Anyone had a Square Peg kitchen installed?
CountessDracula · 16/01/2004 15:29
Am thinking of them or Harvey Jones.
Any recommendations welcome

Square Peg quite cheap actually
Willow2 please suggest nice kitchens at a fraction of the price!
CountessDracula · 18/01/2004 19:53
Scuse me Coddy and Willow, why is that posh? It's just the kitchen shop at the top of my road so I walk past it every day (HJ that is) Square Peg seem to be cheaper by a fair way.
I did say Harvey JONES not NICHOLS FFS
CountessDracula · 19/01/2004 10:54
Apparantly it does!
And very beautiful it is too - one of the reasons why I liked them was how nice yours looks.
Obv willow and coddy have kitchens made from cardboard boxes or something

don't be embarrassed, cd, say it out loud, i'm posh and i'm proud
CountessDracula · 19/01/2004 11:01
Ah but my argument is that it isn't posh. If I were having say a Smallbone kitchen THAT may be posh (or may just be a bit footballers wives? Dunno) But these are not REALLY posh kitchens, are they Bettys?
CountessDracula · 19/01/2004 11:12
I agree Bettys, definitely.
So just discerning, not posh?
CountessDracula · 19/01/2004 11:20
So, back to my original question, I guess none of you have a Square Peg kitchen?
aloha · 19/01/2004 11:58
I believe that kitchens made of cardboard boxes are the very latest thing in Hoxton.
princesspeahead · 19/01/2004 13:02
how about underlit glass worktops on a varnished marine ply base? or you could go for a brutalised unfinished cast concrete look...
heehee. sorry. square peg is a silly name though, I'd go for the harvey nichols one.
hoxtonchick · 19/01/2004 13:13
hoxton, who said hoxton?? (our kitchen's from ikea so definitely not posh enough for this thread )
Joso · 19/01/2004 13:32
currently having a b&q kitchen fitted so i must be the unposhest person on planet posh.
CountessDracula · 19/01/2004 21:35
Oi princess dimbo it's JONES!
Well the square peg ones look nice, we are thinking of something like this style as is uncontroversial so won't adversly affect resale of house.
The HJ version is more spenny but looks similar
CountessDracula · 19/01/2004 21:42
And the whole thing in the picture only costs 8k which is pretty reasonable IMHO
WSM · 19/01/2004 21:47
Nice, my Mum has set aside £30k for her new one... Daft amount to spend on a bloody kitchen if you ask me.
CountessDracula · 19/01/2004 21:48
PPH you may laugh at these avant garde kitchens but one of dd's godmother's dh designed this one and we are hoping he's not going to intervene in ours! Not that I don't like it, just not for me!!
