Kitchen

In terms of the design & sale of the kitchen I would give 1st class service.
In terms of follow on care I would only give 3☆ never able to speak to sales/design team, never able to get past reception, message either on the phone or out of office. Phone calls promised never returned.

Issues with Lok n Store and once delivery organised the swaps not sorted as promised- which means another delivery to wait in for.
This is my 2nd Howdens kitchen and I wouldn't hesitate recomending their products, but I would use another branch to source any items.

Hassle free kitchen purchase

Not very good after nearly 25 years of dealing with Howdens it’s customer loyalty is shocking especially if your a tradesman looking to take my business to a competitor every time materials missing and your invoiced for them and then you argue to sort it out and it’s Howdens mistake not the tradesmen very poor use to be good but not any more plus your always out of pocket with lost time picking up what’s missing your told it’s coming into stock then doesn’t arrive spend more time picking stuff up and you loose time and money not the best anymore 👍

They really lie to their …customers

They told me that they have a 55% sale on , I told Tom the rep that it was a rental property, so I didn't want to spend a lot as tenants damage, the 10 quotes I've had from other companies was between £4000/£4500 and that's supply/fit , Tom is telling me with 55% off the price is over £5000 just for kitchen , I have a small kitchen , Tom's a liar and howdens just lost me buying 3 kitchens of them because I believe or trust them ,when all they want us to rip you and me off ..scam sale

Kitchen incomplete ,units missing

Kitchen incomplete ,units missing, incorrect items sent, and miss sold items which where quoted for. I had to visit the store several times to resolve. The staff member whom I ordered the kitchen off showed complete lack of experience and cost me vital days in time and money. I have been a customer of Howdens for several years and never before experienced such a disappointing service. I will not be using this Howdens again as the matter was still unresolved in the end and myself and the customer are completely unsatisfied with the service provided.
