We purchased counter tops between Trend and Lowes. The countertops were the wrong size and the whole time trying to resolve this issue has been a blame game between Trend and Lowes. Trend even sent their own rep to measure one piece and it did not fit. Professionalism, accountability and responsibility are not traits of either Trend or Lowes. I will NEVER recommend nor purchase any other products from here. By the way, this has been an ongoing issue from now, April since last Oct. Customer Service does not exist with either of these companies.

Lowering the rating because it's been 4 months and neither Home Depot nor Trend have tried to resolve this issue. While it bothers me to write the review as the owners are lovely people, I have to rate the installation experience I've had now for my experience owning a home with two kitchens. Last year it took two installation appointments to get the simple L shaped kitchen counters correct. The first time was two men and virtually the whole day....to no avail and the counter they installed on the kitchen desk was attached with one screw; so it fell apart. That time they were here before one of

Counter top did not cover cabinet on one side and they covered it up with a piece of laminate tile piece so the gap wouldn't shoe from the top of the counter, but when you looked from the side you could still see the gap. It also did not cover the top of the cabinet on the pass through to the dinning room.

Scheduling the logistics with regards to the delivery of them was really poor & so was the communication as well. I ordered the laminate countertop at Home Depot they only had a simple sink cutout for a Kohler drop in sink to do & provided the sink along w/measurements on my order. When I went to install the sink in the countertop at my home I come to find out that my sink 1/2 - 3/4" too wide around the perimeter causing my sink to only rest on 1/8" support so I am now struggling to find an effective workaround since they are installed. Support braces from under sink using 1x2's. Beware they don

Countertop quality seems good overall. However, installation and the associated craftsmanship, service and attention to detail are what I would expect from a startup business with unskilled labor. Home Depot in the St. Louis area contracts with Trend Manufacturing; buying countertops through HD results in Trend building and installing them. I recommend staying away and taking your business to a dedicated countertop shop with sales, service and installation under one ownership group.
