I'm delighted with my expertly fitted kitchen via the Bilston branch with professional design support from Radeeyah.
The kitchen was fitted by Nick and Adrian. Two great, trustworthy, reliable and honest professional tradesmen who go above and beyond.
My quartz worktops were measured and fitted beautifully.
Thanks for all involved, it was a daunting experience, made seamless.
Well done all!

I regret ordering the paint-to-order kitchen which was completed for use approximately 14 months ago.
Within two weeks of gentle use the paint on the doors and drawers started chipping in random places. As the paint is dark green, the white undercoat really pops out.
By the one year anniversary I contacted Howdens and was asked to send photos via email.
They replied stating that it is general wear and tear. I don't agree. The paint is better in some areas than others. The paint on kickboards seems to be better quality and they haven't marked at all. Some doors and drawers have marked more than others and not necessarily the ones that are in constant use.
As a goodwill gesture I have been given a paint touch up kit (a can of spray paint) that apparently retails at £43.04 including vat. As I don't drive, Will very kindly arranged to have the paint dropped off.
I don't know where to start with a can of spray paint. I'm worried I will make matters worse. Howden's company policy doesn't allow them to show me how to use it, which I fully understand.
I'm 63 and thought that this kitchen would last me a lifetime. I am so sad that it looks shabby already.
I wish that I had opted for the MDF option rather than paying for the premium painted finish. I naively listened to the hype given by the sales person e.g. wooden doors are more hard wearing than MDF etc.
Friends have asked if I recommend this company for a new kitchen. I tell them to shop around.
I hope this review helps you to ask the right questions before buying a custom painted kitchen.
