Anyone had one of these? Is the planner accurate? I'm scared of actually ordering just Incase it doesn't actually fit as it's going by our measurements!

I tried the planner but soon gave up and used karen at oneplan instead as she's got years of design experience and I didn't want to make a costly mistake. Sent them (DIYKITCHENS) the finished pdf plans and perspectives and they used the item list to create a quote then and order. Was all very easy .
I Like the kitchen ( was for one of my rentals ) it's a Stanbury in Cashmere.

I did it myself, but measured and remeasured the space and checked item dimensions, and then rechecked more than once, and just used the planner to put it together, see how it all looked etc.
They might have updated it (I ordered last summer) but once I'd decided exactly what I wanted I then had to go back to the website and order all the items I wanted - it wasn't linked to the planner.

Thanks for the replies. Yes I've seen a lot about Karen at one plan but can't really afford any extras if I'm honest so Gona have to brave it myself!
The planner does automatically add in plinths etc for you so that's quite good as I would've 100% forgot things like that!

I think I might just have to go for it once I have the final measurements of the room, it's coming up cheaper than what the big kitchen places will cost and that's including some appliances

we used the DIY planner and as other people have said measure, measure and measure again right down to the smallest millimetre and be absolutely sure of which cupboard you want and where before you submit your order when you get to this stage it does add end panels and plinths automatically go through the order list carefully and work out if you need all of them, ours added two end panels for top cupboards that are going in corners against the walls so didnt need those, and because we are having our fridge freezer at the end of a run it added two big end panels which were £200 each so we took those off, you have to email your plans to them and they check it for you tweak anything not quite right and submit that back to you with the price quote before you pay and order they are very good, and our savings on wickes price has almost paid for the tradesmen we needed
