Great kitchen

Hollie, our kitchen designer was incredibly helpful. Having designed what we thought we wanted, it became clear that our new kitchen didn’t quite work, so she quickly redesigned it for us and it’s absolutely great.
We had one or two minor issues with the order - always to be expected with a job that size- but communication between Howdens and our fitters was excellent and the issues were resolved very quickly.
All in all, we couldn’t be happier with our new kitchen.

I would recommend Howdens Southsea

I would recommend Howdens Southsea. Hollie provided an excellent professional service. She was very helpful, listening to my ideas and suggesting how these could work. The demonstrations in the showroom really helped me to make my final decisions on what to order. Very happy with my new kitchen. Very happy with the Lamona white goods supplied.

New kitchen and Extension Flooring

Hollie and the team at Howden's provided a fantastic service for our new kitchen. Hollie was very responsive and was able to quickly change plans to suit our needs and get new pictures drawn up quickly. The end result was a beutiful kitchen and great value for money.

I have been supplied with damaged goods in my kitchen and ultimately neither the tradesman or Howdens take responsibility.

If you want a company to take responsibility, buy the kitchen yourself from anyone other than Howdens.

Simply Excellent!

Dave, Craig, and the team, were organised, responsive and tremendously proactive in assisting us to deliver 35 kitchen upgrades to our Southsea project; The support we received was excellent.

Nothing was ever too much trouble and we cannot thank them enough.

Keeping 35 residents happy during this type of project is rarely trouble-free. This project was!

Hollie Is Outstanding

Hollie is outstanding.
We went to few different kitchen places and met with a few different planners, including other Howdens branches, to plan our new kitchen extension. Hollie at Southsea was by far the most outstanding from the very first meeting. Genuinely helpful, attentive and interested in the overall look we were hoping to achieve without rushing. She actually managed to make what originally seemed like a nightmare a pleasant experience. Lots of ideas, and most importantly able to incorporate our own ideas, into what turned out to be perfect. If you want someone who actually wants to provide a service, with care, patience and attention to detail then I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending her to anyone I know.
