Fitted Kitchen

I'm in the market for a new kitchen, where is the best place to get one from these days? Will require fitting also.

I have always used Wickes's stuff. I have fitted four of these in the past. Not the cheapo end or the top of the range end, but the mid-range. Good solid units with decent soft close hinges and solid drawers - not the hardboard base variety!

Wait until they are on special offer though, which they do from time to time.

Cheers, Wickes are on my list anyway, good to hear your experience with them.

Just had a quick look at the Wickes kitchen website. Seems there are now just two ranges - basic, aka Lifestyle (up to £4K) and top range, aka Bespoke kitchens (from £4K up). There is 50% off some units and I see they also do interest free credit which might be of interest to you.

Wow, cheers, that sounds good. It's only a small kitchen though, so hope they don't insist on a minimum spend. Do they come to measure up or is that down to you?

In my old gaff I had a kitchen through Howdens , I’d go with them out of what’s been mentioned. I wouldn’t touch IKEA as their sizes are not usually standard fit.

Howdens will digitally design your kitchen to fit your requirements.

Thanks but you need an account with them to buy from them. You can only get an account if you're in the trade.

My builder used his trade account and we paid him cash when we used howdens.

My wife has also been advised Wren are decent enough from her few of her friends who have had work undertaken.

Good luck anyway.

Use a decent chippy that has one? They get better prices for you then too

Don't know as I always do my own measurements. Worth checking that with them then.
