How do Rotpunkt Kitchens compare to other German brands?
You will want the best you can afford in a new kitchen, and that often means a German kitchen. Rotpunkt Kitchens are a German brand sold mostly via independent kitchen showrooms.
So, how do Rotpunkt Kitchens compare in price and quality to the other German brands?
How do Rotpunkt Kitchens compare in quality to other German brands?
It’s important to understand that most German kitchen brands are higher-quality than the kitchens you’ll find in places like Howdens, Wren, Magnet and Wickes.
However, this doesn’t mean that they are all the same quality. Nothing can be further from the truth. German kitchens differ in quality.
Why are Rotpunkt kitchens higher-quality than many other brands?
One of the quality difference between brands are the unit supports. These are also known as cross beams or cross bars. These give the unit it’s strength and durability.
Rotpunkt kitchens come with high-quality wooden cross beams. In contrast, some brands come with lower-quality chipboard cross beams.
Below are what cross beams look like.
Another difference are the backs of the units. Rotpunkt Kitchens benefit from having 8mm thick solid backs for enhanced strength and durability. In contrast, many other brands offer lower-quality 3, 4 or 5mm thick hardboard backs.
Another difference you’ll find is the shelves. Rotpunkt’s shelves are 19mm thick. In contrast, many other brands come with less durable 16mm shelves.
Although Rotpunkt Kitchens come with 19mm thick shelves, the sides of their cabinets are still only 16mm thick. Only 3 German kitchen brands offer 19mm thick shelves & sides. 2 of these brands are no more expensive than Rotpunkt.
The other benefit of choosing a Rotpunkt Kitchen is that they offer a choice of around 30 different interior cabinet colours to choose from. Therefore, you’re usually always able to match the outside colour of your kitchen with the inside. In contrast, many other German brands only offer 1, 2, 3 or 4 interior colour choices. If you choose one of these brands, it’s rare that you’ll be able to co-ordinate the outside colour of your kitchen with the inside.
How do Rotpunkt Kitchens compare in price to other German brands?
German kitchens differ substantially in price. Therefore, some brands cost as little as places places like Howdens, Wren and Wickes, whereas others can cost up to 3 or 4 times the price of those places.
Rotpunkt Kitchens start at about 30-40% more than places like Howdens, Wren and Wickes.
