Smallbone Kitchen Disaster

We have recently had a Smallbone Kitchen fitted in our flat and it has been a nightmare. The design is great but due to poor fitting and painting they had to remake and refit all the doors and mirrors, sink and plinths and repaint the whole kitchen. It took 4 months instead of 4 weeks and still isn't perfect, we just couldn't stand any more. Luckily we weren't living there, it would not have been possible to.

If you are thinking of having a Smallbone kitchen or you know of anyone who is - my advice is don't!

I have plenty more photos if anyone would like to see.

@JackcharlesDub

That is unfortunate. I have had 2 kitchens designed and built by Smallbone and I have to say they are a work of art and I would highly recommend their craftsmanship. They are one of the best kitchen designers in the world. BTW I live in the USA.
Fishy post if ever I saw one... Do you work for them?

@JackcharlesDub Pardon?

Just think it's curious that you don't appear to have posted before, and have resurrected this zombie thread (slating smallbone) to tell everyone how great your smallbone kitchen is... Not suspicious at all.

Can I ask how it went with the litigation? 42 weeks post instillation with an entirely defective Smallbone kitchen we are about to issue proceedings.

Smallbone pay a lot of money for PR and social media marketing. Money I've paid for my dogsh!t MDF and wafer thin veneer kitchen.
