Cheap kitchens

Hi
In the market for quite a large new kitchen due to extension . Want to do it as reasonable as possible and am about to purchase from B&Q . I have seen a place called cheap kitchens advertised on social media and claiming to give an 50 per cent discount on any quotes. I have made an appt but am wondering if any one has had any experience of them ? I was also wondering about delivery times ? Any advice would be appreciated re the company or regarding recommendations. Thanks

    If it's the 'cheap kitchens' that keep advertising here ......... Don't go near them.

    This months Which has covered this.
    Their best buys are Ikea and John Lewis.

    Cant imagine which one is cheapest.

    Don't buy a cheap kitchen from B&Q unless you want shelves that don't fit to the cupboard and backs which pop out. Cheap and value for money isn't the same thing. ;)

    We are fitting an Ikea kitchen just now. Cost £2.5k not including fitting or worktop or appliances which we sourced elsewhere.
    Really solid units. And it looks great so far.
