Uber furniture kitchen collection

Hello,

I've fallen in love with a kitchen and are hoping to buy shortly :j it's from here, either the Bibury Nero or Anthracite one.

I've done some research on the company and the Whois and other comparisons seems to prove that the company are not the same as kitchens uber/future/who ever else they are trading as. If there are any views on the company or if you have one of these kitchens that would be great, please :) There is a company on eBay that sells them, and the price is competitive to ikea - but offer a wider range of units.

Hope that makes sense, and I hope I'm not about to waste my money on them.

Thank you

    Might be this bunch.

    Uber kitchens get a mention near the end.

    If it's the same company, start running now & keep away from them!

    As far as research has shown they don't seem to be linked, i did a whois and they came up as seperate companies. Uber furniture trade under MGA distributions, and answer the phone that way. They sell the kitchens through kitchen showrooms around the country. I'm going to have a look at one in the next couple of days, so I guess we'll see then. Thank you

    Go to the Companies House web site and enter the company number:

    http://wck2.companieshouse.gov.uk/d965fd821f1ccf58dcbc080951d7541a/compdetails

    They have been going since 1985. You could order a copy of the accounts, which might give you the names of the directors, allowing to to make sure that the crook whose name escapes me is not connected with them.
    Warning: This forum may contain nuts.
  • My name is Bob Gonzalez and I am the Managing Director of MGA Distrributors Limited, the company behind uber furniture. They say that imitation is a form of flattery, but in the case of the rip-off website, kitchensuber.co.uk, it doesn't feel like flattery.

    As others have pointed out, we are a family business that was established by my father in 1969 and we launched the uber furniture brand in 2008. We receive many phone calls from customers who have bought from kitchensuber.co.uk and been completely let down on quality and service. We are nothing to do with this organisation and from the experiences we have been told of, we would not recommend that anyone buys from them.

    If you would like any further information, please feel free to ring us on 01384 638700.
