Very Cheap 5 Unit Kitchen Needed please!

Hi
Need to replace an exisiting kitchen for a house that I plan to let. There's already a kitchen fitted, and its a small space, so going to use the same size and amount of units. There are 5 units in total. I also need around 5m of 28mm worktop. I'm not at all concerned about the design, just needs to be fit for purpose. Ideally dont want to buy second hand; most of the used ones in my area are several years old, and dont want to risk getting one that'll fall apart in a few months!
Please help me find one kind MSE'ERS!
Already looked at Wickes and the cheapest kitchen there would be £307, want to find one cheaper if possible!
The units I need
Hi

2 x 1000mm wall units
3 x 1000mm base units
1 x 300mm wall unit
5m of 28mm worktops

TIA

    Hi Shanelle,

    Hope it is not the Miami door from Wickes that you have the price on. Yes it is cheap but it is a false economy. Work for Wickes and would not recommend it to my own worst enemy. Tenants will destroy it in no time, the door quality is terrible. Pay a few quid more and buy the Galway, it should last much longer.

    Other than that try somewhere like Selco Builders Warehouse or similar, or Ebay. You might fid you can pick up some really good quality second hand units for peanuts. You would still need to buy new worktops though.

    Both Howdens and Magnet Trade do a 'Contract' Kitchen.

    Very basic doors but with the quality of a pre assembled rigid carcass.
