How do Bauformat Kitchens compare to other German brands?
German kitchens have an excellent reputation, and it is well deserved. The standard is high, but there are so many brands it can be difficult to know which ones to look at. One of these brands are Bauformat Kitchens.
How do Bauformat compare with the rest in terms of price and quality and are there better-value brands available?
How do Bauformat Kitchens compare in quality to other German brands?
Most German kitchens are higher-quality than the kitchens sold by places like Howdens, Wren, Wickes, and Magnet. However, this doesn’t mean that all German kitchens are the same quality, they’re not. German kitchen differ in quality.
An example of the quality difference between brands are the cross beams. These are also sometimes referred to as the cross bars. Cross beams are the supports that run across the top of the unit and give the unit it’s strength and durability. Bauformat Kitchens have high-quality wooden cross beams. In contrast, lower-quality German brands have chipboard cross beams.
Below are what cross beams look like.
The thickness of the shelves is another quality difference. Bauformat Kitchens have 19mm thick shelves for enhanced support. In contrast, lower-quality German brands have 16mm thick shelves.
One area that Bauformat fall down on are their backs. Bauformat kitchens have 4mm thick hard board backs. In contrast, higher-quality German brands have 8mm thick solid backs for enhanced strength and durability.
Bauformat Kitchens also fall down on the number of interior cabinet colours they offer. Bauformat only offer 6 interior cabinet colours to choose from. This means that it’s unlikely that you’ll be able to have the same colour on the inside of the cabinet that you have on the outside. In contrast, some German brands offer a choice of up to 30 interior cabinet colours. Having a larger choice of interior cabinet colours means there’s a high chance you’ll be able to have the same colour on the inside of your kitchen that you have on the outside. Matching the inside colour of your kitchen with the outside gives a more coordinated, seamless look.
