Dear Greg
Sorry to be so long getting back to you with our kitchen photos and comments. We have been extremely busy, but living with the kitchen for a while gives us the opportunity to make fuller observations.
First let me say how helpful everyone was that we came into contact with. We knew what we wanted the layout to be and that we wanted handle-less doors to give a sleeker look, that didn't date. Searching for these doors led us to the Supply Only Kitchen website and Parapan.
Our family have lived in our home for 48 years and we wanted a kitchen that would last for many years. We had strong ideas on what we wanted; your designer was very helpful. He suggested that we have our units sized to suite the space making every space usable. A big advantage of using the company was that they only charge for the material used, so we only paid for 50mm worth of material extra instead of a 'bespoke special'.
We started with a very small kitchen, by knocking down a wall and incorporating the space from the WC we have made a very user friendly kitchen. When we ordered the kitchen we had not carried out the demolition work and didn't have the exact measurements the company were very patient allowing us to have flexibility right up to the manufacturing point.
We were concerned at having to pay the full amount so far in advance (Parapan has a much longer order time), but accepted the assurances of the company. Our fears proved to be unfounded. The units were delivered by a couple of very polite men, who placed the units exactly where I asked them. The units came ready assembled with the mechanical fitments installed and the doors on saving a lot of time.
Our experience over the last months is that having units the size and shape we wanted means that everything fits into its allotted space. Everything is to hand. We are absolutly delighted, all our friends and family love it and we know it will last a very long time, and would thoroughly recomend the company.
Many thanks for all your help.
Kind regards
