All I can say is see it before you buy and don't part with any wads until you're happy with what you've got.

Can't speak for these people, but have seen other "no chipboard" kitchens that are anything but, and they come with loads of stuff missing.

May well be a small family run firm (they've hardly pushed the boat out with their web site development). So they may have High quality, low turnover, low overheads. Don't assume that it's cr*p just because it's cheap.

I'm not necessarily saying it's good, but I'd guess they're not a very big company. You can also get some pretty attrocious little companies too.

your going to pay your money and take your chances on this one i have seen so many cheap but good kitchens fitted this looks on the side of the cheapest for the type of kitchen your going to get

what makes me think twice is the granite tops being sold as real granite ? at this price seems really too good to be true ,then again it isnt saying how much of the kitchen your going to get does it

stick to the sheds at least you know your going to be shafted a little bit

 

[big-all]

it says "from"

so the "from" price may well include the items described but "from" may just be a sink unit and a wall unit!!!!!
where as the pictured kitcken may be £7000 ask to find out!!!!!

For heavens sake, WAKE UP!!! A simple search gave me this little gem.

Now just stop believing all this lying advertising, I won't be there to wipe your noses every time. Check these offers, it's easy, then even if they seem ok, forget it. Nobody will do cheap on the internet, and survive in business.

Thanks oilman for that!!!! It didnt look quite right when I saw it and since then I have found a local advert for Atlantic Coast Kitchens - Cornwall's New Kitchen Company with exactly the same photo on it as their website. I wonder who is behind this?

if it seems to good to be true, thats because it usually is
caveat emptor

Nice bit of research. If this guy was imprisoned in 2003 for breaching the consumer regulation act then whats the betting he will be doing the same again now. He must think that the money he makes out of it is worth the risk of prison.

was the company not on watchdog a while back where matt alwright turned up in a tank the premises was a disused massive factory or similar i think.the boss was a complete idiot.

Nice bit of research.

You can find that even on it's own web site, scroll down to TERMS

I'm surprised he dares to publicise his name like that, people may remember him.

 

[leeturne]

Far as I know he's been banned from running any more companies or more specifically being a director.http://www.manchesteronline.co.uk/men/news/s/162/162551_business_ban_for_kitchen_rogue.html

Unbelievable, let's hope he gets what he deserves.
