How do Sachsenküchen kitchens compare to other brands?
Sachsenküchen is a German kitchen brand, which is sold in the UK by independent kitchen showrooms. But just how good value are Sachsenküchen kitchens?
To know this, it’s necessary to compare them with other brands sold by independents. At the same time, how do they compare to kitchens sold by the large chains and trade-only suppliers. These are familiar brands such as Wren, Wickes, Magnet, Howdens and Benchmarx.
How do Sachsenküchen kitchens compare to the chains and trade-only suppliers?
Chances are that your first thought, if you need a new kitchen, won’t be Sachsenküchen. Instead, you’re likely to think of one of the large, well-known high-street chains. After all, suppliers like Wickes, Magnet and Wren are everywhere, and their advertisements always tell us they’re the best.
Alternatively, you might go through a builder, who can access trade-only suppliers like Howdens or Benchmarx.
But how do any of these compare in price and quality to Sachsenküchen Kitchens?
In terms of quality, the chains and trade-only suppliers are much lower-quality, meaning the kitchen won’t last nearly as long. For example, they use cheap, low-density chipboard for their carcasses, so they quickly start to bow under the worktops’ weight. Sachsenküchen Kitchens, on the other hand, uses high-quality, high-density chipboard — and that will never bow, even with heavy worktops.
In the same way, the chains & trade-only supplies mainly sell low-quality wrapped-type doors, and it won’t be long before they start peeling. Sachsenküchen, by contrast, mainly use high-quality laminate, lacquered laminate or lacquered doors, which don’t peel at all.
It’s hardly surprising, given this difference in quality, that a Sachsenküchen kitchen costs more than one from the chains or trade-only suppliers. On the other hand, it’s likely to still be going strong after you’ve had to replace an inferior one. Perhaps even after you’ve had to replace the replacement. This means that, in the long run, a Sachsenküchen Kitchen is a more economical option.
How do Sachsenküchen kitchens compare with other brands sold by independent kitchen showrooms?
Besides Sachsenküchen, there’s a wide range of kitchen brands available through independents, and their quality varies considerably. A good many are comparable to Sachsenküchen, but some aren’t much better than the chains and trade-only suppliers. There are also brands, however, that are higher-quality than Sachsenküchen.
And it’s the same story when it comes to the price. So, some brands cost more than Sachsenküchen, some similar and some less.
