I stopped by Kepler's, looked at their samples of upholstering fabric. took some samples home, and made choices. An appointment was made for their representative to come out and look at the couch and loveseat I wanted reupholstered. They came to my home and we discussed fabric and price. Because it was near Christmas, we decided it would be best if they began the project after the holidays. I didn't want to be without furniture over Christmas, and their schedule for the job was eight to ten weeks out. When the fabric came into their shop, they called me. After the holidays, they came out and picked up my furniture, and then in a couple of weeks called to set up the time for delivery. The couch and loveseat are beautiful and the material used is excellent. Because the furniture is high quality, and the perfect size for us, it made sense to reupholster, rather than buying new furniture. I am so pleased with the job that Kepler's did, I would recommend them to anyone who wants to reupholster. I love it.
Description of Work: Kepler's did an excellent job of reupholstering a couch and loveseat for my living room. They told me how long it would take to get the fabric in and how long it would take after the fabric came in, to complete the job. The workmanship is wonderful. I am extremely pleased with the company and will use them again.

We had our seat cushions for our dining room recovered. The work was done well. We were aware of the long wait when we brought the cushions in. I would use them again, we live out of state (WA) and because of their great reviews on Angie's list thats where we brought our business. I thought the price was a tad high, but then again I haven't had anything reupholstered. You get what you pay, and these turned out very nice.

We were told the fabric was in stock, then we were later told it was on back order. When we picked up the chairs, the backs of the chairs were not constructed correctly. The owner, Marvin Ankele, repeatedly told us "he didn't understand" what we were talking about. Since he just kept repeating he didn't understand every time we tried to talk to him about the problem, we just gave up trying. We never able to get him to fix the chairs.
Description of Work: We had two chairs reupholstered. We ordered the fabric January 4th and the chairs were ready to be picked up March 3.

Response from Kepler's Upholstery & Furniture
It is unfortunate, but sometimes you just can't please everyone. After redoing the backs as Member requested, her and her husband left here happily with their chairs. A few days later she called and when she was trying to explain to us that she still wasn't happy she repeatedly told us she was going to "make our lives hell", then hung up before we could tell her to bring the chairs in again. We tried calling back several times, but she would just hang up on us. We are more than willing to work with someone if there is an issue, but both parties need to be rational about the situation. We wouldn't be here after almost 50 years in the Tigard area if we left our clients unsatisfied. It is saddening to us that people have to resort to bad mouthing a company all over the internet instead of resolving the issue in a reasonable manner. Our offer still stands to make her 100% satisfied. As for the fabric being out of stock, that is out of our control and if it was an issue she could have re-selected. (It was indicated to us that it was not an issue, she was told about the back order and that the date of delivery was tentative.) When we checked stock, they had ample yardage, but when they physically pulled it, it didn't measure out as what they had on hand. It is rare, but it does happen. Knowing that her fabric had been back ordered, as a courtesy, we wanted to get her chairs out to her as soon as possible so Member didn't have to wait any longer. She had issue with that, thinking that it meant our quality was not satisfactory. When in actuality we stopped production in the back and got her job up on the bench to get it out to her as timely possible. Our normal turn-around time is 5-10 business days, it took us 3 days, again because we knew she had been waiting. It doesn’t take actually 5 days to upholster two chairs. We finish other projects and then work on the ones we had brought in. We have tried to please Member and made several attempts to fix the problem and still would be willing to if she would contact us. We would like to have a resolution to this matter as much as I am sure she would.

I would not hesitate to recommend Kepler's.
Description of Work: Had a leather-wrapped chair from Asia repaired, which had a broken leg. Excellent job. Kepler's is focused on doing the job right, insuring structural integrity for a lasting fix. Also had 4 antique chairs refinished. Another excellent job. While the price seemed high, the results were amazing, and Kepler's again paid attention to structural repairs on each chair. These are sentimental chairs, and as such, I was willing to spend the money to get them into excellent condition. They will be passed on to the next generation... I have to think that Kepler's is a dying breed of craftsmanship in a society of disposable goods.

They're fabulous. They had excellent reviews on line. That is why I hired them. I just moved back into my house after renting it out for 2 years. I've had people in and out constantly since June of last year. I am completely pleased. I will use them again in the future.

Overall process for getting an estimate was excellent.
Description of Work: I had Kepler's give an estimate on reupholstering a large club-style chair and ottoman. The woman in the store who helped me select fabric sample books to checkout was extremely informative. She was also very helpful when I called to schedule an estimate. The estimator was on-time and explained in detail how the work would be done. I have no doubt that the work would have been excellent. I decided not to reupholster the chair because I couldn't afford it at the time, but when I do decide to have the work done I will definitely use Kepler's, even if the cost is a bit more than others.

They did a beautiful job on the loveseat and a lovely job on the chair. They know what they are doing and are very no nonsense. If there is something that will increase the price of the job, they call and consult with you beforehand . I will be going back to them.

They were very helpful in choosing fabric and trim styles. I was unable to bring in the actual couch frame for them to match, and they went with my measurements. The cushions ended up a little too short, and the shop remade the cushions at their own expense. They were very pleasant and understanding to deal with, even though it was a difficult situation. I think that this level of professionalism isn't common these days. I highly recommend them.

Very easy going and accommodating from the initial contact by phone. Explained problem, received ballpark estimate over the phone that explained their pricing model, whcih seem very fair. Offered pick-up and delivery, which was not needed, but upon arrival at the store in my vehicle, they insisted on carrying the chair in themselves. Same when I went t o pick it up. They did the loading. The over-the-phone estimate was confirmed in person, and the final bill was spot on. Excellent quality of workmanship and work completed earlier than promised/expected.

Kepler's did a wonderful job on our sofas. The talked to several upholsterers before choosing Keplers. Their price was competitive and their customer service was far better than the other places we went. Kepler's spent a lot of time helping us choose the best type and color of leather. They let us take samples home so we could be sure we made the right choice. Kepler's was very good about telling us the different options and the cost of each so we could get exactly what we wanted. The work was done quickly and the sofas look fantastic. Kepler's did a great job.

The print fabric was matched perfectly and looks terrific. The mohair fabric on the loveseat also looks very good. Where we had trouble was in the filling for the cushions. I asked for down covered foam expecting soft seating. What I got was seat cushions that sat far firmer than I wanted. They replaced the foam with what I was told was the softest foam available. It was still very firm. Finally we went with all down which I had to pay extra for. That was a big mistake. I never got the original down wrap back, and didn't expect to need it. When I took the cushions to an upholsterer I had used previously, I had to buy a second down wrap for much softer foam. I finally got the cushions I wanted, no thanks to Keppler's.

Work with the owner or interior designer - great customer service. My experience with the manager was very negative and not at all focused on the customer - one of the worst examples of service I have had. He later apologized.

It went great - hopefully it will not break again. We do not know where the original springs were placed and can not duplicate them since they were more than 100 years old the last time they were repaired somewhere else.

The number of fabrics to choose from was excellent. Their work was superb. My only problem was that the project was projected to take 3-4 weeks but took 5 weeks without any communication about the delay. This was relatively minor and my overall impression of their staff is very positive.

Response from Kepler's Upholstery & Furniture
Hi Member, Thanks for the report you made, we really appreciate the high marks! I wanted to explain to you about the time frame. If you look at your invoice, next to the 3-4 weeks, it says "Approximate Start 3-4 weeks". Which means we will start your project in that time frame, then we complete it within 5-10 business days after that (sooner if possible, it depends on the size of the job). We actually had a date that you needed to have your seats done by, which was written on your order as 6/22/2010 and I noticed you picked them up on 6/18, when we have a due date listed on and invoice, that is the target completion date that we use. I apologize if that the time frame wasn't better explained to you when you wrote your order. We appreciate the business, and we do hope that you will consider using us for future projects. Thanks again for your report!
