Report
I have to echo the sentiments of the other negative reviewer. My experience was equally devastating. I did not feel listened to at all. Most of Heidi's suggestions ran counter to my stated taste and design goals. Further, Heidi was incredibly unprofessional and difficult to work with, and in the end, I felt my money was wasted with nothing to show for it. I would not recommend her to anyone.

Report
My experience with Heidi Pribell Interiors was devastating. I was punished financially for changing my mind on the pieces I was being shown. The pieces were often not to my taste, hence my ambivalence. I did not feel listened to. In the end, I lost half my budget just on Heidi's fees, and ended up with a lousy, ugly reclaimed wood desk.
