We absolutely love our plantation shutters! The whole experience was stress free and seamless. The communication was great, from the time we walked into the showroom, had a quote done and had them fitted. Zac did a fantastic job fitting them. We definitely recommend using Kresta! Show details

Very happy with my recent blinds purchase. Sonya the consultant did an excellent job with the design and recommendations. The follow up appointment was great and reassuring that they did a second measure before proceeding to manufacturing the blinds. The timeline to getting it installed was as advertised at the time of quote. Very happy to recommend to others Show details
Kresta representative Sonya was amazing and thorough professional. She is really passionate and dedicated towards her work. she had done thorough measurements for blind and curtains and always provided prompt clarifications & assistance whenever needed. Zac did the installation and he was thorough professional. We would recommend Kresta to friends and relatives. Thank you, Chandrima Show details
Consultant Sonya is very knowledgeable, personable and professional. We consulted previously with Sonya for our old house. This time and last, both terrific outcomes, thanks to her advice. Zack, the installer also did a terrific job! It was a pleasure having you both in our home. Thank you! Show details

Absolute nightmare! – We placed an order for our blinds later Nov 2022. We were promised that the blinds will take approx 6 weeks including arrival and installation. The sales rep came to out house twice to measure and the installer another time to ensure that measurements were right. Installer said that certain blinders were incorrect and that the rep missed a blind.… Read more
They charged us for the blind despite the fact that nothing was missed.
Blinds were initially installed and we noticed that our teenage daughters room (Street facing) in level 1 is missing a roller blind and my mothers (Street facing) ground floor is missing a blind too.
The installer said that he will advise the sales rep and we ended up dealing with the state general manager who has absolutely no idea about about anything in Kresta.
We also noticed that we all our blinds in level 1 were installed inside the window frames whereas we had requested for them to be installed in the outside frames to avoid sunlight as I am a shift worker and do not like a room filled with light when I sleep during the day.
The sales rep attended again and said that she will rectify all issues urgently. It has now been 4 months and I received a call today to pay more dollars for a blind that I have already paid for and do not require. The warehouse officer did not know anything about the 2 remaining blinds, I called her several times during the past month and sent several text messages and she finally sent me a short message saying "I believe the rep or warehouse officer have been speaking with you".
Our 15 year daughter has been sleeping in our bedroom on the ground since December because her bedroom is street facing and there are a lot of tradies working opposite our house and on the sides. Kresta have failed to deliver our order time and time over again.
The state manager, sales rep and the warehouse officer are all very confused and cant seem to get this small order right, 4 months and they still haven't figured out. We are currently in the process of going to consumer affairs Victoria and taking legal action for the inconvenience and heartache caused to us, we are also thinking of dragging Kresta to the media and not going to hesitate a bit.
Don't buy from there! – I had nothing but problems when I purchased Kresta curtains about 3 years ago ( it was well before Covid). Kresta messed up in a few ways, thus the curtains that Krests delivered to me were not what I ordered, and as replacements were going to take weeks to get made and delivered to me I had to cancel the order. Then Kresta refused to refund my… Read more
money; Kresta said that they weren't legally obliged to give me a refund. However, I knew that Kresta was legally in the wrong, so I contacted Fair Trading/Consumer Affairs and I eventually got my money back.

Appalling customer service and sub standard faulty products – Customer Service and response time is absolutely appalling. The quality of the product is not close to what i expected from this brand and the follow up support, when a blind has fallen off our wall, is non-existent. Constant excuses through the whole process from Kresta that just dont stack up. Turmover of staff is very telling of their internal… Read more
issues. They are showing no creativity or service offering to get the repair completed and I am so disappointed. These blinds cost a lot of money.
Sorry to hear you are not happy with the Kresta service.… Read more

Really happy with the service, the design consultation with Sonya and the installation with Jason. The curtains were affordable and good quality, with a good range of materials to choose from.
Great customer service and experience working with Sonya, Jay and Rath from Kresta. Thank you all for helping us find and install the right curtains and blinds for our new home. Some minor damage to our wall and window frame during installation hence the 4 star review. Overall a good experience and would recommend.

Very happy – I got my roller blinds installed by Kresta, replacing old ones. My consultation was thorough and I was given styling suggestions and a full run through of the products.

I am very happy with the look of the blinds and they are great quality, very modern and have finished the room off perfectly.

Seamless quote and installation – Quote details and double checking very efficient. However 3 months for final installation is, in my opinion a very long time. Would also like a slight discount for recommending you company to my friends. Show details
Stunning! – Thank you Sonya for your help and guidance selecting curtins and blinds for our house. Kresta were helpful thourought the processand the final result is fabulous. This is the second time I've used Kresta for curtains and blinds and I wouldn't go anywhere else. Show details
Our best supplier – From the beginning to the day the project completed, we had more or less about 300 different suppliers contributed to what we achieved today, the Cresta team is one of the best and best, not only about the products, the price, most importantly the best service we ever received from the first contact of sales, and to the last day of installation.… Read more

Great service and install – Fantastic service. Sonja was courteous and knowledgeable of the products, helped with our choice of design. The installation by Luke was seamless, clean and professional. Show details
Great customer service – My husband and I have been shopping around for shutters and Sonya Oberstar came to give us a quote. Of all quotes we had she best understood our needs and was by far the easiest to communicate with. She went out of her way to accomodate our needs and ensure that the product we have order suits our purposes. We are very grateful to Sonya for her help and customer service. Show details
Great service and product – I had some blinds and curtains installed. Service from Jorge was efficient and professional. Very happy with the blinds and service, from initial measure and quote through to installation. Show details
Delivered exactly what I asked for – Jorge from Kresta came and measured our window and listened to exactly how I wanted the blinds to look when up or down. Jason installed it and although he said it is common for the blind to be installed in the timber head of the frame, he saw Jorge’s note about putting it on top of the frame as I requested. Perfect! Show details
A great choice! – I contacted kresta and was visited by Jorge who measured and gave lots of great advice about what we should consider. He was helpful and easy to contact throughout the whole process. I would definitely recommend
