Hi there
I'm after a bit of help please.
I'm getting a new kitchen (from ikea) but need to deck it out with appliances
- Built in oven
- Built in microwave
- Integrated dishwasher
- Hob
- Hood
- integrated fridge and freezer
Any tips on what's reasonable price and good quality and where is best value.
Best I could see so far is either kitchenscience.co.uk or the high street stores e.g. Argos, Sainsburys
Thanks

I just a delivery today from appliancesdirect.co.uk
They had some good deals on the discontinued Neff appliances. Phone up and speak to David.0 -
I'm gonna agree with cally1, you can get some absolute bargains on the old model Neff appliances if you shop around...If it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, we have at least to consider the possibility that we have a small aquatic bird of the family anatidae on our hands

You could have a look at the reviews on a load of products on http://www.reevoo.com/
also if you do decide to get something from appliances direct you get 3% back on quidco0 -
Hi
It can be done cheap, depending on whether you want expensive appliances or not. I am on my own, but wanted all integrated appliances, but accepted I couldn;'t afford top of the range stuff. Key is just shop around. Here is what I have just bought if that helps:
Got the following:- Glass stainless steel hood from Netto - £60
- Integrated Under Counter Fridge, Freezer (Fridgemaster) and IWME12 Washing Machine (look on Argos website and they are the cheapest), got them all for £612.72 as I bought them on Homebase website on their 10% off day (also got about £7 cashback through Quidco, and Nectar Points).
- Got Delonghi Built Under Double Oven for £250 (was £350 on Comet website) but went to Comet Clearance and got one that was box damaged.
- Got 'gas on glass' black baumatic hob through appliance bargains for just short of £160.

Can someone point me in the direction of 'scratch and dent' sites please, never heard of them.0

hi there
I'm glad to see this thread. My less than 4 year ld znaussi built in fridge that I bought at great cost thinking it would be reliable has done the 'gas' leak thing, it makes a noise, but no refridgeration...grrrr!
I am at the end of my tether now; do I buy a good brand again, going into debt to do so, and risk more disappointment or go for that Argos fridgemaster one which, frankly, is at least £100 cheaper than any others I 've seeen?
I'm thinking Argos....any comments would be greatly appreciated!
x thanks x

Hi Clara
I just ordered the Fridgemaster MTBL140 Fridgemaster Fridge and Freezer which were in the old Argos catalogue at £176, but I went through Homebase when they were giving 10% off everything. Ironically, the same fridge and freezer in the new catalogue is more expensive so the price has gone up. The fridge is now £199.99 and the freezer just over £215. I had them delivered the other day, Argos delivered them them and really pleased, even offered to unpack them and place them where I wanted them. They look OK and the same as more expensive models I saw in stores like Comet, etc.. I think you may find the price is now nearer £200.0 -
Did place an order with appliancesdirect & ho hum! the dishwasher that was such a great price, 2 days before delivery is suddenly discontinued
, i only found this out as i was enquiring when my delivery would arrive......all my appliances are meant to be stainless steel & they don't have anymore
waiting for the sales manager Jason to call me, will update.......!No one said it was gonna be easy!0
