Tinley Park Kitchen & Bath creates happy customers<br />
The following is a letter from<br />
Sharon and Jeff N., satisfied customers<br />
of Tinley Park Kitchen<br />
and Bath Shoppe. The cabinets<br />
are Dura Supreme, Cherry Cider<br />
with Cambria Nevern countertops.<br />
Spring 2017<br />
I want to take a moment to<br />
share the wonderful experience<br />
we had in working with Tinley<br />
Park Kitchen & Bath in remodeling<br />
our kitchen. While we<br />
were initially uncertain whether<br />
they could meet our design and<br />
quality needs, as we got to know<br />
our designer, Rachel, we grew<br />
increasingly confident in her<br />
abilities to design the kitchen we<br />
wanted and their ability to offer<br />
higher-end cabinetry.<br />
Indeed, as we realized early<br />
on, kitchen remodels can be expensive<br />
and create a great deal<br />
of inconvenience. We appreciated<br />
the honesty of our designer,<br />
and the timeline she established<br />
for our remodel was pretty much<br />
spot-on and perfect in its execution.<br />
We also appreciated her incredible<br />
patience with us. Her professionalism<br />
was beyond compare<br />
and we are truly grateful for her<br />
willingness to help us through<br />
our struggles, as we searched for<br />
the highest-quality alternatives to<br />
meet our needs. Rachel always<br />
brought to the table numerous alternatives<br />
and shared them with<br />
us in such a pleasant and caring<br />
manner.<br />
I would also like to thank the<br />
carpentry team that was assigned<br />
to our project. These two individuals<br />
were always polite, on<br />
time and truly experts in their<br />
multiple fields. I cannot overstate<br />
how incredibly exceptional<br />
the cuts were in the crown molding,<br />
the cabinetry and the island.<br />
Attention to detail was present<br />
every day in their work. I truly<br />
enjoyed having them in our<br />
home.<br />
With the utmost sincerity<br />
and without hesitation, I would<br />
highly recommend Tinley Park<br />
Kitchen & Bath for any customer<br />
looking for a great design<br />
partner who has the capability of<br />
providing higher-end cabinetry.<br />
The entire team was incredible.<br />
Sincerely,<br />
Jeff and Sharon<br />
Tinley Park Kitchen & Bath’s<br />
goal is to make all of their customers<br />
feel Jeff and Sharon. Tinley<br />
Park Kitchen & Bath loves<br />
what they do, and are committed<br />
to customer satisfaction.<br />

Get the best home entertainment setup with Kole Digital<br />
Entertainment is a great<br />
escape from everyday life,<br />
and great movies can improve<br />
one’s mood. A good<br />
home entertainment system<br />
is a wise investment<br />
that contributes to the<br />
quality of one’s life, and<br />
that of his or her family.<br />
And no one knows that<br />
better than Kole Digital,<br />
the No. 1 place in Chicago<br />
for award-winning<br />
home theaters. With an eye<br />
for visual entertainment<br />
and a passion for creativity,<br />
owner Rob Kole and<br />
his team turn spaces into<br />
spectacular movie theaters<br />
and multi-purpose media<br />
rooms.<br />
With a staff of seasoned<br />
CAD designers and engineers,<br />
they create stunning<br />
rooms that look and sound<br />
unbelievable. Rob has a<br />
four-year degree in sound<br />
engineering, design and<br />
acoustics, plus extensive<br />
experience in sound and<br />
lighting for live shows.<br />
Cut to the present day,<br />
and he is now scaling his<br />
knowledge and skills from<br />
large-scale entertainment<br />
venues to a select room in<br />
any home. If the premise<br />
sounds interesting, visit<br />
their design center on Lincoln<br />
Highway in Frankfort<br />
to see more.<br />
The showroom’s exterior<br />
is deceiving. An outdoor<br />
observer has no idea how<br />
big the place is. When one<br />
enters, he or she is greeted<br />
by a friendly staff who<br />
takes the customer on a<br />
tour of the 13,000-squarefoot<br />
facility.<br />
Customers can experience<br />
two fully automated<br />
smart homes, a lighting<br />
studio, several gourmet<br />
kitchens and audio demonstration<br />
rooms, and five<br />
spectacular home theaters.<br />
Each theater has a different<br />
theme, from the futuristic<br />
Galaxy, to the art deco<br />
Paradise, to the gentlemen’s<br />
club-inspired Majestic.<br />
The grand finale is a<br />
two-story Chicago Theater<br />
replica, complete with a<br />
balcony.<br />
Each is exquisitely<br />
crafted with high-quality<br />
materials, like stone columns,<br />
acoustic treatment,<br />
custom glass and metalwork.<br />
There are lighting<br />
options everywhere, and<br />
each ceiling is unique —<br />
one has a beautiful fiber<br />
optic starfield. It’s like a<br />
Disneyland for adults.<br />
The second floor has a<br />
furniture showroom with<br />
more than 50 theater chairs<br />
from which to choose, plus<br />
several sectionals and<br />
credenzas. Then, tour the<br />
offices, where the CAD<br />
designers work on plans<br />
for several basements and<br />
their 410th theater. Also,<br />
see where the finishes are<br />
selected — carpet, fabric,<br />
tile, paint, custom cabinetry<br />
and more.<br />
It does not stop there.<br />
Kole Digital started 18<br />
years ago out of Rob’s<br />
own home in Homer Glen,<br />
and they were the first in<br />
the area to specialize in<br />
smart homes that feature<br />
lighting control, climate,<br />
motorized window treatments<br />
and more.<br />
Today, they offer every<br />
conceivable home control<br />
product. From an iPad,<br />
customers can view cameras,<br />
unlock a door, arm<br />
a security system, select a<br />
Pandora station and control<br />
the volume in each<br />
room of the house. They<br />
even have an outdoor<br />
kitchen display, complete<br />
with an all-weather TV,<br />
planter and rock speakers.<br />
The space is always<br />
changing. In the last few<br />
months, a new interactive<br />
space was added, so customers<br />
can audition the<br />
various control systems,<br />
like Crestron, Vantage,<br />
Control 4 and RTI. And<br />
if customers are lucky,<br />
they can get a sneak behind<br />
the scenes at Kole’s<br />
new teaching labs, where<br />
they train what must be<br />
the most talented installers<br />
and programmers in their<br />
field.<br />
Meet with Rob, and customers<br />
will see that his excitement<br />
is infectious. He<br />
has a passion for what he<br />
does, and has his hands in<br />
every design (they have 54<br />
current projects and five<br />
basements under construction).<br />
He will also tell you that<br />
no job is too small.<br />
“Some people walk<br />
in, purchase a Sony, LG<br />
or Samsung TV, select a<br />
credenza, speakers and<br />
receiver all controlled by<br />
a Universal remote, and<br />
schedule installation one<br />
day next week.”<br />
Others contact them<br />
when they are getting<br />
ready to build their home.<br />
“This is the best time to<br />
bring in your house plans,<br />
before you are too far<br />
along.”<br />
