“We have been very happy with the cooperation with SLIMDESIGN. They truly operate as being part of the team. They have helped us with a wide range of activities: Our product strategy, ideation, design, and engineering. Their working cosmetic prototypes worked very well and their construction & design is really impressive. When we introduced them to upper management, they were extremely pleased with the “impressive presence” of the appliance. All in all a great team to work with, one that you can trust to deliver high quality, on time!”
