Gorenje (kitchen appliances) - anybody used their stuff?

I'm in the process of buying a new kitchen, and have found the Gorenje range - I'd never heard of them, but the prices seem good, with decent features and design. As far as I can tell they've been a manufacturer for other brands for a while but are fairly new to the consumer market themselves.

Has anyone used them? What do you think of the build quality etc?

I'm not necessarily expecting them to be top of the line, but if they can hold their own with mid-range kit, I'll be happy enough for the price.

    For what it's worth, when we bought our current house 15 years ago it had a Hygena kitchen with a built-in tall Gorenje fridge (only learned this from the label). It had been in around 3 years then. The compressor failed 5 years ago (so 13 years service) and the new replacement fridge I bought from a local kitchen place was also a Gorenje unit - in fact it was an exact drop-in replacement, it hadn't changed at all! That one is still going strong.

    They have been an OEM brand supplied by many kitchen companies over the years.
