Design Station

I’ve used DS 5x so far to have t-​shirts and sweaters printed for my gym. Aaron’s a nice guy, the prices are really unbeatable, and it’s a super easy transaction. What’s not to love.

These guys are awesome ! They helped me get my Tshirts done for my event. They were on time and did a great job !!

Aaron was great in helping me get two different designs together. I needed his assistance not only with the t-​shirts but in re designing the graphics. He made everything really simple and delivered directly to my business is a very timely fashion. Always prompt with email responses. I couldn’t be happier with my shirts! Thank you Aaron!!!

I have dealt with the guys at Design Station on two occasions & have always had a good time dealing with them.
They have always been prompt with responses & help immediately if there are any issues.
The quality of the shirts are great!
I highly recommend them to any one and will use them when I need my next batch of shirts!

I wish I read the reviews before I decided to hire them for my company t-​shirts. I really wanted to hire someone local to support the community. It took over a month from the deadline we agreed to before I received my shirts. The first batch of shirts the colors where off. The second batch of shirts they obviously didn’t read the email I sent regarding changing the color of shirts from red to white so maybe the color will pop more. Nope still received red shirts. Im not sure how the business stays in business but I do no I will never hire them again. If I was you I would stay far far away. They will tell you anything to get your business. You have been warned!

I’ve been using Design Station for 3 years now to print post cards for a well-​known concert venue (Knitting Factory). They have been super reliable as we need to print post cards every month. Fast too! They even deliver by hand and you can text them or email them for a status. This communication has been very important to us. Prices are excellent!

I decided to get a rush order of business cards printed up and I was very pleased with the results. I had designed the cards myself and sent over the appropriate files via email, the turn around time was 24 hours and i was very happy with the results.

What an awesome and totally great experience I have had each time dealing with Design Station’s owner Aaron — he is exceptionally kind and willing to listen to each suggestion, making changes each time I requested even the smallest detail be changed. The shirts he has produced are of the highest quality and again, the attention to detail is obvious. What I most appreciate is that he has taken the time to really get the job done quickly when I needed him too. I am so impressed with his efficiency and ability to turn an order around quickly (in a day or two). I am teacher and a LEGO Robotics Coach. Aaron took the time to enlarge our team’s design and make the shirts incredibly exciting looking for the 4^th and 5^th Graders on the team. I did not ask him to do this, he asked me if I thought the image should be bigger — and it honestly made a huge difference in terms of making an impression at our recent competition. Thank you Aaron — for all of the efforts you’ve made both for D.O.T.S. C.O.N.F.U.S.E. M.I.N.D.S. (the band I am in that Aaron has made shirts for on a few occasions — everyone from the band members to the audience members, our family and friends — have L.O.V.E.D. the shirts) and for the PS 261 LEGO Robotics Team… you really have made a difference and I can’t tell you how much I appreciate you and your team.

Dan A. you are totally on point here. They were so laid back that they never got the job done. I can’t believe these peeps are even open for business still. Definitely don’t use them if you want a job done. It’s just not gonna happen so save yourself some time and frustration and go someplace else.

Design Station utterly failed me this week. We were deadly clear about our deadline and were assured they would deliver on time. They didn’t deliver and just ignored emails and phone calls. A week later and there still is no response from them. Never received goods, never received explanation.
DO NOT USE THEM!

Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me.
My first experience Design Station came when an NBC program offered to feature by business in a ten minute segment on interior design. It was last minute so I needed custom t-​shirts in a pinch. They said no problem but was a problem – when I called to pick-​up they gave me an excuse and said they wouldn’t be ready. After much stress, pleading and cajoling they did provide the shirts in time, though the lettering was half the size specified.
I like to stay local so I tried them for some business cards. I supplied the graphics and they came out fine but their shop was closed when my minion arrived at the appointed time, necessitating a second trip.
I emailed to reorder a few months later but got no reply so I called two days later. The schmuck who answered the phone couldn’t locate the file.
«How am I supposed to know where it is?» he asked me.
To my civil bit firm reply he retorted «You sound angry, how’s that working for you?», purloining the line from a ten year old movie (Fight Club /​1999). He repeated it lest I not realize how clever he was. «You have a brain, why don’t you use it?» he also asked me, again repeating himself.
Yes, I’m stupid because you can’t find my file.
I don’t care for the term «hipster». I’m close with a couple immensely talented and ambitious persons who superficially meet the scrufty criteria. But Design Studio embodies every negative stereotype the term conjures – smug slacker arrogance without the talent to back it up, a dearth of organizational skills and questionable hygiene.
Don’t waste your time with these dysfunctional f*ck-ups.
