My order arrived on.time and the whole process was easy.
Did an online trial request. Was contacted via phone to confirm my information so they could send me the requested flute. Decided to buy the flute. Purchase was easy & seamless. Highly recommend Flute Center!!
Flute Center is truly special -
It is rare to have a real personal care and true interest in supporting artists. The way the whole team looks after musicians at Flute Center is unparalelled and is rooted in the generosity and personal attention of Phil Unger, who is one of a kind. If you are after a great experience, Flute Center should be your number one address!
I have been shopping with Flute Center for almost 10 years, in person and trials. The flute specialists (especially Kristen) are wonderful! They are knowledgeable, honest and up front when discussing issues and options. I joke they are my "pushers" when it comes to flutes, but the bottom line is their selection and options as well as some of their unique offerings make this the perfect place for flute players to explore and find the perfect match.
Great customer service, I had lots of questions and was being tedious with the flute I wanted, and Lauren helped me out with everything. Very grateful and would recommend getting a flute with the Flute Center
The Flute Center, and Lauren in particular, are absolutely wonderful. They supported me in my search for a vintage Powell, and the one that I finally purchased is superb. Highly recommended!
Such a great experience! Natalie was super knowledgeable and very friendly! So refreshing to experience top notch service. In addition to a robust inventory of flutes and auxiliary instruments to try, all the flute specific accessories make it a one stop shop for any flautist. 10’s across the board!
Amazing service, great products, all around fantastic experience with The Flute Center. Highly recommend their service!
They were Very helpful, we are first time flute owners. Very happy overall with the experience.
The best place to buy flutes, ever. Huge shout-out to the manager at Chicago’s location — Lauren; she is simply the kindest and an amazing human being that is always ready to help with all your questions or problems. Also, the rest of the team—they truly are passionate at their job, you can tell that they are dedicated to help you find the best flute that will fits your needs and budgets. Truly an amazing experience.
Staff was nice. Answered my questions and helped me try a beautiful flute
Caity was a joy to work with. She was friendly, professional, knowledgeable, patient and helpful, answering all my questions and walked me though the entire process, taking care of all the details. The seven-day trial was a wonderful sales tool because once I had my Resona in my hands and heard its superb tone, and experienced the action for myself, I knew this was the piccolo for me.
If you’re on the fence about whether to use this company for trials/purchasing flutes, no need to think about it. They are great people and their mission is to get a flute that fits YOUR needs. Kim Lewis was phenomenal in the process of helping me to get my new flute, she was very receptive of my very specific preferences and most importantly she was patient. Try their great trial program! Hope this review encourages you to hit the “Request Trial” button lol. Take care!
I always enjoy working with the Flute Center. The staff are always so friendly and helpful when it comes to any questions I may have. I’ve purchased several instruments and etc. and they’ve always communicated with me on every process before my items deliver. I’ll continue to shop from the Flute Center to help their business flourish so they can continue the flutes legacy!
