  We purchased cambria countertops and they were installes August of ******************************************************************** multiple places leaving gaps and not level. Cambria was notified and they said they would callback and they have not done so 2 weeks later. More shims fell out again today. I have emailed and called with no response. We are going to have someone else come and do a full assessment on the situation. They can pay for that too!

  I had Cambria countertops installed in June 2023. Eight months later in February 2024 I discovered a crack by the sink. After talking to Cambria I was told there is nothing they can do. Some time later I received an email to call customer service and they would have someone come out to look at it -until they realized I didnt live within a certain area. So again they were doing nothing. I had quartz countertops at my previous home for 15 years and they were in excellent condition when it sold. Ive had Cambria for 8 months and it has cracked in an area that gets little use. I cant even imagine what else will happen in five years! I would never recommend this company based on the quality of the product. They have beautiful designs but the quality is lacking.

  We woke up 2 weeks ago to a 10" crack in our Cambria quartz kitchen island (which was installed 4 years ago). They sent out a technician to 'repair' it, as they said a crack is never a manufacturing issue and so would not replace it - "you the owner will still be able to see the crack since you know where it is, anyone visiting your home will not be able to see the repair" was what I was told. I attach before and after photos - it does not look any better and is not an acceptable repair in our opinion.
  
  We, in good faith, paid @ $17-18k to install over 225 sq ft of Cambria quartz in our kitchen. We chose Cambria after much research and settled on this company for it's quartz designs and lifetime warranty (which in our opinion is false advertising as they don't cover anything except repairing chips and supposedly repairing cracks).
  
  Customer care called us yesterday after the repair to say that they were not going to do anything else and basically that they had made the decision to not consider replacing it.

   I am rejecting this response because: their lifetime warranty on their quartz countertops is false advertising as the company, time and time again, stated that they never have any manufacturing defects/ issues.

  Someone from Cambria did call me to reiterate that they would not be replacing the countertop since it, in their opinion was not a manufacturing issue (as the company never has any manufacturing issues!), nor an installation issue, but that they would send another technician out (when I asked if he thought that the technician would be able to make it look any better the response was no), so I declined the offer (originally they had sent out a 17 year veteran technician). Professional responses to a post I made on houzz.com thought that it was an installation or manufacturing issue.

  When asked about the response from customer service that' I as the customer would still know where the 9" crack was, but that visitors to the home would not know it was there', I was told that the person had been counselled not to say that in the future....

  I asked again what exactly the lifetime warranty covered, and again was told manufacturing issues (which I have been told now by 5 employees at Cambria that they don't ever have manufacturing issues), my question to him was 'well if you don't ever have manufacturing issues, then what exactly does the lifetime warranty cover? - I just got silence as a response.

  I am disappointed that the company did not 'do the right thing'. We spent close to $18k on their product and it turns out that they refuse to acknowledge any possibility of a manufacturing issue, so their lifetime warranty is worthless. Buyer beware!

  We are sorry your countertop has been damaged and your dissatisfaction with our findings and position on this matter. Our Regional Business Manager has reviewed the situation and spoken with you recently addressing your concerns. As part of his review, he confirmed there were no concerns with the integrity of the product or the installation that would contribute to the product being damaged.

  Cambria is a very durable quartz product, however it can be damaged. We do not know the cause of the crack to your countertop. Damage such as this can occur when the product is exposed to force, pressure, sudden or rapid change in temperature, or a combination of these items.

  Your kitchen has been installed since September 2019 and we respect the feedback you have received from others on various platforms. However, we want to emphasize that their opinions are speculative and do not accurately reflect the specific circumstances of your situation. This crack is not the result of the manufacturing of the product. As such, the damage to your countertop is not a warrantable item.

  In review of our marketing we do not share your perspective that we are misleading in the promotion of our warranty. A crack is not a manufacturing defect; it is damage.

   Thank you for your feedback and it is unfortunate this has happened to your countertop. Our team is here and will be happy to continue to service you in the future.

  I had bought stone from Cambria for my kitchen and the stone on my island is bowed and sits a 1/4 inch off my cabinets. ****** sent a tech to my home and they did nothing to resolve the issue.

  ********** sent a salesman out, *****, to do a work order to replace my kitchen countertop. He told us that Cambria is the only quartz countertops that they will install because the quality is so good! But I am finding this hard to believe. I told him that because I live in an older house, I did not want a modern looking shiny countertop with manmade looking designs, rather I wanted a pattern that mimics marble as much as possible. It's so hard to tell what a large surface is going to look like when all you get to see is a 12X12" square sample piece to observe. I ended up going to NFM because they had an app that would give a visual of how it would look in a typical kitchen. And these patterns are large wavy, graphic patterns that look more like a ******* ****** canvas that something made in nature. It has no depth and looks crazy. It's very faddish and I want a classic look to my kitchen. This is NOT a look that I am going for and plan on challenging my contract

  I want to add that I wish to drop the complaint from Cambria's file due to fact that I did NOT have the correct information from whom (neighbor) showed me a damaged countertop and want to recant the complaint since it did NOT pertain to Cambria. It was a totally different company..

  I renovated my home in 2016. I used Cambria quartz for my countertops. I started noticing a few gray areas appearing in one section of my island but did nothing about it at the time due to the illness and subsequent death of my husband followed by the pandemic. Gradually these worsened but only in the one area. I called customer service who sent out someone to clean the area but there was no change. The company called me to say that there was nothing wrong with the quartz. I then called the supervisor, ******, who came out with another gentleman and they tried many different cleaning solutions, they agree it was a mystery and could make no improvements. I am being told that its not a problem with the quartz but some unknown and unexplainable chemical exposure which is clearly nonsensical. It was agreed that I had not used anything that could harm quartz and in any case any "product" would not just affect one area, however somehow they came to the conclusion that the responsibility is not with Cambria.Cambria quartz has a lifetime warranty. There is clearly a defect in this area of the quartz. I am a 72 year old widow, these countertops get very light use. I expected the company to do what is right and replace the faulty 4x6" piece of quartz

  Our Sympathies for the personal challenges you have endured the past few years.
  
  We appreciate the points you have provided and perspective on this matter. We have spoken to our colleagues whom you have interacted with and were at your home to review the concerns. They shared the various cleaning techniques that were performed in an attempt to remove what we were hoping was a challenging residue on your countertops. This was not successful which indicates something has damaged the countertop.
  
  We have reviewed the specific material used for your kitchen and have confirmed there are no concerns with the quality or integrity of the slabs. Furthermore, if there was a challenge with the material then it would not be isolated to one area on one countertop or become grey in appearance in a white product. As such, we do not agree with your comment that there is a defect in the Cambria product.
  
  Unfortunately, something has damaged your countertop. Should you ever have any future questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us.

   I am rejecting this response because:
  It is the same ridiculous argument as they gave before. The quartz is clearly defective and rather than accept responsibility they claim that very light use by 72year old widow has damaged the product. Nobody is able to suggest how I may have done this and frankly if their product was so delicate that I could have damaged it then they are guilty of false claims over the durability of their quartz.
