A style I resonate with

I have started following MINDTHEGAP after reading about them in a Romanian magazine. I get excited every time they come up with a new collection and I feel their style resonates with mine.

Excellent

Excellent. We ordered four lamps and four lampshades which are all fabulous. Sadly one of the shades was damaged in transit, but a replacement was sent immediately. Great customer service.

Excellent…

This was our third picture from MTG and, as with the others we are delighted with the quality of the product and the service and delivery. Our only issue is that MTG do not have a wider range of items to go with the excellent ones they do have

Misleading photos and poor customer service

I bought the Shibui wallpaper in copper. When I saw it on the wall I thought my decorator had made a mistake - there a section in a vertical line where it is very mismatched, both tonally and in alignment. It turns out that this is the actual pattern in the middle of the third roll (it's a 3 roll set).

I would never have bought it if I knew it looked so wrong, and wondered how I had missed this. When I checked the promotional image there is a dressing gown hung all the way down that area of wallpaper so you can't see the offending section (Google it). I can only assume that was deliberate. No other online image shows this problematic area so I only had the one photo to go off prior to purchase.

I contacted the company through my supplier and Mind The Gap keep saying that the second roll looks like it has been hung incorrectly and offered to send out a new second roll. It's absolutely infuriating as I've sent multiple pictures and it's abundantly clear it's hung correctly. The problem is in the middle of the third panel so refitting the second panel would make no difference to anything.

So in summary, I feel that the promotional material is misleading and I'm just being fobbed off. I'd never use this company again as their customer services is as bad as its wallpaper.

Dear customer, we are really sorry for the unpleasant situation that made you have this totally wrong impression about our products and customer service. But we have to mention here that we have explained by email several times that you had a misunderstanding regarding our SHIBUI Copper wallpaper. It is clearly a problem of installation since our wallpaper strips match correctly and we have no issues regarding the pattern repeating. Our Customer Service team and our reseller have explained to you that your installation was done wrong by not respecting completely our installation guide. More than that, as a good will we have offered you a replacement strip to solve the problem. As you have already been told, our SHIBUI Copper is among the best sellers wallpaper sold in hundreds of copies around the world without any complaints. There is no misleading promos or images, the dressing in our lifestyle image is placed just for design purpose. Once again, we are really sorry about the situation, but the quality of the installation or other problems encountered due the installation it is not our responsibility.

Aristocracy wallpaper shrunk.

Aristocracy wallpaper shrunk.
I ordered 1 roll of wallpaper for my customer, in order to to use in a frame behind the bed, as a feature wallpaper (focal point).
I ordered a sample, but it was too small to see the full selection of colours within it.
I then had to guess what the other shades were in order to co-ordinate my customers room.
It arrived sooner than I expected.
Whilst hanging it, it felt strong and at that stage I was happy. All the seams were perfectly aligned.
I returned to my customers house the next day to carry on the decorating and discovered that numerous seams had shrunk, leaving very obvious white gaps (the background paper was charcoal black).
I was very disappointed and frustrated at the finished effect. As I had already hung the wallpaper, I couldn’t remove it again and at over £100 felt annoyed.
I needed to carry on with my customers project, so I had no choice but to use the damage limitation attitude.
I went to an art shop and purchased some soft willow charcoal and the next day proceeded to draw don’t all the seams and rub the charcoal into the seams, hoping my customer wouldn’t notice.
Considering the cost of the paper, I am shocked That I was forced to do this in order to rectify the situation.
I run a home refurbishment service which I have owned for over 20 yrs. I am both a qualified decorator and interior designer. Therefore hanging wallpaper is a task I carry out frequently.
See my website girlaboutthehousehouzz and
girlaboutthehouse.com
When I expressed my disappointment with the wallpaper.The reply was very unsatisfactory and in fact inferred that I didn’t know what I was doing !
I was offered another roll if I wanted one and if I wanted to re hang it.
This was unsatisfactory for me, I had already paid for 1 roll and could not take the paper off again without incurring an extra cost to the customer or absorb the cost myself for time spent stripping the wall and rehanging the paper. I also needed to move on with the project and didn’t have the luxury of time.
Therefore, I believe the product is sub standard, not worth the cost incurred AND customer service leaves a lot to be desired.

Dear customer, we do feel really sorry for the situation mentioned here. But as you have already been told by our Customer Service team, once you proceed with the installation, you responsibility is fully yours. We can't control any situations or conditions on the site since we are not doing the installation. We would really love to help you anyway to solve the situation and as gesture of good will, we have considered to offer you for free another roll of wallpaper to solve your customer's issue. Our goal is to have only happy customers and to give them our support in order to get the best results with our wallpapers. The wallpaper has nothing wrong, there can be several issues with the walls, room temperature, moist conditions and all other possible situations mentioned in our Wallpaper Installation Guide. We also recommend to use a liner on the walls prior installing our wallpapers in order to have the best results. Once again, we are really sorry for the whole situation, but next time respecting the Installation Guide might bring you some better exeperience for any wallpaper brand.
