Have been looking into new kitchens and particularly gloss handleless German ones, hacker and Pronorm in particular, however when looking at the kitchens closely I am fairly underwhelmed by the horizontal flex in the likes of the pan drawers which don’t seem all that great, the overall cost is coming in about £25k but that includes a lot of money in Neff appliances, granite worktops etc
Now maybe naively but for £25k I was really expecting some fantastic quality here, in the units, am I missing something, are they just bog standard chipboard/mdf, all the moneys in the trim/unit fronts?

I know about the top end stuff but the budgets pretty fixed, and that’s with a battle as there’s all sorts of other work going on which is growing arms and legs.

For budgets like that what’s the best in terms of quality and design, or is that just the relaity within the budget?

cheers
