Tom, Andrea and their team incredibly fantastic kitchen and Bath design studio!
As the CEO of Leicht USA, It's a pleasure working with them. I was not surprised that they took the lead, and their project Bud's Place was selected for the 2020 Architect + Kitchen book. Great achievement.
I first met Tom and Andrea, the owners, about nine years ago when looking for someone to represent Leicht in Austin. Tom's work caught my eye, as not only he's a fantastic designer, he also started his career as a cabinetmaker. I was more than pleased and vowed to let him represent us in Austin.

My experience was non-plus. The cabinetry is no higher quality than Ikea. It has nicer storage systems inside, but the outer look and quality is lacking. In addition, I had a lot of difficulty getting the correct cabinetry. My order took almost a year to get completed since it was either ordered incorrectly or shipped wrongly. There was always a pass the buck going on. My designer says he will never use this company again.

I had my 21st birthday dinner at The Arte European Kitchens last Sunday and I must say it was phenomenal. The food was divine and so was the ambiance. The service was also great, they were able to accommodate my party and I to a smaller table since some people didn't go. My boyfriend brought the cake and we handed it to them. When it was time to bring it out they decorated the plate they had placed it on beautifully. I'll definitely be coming back.

Offers kitchen cabinets imported from Germany. Sleek, modern, high gloss look that look wonderful in modern/contemporary kitchens. The cabinets are not custom and your design may need to be modified to accommodate their standard sizes. You may need to select different appliances to fit their spaces though Miele will work (as they partner with them). The lead time for deliveries are quite long 10-14 weeks with possible delays during the European summer. Given the drawbacks my wife and I decided not to go with them for a kitchen renovation, but they were still given strong consideration.
