I bought a beautiful rug online on the website for my living room - didn't take much time looking, it was an immediate fit. They had so many options for both traditional and contemporary styles and I was pleased to see they had a modern style that was perfect for what I was looking for. I received the rug within the week and it arrived looking absolutely gorgeous - it fit my living room furniture and measurements perfectly! I am so happy with the quality of the product and the customer service as well as ease of the purchase. Will definitely be purchasing from Koko again for some of my other rooms!

I have been using Koko Bodakian & Sons for about 30 years to clean and repair my rugs. They do top notch work and the staff is always a pleasure to work with. I've moved to three different towns but I still bring my rugs back to Winchester.

Have been a long time customer of Koko Bodakian rug cleaning services. The reason I chose them is due to their commitment to exceptional customer service. Muhamed and is team go above and beyond to provide personal customer service to address their customers' rug cleaning needs to guarantee 100% customer satisfaction. A lot of businesses talk about excellent customer service and do not deliver, while Koko Bodakian service actually emulates exceptional service in all areas. Sincerely, Liz Warrick

My mother dropped a rug off for cleaning in July and they lost her rug. 5 months later and noone has contacted her with an update and they are not doing anything to compensate her. Unbelievable.

What superb service.! Mr Mohammed arranged for my mother's rug to be picked up. They cleaned, repaired, wrapped and sent the rug to me in another state. The rug is perfect. I am thrilled.
