My team and I have worked closely with Greg and Robert for over a year now. I absolutely loved working with them -- they went above and beyond to meet our needs and their turnaround is very quick. Any time I am in need of help with a side project, I always go back to them! I would 100% recommend this firm to anyone especially in need with product design and development.

I have collaborated Product Council on several projects over the past 15 years. The first product was a product called the iPager, an inter-office wireless paging system for dental medical offices which was developed prior to the iPhone. Greg and Bob spearheaded this product by creating a design that used out existing circuit board design. They created the CAD drawings for our manufacturer in China and did a fantastic job intergrating form and function of the device that provided quick simple paging with just a couple of touches to the Ipager. We also worked on a Smat Pot for monitoring pasta doneness based on the type of pasta, They have also have contributed on another new product called the "Stance Wizard" which is golf product that help with proper stance based on the club your using and your physical characteristics. They are my go to firm on design and engineering on any new product we develop. I recommend them to all of my manufacturing associates that need a good creative design alternative.

I worked with Greg and Bob and their team at Product council to develop my signature Modern Mixologist line of barware. As a professional mixologist, my goal was to create a high-quality professional tool line for experts and enthusiasts alike. It was important that each product be designed to meet my specifications in terms of function, design, ergonomics and manufactured quality. My standards were high, we went back and forth on every little design detail and these guys knocked it out of the park. Their expertise and spirited nature made the entire process a wonderful collaborative experience. I would highly recommend this firm to anyone. "Tony Abou Ganim's Review Sourced from Google
We have employed Product Council exclusively as our product designers since early 2001. During that time, we've developed over twenty distinctly different products together. Some challenges have been of the highest in magnitude, but we collaborate well together. They're centrally located in Chicago and have a strong variety of resources at their facility. The principals, Robert and Greg, make certain to stay involved throughout - even when handing off work to others team members. They understand offshore challenges and the desires of the consumer, as well as our challenges as a conduit to both. I highly recommend this firm. "John DeCosmo's Review Sourced from Google
I am very pleased to write a review for Product Council. I was first referred to them by a well respected Chicago prototype company. I had a concept that I was determined to see through and P.C. helped take my concept and turn it into a beautifully designed, engineered and fully functional manufactured product that is currently selling through dealers, a website and Amazon (USA and internationally). The product has quickly grown into a market leader in its niche.Working with Product Council has been great because they got to know the product requirements, easily worked with me and my factory, and understood the expectations for sales growth. After a number of years of working with them, I have now started working on the next iteration of the product line.My downtown office is in a shared work-space where I am literally surrounded by product designers and engineers who chat my up regularly, but I continue to go back to Product Council because I want it done right the first time.
