Howdens kitchen - Chelford Ivory
We just changed our kitchen and decided to get a Howdens kitchen - Chelford Ivory. The cabinets are a great quality and they fit a lot of things, much more than our previous kitchen! We had a great service from Howdens Colindale and Marie was absolutely amazing! The kitchen got delivered really quickly and we had lots of help and support for its installation.

Good afternoon Daniela, thank you for leaving a 5* review. We're sure that the team at the Colindale depot will be pleased to read this. Best wishes, Alan.
Good products but poor service
Here is the summary of our interaction with Howdens Colindale
- Poor customer service
- Good product quality
- Difficulty in obtaining modern service
- Inconvenient return process
- Communication issues
- Wrong items delivered
- Lack of apology for mistakes
- Poor communication within company
- Items returned (signed) but no acknowledgement, records, or return
Lastly, one good thing about working with Howdens is that their employees seem to be on a never-ending holiday spree. Every time I call, they nonchalantly inform me that the guy I need to speak to is off on yet another vacation, and I should try calling back once he's back from his latest adventure. It's like playing a game of Where in the World is Howdens' Employee?

Rude and insulting staff
I have been negotiating a price for a new kitchen as the price they quoted was more expensive than my previous order. My contracted builders were offered a cheaper quote, so when I asked for the same quote I was told by a rude woman that my account had been closed as I had not ordered within 15 months and “if you order is 5k and not 60k the discount would not be as good!”.

Hello, Thanks for reviewing our Howdens – Colindale depot. Have a lovely day! Tash.
Excellent design service
Fine tuning and detailing the most expensive room in your house takes quite a bit of time, however in terms of design and knowledge our designer Raj impressed us no end with his knowledge (and patience!)
On the initial site meeting, he gave us a multitude of solutions and suggestions for quite a few features and details we wanted - which other companies had overlooked or rushed.
I chose Howdens over other manufacturers as I've used them on and off for many years and felt reassured by the product lines in terms of quality and long lasting availability (for changes in the future),
A very decent company indeed.
Well done Raj and Howdens, can't wait to see the end product!
