, left me with his personal phone to call back to order the product, which I had requested. I called back and I was absolutely surprised to have a sales rep. so delighted to help you as a novice client. He was thorough, informative, pleasant to talk to, and I might add, funny as well with very good communication skills and you can hear all of that in his delight to help you. What a guy! I hope that the management promotes him to a better option! Thank you Russell and Designer Appliances for having us as your customers.
john kozyrakis
I am very satisfied with the level of professionalism and honesty from Designer Appliances and more specifically Russel who helped me choose my dishwasher.
From a big vendor, I have already had my delivery postponed twice with a 2 week delay with both times confirming from 'supposed' appliance vendor about delivery of item. After being fooled twice, I decided to look elsewhere, where Russel was able to tell me of a nationwide back-order with no actual estimate of items being available. Given my frustration and urgency of getting a dishwasher, Russel gave me all the attention and priority to ensure I not only get my items, but also expedite my order to ensure soon as possible delivery.
Would definitely recommend Designer Appliances for any appliance searches, and will definitely use them on my next purchase.
Rob Schardt
My experience with Russell from Designer Appliances was excellent! From the minute I first spoke to Russell he was immediately helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. He was incredibly professional and knew everything about the appliance I wanted to purchase. I felt like he really wanted to make sure my experience was everything I expected and more. Not only will I look to Russell for future purchases, but I will highly recommend him to anyone I know who needs to purchase appliances and would like to experience premier customer service by a knowledgeable professional. Top notch!
Deanna Green
My fiance and I had a great experience purchasing here. Russell Berta was very friendly and a great help in answering all of our questions. The purchasing process was quick and efficient. The installation team came today to install our washer and dryer and they were also friendly, quick, and professional. We are very happy with our purchase.
Home Branch
We were in need of a new refrigerator. Our current model was starting its slow death march to oblivion. After researching various models and visiting several big box stores, I was extremely dismayed by the lack of service and the inability of the salesperson to understand the product. This is why I truly appreciate the level of detail from Russell Berta and Designer Appliances. He answered every question and helped us decide which refrigerator best suited our needs. There was no forceful selling tactics. Since we weren’t in immediate need, we decided to take our time to make our decision. Russell was available to answer additional questions until we were ready to make our purchase. I highly recommend Russell and Designer Appliance.
Another note: When you visit the showroom, be patient if there are customers ahead of you. They will not rush a customer. Again they will answer every question. This is something you will appreciate when they are assisting you.
Topher Harris
I have placed three separate orders with Designer Appliances and have never been let down. Truly great staff and a pleasurer to work with.
Susan Gifford
We purchased a new range from Designer Appliance, and the entire transaction was seamless from start to finish. Russell Berta accurately forecast when the range would arrive, and answered all my questions about availability, delivery, etc., right away. The appliance was delivered this morning, even earlier than the projected window, and the deliverymen were careful and professional. I would definitely buy from them again and recommend them to others.
Beverly Weitzman
In the market for a washer/dryer, I looked on line at the warehouse type stores. The weather was lousy and I did not feel like driving any distance. So I went to see what my local Designer Appliances had and met with Russell. I had a list of specific models and he was able to give me comparisons, prices, and advice. I decided to look no further. The prices were very reasonable and the fact that delivery, installation, and removal were not additionally charged was an absolute deal maker. There was no pressure to make an immediate decision. Russell emailed spec sheets and quotes for the various models I was interested in and I was able to purchase my choice over the phone. The items are in stock and delivery is scheduled for this week. A very pleasurable experience.
Haorong Huang
We were looking online for a replacement for my old Bosch 500 Dishwasher with Home Depot, Lowe's, Best Buy and couple other online stores including Designer Appliance. We called Home Depot and Lowe's before we called your store and spoke with Russell. The warm response, great service, knowledge level of the products and quick follow up call and return call from Russell was the main factor led us made the quick decision to place the order with Russell and your store. His professionalism and outstanding service really impressed us, and he definitely deserves the 5 Stars.
Darshan Goswami
It was amazing service. They have the best customer service. We met Russell Berta at Designer Appliances store in Montclair, NJ. Exceptional Seevice, very knowledgeable. Help us with some of our unique requirements and give us optimal path forward. We don’t think twice in doing business with him. He helped us buying all the kitchen and laundry appliances with every step of decision making. I will definitely recommend him and designer appliances for your next appliances shopping.
Maruthi Kumar Dussa
Designer Appliance Store in Montclair, NJ is small BUT the staff in the store is great!
Especially Russ, he is such a nice guy, he help you to choose correct appliance, he never push for sales, very experienced and knowledgeable.
Very friendly!!
The bottom line is 5 Stars are not enough, Trust me, if you deal with him, he is like all in one !!!
Highly recommend Designer Appliance Store, Montclair, NJ.
Russel Berta - 5 Star customer service!!!!!!!!
Michael Wong
I had a wonderful experience purchasing a Miele W/D set from Designer Appliances and their fantastic sales representative Russell Berta. Russell clearly explained the benefits of the Miele models and patiently answered all my questions. His response times and professionalism -- even during his off day! -- were truly above & beyond. Russell also helped make special delivery arrangements to accommodate my busy schedule, a process that was executed perfectly. I look forward to future purchases from Designer Appliances and highly recommend them to anyone in market for great products and service.
Kirk Tashjian
Incredible service! Russell Berta is very knowledgable and took the time to explain best options available, pros and cons of each (importantly, not just the most expensive options!) and followed-up with an email that included all relevant information so I could make a truly informed decision. Never felt rushed in our conversation and he didn't push me to make any decisions. Quite a different customer feeling versus any "big box" store. I will definitely do business with Russell and Designer Appliances again!
Clark Chen
My wife and I were looking for new appliances for our new home. We came across Designer Appliances in Montclair NJ. Russell was very friendly. He patiently explained all the detailed information of the appliances we like and gave us very honest opinions. We ordered all our appliances with Russell and will definitely recommend him to anyone who is shopping for appliances.
j goore
My experience with Designer Appliance Store was more than positive. I was ordering a cooktop and dishwasher. For some unexplained reason, I became indecisive regarding my selection for the dishwasher. Joseph was very helpful with the original meeting and selections. However, I called many times after that, and Joseph would say, "take your time, I want you to be happy." He was so patient and understanding. My story ended with the original order received and installed. Yes, Joseph, I am very happy!
Julie Neuspiel
I had a wonderful experience looking at kitchen appliances in the Montclair showroom with Russel Berta helping us. Even after going to larger showrooms with more affordable appliances, we came back to Russel at Designer Appliances, because we could not beat the quality. We are so excited for our new kitchen and grateful for Russel's help!
Andrew McNelly
I used DA to do my kitchen in Glen Ridge last year…what is nice (and unique) about DA is the after sale service…popped in on a Sunday to ask about a random filter for the Bosch refrigerator and Russell made me feel like he was making a new sale. So refreshing to get great service 6 months after the sale. Thank you Russell Berta!!
Eric Hanson
Russel was a great help to us in purchasing our new dishwasher, from recommending the right brand to setting up our delivery. Will definitely keep in mind for our future appliance needs!
Matt Henn
We went to the Montclair NJ location and met with Russell. He was very knowledgeable, professional, was able to quickly answer our questions and point us in the right direction on product choice. We just placed our order, and are excited to receive our new Miele washer and dryer!
Glenn Antkowiak
Really pleased with my experience shopping for my new grill. Russell discussed my options with me and steered me clear of an option that was clearly not fit for my needs. I was really appreciative of the fact that there was no push for a sale at the store. After I left, I did some additional research on grills and confirmed that the grill that Russell had showed me was indeed a great choice. Very pleased with the experience.
Dhrubo Mazumdar
Designer Appliances is an excellent store and i would highly recommend them! We have used them twice, and on both occasions Russell Berta was very helpful and informative.
Don Creighton
We wanted to buy a Miele washer / dryer as soon as possible. Russell Berta was very informed on the different models and efficient with our time, quickly letting us know which products were available. We had delivery of the washer and dryer on Friday, six days after purchase. Thank you, Russ!
Carmela Lawrence
My experience at Designer Appliances was fantastic. I was doing an online search for appliances at reasonable prices and came across their site. A chat box opened up and I started ‘talking’ with Russell. Not only did he answer my questions but he provided links to certain appliances. When I asked for a price quote, he emailed it immediately. I went to the store to purchase the appliances and was shocked that the person I was chatting with was an actual person. Russell is knowledgeable, honest and willing to help. I will definitely shop here again.
Denise Santiago
I originally went to the Montclair store and received better than anticipated personalized service. The sales associate, Russell Berta, answered all of my questions and suggested possible alternative products. He then informed me of their larger showroom-- and once again, I received well-informed service from an associate that assisted me in selecting a refrigerator and updating Russell's original order.
I look forward to receiving my Viking range in graphite gray and Bosch refrigerator. Without hesitation, I recommend Designer Appliances / Russell Berta as alternatives to "big box" stores.
Siddhartha Mahapatra
I got a refrigerator and a dishwasher recently from Montclair Designer Appliances store. And Russell was helping me with the purchase. He was amazing! He is very knowledgeable about all home appliance products, be it refrigerator or dishwasher or gas range. I was a bit undecided on a couple of models for the dishwasher. He patiently explained the differences to me and provided his practical insights that greatly helped me making a decision. Not only he assisted with product selection that would meet our needs, but also he made a genuine effort to give the best possible price. It was a great customer experience solely because of him. Thanks Russell for your help.
Bahiah Abdrabboh
I came across Designer Appliances through my online search for specific kitchen appliance brands. What a great find! The sales rep, Russell, was extremely knowledgeable about the products and made stellar recommendations based on our needs. He was friendly, extremely professional and even sent us estimates instantaneously via email!
Overall, my experience at Designer Appliances was a positive and seamless one! Excellent pricing too!
Jodi Zielinski
Not only is Russell, the Sales associate amazing at helping to find the right product for my needs, follow up on delivery dates, and easily change orders without hassle, but the delivery and installation team are top notch. They easily moved large appliances through tight spaces and installed appliances quickly, providing anything we may have missed in the construction process to properly hook everything up. They truly are THE BEST!
John Rissi
My rep Russell Berta was great. He responded to all my questions and if he didn't know, he got back to me quickly. He gave me his cell phone so I could contact him anytime. I was very comfortable making this major purchase of a washer and dryer. I now have his phone number to call if I want to buy any other home appliance or need parts or anything in the future. This is a Top notch company that has very good people working for them! I don't normally post about my purchasing experiences but this definitely stood out. Very impressed.
mark l
We really appreciated Russell Berta's help with the four appliances we needed for our kitchen renovation. Russell was cordial, attentive to our needs and knowledgeable about the options. This was exactly the kind of help we were looking for in coming to DA instead of one of the big boxes. Thank you.
Megan Downing
I worked with Russell Berta and he went above and beyond to help us. We had many detailed questions and we took our time to decide including research at competitors. After much deliberation we ended up going with Russell's first suggestion. We never felt pressured, but we did feel supported. I look forward to working with Russell and Designer Appliances in the future and recommending to my clients.

My wife and I purchased our new washer and dryer from Russell over the weekend. We enjoyed how engaging, informative, and helpful he was. In addition, we noticed his patience while we took time to think about our options; we never felt rushed or hurried. A very personable and knowledgeable sales professional; a pleasure to have been helped by him. The coffee he made for us was also a treat!
eric shawn
Russell Berta was the consummate professional - - responsive, prompt and well versed in the details of the products. He made our shopping experience for a new washing machine and dryer a pleasure. When the time comes that we need to buy another appliance, we’ll return to Designer Appliances and again buy through Russell.
Scott A
Today we stopped by to look at appliances that we are planning to purchase for a new kitchen. We were greeted by Russel who patiently answered all of our questions and guided us without any pressure to the appliances that would meet our needs. Russel was very knowledgeable, kind, and treated us like family. I would highly recommend Designer Appliances, and Russel. The hour drive we took to this store was well worth the trip.
Sharon Gao
Cinthya G was very friendly and knowledgeable. This is our first time purchasing from her and the company. When I found out the dishwasher handle blocked the drawer. She swapped it with one without handle quickly. When my double wall oven delivered with broken glass door, she also quickly found a replacement for me. I understand the lead time for all appliances are much longer than before. I am still waiting for my Zephyr kitchen hood to be delivered. It was ordered in Jun with 3 other appliances from the same store, 6 months ago, which seems beyond a normal window. Cinthya managed to deliver the other 3 pieces in Oct-Nov. The whole experience with Designer Appliances could be better if I could get this Zephyr hood to complete my kitchen project.
G Thomas
Truly great experience with Designer Appliance. I am local to the NY/NJ market, but I actually found them online because of their product reviews on YouTube which are extremely well done and very informative. I was impressed that these reviews recommend products they sell as well as those they don't. I decided to call in and talk with someone about a couple of products. My sales associate, Joseph Cocuzza was friendly, super knowledgeable and overall just fantastic to work with in helping me decide on a dishwasher and microwave for our kitchen. There are so many options for dishwashers and he was great at explaining some of the nuances to in addition to ensuring I got a great price. Definitely recommend working with them whether you are in the NJ/NY area or in another part of the country.
anuj mediratta
We had a broken refrigerator that needed to be replaced (quickly). Russell walked us through the process of what might work and what products worked best for our needs. We left within 30 minutes and have our new appliance on the way in less than 7 days. Price was comparable to big box stores with much better customer service. Will use them going forward when other appliances need to be replaced.
Angela Larsen
We needed a new dishwasher. I was able to go to the website and watch a video on the product I was interested in purchasing. I was also able to ask questions on line. The representative, Russell, was very knowledgeable and so helpful! He answered all my questions and I was so pleased to purchase a Miele from the store! This was My first visit to the store and it was a great experience! Thank you Russell ! You did a great job!! I will be going back to store to make another purchase soon thanks to a great salesperson Russell.
Kathy Jankowski
I cant give Designer Appliances enough praise! Russell Berta was my salesperson. He is extremely professional, knowledgeable and most of all uniquely supportive in meeting the customers needs - a skill set many customers take for granted but one that is also hard to find in todays dealings. He made the entire process very smooth. I will only use and recommend Designer Appliances and Russell Berta in particular for all future appliance needs. Their showroom is stellar but it is important to note, they carry a wide range of product at all price points. Thank you Russell and da!
Artie Ebner
My wife and I were shopping for appliances for our new kitchen and happened upon Designer Appliances in Montclair. Russell Berta was the sales person at the store. He is a pleasure to work with and was very knowledgeable and informative on the products available in your establishment. He assisted us during our decision making and the purchasing of the appliances we wanted for our kitchen. Russell was very professional and courteous. He also went the extra mile to let us know of different programs in an effort to cost effectively provide us the products we wanted. I would and will recommend other potential clients to visit Designer Appliances and seek out Russell to assist them with their purchasing experience.
Melissa S
Our visit to the store was great. Russ was incredibly helpful during the entire hour we were there, answering all of our questions and providing pros and cons of our choices. We walked out of there happy with our decision and can't thank Russ enough. We will definitely be back!
Todd Farrand
We had an amazing experience with Designer Appliances! Beginning right with our salesman, Russell Berta (he's top notch...great guy, wonderful to work with, and really knows his business), to the repairmen who came to our home. Steve (who calibrated the oven), and Danny (who replaced the sensor) made sure our appliance was fixed in a timely manner. These gentlemen were genuinely concerned about keeping us as customers happy.
We will definitely buy from Designer Appliances again.

James Curran
Excellent sales service. Needed Stacked Washer & Dryer. I walked in and out in less than 15 minutes. Brought my dimensions and pictures of the install and Russell brought up options that were in stock. DONE. And should be delivered within days.
Go to Designer Appliances - The "big box home store" in town led me to TWO failed delivery attempts over 3 MONTHS, both the fault or the Sales Person and their Outsourced Delivery team who lied about us not being home, then not being able to install it and then not being able to leave it for me to install myself. (they just didn't want to do the work as they got paid anyway)
Save yourself some time. They also saved me money too!
Support your local business. Thanks Designer Appliances.
Greg P
Russell was a fantastic support agent. He answered all of my questions thoroughly and was very responsive. I usually just order things online directly, but when he provided such great support and I knew he was an actual person I made sure to place my order directly through. I would highly recommend Designer Appliances and especially Russell. It was a pleasure working with him.
Anthony Wiecek
This is to share of the great service I received from Russell Berta from Designer Appliances.
After receiving a brochure in the mail box this afternoon for Designer Appliances and my need for a Washer / Dryer replacement I decided to call Designer Appliances and was met with a very customer oriented person, Russell Breta. He was helpful, considerate, easy person to talk to and worked with me about checking his stock and seeing if he can deliver it to us in the next 24 -72 hours. I appreciate people who are very helpful and understanding.
If you have to reach Designer Appliances , ask for Russell Breta and you will see and talk to a real great person.
Alan Momeyer
I stopped by at Designer Appliances yesterday and met Russell Berta. I do not believe I have ever met a more informative, helpful, and friendly professional in a situation like this, and I've been around quite a while! Russell really listened to us and answered all our questions with thorough expertise, and asked questions back that allowed us to articulate many details on our desires for features we weren't even aware of. He was thorough and efficient and we were in and out in less than half an hour, with an agreement to purchase a new stove and dishwasher for our Manhattan apartment. You know a true pro when you meet one, and Russell is that guy!
Mario Gomez
Great store. Had a variety of top notch appliances. Russel was wonderful in helping me with my refrigerator purchase. Thank you
Jason Bhargava
I've had a great experience thus far with Designer Appliances. I met with Russell in the Montclair showroom last week, and ever since then - he's been very responsive and informative. He matched (and actually beat) the other prices I was seeing (from the big box retailers) and I've now placed the order. Hopefully the rest of the process goes smoothly (feel free to DM down the line if you have any questions)!
Lonnie Ebner
Russell Berta was a pleasure to work with while deciding on and purchasing the appliances we wanted for our kitchen. He was very knowledgeable of the product lines sold from this establishment. Russell was very professional and courteous. He also made every effort to let us know of different programs in an effort to cost effectively provide us the products we wanted. I would and will recommend other potential clients to visit Designer Appliances and seek out Russell to assist them with their purchasing experience.
Charles Johnson
My salesperson Russell was excellent and really took care of me. These guys are very professional and had my order delivered in home within 4 business days. Delivery went without a hitch and the delivery agents were in and out in less than 10 minutes. Very happy so far with the product and the service.
Yuan Xu
Russell Berta helped me in selecting a Miele washer and dryer combo on Sunday. He was very informative and patient. And I already have the combo installed by today Wednesday. After the delivery, I confirmed with the installer that the shipping struts for washer were removed but not given to me. I called Russell. He has no problem FedEx me another set of struts. I highly recommend Designer Appliances and Russell.

Very responsive support staff, especially Russell Berta. He was helpful both the first time I ordered appliances through (about a month ago) and today, when I needed another appliance.
I have done several orders from Designer appliances now and just ordered another (Dishwasher) today with Russell Berta. Great overall service. Thanks.
Paul Bailey
This review is for placing the order at Designer Appliances in Montclair, NJ. I worked with Cinthya, she extremely knowledgeable and professional. I went back-and-forth with different brands/models. Cinthya helped me choose the right models and provided pros and cons to help me make an informed decision. Ordered the Thermador Range, Refrigerator and Dishwasher package. Very efficient logistics/paperwork. Excited for the delivery.
Jessica Kimelman
Overall I was very pleased with my experience purchasing a dishwasher through Designer Appliances. I was pleasantly surprised to have a real person respond to my online chat when I had a question while looking for dishwashers on their website. Russell was very helpful and answered all my questions quickly via chat. He was a pleasure to work with over the phone to purchase the dishwasher. He was also very responsive and helped resolve an issue when the installation ran into a small snafu. I would definitely purchase another appliance here in the future.
Amanda Bhalla
I worked with Russ Berta on a dishwasher after our existing one failed. Designer Appliances had sufficient stock and Russ is extremely friendly, detailed, and responsive. The process was done via email and phone and could not have been easier. I would highly recommend. Thank you!
Russ Scotti
Great experience! Russ Berta was extremely helpful and accommodating throughout the whole process. Delivery was as scheduled and without a hitch. Best price + great service = extremely satisfied customer. We have already recommended Russ and Designer Appliances to two of our friends!
Melissa Talarico
I have been working with Russell B from the montclair store..he has proven to be very helpful in guiding my appliance choices. He is extremely responsive and has put together several good, workable solutions to meet my design and budget requirements.
I prefer to work with small businesses like Designer Appliances because i have found them to be more responsive and knowledgeable then big box stores or chains.
Joel
Ned was extremely helpful with the purchase and he was honest. Will definitely go back to Ned for future purchases!

Ordered a Big Green Egg, XL package. This is my second order from Designer Appliances, and another great experience. My salesman - for the second time- Russell Berta, is extremely helpful, efficient, professional and responsive. I highly recommend Designer Appliances, and Russell Berta in particular. Though we've not yet taken delivery, I know from past experience that their delivery service is extraordinary.
Lilly Provost
We are kicking off a really large kitchen remodel and we haven’t been shopping for appliances in year so it’s safe to say we’re out of touch in the field. Our sales person, Joe, was patient, knowledgeable, and budget savy with guiding us to the proper choices to fit our needs and budget. He made our shopping experience efficient and we appreciate his guidance. It was also great to have such a local location.
Deniz korkmaz
Excellent service, very high quality appliances, very professional sales, coordinated the delivery of appliances with me in real time. Extremely impressed with the service.
Lakshmi Natarajan
I love Designer Appliances for their wonderful showroom and awesome customer service. I also highly recommend Russell who had a good sense of what features I wanted in my refrigerator in my given kitchen space and was great with his suggestions. He was also prompt in his responses through email or phone. Thank you Russell!
David Myones
Outstanding experience with Designer Appliances! Russ was a great help picking out our Miele Crystal Dishwasher. He was extremely knowledgeable. He went out of his way to ensure we were scheduled for delivery as early as possible and followed back up with me when he was on vacation to make sure we were happy. He went above and beyond! Highly recommend.
Ayman Ibrahim, DO
Excellent experience. The sales representative, Ned was awesome. Highly recommended.
Kathy L
What a pleasant experience, after I found the dishwasher I was interested in buying, I started a chat online with Russell from Designer Appliances and he immediately replied and helped me with the purchase. I wish we had more salesman like Russell who have all the patience, match the price, answer all your questions and are happy to help you. Thank you Russell.
Jacob Schwam
Russel was INCREDIBLY helpful in making our decision to furnish our kitchen. He was personable, honest and accommodating. We look forward to coming back and finalizing our plans with him shortly. Great experience
Jennifer Alicandri
Russell was amazing from start to finish. The entire process was seamless. He was attentive and efficient.. just got the job done. Thank you to Russell!!!
Laurie Mitchell
Thank you Russell of Designer Appliances for making our search for the Bosch dishwater a breeze. We have been on a never ending search and finally found the perfect place to shop for this much needed washer. We will surely choose Designer Appliances for future appliance needs. I will recommend Designer Appliances to all our friends. Ever grateful. Laurie Mitchell. Bronx, New York
Keshet Sivan
I can't speak to the delivery and installation side yet, because I just placed my order, but the customer service on this side of the process was fantastic. Joseph was extremely helpful and patient and helped me find the perfect products for my specifications, price range, and preferred dates of delivery, even staying on the phone with me while I measured the space and looked at product reviews on different sites. I am really looking forward to my new fridge and oven, which look fantastic on paper, and really appreciate how affordable installation will be -- much more so than Home Depot, Best Buy, etc.!
Charles Ewing
Great experience this morning completing the purchase of our kitchen appliances through Designer Appliances. Russell was awesome; we started communicating via live chat, he answered several questions and asked if he could call to make things easier. We talked through all the details, he sent the order for review via e-mail, and BOOM, we're done. Best pricing we've seen on our preferred appliances. How funny that Russell is from the same town in NJ as we were before moving to NC. Small world...must have been fate! Thanks for a great overall experience, Russell. We'll definitely be back in touch when it comes time for the wine cooler, grill, etc.
Kayla Montilla
Russell helped me choose the proper appliance for my new home. Thank you so much for all the help.
Antonio Ruiz
I called the Expert hot line to get some info on the refrigerator I was looking to buy and Russell was very courteous and friendly to speak with. He was knowledgeable on the product I was looking to purchase and answered all my questions to the tee. I couldn’t of been more happy with making the purchase with him over the phone. Very good experience and would recommend everyone to buy from Designer Appliances. Free delivery to New York and New Jersey. Works perfect for me!! Thanks Russ.
Justin Fung
As a resident in town, I wanted to support local during this time. I was able to have Russell's full attention on the phone and through email while figuring out which secondary refrigerator to purchase. He gave expert analysis, the price was the same or better than the big DIY chains, and delivery happened in 3 business days! I would absolutely recommend Designer Appliances and the delivery service they use.
Kelly Lyles
Set an appointment and walked into the showroom in Montclair, already knowing what I wanted. Russ was professional, quick to answer any questions and explained the delivery process thoroughly, which I appreciated. The sales price of my item was also $300 less than any “big box” retailer and I’m happy to support local businesses in the community! Overall a great experience.
C T
Russell (the sales rep) was SO MUCH HELP! He made shopping for a new refrigerator so easy. Even though I live almost an hour away, I would absolutely shop with him again. We spoke on the phone. I explained exactly what I wanted, and he emailed me a link with all my choices--it was SO EASY! And since I was in a rush to get delivery, he went out of his way and even offered further phone assistance after the store had actually closed. And BTW, their prices were definitely LESS than both Lowes and Home Depot on the models I was looking at.
Daniel Giannone
Russell was fantastic! Very knowledgable and helpful. Got us great competitive prices as well as answering any questions we had. I would highly recommend these guys. Can't wait for our new appliances!
Michael Pielocik
Had a great experience working with Russell, who was helpful, knowledgable, and friendly, and guided us through the process of getting our new dishwasher and washer/dryer purchased and installed. So glad we worked with DA instead of a big box store.
Lily Yang
Having seen the good feedback other customers gave from their services, I decided to choose Designer Appliances to buy a new washer for my parents. I ended up calling their customer service line since I wanted to price match the washer to another seller. They were able to fulfill the price match, and getting my order placed was very easy. I appreciate that they didn't try to sell me many extra bells and whistles, only the necessities were suggested. While I didn't sign on to their extended warranty, they actually do have a good deal.
All three of their employees I've spoken with on the phone have been very clear and concise, and their e-mails are similarly so. It's rare to see customer service this straightforward and thorough.
Matt Litkey
Working with Russell so far has been a total pleasure! He has been incredibly quick to respond to changes in my order and has provided overall excellent service. It’s refreshing to see such attentive customer service in this day and age.
Laurie Kaleta
Russel is amazing! Extremely knowledgeable, patient, and provides outstanding customer service. When purchasing kitchen appliances, there is so much to consider but Russel made it easy and I felt at ease. The experience will make you wonder why you would ever bother with any big box stores.
Edward Greenberg
I ordered a Green Egg and it was delivered promptly and assembled professionally and with great courtesy. The sales process and follow up was perfect. Highly recommended
Recently ordered a Thermador range. Russell (our sales associate in Montclair) was very responsive and available for follow up. Good experience again
Merle Sprinzen
I simply could not be happier with the service I received from Russell Berta at Designer Appliances. He listened to the all of the characteristics of a washer/dryer combination I was looking for, and came back with recommendations - along with the reasons he was recommending those particular models. He got me quotes almost instantaneously, and was fast to change them when I asked more questions. He's that perfect combination of knowledgeable, personable, helpful, and quick. And being able to call him on his cellphone was really a plus -- he was always only moments away. Thanks for having such an extraordinary customer service person at your company, and having such an informative website.
Tarika Daftary Kapur
We had a wonderful experience with selecting appliances for our new kitchen. Russell Berta, our sales associate, was extremely helpful in guiding us in the process and extremely responsive to all my questions. Highly recommend!
Craig George
This was my first time shopping at Designer Appliances and it will definitely be my new go-to place for major appliances. Russell picked up the phone after 2 rings and was friendly and very knowledgeable. He quickly provided us with the information we needed and minutes later our washer/dryer combo was ordered and scheduled for installation the next week. Great prices AND customer service!
Sven Schindler
I was very skeptical about buying appliances online. The space in my apartment is very limited; furthermore, voltage, and using a dryer in a closed area needed some consideration. Russell did an excellent job in helping me to find the perfect unit and identifying the parts required for installation. Also, the delivery and installation went very well. I'm impressed with the service provided and it is very rare, that I'm giving a five star rating.
Larry Gallagher
Russ Berta assisted me with surprising my wife with all new kitchen appliances. He was extremely helpful and professional and pick out the best appliances within my budget. My wife was very happy.I would strongly recommend Russ for any new or remodeling, he took all the stress out of this major decision.
Daniel Pitney
I could not believe how easy and efficient and pleasant this shopping experience was. Working with Russell was great. I knew the range we wanted and with my two year-old, the online chat was the convenient beginning and when I had literally a minute without toddler, he called me and we placed the order in a minute, with the bonus of a free over the range microwave, free shipping and no tax. Couldn't be better! Thank you, Russell.
Mark Mania
Russ Berta did an excellent job following up on my purchase. He was very helpful and assisted in the price to ensure he gave me the best possible cost. He was very proactive and personable to talk to. Thanks for the purchase. I have not receive my purchase yet but so far the activity hs been great.
Max Skoryk
Having dealt with all the big appliance companies in the past, I have to say designer appliance has won my loyalty. Absolutely amazing staff, they are fast to respond to any questions I had, very accommodating, fast to deliver. Absolutely amazing customer service and customer relations. I would recommend them to anyone. If I could give them 10 stars I would.
Dave La Valle
Russell was awesome and made purchasing appliances stress free. Wouldn’t hesitate to come back for another project.
Catherine Angus
Excellent from beginning to end. Russell at the Montclair store made the purchase process of a new Bosch dishwasher as easy as could be, and answered all my questions. Susan coordinated the delivery and was available by phone upon delivery when the installers encountered a problem. The installation was looking problematic due to an issue with my floor, but the guys kept trying to find a solution and eventually did. This dishwasher replaces a 14 year old Bosch dishwasher: we hope it’s a as durable as the last, and as reliable as the service from DA. Thanks to everyone involved!
Nancy T
I purchased a washer/dryer (Miele) with representative, Russell, at Designer Appliances, and it was seamless. Russell was knowledgeable, informative, extremely helpful and went out of his way to answer any/all of my questions; sending me reference manuals, as requested! He was amazing!
Thank you, Russell, for making my "big" purchase decision - easy and stress free!!!
K Riley Simmons
When making purchases from Designer Appliances, several times I was fortunate to receive help from Russel, one of their online service reps. Russell was always knowledgeable and able to recommend the best ways to save the most on my purchases. I was always happy to see his face on the chat window because I knew I'd get great assistance!
Richard Portuese
My entire experience with Designer Appliances - from start to finish- was exceptional, Everyone that I dealt with, from my first telephone call until my appliances were installed was professional, courteous, and delivered as promised. Joe Cocuzza in sales expertly directed me to the right product for my needs, His product knowledge and terrific personality made my buying experience pleasurable and stress free. And they continue to provide outstanding support after delivery. Thank you Designer Appliances.
Mike Mickens
Easiest experience ever buying appliances. Russell made it so easy.
Jacqueline Chaykin
Russell was very knowledgable regarding all features of various compact washer/dryers. He made the entire process very easy! He checked specs on existing unit to make sure new unit would fit in cabinet and let me know about all rebates. I will return to Designer Appliances for future purchases.
Carl Johnson
After a referral from a friend I decided to give Designer Appliances a call. Russell Berta was the gent who gave me a hand in ordering along with a hookup kit. Very helpful and upfront as he told me what to expect as the product is on backorder and would be for awhile.
I cannot give the 5th star as he could not work a miracle by producing a product out of this air. But when it comes in...
Looking forward to hearing from him when product arrives and is ready for pickup.
G T
Russel has been fantastic. In a world with many different options he took the time to explain everything while listen to my concerns and needs. His expertise is unmatched and truly a professional in his field. He is really my go to person for any appliance needs. Thank you Russell!
Rosa T
Found Designer Appliances online and decided to go to the store. Russell was great, he took his time with us, provided us with several options. His expertise in the different brands offered were outstanding. We will definitely recommend Russell.
Christiane Carvalho
The experience ordering my washer and dryer from Designer Appliances was excellent. The sales representative Russel was very knowledgeable and took special interest in my order, added a discount and followed up in a timely manner. Very impressed.
Booth Keeney
Russ was a great help in facilitating our purchases. He’s a very knowledgeable and pleasant person, and I will be using him for all my major appliance purchases in the future. Thanks again Russ!
Ray Li
Russ has been such a great help with helping us select a choose a fridge that would be perfect for our new home. His knowledge made this shopping experience so easy and stress-free, which is appreciated as purchasing a new home is all sorts of stress! We plan to come back for other projects soon. Thanks Russ!
Will Kwan
I worked with Russell from Designer Appliances as I had wanted to order a stackable washer dryer set to replace a current older set. Russell was quick to respond with the quotes after our discussion. He also addressed the different models that I was interested in, showing good product knowledge. I had intended to visit the Montclair location as it was closer to me but Russell pointed out that the Bedminster location was a much larger showroom. We did indeed visit that showroom and processed our order there. The coordination of the delivery, and the actual delivery and install was all done very professionally. Thanks to a great team at Designer Appliances. I will be back to get other appliances as I need them going forward.
Scott Gabrielle
Designer Appliances has become our go-to appliance store. We recently bought new appliances for a kitchen reno and were extremely pleased with our shopping experience . From the knowledgably and friendly in-store staff to the customer service and support, the experience has been top-notch. So much so, when looking for an outdoor grill recently, we called Designer Appliances to make our purchase after researching our options online. And again, the experience was top-notch.
Julie Wunz
I wish I could give more stars to evaluate my experience with Russell Berta of Designer Appliances. He was OUTSTANDING to work with - answered all our questions and worked to overcome some obstacles so we could get the perfect appliance for our renovation project. It's rare to receive superb customer service these days--almost impossible to find someone who is willing to problem-solve--but we got lucky with Russell, as he did all of the above. Thank you, Russell, and Designer Appliances for a great transaction!
Tim Morris
Russ was incredibly easy to work with and got us a great deal on our appliance package. Would definitely recommend going with Russ and Designer Appliance!
Lexy Frautschy
I was very nervous purchasing major appliances (washer and dryer) online, but the experience with Russel and Designer Appliance was fantastic and I couldn't be happier. After a lot of research I found the units that were perfect but of course it was a model that was recently updated without a few features I wanted. I searched everywhere locally and online, and Designer Appliance was one of the only options to still carry the units. The price was competitive and the transaction was easy. They use a 3rd party shipping service and they were great too. It took a couple of weeks to get the units across the country but I was not in a rush and they were great about communication.
Grainne Molloy
Russell for Designer Appliances sales team helped me with my purchase of a refrigerator. Russell was very efficient and knowledgeable, making the purchase a very seamless process. He was also very helpful with arranging delivery. The experience was a very positive one.
Bill Teto
Designer Appliances was the one stop shop for our kitchen. Russell Berta was extremely patient with us as he provided valuable information in our decision making process. During construction, Russell was flexible with our schedule and assisted greatly in our specific delivery requirements. The process at Designer Appliances was smooth and easy.
Gary Tashjian
Russell was incredibly helpful. I had placed an order with another appliance store only to find out that they couldn’t get the items I ordered over a month ago. One quick call to Russell and I was able to get the equipment for an outdoor kitchen.
Scott Cohen
Russell was extremely helpful and candid about our choices. We appreciated his time and patience while we made our decisions. Russel and Designer Appliances...highly recommended.
Deb A.
When shopping for appliances for our kitchen remodel, my husband and I made the hour-long trek from our home to Designer Appliances in Upper Montclair. There we met with Russell, who patiently listened to our preferences and matched them to the various appliances we were seeking to buy. He was knowledgeable about the products and was able to answer all of our questions. He did not try to upsell us on features or brands we were not interested in and gave us a very fair price. Since the COVID-19 outbreak put our remodeling plans on hold, he has remained in touch, updating us on the availability of our selections, without pressuring us to take delivery. Without question, we will go to Russell for any future appliance needs. Dealing with him was well worth the trip.
Steve Gachko
Russell was absolutely fantastic - no pressure, honest, and knowledgeable. We are in the very early stages of a potential kitchen renovation and there’s no doubt we will be back when we are ready to pull the trigger. I wish Russell also sold cars, provided child care, etc...life would be a whole lot easier!!
Ernest Borja
I was in the market for a pair of Bosch 500 series washer/dryer units and Cinthya from Designer Appliances provided an excellent buying experience. She is extremely knowledgeable, worked with me to address all questions I had about the units, offered the most competitive pricing, and went above and beyond to ensure the installation process happened seamlessly. Amazing experience from start to finish. I would definitely give her my business again in the future!
Eileen Kaufman
Russell was wonderful to work with. He patiently explained all our options and helped us make an informed decision on a refrigerator. We will definitely seek him out for our next appliance purchase.
Marie Azcueta
My husband and I were in the market for a Miele washer and dryer after researching on the web for a while. We found Designer Appliances and got in touch with them once we new what we wanted. Russell, talked us through questions we had and differences between models. He was kind enough to also provide us with multiple quotes based on our preferences. He made the purchasing process was simple and easy — at this moment I’m eagerly waiting for my purchase to arrive.
Tammi Peterson
Joseph in Sales, went over and beyond to help with my ordering. It’s difficult at times to order online without seeing the product especially appliances, but he looked up both my new and old models to make sure it was a comparable upgrade. He explained the installation process and advised I could call him with any issues. He absolutely made an online ( over the phone) purchase very personable. I’m hoping the install goes just as good. Thank you Joseph!
Jay Levy
It was my first time using Designer Appliances and ordered a new refrigerator and freezer. The delivery came 2 days after I ordered the appliances which was great. Durning installation we noticed a few issues and called the company right away. They took care of the problem immediately! I would not hesitate to order from Designer Appliances again and Joseph in sales was a pleasure to work with.
Great experience!!
Kristin Smith
Russell was a complete and total pleasure to work with, as well as a life saver!!!!!! Russell was more than helpful with placing my order and bending over backwards to ensure that my order could be expedited. His customer service ability exceeded my expectations with getting my order delivered on time! I appreciate all of his help and everyone else at Designer Appliances!! Thank you!
Eleno Ramos
My wife and I visited the Montclair location today. We were looking to buy a washing machine with certain specifications that would suit our needs. We met with Joseph who was very nice to us from the moment we came into store. He guided us through all of the features of the available models and was excellent in guiding us to the best option that best suited us. I would highly recommend visiting this location for appliance needs. They are competitively priced and are not in a rush to push you out the door with a sale! Most important of all, the salespeople are very knowledgeable about the products they sell!
Anita Bean
Ordering was fast, easy and the sales person Russell answered all of my questions in a timely fashion. I started online, then went live chat, then spoke directly with Russell. I got a great deal on a Miele dishwasher due to a sales event. I didn't feel pressured.
Mukund Raghavan
Had a great experience working with Russell at Designer Appliances. Answered all questions we had and sent a technician to ensure that the appliances would fit before placing the order. Highly recommend.
Kumsie Byrne
Russ found me browsing the Designer Appliances website and after a brief on-line chat my husband and I decided to take his advice and purchase a Bosch appliance. It was more expensive but we felt comfortable with it. Fortunately it was on sale. In general I found him friendly and accommodating. We haven't arrange for delivery and installation yet, so maybe I'll be able to update this review in a few days. I should also say he seemed to be very knowledgeable.
Michael Quarato
We have been in our home for a little over a year, and have done quite a number of renovations during the time. Dealing with Joseph was by the far the easiest interaction to date. He was knowledgeable, timely, and a pleasure to deal with. Plus, their prices are very competitive to the market. I will not hesitate to use again!
Desiree C
Unbelievable customer service! Greg Zanchelli in the Montclair location helped me find the PERFECT range for my kitchen just when I needed it most. Not only did he find one in stock, but it was delivered and installed the very next day, just in time for the holidays. Thank you
Jennifer S.
I found Designer Appliances through an extremely useful YouTube review of the range I wanted. Russell, the company representative, was a huge help in selecting the right range for me. He responded quickly and answered all of my question. Now I can’t wait to get this range and start cooking!
D K
Russ was great and helped me out expeditiously. I was on their website and the chat app turned on and I was instantly getting pricing, inventory, and questions answered. He quickly sent me an email proposal and I made my purchase over the phone. Fastest transaction ever! Thanks Russ!
Crescentia Coutinho
I recently purchased a Wolf Stove Top and a Jenn Air Wall Oven from Designer Appliances in Bedminster, NJ.
My sales persons, Eileen Sroka, was highly knowledgeable, efficient, accommodating and always available to answer a zillion questions through the entire process.
Eileen gave me all my options to help me make an educated and informed purchase based on my budget.
Prior to purchasing the Jenn Air Oven, I was very keen on the Wolf Wall Oven. This oven could not be accommodated in my kitchen's layout. This oven was delivered and had to be returned for one that fit the layout.
Eileen was on top of this problem and resolved the issue by advising me about he Jenn Air which was the perfect fit. The issue was resolved quickly, efficiently and fairly.
Eileen worked with me on pricing and made sure that I got the best value for my appliances.
What I appreciated most was that there was no hard sales pitch and pressure. It was truly a stress free experience. It was so refreshing to work with an honest sales person.
Crescentia Coutinho
Eli Bookman
I stumbled on Designer Appliance on the internet. I wanted to buy a gas grill and their site was great! Chatted with Russell for 5 mins and my grill is ordered! Never have I received such great service and never has it been so easy to part with my hard earned cash. Thank you for making it so easy and so personal!
Chrystal LaRoche
Russell was extremely helpful in the midst of an unprecedented crisis. He very patiently assisted me with my search for a new washer/dryer and dishwasher. He answered all of my questions and was quite knowledgeable about each product that I requested information about. I would definitely recommend him.
Luissanna Reyes
Russell was such a great help. He did everything in his power to satisfy my needs. I love this company. First time buying from them. Will always be calling Russell for future buys. He was so nice and understanding
jackie park
Russell is incredible. He was knowledge, friendly, courteous and was the most professional Appliance salesperson we ever met. Well so happy we came to Designer Appliance and met him.
Sarah Umeed
First designer appliances had all the brands I was interested in at their showroom. Russell took his time in explaining the benefits and differences of each brand. I am really glade from his service and I believe I bought my range from the right place.
miagreiner
Thanks to Peter and the rest of the team at Designer Appliances I have a sparkling Stainless Steel Kitchen by Bosch. The service was great and extremely personal. While visiting the show and in follow up phone calls everyone was very helpful. I had to defer delivery of the appliance after several delays in completing our Lake House renovations and Peter was a tremendous help in coordinating the final installation.
Hiram Jacob Segarra
After almost 30 years, I had to buy a new dishwasher. My wife and I didn't know what to do (the old one was given to us, so we never had to buy one; we sure got our money's worth!).
Anyway, I did some internet researching, and I came across Designer Appliances. We had some idea of what features we wanted, and they had a good selection. We got it down to two different brands/models.
I called them up and spoke to a really nice guy named Joseph Cocuzza. He explained everything thoroughly and clearly, and helped us settle on the best dishwasher for us, going by what I told him. Poor guy; I asked so many questions! But he was very nice and patient and helped us make a good decision. We should get it this week. I can't wait.
P.S. -- I researched other sites (Lowes, Home Depot, etc.), and Designer Appliances had the lowest prices. I don't expect this new dishwasher to last 30 years like our old one, but I know where I'll buy the next one when the time eventually comes.
Truong Nguyen
I had a wonderful and EXTREMELY helpful experience dealing with Russell Berta on the Designer Appliances website. The online shopping chat popped up and I requested someone to contact me and Russell called immediately and was extremely knowledgable and helpful with my selection. How often can you get helpful and knowledgable about products from customer service reps >>? not often!.... Big thanks to Russ. Will shop here again!!!
Pru Gessel
We had a very satisfactory shopping experience thanks to Russell's excellent help and knowledge. He gave us all the information we needed in order to choose our appliance, and we will definitely return in the future.
shoyo sushiroll
Cinthya and everyone else at Designer Appliances made for a quick and easy solution to a delayed appliance from another site. Cinthya was incredibly insightful and worked really hard to attain customer satisfaction. I would recommend using Designer Appliances for any appliance purchase 100x over.
Ashley Sobel
Russ was incredibly helpful - he had answers to every question we had, was knowledgeable and provided really helpful suggestions. We are so happy we were able to work with him, and would encourage everyone to ask for Russ when visiting the showroom!
Aaron Spielberg
I can't say enough about the customer service Designer Appliances provides. We recently purchased a Bosh refrigerator and within a few months we had issues with the ice maker. Bosh claimed the part was backordered. even with Covid the wait time was excessive. That's where Joe, and Megan stepped in. They used their industry contacts and had the parts I needed overnighted. Once the parts arrived they schedule the repair. I'm happy to say my fridge is back up and running. Five stars to Designer Appliances. I would recommend them to anyone because they stand behind what they sell.
Mike Petillo
Cinthya Gaullpa had provided me with a couple of price quotes on different models for our kitchen renovation project and had followed up on all my request promptly. Her help to us on picking our appliances was extremely helpful. She was a pleasure to do business with. All of our appliances were delivered on time and also installed by Designer Appliance. Delivery and installation i would consider to be white glove treatment and all was followed up by a courtesy call. All of their services I felt were outstanding and would highly recommend them to anyone. It was so nice to deal with people that know what they are doing from start to finish. I thank you all for your help and outstanding service. Regards Mike & Louise Petillo
Janet Phillips
I can't see us going anywhere for appliances other than Designer Appliances! Russell Berta made the process so easy and fast! We were on the phone for less than fifteen minutes and Russell was delivering eight appliances. These are my dream appliances. Not everyone carries these products. The appliances are brand new delivered to our new home! Can it be any easier?
Russell is fantastic at follow-up and follow-through as far as seeing the order from beginning to end.
k savary
Friendly and personable, Russ is awesome. Prices at DA are competitive to box stores. 2 months into the purchase the electrolux washing machine is not closing well. We are getting mediocre assistance in resolving the issue.
Prashant Joshi
Russell Berta was a fabulous salesman. He explained me everything about the grill and set up delivery / assembly on web chat. i had only one call with him to give my credit card number, To top it up he gave me a nice discount too,
Michael Sanocki
Russ was great. Very responsive and knowledgeable about all products. He spent days answering all of my questions and was never pushy. Great experience and will definitely work with him again for my future appliance needs!
Seadon Shouse
We had a fantastic experience with Russell at DA. He was truly knowledgeable and helpful, took his time to explain the difference between brands and offered honest opinion, even if that steered us to less expensive options. Would highly recommend the company and Russell in particular.
Marc Lanzkowsky
Don't let the name fool you - even though they have an incredible selection of high end appliances they can get anything. Working with Russell was easy and he was direct and up front on the best and quickest available dishwasher for my price point. Thanks Russell Berta for helping!
Iryna Surmachevska
I bought a set of kitchen appliances on 5/30/21 from Designer Appliances at Montclair NJ and would highly recommend the place.
The sales person, Russ Berta, was very knowledgeable and helpful in finding the appliances with the specific details that I wanted. Thank you, Russ!
Anna DePalma
Russell was super helpful and made the process quick and easy. He was knowledgeable about the product and helped me to make an informed decision. I have used DA in the past and will continue to use them moving forward.
psapub
A terrific experience shopping for a new washer and dryer. Russell was among the most convivial, easy going, and informative salesmen we have ever worked with. A pleasure buying from him.
Rachel Fitz Glavotsky
Russell was very helpful and knowledgeable when choosing a new Bosch fridge. We have been longtime DA customers.
Tara Mazzarella
Excellent salesperson and very professional. Russell was very knowledgeable about all of the products and he was great at helping me compare different brands and models. He responded very quickly anytime I called or emailed him. I would highly recommend him.

Unfortunately Joseph didn't have the oven I needed in stock. Cant tell you how many times salesman would say they had it in stock but couldn't deliver it for 4-6 weeks. Really? I asked if he could handle the removal and installation. He gave me the number of his installer so if I was to find it elsewhere installation would not be a problem. Talk about putting the customers needs first! This guys a straight shooter and I appreciate that. I will definitely be calling him in the future. Thanks again Joseph

During the month of May, there were two promotional rebates running for Maytag through Designer Appliances. Because we live in Wisconsin, we were hesitant to buy from Designer Appliances. I'd read some poor reviews and family even cautioned us against it - what if the products arrived damaged? Designer Appliances was cheaper than our local retailer by $1100. I spoke with Susan in customer service for about 20 minutes explaining my concerns and she assured me that it is Designer Appliances goal to make sure that customers are happy and that issues are resolved if deliveries go wrong. Today we received our 4 appliances. They were in PERFECT condition. I could not be happier that we chose to go with Designer Appliances. Saving $1100 IS worth it! Not to mention, the customer service was excellent. If you're on the fence about buying from Designer Appliances, I highly recommend you call and talk to Susan or one of their other representatives.

Russell was quick, friendly and extremely knowledgeable about the Big Green Egg. He helped us understand differences in bundles / packages as well as what would work best for our family BBQ needs. He was pleasure to work with and made it easy to purchase. Thanks Russell!
Anthony S. Torres
Russell was our go-to before when we did a whole home makeover with appliances, so we went back for his advice on a full size upright freezer, and again, he helped immediately. Got us the best deal than what was out there, so I highly recommend yet again.
A Cherpak
I had a wonderful experience with Designer Appliances / Russell from customer service after going to two competitors that were unwilling to help me out. I was in a situation where I needed a refrigerator right away and Russell was more than knowledgeable and willing to help me out. I will be purchasing additional appliances for the rest of my remodel.
Edward Hancock
Last year I had quite a problem trying to buy a Miele dishwasher. Five different deliver appointments were missed. The two vendors, I dealt with, had more excuses than fingers. I explained to the sales people that they weren’t doing me a favor, I was trying to give them money! Unbelievable. After canceling all other orders, I called Designer Appliances. Right from the beginning, they were courteous and professional. They did exactly what they said they would do and two days later I had my machine. Finally. Right then I knew Designer would be the only appliance dealer I would use, going forward. Just recently I was in the market for a new washer and dryer. I tried to do some research, on line, but there are so many different models with such subtle differences it was making what little hair I have, hurt. I called Designer and spoke with Cynthia. Again, someone who knows their business. She spent a good amount of time explaining the differences. I was able to make an informed decision. The transaction was seamless. In today’s hectic world this type of experience is very refreshing. Do your exploring, on line, while relaxing in your home. Call Designer, speak with someone who knows their products, and twenty minutes later, you’re done. In a time when everyone is going sixty miles an hours, with their hair on fire, it’s nice to know you can confidently buy a major appliance sitting on your couch with a bourbon in your hand. Cheers!
William Gruber
Great experience with "Russell" and great deal from Designer Appliances for new built in refrigerator. Knowledgable, efficient, and pleasant sales associate. If delivery and installation promised this week goes as well, this will be one of my best appliance purchases ever!
Cathy McCabe
We just completed our kitchen renovation in Hoboken and we absolutely love it! We purchased all of our appliances from Designer Appliances working with Cinthya Guallpa: Viking stove, hood and wine fridge, Subzero fridge, Miele dishwasher and GE mircrowave. We are in a condo and had to work within the small/medium footprint and her suggestions for each piece was spot on. We are thrilled with our results and wanted to give Cinthya a huge shout out for her help! 5 stars!
A year later, I just received excellent service by Russell Berta over the phone placing a Miele washer/dryer order. He responded immediately and walked me through the options. Will give another review after delivery but the order service was excellent!! So, another 5 stars!
Jennifer Kang
It was such a pleasure working with Russell. His correspondence was efficient and informative. He was able to answer all of our questions and provide options to fit our needs. I will highly recommend him to our friends and family. Thank you again for all your patience and hard work! We so appreciate it!
Vivian Jao
Russell was patient and knowledgeable and able to answer our questions both in the Montclair store and over email. He was quick to send us prices and specs and gave us good prices. He and his associate took their time explaining CFM for range hoods. We won't need the appliances delivered until midsummer and we're hoping the delivery goes as smoothly as our purchase.
Jen Aczualdez
We really were impressed by the knowledge and attentiveness of Joseph at the Monclair showroom. He took the time to explain the differences between the product they carry and we ultimately ended up getting 2 appliances based on his recommendations. We will definitely come back to Designer appliances when we renovate our kitchen.
JDE
Russell was great helping me get a new Bertazonni today. He went out of his way to help usget the rebate for free matching microwave ir vent hood. He knew his products well and informed me about next stops. We saved big and had a very pleasant experience.
Will Doherty
Seamless experience. Had answers for all of our questions. Found us what we needed and arranged delivery to be delivered 2 days later. Best part - we were able to do all of this over the phone. Our rep, Russell, was outstanding.
Sherry Goodman
I had the pleasure of speaking with Russell Berta. Felt fantastic about our washer and dryer purchase. Shopping around for washer and dryers was a tedious task. No brand stuck out as being a reliable product except Miele. His knowledge eased my uncertainty of what brand should I go with and their quality made the decision an instant yes. Not cheap but worth it in the long run when you consider all
The headaches and complaints I had read of other brands.
Do yourself a favor and go with Miele on this. We had also purchased the dishwasher
YAN PAN
We are really impressed by how super patient Russell Berta is and how knowledgeable he is about all the appliances. He made great recommendations and he's amazing finding us the best deal!!!
Ilene Butler
I worked with Cinthya Guallpa. She was so helpful and patient. I had to buy an adapter for the washing machine I was buying which was out of stock but because of the special treatment she gave me I decided to wait till you got it in stock instead of going to a different supplier. This was a great inconvenience to me but I felt that all the effort she put into the sale deserved my loyalty. I soon will need a new clothes dryer and will only place my order with her

Moved into town, needed a washer/dryer. They carry SpeedQueen and all other appliances. Russ was able to order it immediately and answered all my questions. He was a pleasure to work with and the show room is absolutely beautiful!
Arthur Strauss
Russell Berta was exceptionally helpful at getting the best price for me and clear instructions on delivery, as well as, what to expect at the time. He even provided me the name of the shipper and what to expect in their contacting me and arranging for delivery.
I appreciate the opportunity of working with him!
L Baker
Russell was very knowledgeable and willing to quickly get me the information I needed to complete my order. He was also very professional and pleasant to work with. I would definitely work with designer appliances in the future.

We had an excellent experience purchasing kitchen appliances at Designer Appliances. Russell Berta was super helpful and patient, guided us through the many options, and was readily available for questions/concerns. Highly recommend!
Jennifer Molina
Called on a Wednesday for a new panel ready dishwasher. They had the best price on it, also had it in stock, and could not be friendlier. The rep on the phone worked with the delivery company to squeeze me in for a Friday delivery. Very happy all around. This is the second item i bought from designer appliances. I would buy from them again.
Drew Sumter
Very happy with order service and coordination with my cabinet company. Great support by Cinthya, friendly and knowledgeable! Store staff was great and entertained our kids while we shopped. Looking forward to receiving/installing our new appliances.
Deepak Gupta
Buying with Designer Appliances was a very pleasant experiences. The sales associate "Russel Berta" was very knowledgeable and was able to answer all my question. I am definitely recommending to all my friends
Marketa Esaili
I was very happy with purchasing on line. With online "Help" worker we solved how to get the refrigerator into the kitchen. During the payment I scheduled my later delivery date. Before the delivery day I received the phone call from Design Appliances confirming day of delivery and giving me time frame for truck arrival. Then during that time I received phone call, that the truck arrives within about 45 minutes. Next call was when the truck arrived. Hands of 2 workers were full to move the heavy and 27.5 cubic feet refrigerator into the kitchen. Refrigerator handles and my entry door had to be removed to pull appliance thru into the house. Both guys were working hard and fast, no complains and cheerful all the time although I could see they were tired. They put handles back on refrigerator, hung the door back and delivery was accomplished. As soon I returned back to my computer, I found in my email documented announcement about delivery. This my second appliance purchase from this store. Very happy with prices and service.
Susan Moscou
I walked into Designer Appliances on President's Day (2/17/20) and was immediately greeted by Russell Berta, sales manager. Mr. Berta was very professional, responded my questions, and provided valuable information. Looking forward to my next purchase (already in the works) because of this experience.
Anne Stinson
Just purchased through Russel. Seamless easy transaction! Got me exactly what I wanted in record time. A+++
Sarah Roe
Russ made buying all of our Kitchen appliances easy and convenient! Open on Sundays and very knowledgeable about luxury appliances!!
Rob Dressler
Joe Cocuzza at Designer Appliances in Montclair was extremely helpful when we had to replace our washer and dryer on short notice. Joe helped us to select our new appliances at a great price and delivery turnaround was fast. On delivery day we could track the status and timing of the delivery team and everything was installed perfectly. A+++ all around forJoe and Designer Appliances.
Diane Elam
Awesome!
Shopping for a major appliance, in my case a dishwasher, can be stressful but Russ and Designer Appliances made it easy. Knowledgeable, Fast, Nice, and Free Shipping! Well designed website, terrific pricing, and Russ is a fantastic customer service rep. Thanks!
Cy T
Russell is very helpful, friendly, knowledgeable about the appliances. He makes our kitchen appliances’s shopping experience very pleasant, quick n hassle free.

Mr. Russell Berta, our salesman, treated us with respect and professionalism . He was very knowledgeable and answered our many questions. Mr. Berta was patient and willing to work with us. My experience was excellent !
Hans Hauck
My experience with Designer Appliances has been nothing but exceptional.
Designer Appliances provided the best value for my money on a number of items purchased. The sales team and Joseph Cocuzza specifically was tremendous providing knowledable feedback and guidance during the process. He couldn't have made the process any easier and enjoyable.
Well done Designer Appliances- You have gained my loyalty for future purchases.
mindy weiss
I was worried that they were in New Jersey but I found what I wanted online which Home Depot didn’t carry & they had Bosch brand washer/dryer stackable I had it delivered as well as set up & the people who I spoke to about the purchase was great very nice patient & explained everything to me!!! The delivery guys were respectful did the install with no issues made sure it worked properly cleaned up after & took my old machine I could not ask for better service!!!! They are worth checking out for any appliance you need customer service #1
Brett C
We are doing a kitchen renovation and this company and their salesman Andrew Deehan went out of their way to make us happy. Our crew unreasonably moved up when they required appliances and Designer Appliances and Andrew got creative to get things delivered early. I would go out of my way to use them again and will recommend them to anyone that will listen. It has truly been a pleasure working with this company!
beastywvu
Designer Appliances provided us a great overall experience: a new set of Miele washer and dryer at a competitive price. Sales was fantastic and installation was seamless. We will be sure to return in the future when looking kitchen appliances.
Judith King-Sippel-Heim
Russell Berta at Designer Appliances was beyond helpful. He was not only extremely informative but patient and kind. A trustworthy and experienced individual. Thank you so very much!!!!
Dale Locke
Russ Berta was the sales rep that assisted me. He was very responsive to getting my order of a new refrigerator processed and on its way since my old refrigerator died. Very friendly and professional. Found that Designer Appliances had the best price and beat the prices of all sources in the Atlanta GA area.
Cristina Schwingl
Russell was great! I received the wrong colored knobs for my cooktop. After I brought it to his attention he was very helpful and was able to have the company send it to me.
Francesco Tonelli
Pleasant and efficient communication to place the order.
Competitive pricing.
I bought a Dual Fuel 36" Wolf stove and it was delivered the day we agreed on. The delivery team was extremely courteous and respectful of my house. They did an excellent job in assembling and installing the unit and left the place spotless.
A very pleasant experience.
Prashant Kher
Russell was very helpful in understanding our refrigerator needs and recommending the best product. He was very knowledgeable and provided outstanding customer service.
Rubyna Zito
Russell was an absolute pleasure to work with. He was attentive and not pushy and helped me find the right products for my kitchen. He really helped us bring our vision to life. Thanks!!
Brendan Song
Offers the lowest prices and extremely quick to respond. Could not be happier with my purchasing experience
Ed B.
I bought a Large Green Egg grill package from them. Russel was excellent to deal with and was very helpful. Made the purchase super easy and no hassle. I would highly recommend this place.
Kameelah Phillips
I visited 3 other vendors before finding Designer Appliances and-specifically- Cinthya. Upon entering the studio Cinthya greeted me and offered to show me the appliances I was considering. She was extremely knowledgeable about all of the brands and asked appropriate questions about my project in order to better understand my needs and tailor the stove, fridge, etc. to my family and cooking style.
She put me totally at ease about my purchase. I ordered a hood, dishwasher, range, microwave and refrigerator with her. The customer service I received is on par with what you would expect for the the amount you’re spending with these high-end purchases. Throughout the transaction she followed up to make sure that I was happy with my decisions and even helped provide information the kitchen designer needed. This has been my biggest appliance purchase and my best experience. I live in Manhattan but would absolutely return to Jersey to work with her again. I HIGHLY recommend Designer Appliances and Cinthya as your guide to high end appliance purchases. You will not be disappointed.
Walter Cioccia
Russell @Designer Appliances is knowledgeable, easy and flexible to work with! Highly recommended. The displays at the stores are a big plus.
Rich M
Very responsive and helpful getting a full suite of kitchen & laundry appliances for our total remodel. We needed some very specific sizes to accommodate space issues and the salesman Justin was great. Our wine fridge died in less than a year and DA facilitated us getting a replacement with the manufacturer- very smoothly. We are fans.
Ozlem Serif
Such an amazing shopping experience. The showroom in Bedminster has such a wide selection and all the associates were incredibly kind and helpful. Took their time to review different options, ask pertinent questions, and provide helpful tips. When it came time to place my order, Cinthya was incredibly helpful, I knew I was getting the best price around.
Renata Weber
Cinthya was awesome. Helpful, informative and very patient with us. She followed up but was never pushy when our construction plans were delayed and we were not ready to order the new laundry appliances. She checked in every few months and kept us up to sate with any changes new models.
Jill Clark
Russell Berta is the Customer Service "Master of the Universe"!!!! The transaction and price of the appliance I ordered were amazing. I highly recommend Designer Appliances AND RUSSELL BERTA. You'll be very happy.
JoAnh Pitts
This was the most seamless transactions I have ever experienced, considering the type of purchase. I texted Cinthia, the business manager our models of washer and dryer, she quickly texted back with the quotes and invoices and provided with fastest delivery date and was completed with a 2 min call for payment. She was very detailed, fast and friendly! Thank you so much for your professionalism and excellent customer service.
Wayne Rodriquez
Buying from Designer Appliances was great , the customer service rep, Melissa was great she was as accommodating as could be, she was polite , kind easy to speak to and she got the job done.. I had a problem with the transportation company that they use. They were the worst, they tried to get extra money out of me for the delivery when delivery is free. Melissa put a stop to that. when they delivered the items they unwrapped everything and left the garbage in the middle of my lawn. They have no respect for other peoples property. No class what so ever. I hope they get a better delivery service that's customer friendly. Because they make Designer Appliances look bad. Overall, everything worked out. If it wasn't for Melissa things wouldn't have gone so smooth. She's the best. I recommend everyone to buy from them. Prices are Great! *************
Tony Igel
I must admit to being pleasantly surprised. I dealt with a salesperson who was incredibly knowledgeable and more importantly helpful. I am an older person and greatly appreciated the way this individual walked me thru the options available and clarified everything for me. Highly unusual in today's world to get someone willing to take the time and make the effort.
I am actually now considering ordering 2 more appliances from this store if their price is as competitive as it was for my previous purchase.
Again, Many Thanks for the time and assistance and clarification on a difficult product choice.
sjw200
I had a great experience with Designer Appliances. They were very diligent about scheduling my delivery and their installers did a very professional job installing my washer and dryer. I have already recommended them to several friends.
Debra Rosenfeld
Russell Berta was incredibly knowledgeable and a great listener. He did not push or rush my purchase and as a result I placed my order during our first conversation. I hope everything goes as smoothly as the purchase.
amy duffy
Designer Appliances is so great! I have gotten a refrigerator and washing machine from them in the past few weeks and both are great. This is a super convenient way to get appliances locally. Prices and customer service are top notch!
R P-K
I have never shopped here before and I’m so glad I decided to give it a try because I needed a new range. Joseph was so helpful in answering all of my many questions. Prices are competitive and they sell regular appliances to high end so you have a big price range to choose from. The showroom in Montclair mainly has the mid to upper range items on display and I loved this so I could really see some of the better options out there. I can’t wait to get our new range!
Jim Wescott
Joseph was professional, knowledgeable and no-pressure. We came into the store having done our research for a new refrigerator, but wanted to hear from someone with in-depth knowledge to test our thinking. Joseph delivered. This is our third purchase over the past decade and we will continue to use Design Appliance for our appliance needs.
Arul Sundaram
Russell delivered great service - friendly, knowledgeable, and fast. He helped us decide on the product we needed, get the best price, and schedule installation. Thanks!
Linella Gavin
Designer Appliances is one of the few local places to purchase Big Green Egg accessories. I wanted to purchase a number of accessories for a gift. Russell Berta was friendly, responsive and easy to work with. DA even locally delivered to my home.
francine grenci
I was able to walk in and order exactly what I was looking for. Joseph was a huge help, and he bent over backwards to match a price from a different retailer. I appreciate his assistance, and I would recommend Designer Appliances for anyone looking for a new range.
Josh Me
Joseph Cocuzza is extremely helpful, very knowledgeable, explained the difference in products and managed to find a dishwasher in stock with a lower then advertised price that fit all my requirements. Got it to me in 2 days, during the 2020 pandemic.
I highly recommend this impressive outfit and many thanks to Joseph specifically.
Pamela Della Motta
The whole experience with Designer Appliances was seamless - from purchase to delivery. We miscalculated on the dishwasher and thanks to Cinthya our project timeline was not jeopardized.
Cinthya is amazing! She helped us through from beginning to end. Her knowledge of each product and her honest opinions on all of them helped us select the best appliances that matched our budget. This gave us peace of mind knowing that we purchased the best products for us. Plus she is just such a pleasant person to work with. I give her 5 stars!
Daniel Levy
Russ was amazing to work with. From his professional and product knowledge to seeing the process though from the first call to delivery, everything was top notch. Would not hesitate to return to him in the future
R Davis
Joseph was very helpful today and directed me to purchasing the washer that I was really looking for all along, even though I did a bit of my own research. If was fun just looking around at the store in Montclair. Real stuff: not just pictures on line. If you are into high-end appliances and have the bucks it's certainly worth a visit if you are in the area. If I were a kid again I would call this place a playroom.
Sergio Alvarez
Russell Berta was Awesome! Very responsive on the direct chat, very informative and very thorough. Was able to get a great deal on a washer and dryer combo, that beat all my expectations. Thanks Again Russell!
Dhineshkumar Muthu
Placed a washer/dryer order via phone with Russ, who was knowledgeable on product and process e.g. delivery/installation. After the order was placed, he was still approachable and responded to every inquiry in a timely manner. Delivery and installation was quick and easy.
wendy miller
Sales Associate Joe Cocuzza made for a very effortless sale. I purchased a gas stove, dishwasher and refrigerator and his expertise helped me pick the right appliance for my new kitchen.
I chose to purchase thru Designer Appliances because I didn't want to be treated to a 'hard sale' by someone who didn't have full knowledge of the merchandise.
I also have peace of mind knowing that if I have any problem with my appliances I will not be given any runaround on repairs or replacement.
Thank you Joe!
Jenny Grossman
Today I had the pleasure of working with Russell Berta. He was so professional, knowledgeable & kind! I would highly recommend going to Designer Appliances in Montclair & working with him. You will not be disappointed!
Debbie Spear
I first chatted with Russell Berta on line a few weeks ago. He gave me the information I needed to make a decision along with his direct#. Well today I called and my order just took minutes. Very helpful and professional.
Jason Tielve
This is the second time I am using designer appliances. I have worked with Russel Berta both time. This guy is amazing his response time is excellent, knowledgeable and patient he links your needs to the products at the proper price points. I wouldn't shop anywhere else.
Richard Porzio
After extensive review and multiple trips to local appliance stores, I went with my first decision. I purchased a Bertazzoni via Designer Appliances and could not be happier.
The stove looks great in my remodeled kitchen, and the pre-sales, interim and post-sales support could not have been better. Designer Appliances' follow-up was continual and the delivery personnel were outstanding and very obliging.
Go Designer Appliances!
Russ B
I recently purchased a washer and dryer from Designer Appliances. Russell in sales was accommodating and knowledgeable. My experience was extremely positive and hassle-free.
Lanie Sturdivant
ordered washer/dryer and refrigerator. Russell was very helpful in delaying delivery for our new home. Discount offered in addition to great prices...much lower than big box stores.
Terrie NYC
I previously purchased a refrigerator from Cinthya at Designer Appliances and I thought she was so great I decided to go back when we needed to purchase a stove. Cinthya is so pleasant to speak with, very knowledgeable and friendly. I picked out my stove (got all the necessary details of its upgrades) and purchased on Monday, installed on Friday and very, very happy with it! When I need my new air conditioner this summer I’m definitely giving Cinthya my business. Great employee! 😬
Popo Ling
Russel was very helpful. He was very understanding and patient in assisting us in finding our new washer and dryer. I have gone to other retailers who did not want to help, but he made sure we left with what we wanted. Thank you very much, Geoula Cahn. Baltimore.
Seth Taube
Russell was informative, knowledgeable and wonderful to deal with. He answered all our many questions and researched and found answers to what he was not sure of. We are very happy to give him our sale.
Amanda Schaak
Had a great experience with Russell - he was extremely helpful and knowledgeable about all of the product! He was amazing!
Christopher Lowe
Best Service!!! I went to 5 stores before visiting Designer Appliances in Montclair. I should have gone there first. During the pandemic, with products in short supply and backorder times misleading, Joe spent a couple of hours with me to successfully track down a refrigerator that not only meets all of our needs for functionality, efficiency and design, but also meets our time table--ASAP. If you are looking for quality appliances, and even better service, Designer Appliances is your store, and Joe Cocuzza is your man.
Nick Colson
Ordered all of the appliances for my new bar from Designer Appliances. Browsing the products on their website was easy, and finalizing everything with Russ made some tough decisions that much easier.
Vate Powell
We purchased a Bosch dishwasher from Designer Appliances and couldn't have had a better experience. I had done a lot of research on them before going in and they were extremely knowledgeable about the machines and could answer my questions. The store seems small from the outside, but it is well laid out and they had many models of Bosch, Miele, etc. and Neil took the time to show us all of the variations.
We got an estimate and confirmed that it was a _very_ good price. When we went back we also met the owner, Tahi, who was in the store and helped with the final purchase. Delivery and installation was later in the week and went off without a hitch.
It's really refreshing to do business with someone in the community rather than a big box store. When we redo our kitchen, we will be back for sure.
Andrew Smith
Designer Appliances customer service was stellar from beginning to end; from helping search for the right product that fit our oven needs, receiving the best price, to delivery and installation. All of this occurred during the COVID-19 quarantine and the installers were very careful in our house, using the proper PPE and cleaning up after themselves. We'll use Designer Appliances when we need household appliances in the future.
Dana Wissing
Russell was extremely helpful when it came to placing an order for our appliances and ensuring we had the right electrical and plumbing set-up beforehand. Thanks for your help, Russell!
Eric O'Toole
Enjoyed choosing some new kitchen pieces with Joseph. On a busy Saturday, he proactively communicated when he'd have a window to help, which was an excellent time-saver. Joseph is very product-knowledgable and steers in the right direction given budget, interests, and other considerations. Knows the brands and specs...and handily weighs the tradeoffs of those factors with price. Happy I stopped in!
Francis Thomas-Nunez
Fist time homebuyers. Love the service; not pushy and took her time explaining pros and cons of each appliance we liked. Delivery was very white-glove. Have recommended to our friends.
Greg Brailsford
Ordered an LG refrigerator two weeks ago. Got a great price. They kept me up to date with emails throughout process. They used AM Home Delivery for the carrier and they were AMAZING. Best carrier I ever had deliver a large item. I didn't even order inside delivery but these guys not only did so but removed the doors of the fridge w/o me even asking in order to get it in the door. I'm including this in DA's review because many online retailers use awful shippers and these guys don't. Kudos.
Kim Neff
It started off good. When my washer was delivered there was damage. It has been over a week with still not response from them. Horrible experience.
UPDATE: Russ has really helped me. Hopefully my replacement washer will be on the way!
AWright
Great customer service from Russel with placing my order - professional, personable and helpful. Very impressed with Designer Appliances so far - I'll update after the appliances are delivered. Thanks!
Myridia Gustus
We are building a home in Texas and have just started framing, but these black Friday deals were too good to pass up! They are holding on to them until we will need them delivered at no charge, which helped us out a lot! We only had to pay for them in full, which we would've done anyway.
Susan was so helpful. I called the store just to ask a couple of questions and she was able to answer everything. Free shipping, no taxes, amazing black Friday deals, extra coupons, and rebates?! Definitely would shop here again.
Adam Winters
Russ was a great help in selecting appliances for our new kitchen. He beat all the big box stores in price and helped maximize all of the vendor rebates for us.
Laurie Davis
Cannot speak highly enough of Designer Appliances! Cinthya was INCREDIBLE throughout the process - we bought all of our kitchen appliances here and they helped with selection, measurements, installation, rebates, etc. Truly exceptional customer service. Have truly never been so satisfied!
Paula P
Russ has been very helpful, flexible and patient in our quest for a new all refrigerator and all freezer to replace our 30 year Subzeros which are dying. We need to retrofit cabinetry after the old units are removed and before the new ones are installed and he has been able to accommodate our timeframe.
Ann Labin
I worked with Russell and had a very good experience. I was on a market for a five piece appliance package. He was professional, friendly and knowledgeable. Would definitely work with him next time.
Randy Rivera
Russell Berta was very helpful with my search for a new gas range. He gave me an honest opinion and didn't try to sell me something I didn't need.
Nicole Fayak
Russell at Designer Appliances in Bedminster, NJ is very helpful and will be delivering a new washer/dryer in only 2 days! Thank you so much.
Tatjana Sofkoska
Bad return policy. Please read very carefully their policies before ordering anything. I feel manipulated and cheated. Yes, they have good appliance selection and lower prices than the competitors but once the order is place you can pray that all is well and good. They are in a selling business only, that is taking the money away.
Ordered dishwasher that costed $700 from this place. It was delivered as scheduled. The appliance was unpacked and left in front of my door without the packaging and the exterior box. Once we removed the plastic cover, we realized that i have mismeasured the cabinet opening 1" shorter than the appliance width. We taped the plastic back and contacted the customer service for return. First we had to wait for RMA # to return the appliance, there is a $250 freight charge and 20% restocking fee because the appliance has NO BOX (this is the box that was taken by the delivery team). Total of $390 only to return the unused unopened item. I asked them if it is possible to get a store credit, or replace the dishwasher with another alliance and avoid the restocking fee. They would not allow this. This place should be put out of business per my opinion. For your reference this is part of their return policy issued with the RMA number:
"Please be sure to adhere to the following guidelines for the return. Our warehouse will automatically reject any product that doesn’t adhere to these rules.
Do not write on the manufacturer’s box or packing materials.
If you need to re-seal the appliance, please use clear tape. Do not use an excess of tape to reseal the box.
Please reference the RMA number on the return label.
If the warehouse notes damage to any box, that box will be rejected. Please note that damage includes, but is not limited to, rips, tears, and holes. For safety, we advise that you overbox the package for a safe return.
Once the Fisher Paykel dishwasher has been received and inspected, you will be refunded minus the associated shipping and restocking fees. All returns are subject to a restocking fee, which will be determined during the inspection by our returns team (the average restocking fee is 20%).

How lucky was I to have Joseph answer the phone when I needed information about a Samsung range? Very lucky! He knew exactly what I was looking for. He had all the costs at his fingertips. I was going to come into the Bedminster store, a 45 minute ride from my house, but didnt need to. Joseph took my order, explained everything I needed to know and was professional yet so sweet. The only downside, wait for it, was I didn't get to come into the store and meet this kind and knowledgable man. Will be back to this store for any future needs.

Always a great shopping experience with Designer Appliances. They always have my choice of appliance in stock, or get it very quickly; they're always pleasant and helpful; they offer the best deals on high end appliances with excellent, reliable service. Highly recommend!

Excellent transaction! Cinthya was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. She gave us a full presentation of the miele coffee system. Not only was it an informative presentation but we received two delicious freshly brewed cups of coffee. We are very happy that we stopped at designer appliances and grateful for all the details and 1st hand coffee experience We received. We bought our machine and highly recommend designer appliances. A big thank you to Cinthya for her patience while answering all our questions.

I bought a dishwasher from them, and Cinthya was a pleasure to work with. The price was exactly the same as other stores, and the customer service was better. Very attentive (without being intrusive) and I was able to schedule delivery within a week! Happy to have a local place get my business!

My experience was excellent. The person that helped me was friendly, knowledgeable and focused on making sure that I was happy with my purchase. I had several followup questions before I made my final decision and those were all answered promptly. The prices were the best I found anywhere, online or brick and mortar. I highly recommend you buy from Designer Appliances!

Cinthya was very knowledgeable and patient with my questioning and decision making. She made the process very easy and had my best interest in mind. Thanks to the informative videos Designer Appliance posted on YouTube it helped steer my decision on what to look for.

I ordered a fridge online and three days later I was told it was discontinued. I ordered another one and three days later it was I was called and told it was on back order.
I finally got transferred to sales (Joe Cocuzza) and he helped me over the phone to get the fridge I needed. Great customer service on his part.
I strongly recommend that the site makes changes to accurately depict the status of their products.

Called designer appliance looking for a sink that’s impossible to find but the nice sales man Joseph Cocuzza found me a similar in stock built in sink that was actually cheaper and nicer! Not only that, it will be delivered in the next 4-6 days. Thanks again

Cinthya was extremely helpful. She patiently walked us through all of our options and made valuable & insightful recommendations. She was always responsive to calls and emails, and was thorough with her research. We never felt pressured...it was obvious that she had our best interests in-mind. A great experience.

Russ was incredible, prompt response and helped us quickly replace a broken dishwasher during a global pandemic. Excellent service! Hope all are staying safe!

Great experience. Walked in on a Sunday after looking at big department stores. The staff was extremely helpful and told us about a rebate being offered. We bought our stove and oven within a matter of minutes. Very accommodating.
