I used Classic Kitchens for my new kitchen, as I wanted lots of bespoke features I had found on different websites. I struggled to find anyone to do this, but CKD took it all in their stride and did everything I wanted and more. The reaction of people that come into my kitchen is always the same now - they just stop and say Wow..... I love it

I needed a new kitchen as part of a house extension, and wanted something above the usual mass market kitchen suppliers. I looked at a couple of central London showrooms, but the cost / value ratio didn't match. After some long nights searching the internet, I discovered Classic Kitchens Direct (CKD). I sent off my plans to Alan, and over a few weeks (and a showroom visit) we tweaked the design to meet my (slightly) demanding specification and budget. Throughout the process, CKD were incredibly helpful, and gave valuable suggestions along they way. I supplied my own measurements. I asked for a couple of bespoke items which they were more than happy to accommodate - another differentiator where similar competitors were not so obliging. The kitchen itself is fantastic - I genuinely could not be happier. The quality of the units and workmanship is outstanding - and the little touches I asked for have greatly enhanced the overall feel. The installation process had a couple of small issues, but these were sorted quickly and the units were installed on time and exactly as expected. We decided to go for primed, and the decorators had no issue finishing off the units with the colour / paint we wanted. All in all, I have no hesitation in recommending CKD, and have already done so to friends and family.

We want to thank Alan and Martin for their support in making our dream kitchen a reality. Martin has been very patient in supporting us from very beginning with design element and product selection through multiple iterations. Unlike major Kitchen retailers, we always felt valued and listened to as we discussed our ideas and plans, even after the order was placed. We were very specific about our requirements and brought a lot of different design ideas together. Their attention to details and pride they take in ensuring they deliver exactly what we, as customer, wanted was instrumental in our decision to go with their service. Finally, when we had the kitchen delivered, any teething issue was dealt with by Alan promptly and to our full satisfaction. Thank you both.

We spent a lot of time researching Kitchen companies and wanted a bespoke modern Kitchen. The team in Christchurch (Terry and Alan) were brilliant and helped us with our design, and were always available to talk. The quality of the cabinets (including dovetail joins, solid wood etc) are simply superb and we could not be happier with the outcome especially considering the price. I cannot recommend them high enough…..

Elite kitchens supplied kitchen units for a large and a small kitchen. We selected Elite as we could see the product was of a very high standard and of particular note the drawers were wood construction with dovetail craftsmen built joints. When the goods were delivered - already built - we realised that these are no mass built units from abroad but have been lovingly constructed in a relatively small workshop. One of the craftsmen delivered and we learned a lot! Each unit was built to order for us. Once our kitchens were under way we needed some variation as there were awkward spaces so we asked Elite to build us some special non standard doors which allowed our carpenter to be creative with the washing machine and boiler spaces. They built the doors quickly and delivered so as not to hold the project up. We bought the tulip wood primed but not painted and finished on site. We used Farrow and Ball paint and the finish is truly professional and quite magnificent. You might be disappointed to see the units when they arrive in their raw state but you can have no idea as to how brilliantly they "paint up." This is a craft built high end kitchen yet the price was competitive to the extent it came in quite a bit cheaper than its main competitors. We also priced up Howdens even using builder's discount and this kitchen was no different in price. I highly recommend this company to work with and this kitchen especially.

After visiting retailers like Neptune we realised that you pay a lot for the name and actually there was a lot of inflexibility with the design and budget. So after some research we found Classic Kitchens on the internet and what a find! The customer service was second to none and Alan and the team always made time for my questions and requests no matter how small. Our finished kitchen is stunning, so happy with the quality and never thought I would have such a gorgeous kitchen for the price. Would never hesitate in recommending them - thank you!

I found Classic Kitchens-direct on the web. They provided a painting service that wasn't available with the other online company. I used the other reviews and recommendations to help me decide. They provide handmade oak kitchens that you can't buy from the usual retailers but for a price that you couldn't get a bespoke kitchen for elsewhere. They were very helpful and the process went very smoothly. You can do all the work yourself but Alan and the team will support you completely. When it comes to the finishing touches they couldn't be more helpful and nothing was too much trouble. If you are looking for a handmade shaker with wonderful oak interiors and draw boxes, don't look anywhere else.

Terry and Alan were very helpful in the design process although I chose what I wanted they were able to adjust all the measurements to fit our space. The kitchen is of very good quality and looks beautiful. We are very happy with it and it was very good value for a bespoke kitchen
