A young relative is looking to install a low-budget (actually, the lower the
better) run of basic kitchen units, base and wall. Before she starts
looking around, is there a standard recommendation for this sort of thing?
Do the various DIY shed ranges differ all that much in terms of quality and
design? Are there any other sources?

Depending on how much DIY will and skill levels are available don't
ignore the possibility of buying previously used units.
While nobody would like to buy dirty dirt encrusted previously used
units of the day to day kind as sold in the sheds those who pay
several thousands to have a kitchen fitted professionally are often
the very people who can afford to have them changed more frequently
because they want the latest look and before such better made units
are anywhere near being worn out.
Might pay to enquire from any local kitchen fitting firms who deal
with the higher end of the market what they do with units they
remove.
