I shopped and shopped and shopped and finally found the dream ring at Karats. Knowledge, incredible selection and we needed to do financing because we were in a budget and the store provided that at 0%, which was great.
I hadn't seen a selection like this anywhere else in Kansas city. My final 3 rings were from the Tacori and Verragio collection. I ended up chosing the Tacori engagement ring after all.
Communication and delivery: it was promised for a 4 week delivery, it came in 3 weeks. Karats was fabulous in maintaining Communication and keeping us informed.
Diamond: I was given many options to choose from from lab diamond 💎 to natural diamond in all sizes for a round cut. I ended up with a lab diamond as it was not only bigger and better in quality but maintaining our budget. The store was very knowledgeable in explaining the difference and providing all answers to us. Without feeling pressured we were given all options and we made a well informed decision. Contrary to another store we visited that was simply focused on making the sale today vs taking the information approach which helped us come back to Karats rather than making the decision at that same moment.
Customer service: they truly treat you like family and want to be sure that you are comfortable with drinks and food options offered. They genuinely make every effort to appease us and focus on a great time and experience. We weren't just a means to an end, but a store that truly focused on building a relationship than just a sale, which most chain store we visited were like.
Overall rating : if I could, I would give 10/10 , choose them over chain establishments. Truly a family business that knows how to go above and beyond for their customers. I LOVE ❤️ MY RING !!
We shopped at my different stores in Kansas city for ban engagement ring and found the best value and shopping experience here. We are thrilled KARATS was able to get us a ring in our price point and value.
Karats is much more than just a store for wedding rings, they also have a large selection of luxury watches which is what keeps me returning to them. Their selection of rings is huge but so is their collection of luxury watches, I've bought 3 from Karats so far and I'm sure will buy more in the future. Great prices, huge selection of watches, friendly service and it's always a pleasure to talk to Andy.
Wouldn’t choose another store after you experience Karats. Thank you Elle for the amazing service, selection and being attentive to our budget and needs. You have our loyalty forever.
We searched for the perfect ring in the Kansas City metro and we looked at a lot of jewelry stores before we ended up choosing our ring from Karats. As soon as we stepped in we were greeting with smiles and we began the search for the perfect diamond ring for me. We ended up buying the ring same day because I fell in love with what I saw at Karats. Give them a visit and you will see for your self.
One word. Excellent. Hands down the best experience. Better service than everywhere we went. Her diamond is bigger than anywhere else we could have gotten it. Kuddos Karats and thank you Elle for making it happen.
Andy and his team at Karats are outstanding! He helped my boyfriend and I create a ring that I have always wanted! They are wonderful; at educating and providing options to stay within our planned budget. My ring turned out to be beautiful and exactly what we were imagining! We will definitely get all of our jewelry from Karats from now on!
(Not exactly the bride but the maid-of-honor!) Went with my sister to pick out her wedding ring and their selection is amazing! The staff was so friendly and attentive. Thank you Elle for making it such a wonderful experience for us and helping the bride find the perfect ring for her big day. I know where I’m shopping for a ring when my day comes!
Great shopping experience. The staff was very friendly and helped me figure out all the details i needed in picking the right ring. I'll be a returning customer for any jewelry needs after the experience I was given. Thanks Elle and Andy.
One word that would describe my experience with Karats? Perfection. The staff was incredibly knowledgeable, the selection was over the top and the service was the piece de resistance. I cant even explain how comfortable it felt going over all the different rings they had, within 5 minutes of sitting down and seeing all the variety they offer i knew i had chose the right place. Not to mention no other store we went to offered wine and whiskey. All in all i would give it a 10/10 and a must for anyone looking for the right engagement ring and wedding band.
The staff was very professional and helpful. When I needed help finding the perfect ring for my fiancé they were so patient and the large selection enabled me to find exactly what I was looking for!
My fiancé and I were looking for a unique engagement ring, we went to different stores in town and let me tell you, Karats has the best selection of engagement rings and we got an amazing deal 👌🏼 Highly recommend!!!
All I can say is WOW. I highly recommend Karats, specifically Andy! We had the BEST experience with him. He listened to exactly what we wanted, stayed within our budget, & exceeded our expectations.
Amazing customer service. Great selection.
My groom went hunting and searching to an insane amount of jewelry stores and came back to Karats Jewelers where the service and quality of their rings surpassed all! We did return to get our wedding band here as well! We are so happy with their cleaning services and the hospitality they have to offer!
I had been looking for a specific piece all day and was so glad that I stopped in Karats! I had never heard of them before and couldn't 't believe the amount of selection. The staff helped me find what I was looking for and I couldn't be happier! I will continue to recommend. Thank you Karats!
I purchased a beautiful engagement ring from here. They have the largest selection with over 5000 rings to choose from. Thank you KARATS for being Kansas City's best jewelry store. You guys rock and you absolutely the best around. You made her a happy girl and me a happy guy. We love everything about your store from selection to service to personal care. I am glad we found you.
I was referred to Karats by my brother who had purchased his engagement ring for this now wife. I was not disappointed in the quality of service I received from Andy and his staff. This was my first and last stop when it came to looking at engagement rings for my then girlfriend. I came in with a few ideas of what I was wanting and from there Andy and his staff helped me pick the perfect ring to propose with. By the end, I felt confident in my decision and that I was getting the best quality ring possible. Andy and his staff are very knowledge and they explain thoroughly in detail about the process and make sure you are comfortable with your decision.
When I proposed to my fiancé, the ring was too big but when we went into Karats the staff were more than helpful in helping us send the back in to get resized (free of charge!) The high quality of service at Karats is second to none and we knew we would be going back to them to purchase our wedding bands!
With planning a proposal, there are a lot of hard decisions to make, but do yourself a favor and pick Karats as your jeweler because that will be the easiest decision you can make!! Thanks Karats for your help during this process and we will continue going back to them for all our future purchases!
Drew at Karats helped my husband design a custom A Jaffe engagement ring for me with my Grandma's diamond. He was absolutely wonderful to work with and made the whole process special and stress-free.
It’s been a long journey to get where we are with my absolutely PERFECT ring. It’s finally wedding week & I could not be more happier with it. Andy and his staff have been so helpful every time we go in and they are so knowledgeable about their jewelry. Everyone has been so personable and so professional. From the minute we walked in there the first time, I knew that’s where I would find my ring. You absolutely do not get the same service anywhere else. Thank you, thank you, thank you to Andy and his team! You guys have been awesome!
Andy is amazing! Great customer service, they really focus on your wants and needs! Make you feel right at home! Locked in!
My Fiance got my ring through Karats and I absolutely LOVE it! Its everything I can imagine and then some! Andy is extremely helpful and was willing to go the extra mile to make sure it was perfect. The Veragio ring collection is so gorgeous go check it out! Would highly recommend this jewelry store to any and everyone! Thank you Karats!
Best store in the kansas city metro we purchased our rings and wedding bands here. Highly recommend
I had my fiancée wedding ring made by Tacori. At first they weren't going to let us use family diamonds but Drew went out of his way to call Tacori personally and see if they'd make an exception. To our surprise they did. Now, he has a beautiful Tacori ring made out of my dads wedding ring. If we hadn't already of bought my ring I would go back to karats. It's an amazing store and there service is next to none!
We bought my husbands wedding band at Karats. They were incredibly professional and were very patient while we tried on many rings for him. They even took my ring and cleaned it up even thought it wasn't theirs! They were so helpful and informative and we found my husband the perfect ring. To top it off they even wrote us a hand written letter congratulating us on our marriage! They seem to truly care about their customers.
Karats is the best in Kansas City hands down. They have the sweetest people working there. A.K.A. Nikki and Drew! Made my boyfriend and I feel comfortable from the start. We simply appreciated feeling taken care of and not sold to. Karats definitely stands out from the crowd. Highly recommend ladies!
I can't say thank you enough to Nikki, Drew, and Andy. My boyfriend and I had the best time and experience playing with all the rings! (sorry I had to try on every single ring. lol) On that note, I found my perfect Tacori ring!!!! Completely in love with it! You guys are the best in the business. Wishing you all the best! See you soon for our wedding bands! Love - R&T
My girlfriends and I came here because they had Verragio. So happy we did, because they had so many rings to try on! You can't appreciate the details from just pictures. Verragio looks best in person. The staff was super nice and accommodating with my friends. We felt welcomed and that meant a lot. Can't wait for my boyfriend to get my favorite ring!! (hopefully he's reading this..hint hint..lol) Thanks Karats! You guys are the best!
Heard about Karats so I wanted to see what they had to offer. Wow, tons of engagement rings to look at. My girlfriend was over the moon with the options. If you don't know what you want, definitely come here cause you'll be sure to find it. My girlfriend did! Worth the drive from Wichita. Shout out to Drew! You dah man!
Was apprehensive at first since I had a bad experience with two other jewelry stores prior. But I instantly felt welcomed. The environment is relaxing and isn't a pressure type of sales atmosphere. Thanks Drew and Andy for a awesome time finding my girlfriend the ultimate engagement ring!
I walked in with the fear of getting sold to and was delighted at the end of my experience that they showed care in the whole process from start to finish. Didn't expected to find the perfect ring for my girlfriend. See Drew, he's a one of a kind guy who is passionate about what he does. Karats is definitely the best by far. #PuttingARingOnIt
Good people, had a pleasant experience! Found just the ring I need! Must visit store for everyone. Andy and drew are very helpful, they make sure they take care of their customers.
Karats is by far the best jewelry store in Kansas City! Largest selection for engagement rings with all the top jewelry designers in the industry! My fiance customized a gorgeous Verragio ring with Andy's help and I couldn't be happier! We also purchased our Verragio wedding bands from Karats too. I highly recommend Karats to anyone looking for superb customer service and high quality designer jewelry. They also have the largest watch selection in the area as well! Great place to go for all your jewelry needs!
Had a great experiences at Karats. Great customers services, bought an Henri Daussi ring. They made my purchase easier then I thought. it would be. I would recommend this store to everyone.
Karats was wonderful to work with! They have the best variety of diamonds in the city - especially yellow diamonds, which is what I chose. I get tons of compliments on my gorgeous yellow diamond and refer everyone here.
Where do I even start with Karats? I decided to bring my fiancé to Karats off of a coworker's recommendation. We were looking for his wedding band and were having absolutely no luck at the other jewelry stores. Others only have a small shelf or corner of men's rings. I was told that Karats had a "pretty nice" selection of men's bands...pretty nice is most definitely an understatement! They have the widest selection of men's rings I've even seen! My fiance was like a kid in a candy store over the choice of bands and the watch selection...he loves watches!
So regarding our experience, first, Andy is AMAZING to work with! We wanted to stay within a budget and Andy showed us endless beautiful options. We were probably there for two hours, at least. Andy was extremely attentive, understanding, enthusiastic and super pleasant to work with. He's not your typical pushy saleman at all. He really listened to us and by the time we left, we were all like family!
Alex is a joy to work with, she's a sweetheart. I would come in to make a payment and we'd chat about everything (I will be making sure my bridesmaids have lipstick close by during the processional thanks to Alex Hahaha)! We've talked about our families, wedding plans, the future...all the things!! smile emoticon:)
Drew, oh sorry, Drewlicious (inside joke) is a joy! I don't think Drew is ever upset! He's like a burst of energy that just makes you happy to be around him. He's so attentive and excited to be there for us! Also, if you need a self esteem boost or fashion advice, Drew is your guy!! Xoxo
We stopped by yesterday to make our final payment on our rings. Our dads came with us and they were immediately impressed with everything I've mentioned above and the fact that Andy offered beverages of their choice! Hahaha!
Anyway, you won't be sorry if you go to Karats. It's an upscale establishment with a nice "homey" feel -- not stuffy or pretentious at all. You will have an outstanding experience, you will laugh and enjoy yourself...AND get some beautiful jewelry!
No need to go anywhere else...seriously, don't waste your time, GO TO KARATS!!
Best selection and great service. We ended up buying our engagement ring at Karats after shopping every where else in town. Best place in town hands down.
bought our Tacori ring and wedding bands here. great selection and service. I would say the largest selection in town.
We've had such an amazing experience with getting our wedding rings at Karats! We have received outstanding service and advice when selecting our rings. I absolutely love my Tacori engagement ring and band. Thank you for going above and beyond to provide quality service and for giving me the ring of my dreams!
Karats is the best. I love my ring! Great selection and customer service. Got a gorgeous Verragio. They have the largest selection.
I first walked into Karats just simply "browsing" what they have. (Keep in mind that I had no idea about what diamonds really were besides shiny rocks) I was greeted by Drew and from there he took me on an educational journey that lasted a couple of months and was never pressured to purchase anything at any time. I took a look at many other stores in the area but something about my experience with Drew brought me back to Karats, so from there, I had Drew help me from becoming a total ring beginner to someone that picked out the perfect ring for his fiance. He takes into account exactly what you're looking for and constantly reassures you that he will help find you the perfect setting, diamond, and full ring for the woman of your dreams. Drew was there every step of the way and was very quick to answer any questions that I had.
Overall,
I couldn't thank Drew and Karats enough for the assistance they gave me through the ring learning and buying process. I highly recommend Drew for anyone in the market for a ring.
We were on vacation in Kansas City and decided to check out Karats. We had an opportunity to work with Drew, and he was knowledgeable, thoughtful and most of all patient. It was a fantastic ring buying experience as he helped guide us to the perfect engagement ring and wedding band. I'll be visiting him again for future jewelry purchases.
While ring shpping, Andy opened a line of credit in my name without permission. After opening the credit without asking, he asked me to sign a form authorizing the credit. I told him no way I was signing. He became very rude, and I finally left. Never going back.
We love going to Karats for our jewelry needs!! Drew is great and he makes you feel like a million dollars!! I couldn't have asked for a better place to get our rings!
I have been looking for a wedding ring since the past 4 years. Living in the UK, i was spoilt for choice but i still couldnt find one that my heart went out to. My search ended when i found Karats. Andy has made this shopping experience the best I've ever had, even if it was all virtual. Karats helped me make the most optimum use of my budget and found me a beautiful Tacori ring. I usually never shop online but with karats I wasnt one bit nervous about making one of my most expensive purchases. Andy is the most committed and trustworthy businessman i have come across and above all he respects the customers tastes and requirements. They went above and beyond to have the ring sent to india where i will soon collect it! Can't wait to put it on.
Over two months time, I visited each jeweler in the Kansas City, Overland Park and surrounding areas. In that two months, I discovered that, if you want something unique and interesting, you have to stray away from big box retailers. I whittled it down to three main boutique jewelers, but Karats was the first to make the experience as gracious and amicable as humanly possible. Each other boutique either eventually succumbed to their bias need to make the sale, or to the belief that because I did not buy their most expensive ring offered me, I wasn't a real buyer - therefore, did not deserve any more time. The people at Karats were gracious, and inviting, and stuck out the entirety of my unique vision for what I wanted, and what I needed; they never let me out of their capable hands. The salesperson, Elle, was the one to facilitate the entire process for me. She discovered what I wanted, and belayed my concerns in the most accommodating way. Even though my order was a tad peculiar, and custom in many ways, Elle, went above and beyond. My ring had issues, and, Andy - the owner - was as accommodating and professional as a person could be - the proposal was perfect, thanks to, Karats. There is a real concern for the customer, and strive for attaining the optimal experience at Karats that is seemingly unheard of at the other establishments. Even after the issues, the staff and owner have been nothing but gracious and accommodating. I will be returning for more pieces very soon. You should stop by, and ask for, Elle, or, Dru. You will not be amiss.
Karats was an amazing experience for me. Out of the dozen jewelry stores I visited, they had the best customer service and were the friendliest. They did not pressure me and they were very understanding of my budget. The employee that helped me was Elle and she was very knowledgable and helpful. I was very pleased with her patience, I looked at several different diamonds and rings and she worked hard to help me! I would definitely recommend them!
Andy and his crew did a great job helping me find the perfect ring! I highly recommend Karats to everyone!
My girlfriend and I went to Karats several times throughout the ring shopping process. Although we ended up going with a vintage ring, Karats was by far the best jeweler in the KC area that we visited. The selection and staff were top notch. I would highly recommend it.
My fiancé and I came to Karats as our first choice when looking for rings for our engagement. We were amazed by the level of personalized service they gave us, working with us one on one to find the perfect fit, and help us stay within our budget as well. We were surprised when we found exactly what we wanted at the first place we looked! It didn't take long for them to have the rings made and they even tweaked the design of mine to make it more unique and personal. We would definitely recommend Karats to anyone looking for a great engagement experience in finding the perfect ring for you both!
I drove here intitally because they were one of the very few places that sold the brand of wedding ring my fiancee was seeking. I dove the hour here and continue to do it.
As my relationship with the love of my life has progressed, I feel my relationship with Karats has as well. Andy, in a way, has become a member of our extended family.
It's one thing to go somewhere and "buy" something. With Andy he celebrates your successes in love. He remembers hopes for the best through all your adversity. In short he tastefully helps to facilitate your desire for jewelry through his passion to find your inner self.
I could not imagine going to any other place for jewelry at this point.
My family lives in Overland Park, Kansas and have always shopped at Karats. Me and my now fiancé visited Karats upon the recommendation and were absolutely pleased by the huge selection that even we couldn't see it in California. Karats had a huge selection of Tacori engagement rings that I was interested in. We not only found the perfect ring and diamond but at a remarkable price as well. Andy helped us all the way through and made sure our experience was one that would be remembered. As they say, its the little things that matter. When we received our rings Karats sent us a coffee mug with our pictures on them. It was a very sweet and thoughtful gesture. they truly go above and beyond.
Excellent experience!! Helped us through the complete process of picking the setting, diamond, and band. Very personable experience, and the best customer service in town!
I would add stars if it allowed. My experience was phenomenal and I would recommend everyone go to Karats... They are by far the best in town. I did my homework and they blow the competition away.
We road-tripped home from Virginia and, after he proposed, we decided to use the opportunity to hunt for the perfect ring. After falling in love with a specific style, I would swear we stopped at every dealer along the way and I hated every one of them! We would get in the car and I would sigh and pout, because I hated the feeling of being pressured and talked down to. Until we got to Karats!! Met Drew and instantly felt comfortable! He helped us decide on and design the perfect rings and never made us feel pressured or awkward. Their prices were able to beat every other jeweler we'd visited and their customer service was literally second to NONE! I would recommend anyone getting ready to buy the perfect engagement ring (or other jewelry) visit them and you will not regret it! Trust me... I'm very picky! I hate to spend money in places that I don't feel deserve my money, just because they sell a thing that I want. We dealt exclusively with Drew, so I do not know the other staff, but if you have the opportunity, he's amazing! We cannot thank Karats enough for being part of a very special experience in our lives and we would both recommend them to anyone!
Drew was extremely helpful and assisted me through my financial budget and finding what options were available to me and to help me find an amazing diamond that my fiancé is absolutely in love with. I couldn't have felt better with my choice and having drew as my salesman and consultant. They assisted all my needs, finances, time, speed, and quality. I couldn't recommend anywhere better! Thank you so much drew! She is in love with the ring and everyone else jealous :)
I am so grateful for the help and care my boyfriend and I recieved in shopping for the perfect engagement ring setting. We were so thrilled to have my mother pass my grandma's diamond to us to have set in a dream setting, but really wanted to be sensible about the cost of choosing something or having something custom-made. I found a gorgeous white and rose gold Verragio setting, and Elle helped me with the ordering and real customization to fit my grandma's diamond. Elle sent me a picture as soon as it came in from Verragio, and it is gorgeous! (I'm waiting until the proposal to see it for myself and I can't wait!) I know it will be flawless! I have already referred some close friends to Karats and I highly recommend anyone who is shopping for something beautiful and sentimental without breaking the bank! Thanks, Elle! ~Katie
Elle Harvey helped us pick out our Verragio setting. Then she was able to over night a diamond within our specifications. The diamond was not only beautiful but also very reasonably priced. Plan ahead because it takes some time to have them make a ring to custom specifications. Excelent quality rings are worth the wait. After searching all over Lawrence and Jonson county for a place to buy our engagement ring I can say with certainty that Karats is the best choice. (Wish I would have just read the Knot reviews before wasting time looking everywhere else.)
We were so happy to have met Loni & Andy at Karats in Overland Park. We had a bad experience at another jeweler in the area who sold us a poor cut diamond. Luckily we were able to return it for the full refund and when we told Andy & Loni our story they were quick to start the search for a diamond that fit our specifications and budget. Loni spent a significant amount of time pulling GIA certificates on diamonds for us to review and when we finally found one we liked, they brought it in free of charge just so we could look at it and decide if we wanted to purchase it. It was the perfect diamond for us! Loni also spent tons of time showing us all the different styles of bands & options. My fiance ended up purchasing a Verragio which was so perfect for the diamond he purchased and the style I was looking for. We both had the best experience with Karats and would recommend them to any couple looking to the most bang for their buck and good quality customer service. They don't treat you like a number. They remember your name and really truly take care of you. Thank you so much for making this time in our lives special and for helping to ensure our investment stands the test of time!
I'm a shopper, and a researcher. Hands down from everywhere I went, Karats had the best prices, quality and the selection. Don't believe me. See for yourself. A life time customer with a happy lady by my side.
My fiancé customized my stunning verragio from Karats. We visited many other stores before we found Karats. We fell in love with the personalized service, selection and the utmost care they provided. They are truly an amazing establishment in Kansas City metro. I'm in love with ring. Thanks to Karats.
Even though I live in Las Vegas, when my fiancée began shopping for rings I knew the right hints to drop on where to look! Akshay and the whole staff at KARATS had helped my younger brother with his search when he was looking for the perfect ring to present to his fiancée, and they did the most impeccable job!!!! Though I have never met Akshay personally, I knew that if my brother could trust him, I and my future fiancée could, too. All I can say is I was stunned, and my fiancée credits everything to KARATS for helping him find the right one. Thank you, thank you, everyone!!!!!! I can never repay you all enough. My ring is perfect.
I haven't had a better experience in Kansas City when it comes to a jewelry store. Karats and the amazing people that work there made our experience simply wonderful. Our sales person was absolutely knowledgable and walked us through every step. From start to finish it was only A class. Our sales person continues to be in touch with us. Clearly they are more interested in building a life long relationship than just a sale. Absolutely pleased with our purchase.
From the time i stepped into KARATS I was amazed by the selection that they carry. I was helped by Andy and he truly went above and beyond to satisfy my needs and help me find a ring that was within my budget. I got a gorgeous Tacori with a beautiful diamond that she loves everyday. It is truly a family owned business like Karats that exceeds your expectations. We look forward to coming back again and again.
Karats Jewelers is by far the finest with highest quality designer jewelry in the Kansas City area! My fiancé customized a beautiful Verragio ring for me and couldn't have done it without the help from Karats team! Karats has the best designers, most knowledgeable and helpful staff, and overall best customer service of any jewelry store around. I highly recommend Karats to anyone!
My husband and I purchased my beautiful engagement ring and both our wedding bands at Karats! Andy was extremely helpful; it was easy to see how much passion and knowledge he has in fine jewelry. He was patient with us as we spent time deciding which design fits my personality and our budget...truly an unforgettable experience! Thank you team Karats! I will be in on Christmas for Daron's Breitling!!
Karats is an excellent choice to shop your engagement and wedding ring selection! They are extremely personal and get to know you and your taste and make fabulous recommendations! Also, Andy is SUPER great! :)
No joke...this is the best store in KC when it comes to engagement rings. Me and my fiancé shopped everywhere and found the perfect engagement ring at Karats. Loni helped us and made our experience really great. I'm looking at my ring and smiling right now. We searched everywhere and the selection at Karats made it all possible.
There is a reason why Karats is always busy when you visit them. There personal attention, utmost care, unbeatable selection is what makes them stand out.
Not only that we got the best price and value for what we wanted but my fiancé loved the huge selection and the time spent with us through each step. Thank You Karats for the incredible service. Your Forever Customer.
Andy and his team run a top-notch jewelry store with honesty and fairness, and they always make you feel like a friend when you walk in the door.
There's no standard, cookie-cutter jewelry or engagement rings here. Everything is unique, beautiful, and they can meet any need or budget.
I can't recommend Karats highly enough. This is the only jeweler I will ever use as long as I'm in the KC area.
It's nice to know there really is a place that can make your dreams come true. That place is KARATS JEWELERS and they will turn your vision of jewelry into a reality. I experienced this with the purchase of a designer ring by A Jaffe. Not only is the design unique and flawless, but the diamonds radiate a dazzling glow. You will get the benefit of competent advice and receive personal attention from the owner Akshay Andy Anand. His focus is to provide his customers with beautiful memories for a lifetime.
My husband and I had the greatest experience with Karats. I love the top-notch selections that they have, and the customer service is excellent. Andy is terrific; he is so accommodating and extremely knowledgeable. I absolutely love the custom engagement ring that my husband chose for me. I still get complements on how stunning my ring and wedding band are. Karats Jewelers is the best jewelry store around, I wouldn’t consider going to anywhere else.
Andy and the team took such good care of me. They were genuinely kind, extremely welcoming, and unbelievably patient throughout the entire process. Andy earned my trust by walking me through each step and assuring me that he was giving me an excellent product for a fair and honest price. They were all completely pressure free, and treated me like a friend, even though my purchase was tiny compared to most. Karats has the best, most unique and beautiful selection I've ever seen. No matter what your jewelry needs, Karats will do everything in their power to make sure you are completely comfortable, informed, and satisfied with your purchase.
Shopping at a chain jewelry store vs. shopping at Karats is like buying a sample dress off the rack or ordering your dress straight from the designer. If you shop at a chain store you go in that day and choose a ring from a couple dozen designs, they size the ring to fit, and you take it home in a day or two. When you shop at Karats you have hundreds of rings to choose from! Each ring can be customized to your exact liking. So it's impossible not to find something that you love. I found a ring that I was almost perfect but I didn't like the shape of it so my fiance, I, and Eric (the wonderful salesman) drew up a sketch and sent it to the designer and they custom made my ring. My ring was never sized because it was made specifically for me and there is no other ring like it. I got the of my dreams and didn't even go over the budget. Yes it does take several weeks to make but it was 1000x worth it. Everyone at Karats is nothing but amazing, and I recommend them to everyone!
My fiance was dead set on a Verragio ring, after talking to Andy at Karats on the phone and setting up an appointment, I was very pleased with the selection they had in the store. He is very knowledgeable about diamond quality and structure, more so than any other store I checked out, and made me feel comfortable about my purchase. Overall I'm happy with the experience and glad I did business with them, I will be going back
My fiance had found a Kirk Kara ring that we liked online and it was only available at Karats. We had shopped around a little bit at other stores, and found things I liked, but never loved. We decided to go check this ring out at Karats. From the minute we walked into the store, we were greeted warmly. Though we looked at many rings, that Kirk Kara was "the one" for me! Two of the associates kept me busy checking out other jewelry while the owner, Andy, discussed diamonds and budget with my fiance.
We had an absolutely fantastic experience. My fiance loved the owner and said he worked with our budget. Andy made the experience go really smoothly, especially because picking out the perfect engagement ring can be kind of stressful for men! They even called my fiance a few weeks after he purchased the ring, because they'd gotten a better diamond in that was still comparable in price to what he was looking for - he went in and ended up exchanging the original center stone for the one I got! I was so excited.
I especially loved that all the jewelry in Karats is customizable - if you wanted the look of diamonds but had a lower budget, you could get white sapphires. Or if you wanted rubies, emeralds, etc. you can have it!
He and I both had a fantastic experience at Karats and can't wait to go back to get the matching wedding band.
Andy and the team took such good care of me. They were genuinely kind, extremely welcoming, and unbelievably patient throughout the entire process.
Andy earned my trust by walking me through each step and assuring me that he was giving me an excellent product for a fair and honest price.
They were all completely pressure free, and treated me like a friend, even though my purchase was tiny compared to most.
Karats has the best, most unique and beautiful selection I've ever seen. No matter what your jewelry needs, Karats will do everything in their power to make sure you are completely comfortable, informed, and satisfied with your purchase.
My fiancee and I shopped around at a variety of jewelry stores in the Kansas City area, and without a doubt, Karats was the best place we looked. They have the largest selection and the best designers.
The overall experience was great - there was never pressure to buy, and everyone was very helpful. We also enjoyed the free beers while we shopped. Highly recommend Karats to everyone.
Every guy who is looking for an engagement ring should truly only go to Karats! Andy worked with my now fiancé' over several month to perfectly create the engagement ring of our dreams. I am a specific person which did not scare Andy at all. My fiancé' brought Andy all of the "hints" I had been dropping about the ring of my dreams and Andy worked his magic. Now, the biggest part of all of this was that my fiancé' really wanted to surprise me and knowing how important this was to us; Andy made sure to keep this secret under lock and key. I cannot say enough great things about our experience with Karats Jeweleres and I can’t wait to go in again for our wedding bands! Thank you!!!
The experience I had a Karats Jewelers was amazing. I live about 3 hours away and they were the closest dealer of verragio rings. I made a few phone calls and emails and decided to use them. That was the best choice I made. Everything from that point on was handled perfectly and Andy along with the rest of the staff helped me in any way I asked. The ring I ordered sight unseen came in perfectly. I drove up to pick out the main stone for the engagement ring I purchased and the selection of diamonds was amazing. I ended up with a ring way more beautiful than I ever imagined. The staff and everything they have available in the store are both a step above the rest. Everything I did was kept a secret and that was very much important to me because I wanted to get my girlfriend the ring of her dreams and it to be a surprise. I will say without a doubt that even though they are 3 hours away from where I live. I will never go anywhere else for any jewelry needs.
PS- They also repaired and recoated some old jewelry of my sisters and the work that was done to those rings was breathtaking. They look brand new now.
Well to be honest, I had looked at every store in Kansas City before I came here. I live in North Kansas City so the drive south was the reason behind that. After visiting a popular North Kansas City store that consisted of the sales person being rude and saying numerous insulting statements.
I decided to listen to a friend and check out Karats. I had sent them an e-mail at 11:30p.m., with the belief that I would get a response in a day or two. Andy sent me a response in 15 minutes. I was very shocked to say the least and after a few emails that night we set up an appointment. When I showed up for the appointment I only had intention to look but left open the possibility of same day purchasing. Andy pulled the 6 rings I had found on the website, and a few that were very similar. He was very down to earth and gave me histories of the various brands. He then asked what I was looking for and kept pulling rings until I was completely happy. I am someone who will always find a fault in any product I try to buy, but Andy didn't seem to mind as he kept pulling rings until the perfect one was found. I got a ring that I never thought I could afford, everyone that sees it is speechless. My fiancee can't stop staring at it and that makes it all worth it.
Of all the stores I have went to, this was hands down the best. The staff sends emails every few days to keep you updated. They also seem to care about the details behind the occasion for the purchase, like you are family to them and not a dollar sign. I am glad I listened to my friend and checked out this store instead of looking at how far away it was. For the service and quantity of upper tier jewelry, I would gladly drive any distance.
If you have any questions about where to take your business, I assure you there is no place like Karats Fine Jewelers. Prior to working with Karats, my fiancé and I visited several jewelers, both in-store and online, including Shane Co., Hurst Fine Diamonds, Noble House Jewelry, and Jared, that left us less than excited about our pursuit for the perfect engagement ring. However, our hopes were revived upon discovering the incredible quality, selection, and customer service at Karats. Andy and his team are fully committed to providing exceptional individual care and attention, making this locally-owned business second to none. Thanks to Andy’s knowledge of fine jewelry and dedication to customer satisfaction, my fiancé was able to find the perfect ring, remain on budget, and propose with full confidence. We have since returned to have my ring sized, and continue to be exceedingly satisfied with the quality of care we have received. As a result of the positive experiences we have had, we will definitely be returning to Karats to find the perfect wedding band for my fiancé.
Andy was amazing to work with. He helped me in the beginning of trying to figure out what design best suited my fiance. After emailing numerous photos I came to the store and he had many choices available for me to look at. When we finally helped me pick the right ring he let me set up a flexible payment plan so that I could proceed with my engagement. After many personal life changes with jobs changing, layoffs and moving Andy was very flexible with when I made my payments. After a year of his courtesy I finally got the ring paid off and got engaged. He gave me a GREAT deal and his customer service is above and beyond. I will recommend Andy to anyone I hear looking for jewelry. We will be back soon to get my band and her wedding band.
This vendor is amazing! The people are so nice and extremely informative. They have done wonders for my husband and I. Their store has some of the most gorgeous and affordable rings I have ever seen in my life! The quality of service and care my husband and I received while in the store is unbelievable. They pulled so many strings to get us a great deal, as well as get my dream ring custom made. They let us do payment plans as well. If you care about quality care and service, then I would highly recommend this place. After shopping at Karats, I refuse to buy any jewelry from anywhere else. Andy has been so kind and super helpful with everything and answered every question we have had. Thank you Karats! You have a lifelong customer!
Andy and the Karats staff in Overland Park could not have treated me any better than they did. I ordered the engagement ring about a month before an on and off again trip out of the country. When I decided to go on the trip 6 days before the flight I contacted Andy to see if it was possible to get the engagement 2 weeks early for the proposal. Andy was able to come through for me and get the ring delivered overnight and in my hands just in time for the trip. If it was not for him everything would not have worked out perfect, but thanks to him it did.
The staff was not pushy, but were very attentive to my needs. Though I had researched a lot prior to coming in they were able to help me narrow down my selection to the perfect ring, and my fiance could not be any happier. I would give them 6 stars if possible. I have already recommended them to a friend who started picking out a ring last week.
The main reason we went into Karats was because the reviews I read about Karats on other local sites were so good. It seemed like all of the reviews mentioned Andy by name, so I knew we would get the personal touch of the owner. I am sure other places are good, but it probably also depends on the sales person you are talking to. Every time I have been to Karats, Andy is there. Our experience was great, Andy was the first person we talked with and he stayed with us throughout the whole process, until I picked up the ring. He discussed several styles with my fiance and then talked budget with me separately. We found the perfect ring and it arrived on schedule. It looks great and fit her finger perfect. I did some price comparing (although its hard to match exactly), and I think you get more for your money at Karats, rather than the other places in town. I think it was a great deal, and our overall experience was fantastic. Our wedding is next June so we have not bought my wedding ring yet, Karats is the only place I would go, strictly based on trust with Andy. He has our future business and we highly recommend Karats.

I wanted to extend my sincerest thanks! I recently had the unfortunate experience of losing my custom made wedding ring. After months of searching for a replacement online I walked into Karats and found the perfect replacement ring. Thanks to the knowledgeable staff at Karats purchasing a new ring was a relaxed process. I was a concerned about the fit of the ring, as my last ring would sometimes feel too tight. But they got the fit perfect even on the hot days! We also asked for a few changes to the design and the ring arrived flawless. I have been enjoying my new ring for about a month now and I still say everyday how much I love my new ring!
Thanks!!!
Andrea
My fiancee and me have been looking for engagement ring for more than 6 months in Texas, Minnesota and Kansas. Always found something which did not make it perfect, except when we stopped by here at KARATS. When Andy (owner) says it is family-owned, he means it by all means. Highly knowledgeable staff, ready to help and very patient. We spent hours at one visit, sometimes even beyond store closing time.
When Andy says, it is largest engagement ring collection in town, he means it. It is. We were able to see so many, and my fiancee found absolutely what was in her dreams for last year, which no other store in 3 states (we tried dozens of stores) had.
More so, the prices were very comparable, and mostly lower than the competitors. He worked with us so many hours, in person as well as over email and phone and so on. It is very personal experience, as he keeps track of everything for you, including regular updates on where the ring is at in the process.
Last but not the least, Andy has a great sense of humor and at same time carries a decency of great businessman, who will make you have a lifetime experience for a lifetime process such as engagement rings, or wedding band or even men's band.. We got all three from him! Everything looks stunning, and most importantly my life partner is so happy :)
Andy is amazing. Although I knew the exact ring I wanted going in I had a very specific looking stone in mind which was very difficult to find, he worked with us for 6 long months to find the perfect stone. He was extremely patient even though I was a tough customer, in the end he is just as happy as my fiance and I are about my engagement ring. Not to mention Karats is one of two jewelers in the area that sell the Verragio brand and I can assure you they are MUCH more pleasant, friendlier, and caring then the second jeweler.
Karats was one of the first stores I went to while searching for an engagement ring for my long time girlfriend, and I knew right away this is where I would find the perfect ring. They have an enormous collection of beautiful designer rings, and Andy and staff were professional and very helpful.
I had a lot of questions and concerns as this is a huge step in my life, and Andy's knowledge and honesty made it as easy as possible and relieved a lot of stress. He was very easy to communicate with through e-mail and I always got a response through e-mail or over the phone on the same day.
I ended up with a gorgeous ring that I know she will love. I can't wait for the proposal and will gladly be working with Andy again to pick out the wedding rings.
