Cheap & Cheerful kitchen units, etc.
Looking for someplace local to me (or mail order via tinerweb!) where I
can ge some cheap & cheerful carcases, doors & a worktop - nothing fancy at all, this is for some storag espace, and a workbench for working on & assembling lightweight computery type stuff - I'm thinking of 2 double carcases + doors and 4m of kitchen top on top of it. Nothing fancy! I'm in South Devon near Totnes if that helps. Already found http://www.121tradedirect.co.uk/ online - anyone used them? Cheers, Gordon |

Howdens do a 8 unit kitchen for £200, with 3 metre worktops an extra £35. All units are available singly, they just give a price comparsion for an 8 unit kitchen. They are trade only, so you'll need to find someone with a trade account to get them. Wickes also do a budget range - Miami. Get the pdf price list he http://www.wickes.co.uk/content/ebiz...ges/pdf/TAKitc hensPriceList.pdf Alan. -- To reply by e-mail, change the ' + ' to 'plus'. |

Freecycle often has people getting rid of old units for free after having nice new kitchens put in. My garage, for instance, has nice solid oak doors on chipboard carcasses ;-) It depends how fussy you are and how much you're prepared to tinker to keep the cost down. And how urgent you are for it as well, obviously.. |

My local Wickes don't seem to stock that range unforetunately. -- Dave - The Medway Handyman www.medwayhandyman.co.uk |

Just use the word "they" instead of "me" when talking about a project, and you'll be OK ! Simon. |

Thanks, Gordon Yep, its a funny grey area. Several previous posts on it. But sometimes with trade accounts the discounts don't really kick in until you've spent a reasonable amount of cash. So may still be better to get a friendly chippy to get it for you. Simon. |
