I am so annoyed because I think I may have to compromise our new kitchen
because MFI cannot supply kitchen worktops in lengths greater than 3m.

I have just today ordered one of MFI's top of the range sinks, a Franke
Divida in Slate Grey (a colour only available through MFI), and today
went
back to MFI to assess which worktop would look best with it. The idea to
have a black / dark grey worktop to blend in with the dark sink and
flush
fitting ceramic hob.

To our amazement the MFI Black Ebony Style worktop is an exact match for
the
sink, so much so that to two will look as one. Very nice thought 'err
indoors. However the new kitchen needs a continuous run of worktop of
3.1m
and any joint along a continues length would look awful. BUT the MFI
muppet
was adamant that 3m is the maximum length available, and even a special
order cannot be considered.

So does anyone know who manufactures worktops for MFI, and I can then
make
a
vain attempt to talk to the manufacturer directly.

Any help advice or information gratefully received, as I'm so pee'd off
that
I have to compromise the kitchen, by either scraping two new Ikea
cabinets
in lieu of 10cm shorter ones and upsetting the symmetry of the kitchen
or
having a different, less visually appealing worktop.



When I was looking for a cheaper alternative to a MFI supplied surface I
was
told by a kitchen installer recently that Howdens in Shrewsbury supply
surfaces & kitchens to MFI. Their telephone number is 01743 460067.
Dunno
if they are based anywhere else though.
