How do Chippendale Kitchens compare with other kitchen brands?
If you are planning a new kitchen, there are two questions you need answered. Is the brand you have chosen high quality, and is it within your budget?
One of the brands you might be looking at is Chippendale Kitchens. Chippendale Kitchens have a good reputation. However, how do they compare with other kitchen brands?
How do Chippendale Kitchens compare with the high-street chains and trade-only suppliers?
How do they compare in price?
For many people, the most obvious starting point in their search for a kitchen would be the big high-street chains. After all, they are convenient — there is probably one near you — and the names are reassuringly familiar.
Alternatively, if you are feeling more adventurous, you might go through a local builder who could access the trade-only suppliers.
As far as price is concerned, in fact, there is very little to choose between these. Chippendale Kitchens cost around the same as the options offered by the high-street chains and trade-only suppliers.
How do they compare in quality?
Although the prices are similar, it is a very different matter when it comes to quality. Chippendale Kitchens represent a big step-up in quality from the high-street chains and trade-only suppliers and will last a good deal longer.
This is largely due to the quality of the materials they’re made from. For example, the carcasses are made out of higher-quality chipboard than what the chains and trade-only suppliers use. This means that, unlike the chains’, Chippendale Kitchens’ carcasses won’t bow under the weight of the worktops.
It is the same story when it comes to the finish of the doors. Unlike the low-quality finishes used by the chains and trade-only suppliers, Chippendale’s doors will be made from high-quality materials. Therefore, they won’t peel like the doors from the chains and trade-only suppliers will.
How do they compare with other brands sold by independent kitchen showrooms?
How do they compare in price?
Chippendale Kitchens are sold mainly by independent showrooms, although a few builders’ merchants also supply them. They are one of many kitchen brands sold by the independents —so how do they compare in price?
There is a wide range of prices in the brands sold by the independents. So, some cost less than Chippendale, some cost similar and some cost more.
How do they compare in quality?
The same can be said about quality too. Therefore, some brands sold by independents are lower quality than Chippendale, some similar quality and others higher quality. So, for example, Chippendale kitchens are flat-pack. In contrast, many others brands sold by independents are factory assembled/rigid.
Factory assembled/rigid kitchens offer three advantages over flat-pack kitchens. Firstly they cost less to install as you don’t have to pay a fitter to assemble the units. Secondly, they reduce the time it takes to install the kitchen & therefore minimises disruption. Thirdly, they don’t have unsightly metal fixings under the wall units like flat pack kitchens do.
Plus, many of the brands that are factory assembled/rigid are no more expensive than Chippendale’s flat pack kitchens.
