Should you buy FENIX worktops?
FENIX worktops have a good reputation. But do they live up to it?
Reasons to buy FENIX worktops:
Durability
Kitchen worktops come in for a good deal of battering with use, and they are particularly at risk of scratching. Compared to some other materials, FENIX worktops are highly resistant to scratching. This means they should last longer than average before they need to be replaced.
Stain resistant
They are also non porous, so they do not absorb liquids. This means that spillages will remain on the surface to be wiped up and should not stain the worktop. This is not just a matter of look, though. It also means that the surface can be thoroughly cleaned, making it much more hygienic than most worktops.
Finish
Besides the practical advantages, you want your kitchen worktops to be pleasant, both to the eyes and to the fingers. FENIX worktops have a silky-smooth finish, which will be a pleasure to work on.
Seamless look
Ideally, you’ll want your worktops to match with your units. This is not possible with the laminate worktops you buy from places like Howdens, Wren or Magnet, or with quartz or granite worktops. However, this is possible with FENIX.
Some showrooms that sell German or Italian kitchen offer FENIX kitchens. The benefit of buying a FENIX kitchen with FENIX worktops is that your worktops will be an identical match to your kitchen. Below is a picture of a FENIX kitchen with FENIX worktops.
Although you can’t achieve a seamless look with the laminate worktops you’ll find in places like Howdens, Wren or Magnet, you can achieve it with the laminate worktops you’ll find in some independent kitchen showrooms. Most showrooms that sell German or Italian kitchens offer laminate worktops that are an identical match to their kitchens.
The other advantage of buying a German or Italian kitchen is that it will be much higher-quality than a kitchen you’ll get from somewhere like Howdens, Wren or Magnet. Therefore, your kitchen will last a lot longer.
Plus, some German and Italian kitchen brands cost similar to places like Howdens, Wren and Magnet. If you’d like to find out who the best suppliers of these brands are in your area, contact us and we’ll tell you who they are. Plus, our service is free.
Reasons not to buy them:
Less scratch resistant than high-quality laminate worktops
Although FENIX worktops are more scratch resistant than the laminate worktops you’ll find in places like Howdens, Wren and Magnet, they are less scratch resistant than the laminate worktops you’ll find in showrooms that sell German or Italian kitchens. The laminate worktops you’ll find in showrooms that sell German or Italian kitchens are much more durable than the laminate worktops places like Howdens, Wren and Magnet sell.
Cost
FENIX worktops cost more than laminate worktops.
Limited colour choice
Whereas laminate worktops come in literally hundreds of different colours and finishes, the colour choice for FENIX worktops is much more limited.
This means that you may have to settle for a colour that is not exactly what you wanted.
Our free service recommends the best value kitchen showrooms in your area. Their kitchens cost similar to places like Howdens, Wren and Magnet, but are higher-quality.
