As an NYC Interior Designer, Kitchen and Bathroom renovation expert I visited this show to find new finishes and materials for my several Design projects in Manhattan. Beautiful murals, rugs ,light and ceramic as well as new bathroom fixtures. Great experience. www.nldreaminteriors.com

Love you have a book guide so I can finder everything more easy just in the hands, I find in this show a lot of good products!! Thank you

as you know parking and getting around was a mess ..... many of my vendors were among the missing ..... and registration should be as close to the entry as possible ..... remember we walk all day .....

the biggest disappoint with the show is picking up the badges....would love to see it at the entrance again...as if was at the entrance for years....we walk all day ...don't need that long walk first thing in the morning

I really appreciated the shuttle service routes to and from the Show. There was plenty of information to help plan your day. I was a bit surprised how much smaller the Show was, but with Covid I do understand. It was just a shame to miss so many wonderful vendors from years past. It is always so much nicer when you can meet people in person and actually touch and see products.

There were new and younger brilliant exhibitions that'd definitely bring in some sort of competition into the market. It was and amazing experience generally.

My first time going. Registering before hand made picking up badges very easy. I appreciate the fact that all the vendors and a description of their wares was available when I downloaded the app on my phone. What I found helpful was going through the list of vendors before the show so that I could plan and visit the ones that carried what I was interested in first. The booths were all clearly marked in the specific halls which made them easy to find. I found the show well organized and the communications and updates sent to me a way to keep me engaged and informed. I don't know if any hotels were offering a specail rate for paticipants. That would have been a bonus.

I learned that you cannot take your 10-year-old daughter to ICFF, even with preregistration and a show pass. I remember going to the show in 2019 and being so inspired and excited to take all the new ideas back to my design practice. I remember meeting young college designers with fantastic furniture pieces and thinking this would be an inspiring show for young people. This time my excitement was squelched by the show manager telling me they could not let my daughter in unless she was over the age of 16 due to liabilities with the “very expensive products on display.” I sadly abided by the rules and ventured into the show alone only to be almost tripped by a dog on a long leash with an excited long tail roaming the showroom floor. A dog was not considered a liability, but my budding interior designer was. Hospitality, which is a main design sector of the show, was not on display at ICFF. I will not be re-attending ICFF in the future nor advising any of my 300+ coworkers to attend.

Pros it was a clean event, fast registration & saw it all in one day. Cons, it was small, missing alot of quality vendors. Food options was lethargic, better to leave & eat elsewhere. Most of my usual vendors were all missing. Little to none Boothe sells & no samples from New vendors options. Really made the whole ordeal a guessing game on their quality of product.

Great Show, well organized many new vendors. Only the food court was really bad choices. Please get better restaurants next time.
