Howdens kitchen in seafoam

Does anyone have a Howdens kitchen in seafoam? Love the colour in the brochure but not sure how true to life those pictures are.

My local branch doesn't have seafoam on display. They have mist, which looks very similar to seafoam in the brochure but nothing like it in real life.

If you have seafoam, are you happy with it? Would you be happy to post a picture of your kitchen?

Our local branch had a seafoam sample which looked nice in the shop - I was allowed to take it home for a day. In our house the colour of the sample looked very grey, so we didn't go for it (I don't like grey kitchens, wanted green, went with white with green worktops in the end).
All this to say that I wouldn't trust the website colour nor the sample in the shop, as it will look different in your house depending on lighting etc.
That said if you're after a grey with a greenish tint it may well work for you...

My local Howdens ordered in a sample piece for us to take home and try in different times of day/lighting etc.

Can you ask if them to get samples for you?

Thanks @MoHunter that's very helpful. I am after a light teal/acqua colour so grey with a green tinge doesn't sound great! Bringing a sample home sounds like a good idea, although we are about to start an extension where the kitchen will go so the light will change.

Thanks @Luckycloverz it's good to know that Howdens do this. We have an appointment next week so will ask them to order a sample for us.

I love the Seafoam colour but needed to see it in a bigger size than a sample. We went to the expo centre in Yorkshire. We love it and will be ordering soon

Ooh that's great to know @Bells1976! Thanks for posting the picture. That looks quite close to the brochure colour. We are in Surrey so quite a long way from Yorkshire sadly.

Interested in this… has anyone else got any real life seafoam kitchens to share? Thank you
