Thanks 😊
I love our wren white units, what 8 love even more is i did all this without help

This was what i had to work with





This is what we ended up with












The black/carbon grey units are DIY kitchens nowhere near as good quality, and i had these specially made to sizes they cost nearly as much as the white kitchen units.
Pro's
well made 18months in no problems we use glass cleaner and microfibre cloth
All went together no issues NB:- lay everything out before finalizing.
The guy that designed it was great very helpfull and the only problem we did have he resolved (i added an insulation board and moved the boiler which threw the kitchen out 50mm) and 50mm in a kitchen as small as ours was huge.
We went with the quartz work top, love this so much. The guy that twmplated it asked all the right questions and made some great recommendations, my dad who has always worked in the building trade bohoo'd some of his advises, until the worktop was fitted and dad agreed his sugestions were the right ones.
Con's
Wren? none
Cda extractor is crap never again had it fixed twice
wouldnt buy anything from diy kitchens again the build quality between the 2 is night and day.

Advises:- square and level, make sure if you are doing the fitting make sure your units arnt just level but square this helps when adjusting the doors, i took 2 days fitting and making sure i was square i never adjusted any doors they are perfect.

Sorry for all the pic's , so prode of my achievement and result 👍

Good luck.

Colin
