poppy ben grace Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Hi, we have a howdens kitchen, my oh has an account with them so got it at trade price. Just a word of caution, tradesmen somtimes put a bit extra on the price that they actually get it for. I am sure your carpenter is reliable but just be aware. Good luck, somtimes howdens have offers on with their kitchens, we got a free dishwasher with ours! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely, I have heard that if the trademan uses them a lot they can get up to 70% of the book price so as ever don't let the book price foold you.

patsylabrador Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 In an ideal world I would get my kitchen from Smallbones of Devizes but its not so we went to IKEA, got nice kitchen units and a double butler sink. This was about 4 years ago and the units still look and function as good as new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicken shack Posted October 27, 2011 Author Share Posted October 27, 2011 My new cooker arrived yesterday so at least I can cook in relative safety. I bought an induction hob and it heats up quicker than gas. Love it. Ordered the new kitchen from Howdens through my joiner today, however he can't fit it untill after Christmas and it is arriving Saturday Oh well I am getting used to living with boxes.

BarbaraJ Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 How did you get on with your quote and do you have a kitchen. we had a howdens lady round but was a bit shocked by the quote ! asked the builder to get back to them . Got a Wren man coming today for measurements. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicken shack Posted May 7, 2012 Author Share Posted May 7, 2012 Yes we have had a Howdens kitchen fitted and we are very pleased with it. I guy in our village is a joiner and he fitted it. He did lots of little extras for us and also built us a coat cupbourd as the offer gave you a door free. We have since had 8 new interal Howdens doors fitted. We went for the Burford cream kitchen. If you can afford to go for the wide drawer unit and have plinth draw. We only got one but I now wish I had a few more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
