Jeff is American Buyers Discount's one man show. He gave us plenty of information, made recommendations, and helped us select honeycomb shades (both translucent and black out) for our home. We are still waiting for our windows to get replaced by another company so we haven't placed our order yet but plan to within the first month or so of the year.
Description of Work: We received an estimate for honeycomb shades for 4 windows and a sliding glass door.

I liked him very much. I did not like a helper who installed some of the blinds. But the main person was terrific. I'm sorry, I can't remember how much this cost but I thought it was reasonable and I had a special that decreased the cost as well.
Description of Work: Blinds for 1 big and 3 smaller windows. Sun blind for 3 windows. Miniblind for small window.

When I was looking for blinds I purchased an Angie's List Big Deal discount from American Buyers Discount. Jeff contacted me with a day or two through the website and made an appointment to meet me at my new home. He explained the features and cost of various options for window treatments. After I told him the style I wanted, he measured the windows and French doors and calculated the cost. I made a 50% downpayment. Two weeks later he returned and installed the blinds. He is very knowledgeable, having worked in the industry for many years, and made sure I understood the features and costs of all his products so that I feel I made a thoroughly informed decision. I can't speak to the issue of price since I did not solicit a second estimate.
Description of Work: Helped me select and order Hunter Douglas shades for 13 windows/doors in my new home. Returned two weeks later to install them and make sure I understood how they worked. Lifetime warranty.

Every part of the process of purchasing these blinds was handled professionally by American Buyers Discount and specifically by their representative Jeff Primis. Jeff made it easy and comfortable for us to chose the kind of window covering that was best for us. The installation was completed in less than an hour and we love the results.
Description of Work: On our first appointment Jeff showed us what kinds of blinds were available for our two large front windows. We chose a 2" real wood blind with the literise feature. Jeff took all the necessary measurements, gave us a price and an approximate date when we could have them installed. A little over 3 weeks later Jeff came in and installed our new blinds.

Thank you for your generous review. I knew you picked the right choice. Honeycomb shades insulate all year round, reducing your monthly energy bills. The best part is the limited lifetime warranty. That is the way life should be. Thanks again, Jeff American Buyers

I had a very good experience with the company. The salesman took lots of time to help me pick the right blinds and the right colors. I found all his recommendations to be spot on. The installation was also a very good experience and I love the blinds. He was prompt and professional. I could not have asked for a better experience.

I purchased an Angie's BIg Deal for shades through American Buyers Discount. Jeffrey was our provider throughout the whole process. Because of health reasons, I was unable to have the work done by the expiration date. Jeffrey was so accommodating and assured me that he would come whenever. Once onsite, he was professional, punctual and had great suggestions. AND he brought his favorite chocolate chip cookies every time! We had only one snag - once hung, I was disappointed the shades covered the woodwork of the windows in our bedroom. Not a problem. Jeffrey took them down, remeasured and had the newly cut shades to us in under 2 weeks. Then the second set did not fit two windows. Down they came again. BTW - We had watched Jeffrey measure so the mistake was not his. Finally, he was just here this past Saturday with more cookies and the last set fit perfectly. The additional redoes in the bedroom for 4 windows cost us $200, which I considered reasonable. An extra bonus was that Hunter Douglas gave us a $175 VISA rebate for our business. I would definitely recommend Jeffrey and his company - the shades are beautiful and his service was top notch.

Jeff Primis came to our home, showed us all the available options and helped us in our selection. He was very knowledgable and never pressured us into making a decision. We selected the blinds and provided a deposit. Jeff ordered the blinds which arrived within the designated three week time span. One day after the blinds arrived they were installed. The installers were very professional and showed a great deal of respect for our home. We love the look the blinds give the room. Although the blinds were expensive, we feel they were worth the cost. Jeff made the process of selecting, buying, and installing the blinds a pleasurable experience.
Description of Work: Removed old window treatments and installed new Hunter Douglas Silhouette blinds on two windows and Hunter Douglas Liminette blinds on a patio door.

Jeff was great to work with. He responded immediately to set up an appointment in late January to go over the various blinds, the Hunter Douglas brand, and to measure the windows. The blinds were ordered and Jeff returned in late February for the installation. Jeff is personable,professional, and takes great pride in his work. I'm very pleased!

Everything started well. The consultation and picking out of the blinds was easy. The problems started when the blinds were installed. There are pieces that are warped, the blinds cannot be pulled up, the string hangs on the floor, they don't sit right on the ledge, the rods are too big, etc. We have had the owner of the company to the home to look at the issues. Jeff said that he would make everything right, he understood our frustrations and that he would be in touch. By this time, we got to bad weather and the holidays so we put off the corrections until after the holidays. Since then, American Buyers Discount has been unresponsive. We've tried to get in touch with them, we've asked Angie's List to get in touch with them and they haven't responded at all.

I hoped I was getting a good deal through Angies list, but probably paid a premium price. (I checked a comparable Hunter Douglas window treatment at Home Depot which was less than what I paid.) Still, I received excellent service and am overall pleased.

Thank you for your review. Home Depot does not carry the Hunter Douglas shades that you purchased from us. Plus, their installers that do the measuring and installation are not certified Hunter Douglas installers. Home Depot uses a third party to do their measures and installations. Therefore, you do not know the quality of their work. I called you months ago to adjust the shade in the piano room. Please call me when I can stop over . Thanks, Jeff
