Howdens kitchen / almond sinks

Hi all,

I've read a number of reviews about Howdens and the Latona appliances and they have been a massive help, so thank you to all for that.

The one thing that I can't find much information on are the Latona sinks and taps. Has anyone got any thoughts or experience on them? We are looking to buy the 1.5 composite sink in black. Have found one in screw fix (different brand) with a really good write up but would like to know if paying the extra is a good idea as this kitchen is already adding up!

Thanks in advance :)

Any help would be appreciated.

    They'll be fine. It's the electrical products that people don't have faith in - getting things serviced etc is a problem and better value is available elsewhere with trusted brand names.

    We've installed many Howdens sinks and taps without problem.

    Agree. With sinks you get what you pay for generally. Howdens are the same as any supplier in this regard.

    If you pay £30 for a stainless steel sink, the steel will be so thin it will wobble if you move the tap. Pay more and you will get thicker steel and deeper bowls.

    There comes a point at about £200 where you start paying for brand name or style over actual quality.

    This as true of Howdens as of anyone else.
