AI Review Summary Based on 74 reviews

Customer experiences with Brugman are sharply divided, with many praising excellent service and others reporting severe failures. Positive reviews frequently highlight exceptional customer service, with staff like Pieter, Ester, Marco, Linda, and Willem Meurs noted for being helpful, professional, and providing good design advice. Delivery and installation are often described as fast, efficient, and flawless when projects go well, and the company is commended for handling everything from design to installation under one roof. The after-sales service and responsiveness for defect resolution, such as promptly replacing faulty shower parts, are also viewed very positively. However, a significant number of customers report extremely negative experiences involving major project delays, sometimes lasting months, with poor communication and unresponsive customer service. Many complaints cite incompetent or unprofessional contractors, installation errors, and incorrect deliveries that are not resolved. There are serious allegations of disrespectful or discriminatory treatment by some staff, and customers feel misled by sales tactics, including hidden costs and unhonored cancellation policies. Overall satisfaction is highly dependent on whether the project proceeds smoothly or encounters the widespread issues of mismanagement, leading to extreme frustration and financial loss for many.

Do not trust Brugman

Do not trust BrugmanI visited Brugman Capelle to plan my bathroom After planning the sales advisor told me that I had a 2-week cancelation free of charge and asked me to sign some papers And when after only 5 days I asked to cancel the order they asked me to pay 950Euro When I called them the store manager Joyce said Firstly you need to read what you are signing and then the sales advisor does not have the authority to give you such an option As a person who cannot read Dutch I had to trust the sales advisor and unfortunately this caused me to pay the cancelling fine Order number 2 0002 112289

Good advice No service

This company gives you a good advice when you are in the process of buying But when it comes to service when something shows up they are very well trained to give you none helpful answers Make a picture of the problem in this case a scratch in the induction heating We have looked at it and compared it to our own photos It was not seen on our photo so no guarantee Try to use your own insurance to solve this My advice to all of you shop at Brugman for comparison with the competitors but NEVER buy at Brugman If you have a problem they will NOT cooperate with you and you will get frustrated Update Juli 1st I would like to respond to the comments of Brugman shown below but this seems not possible Therefore this update Nothing has happened so far No respond from the supplier - in this case Etna - Yet Only advice from Brugman so far contact your insurance for a solution I stick to my recommendation don t buy at Brugman You will be and stay disappointed when something shows up

Buyer Beware

Buyer Beware The store in Wateringen does not stand behind their product once you ve signed the contract and committed to the purchase I have had problems with the 35K kitchen I purchased from them After getting nothing resolved with the gentleman Ray who designed our kitchen I asked to speak to the store manager Tamara I was put through to her and after voicing my complaints Tamara responded that I should take it up with the service department because if you go to Albert Heijn local supermarket you don t complain to the cashier So the store manager equates purchasing a 35 000 00 kitchen with buying groceries at the supermarket My complaints issues haven t been resolved yet but when if they do there will be a follow up to my review In the meantime BUYER BEWARE

multiple mistakes and long waiting times

The kitchen was designed not taking into account all the measurements and it was too large for the space The mechanic had to make adjustment on spot to make it functional To correct the measurement mistakes huuuge waiting time 7 weeks just to replace a side panel and a countertop Costumer service just say they can t do anything because it s up to the supplier So you pay full ammount upfront at the delivery and then wait months to get the product you payed for On top of that after the 7 weeks they bring another piece that is the wrong size Costumer service again not helpful even rude -called to make an appointment and just hung up on me while pointing out that it is unacceptable to wait another 4 weeks just to get an appointment for mistakes they have made Overall a very stressful experience

Low quality house brand appliances

We bought bathroom from Brugman 2 years ago The service and installation were good but not the house brand bathroom furniture and appliances First bathtub drain plug was leaking-the sealing rubber was replaced Then shower door stooped closing in about 1 month after installation- that was fixed for free after some correspondence Then tops of drawers under the sink went loose because these tops are always wet due to the sink design They came and glue them but now they are loose again so we put sticky tape over them Now mirrors are getting oxidized because they are not special bathroom mirrors This they don t wanna fix they just give us 20 discount to buy new ones So you get this kind of stuff for around 20K all together Next time we just go to Ikea Update from Feb 21 2025 After some correspondence it was concluded that our bathroom has extreme environment for Brugman house brand furniture and mirrors e g high humidity Also mirrors from Brugman house brand can t be cleaned by Glassex cleaning agent for glass and mirrors instead I guess you should use morning dew or tears of a unicorn No refund no warranty

got stuck on a contract without knowing what I buy online planner useless

at the showroom I signed to buy some kitchen because of a nice 40 discount but now I cant find online the catalogue prices on which that would be based on The advisors seemed more interested in my signature for a discount deal than offering and advising me first about what exactly they offer Too bad I already signed Now I wait for the meeting to define the kitchen but cant even plan something online because the program doesnt run on my browser computer Maybe some day the deal turns out ok but in the meantime it feels bad

Ever had to deal with Brugman s service deptt

Be aware that Brugman says that its shower-head can be NOT as strong as your garden hose I e a hose may withstand the supply-water pressure if you were to pinch it or close the spray nozzle with tap at its supply end remaining open but in a similar situation Brugman s head shower may very likely leak at its joints or even the metal wall may rupture If you are ever in a situation to seek Brugman s service-deptt help they will presume upfront that you are lying or concealing facts in reporting the problem and out there to extract an advantage from them Also remember that Brugman s shower heads are not repairable and they very proudly would say that any problem occurring to you after the lapse of 3 year guarantee you should spend money in replacing the item at its full listed price Brugman s motto is that their products are sans any problems and to make a case they will even go against the basics of science as they informed me in a written reply that supposedly blocked shower holes would cause pressure inside it to become higher than the water supply pressure may god give peace to the great soul of Bernoulli
