Dream Kitchens is a kitchen and bathroom design-and-remodeling firm based in Nashua, New Hampshire, offering kitchen design, bathroom design and home remodeling. The company has built a local reputation for custom cabinetry and design-led renovations, with its designers' work featured repeatedly in New Hampshire Home Magazine and New Hampshire Magazine going back to 2013. The bulk of the written record — dozens of reviews on Houzz, Angi, HomeAdvisor and Google running from 2017 to 2025 — centers on individual designers by name. Clients working with Sabrina, Jackie Smith, Don Smith, Nina Hackel and Gemma describe attentive, responsive collaboration on full kitchen and bathroom remodels, with particular praise for custom cabinetry, cohesive layouts and close communication from start to finish. A 2018 magazine feature described a river-view kitchen Nina Hackel designed with custom cherry cabinetry and a granite-and-river-rock island, and a 2013 piece listed the firm's Nashua contact information. The record also carries a pricing and tone concern. In two 2024 Reddit posts, one homeowner described a full kitchen renovation quote of $80,000 to $100,000 and said they came away feeling the firm didn't want the job at their budget, while another called the company expensive and, in its dealings with vendors, entitled. A separate, undated complaint posted online described a billing dispute with the business over a material charge. On the review platforms themselves, a 2025 review said a follow-up repair took an extra two weeks with no check-in from the designer, and a 2024 review said more collaboration during the design process would have been welcome. For a homeowner planning a high-end, design-led kitchen or bathroom remodel and prepared for a premium price point, the design-side track record is strong and consistent across platforms. Anyone price-sensitive should get a detailed, itemized quote up front and ask how post-installation follow-up and billing questions are handled.
“Dream kitchens is high as hell and I can tell you they think they’re the elite of Nh, and they act like it. When they want a favor from their vendors they act like they’re single-handedly keeping them in business and everyone should worship the ground they walk on. I’d imagine would could”
“Hold on to your seat. We had Dream Kitchen come out and give us a quote for a total kitchen renovation. New cabinets, floors, appliances. The works. They estimated $80,000-$100,000. We figured they just didn’t want to work with us.”

Love the bathroom now but had to have contractor come back to fix a few things and that took an additional 2 weeks before he responded back and made it over. Dissapointed that our designer never called to ask how things were going or if we had any problems.
We have a nearly completed kitchen from dream kitchens. All of the materials are amazing, the drawers are nice and big and I can definitely fit a lot into them. We love our kitchen aid lift. Our countertops are also very nice. I did think there would be more collaboration between the designer and the contractor who we hired through dream kitchens. Our contractor didn’t know we were installing a pot filler, he also didn’t know that the electrical outlets were also under cabinet lighting. The pot filler was installed however the under cabinet lighting which cost 1500 was not wired. The contractor had said multiple times he would come address the issue but I had to reach out to dream kitchens frequently to get a response from the contractor. In order to have working under cabinet lighting now they would have ti cut into the back splash, which was very expensive with tile that may no longer be in stock. The contractor has yet to come finish a few other small things on the exterior of our house. One of my biggest frustrations is that the contractor says he didn’t know about the under cabinet lighting while dream kitchens says the told him about it. At the beginning of the process the designer also said they would be out at our house checking on our renovation, I saw the designer once at our house. I wonder if they checked in more frequently at our house if we would have had our lighting. It is upsetting because we spent over 100k on our kitchen and I would like to have everything we had planned.
Excellent top quality craftsmanship!!!
Gemma designed our gas fireplace conversion with the utmost precision planning! With much help from assistant Kim, they kept us informed during this custom cabinet ordering and installation process. I had many special requests for my entertainment system including adjustable Shelving, Fan Ventilation and Wiring all accomplished as requested! I would hope that Master Carpenter Scott is still with you as he did an outstanding installation! I'm very picky about details and he went above and beyond my expectations! We are very happy with the final results so do not hesitate to hire Dream Kitchens for all your custom cabinet work! Please review my pictures attached BEFORE and AFTER!!!!!
Excellent, friendly and very helpful.
