A++ Bespoke kitchen design by Coco at Wickes Eastbourne

We Would highly recommend Coco and her team at Wickes in Eastbourne. From the design to the finished bespoke kitchen the results were miraculous. We say this genuinely as our kitchen was a few cupboards thrown up and built very poorly. Ours took longer than expected but not because of wickes but we were fixing pipe work etc. and the fitter was very patient. Coco is Professional, experienced, friendly and accommodating, and really listened to our needs. Coco worked tirelessly to make our dream kitchen a reality. Thank you

10 Year kitchen Guarantee

10 Year kitchen Guarantee! Beware !!
Bought a top of the range kitchen, not your off the shelf type number. For the security of a guarantee on the units especially when spending an awful lot of money, and surprise surprise, when the under sink bespoke cupboard shows signs of rust, they won’t replace it!! Suggesting it’s my fault?? Won’t be buying again. Customer service by Macauley was extremely poor. Very quick to take my money and assure me any issues won’t be a problem!
Ps customer service reply below have not contacted me or looked into it!! Honestly go to Howdens trust your instinct !!

Coco Astridge

Your colleague Coco Astridge is the most helpful and understanding person we have dealt with at Wickes.
We’ve spoken to her a couple of times now, about our problems having had a new kitchen fitted by the Hailsham branch.
She completely understood our problem, that no one else could, and told us what we needed to resolve the problem.
Then when we returned a week or so later, she remembered us and enquired if the kitchen was finished.
We told her no and why, we then told her we were looking for new flooring for our kitchen, and straight away she said she would give us a discount, due to all the problems we have had with Wickes, and still aren’t resolved !
We truly regret not using her to design and run the fitting of our new kitchen.
Thank you Coco

Kitchen design

From the minute of walking into the store, home visit, telephone calls until completed installation, Coco, our design consultant, listened to our desires, utilised our space, responded promptly to our questions & rectified our wishes.
We are more than delighted with the service & our new kitchen.

Thank you Coco at Eastbourne

My experience with my sales consultant Coco was fantastic. She came to our house to measure up and swiftly created a plan for us. She is incredibly prompt on replying and always tries to put things right. Not only is Coco great at her job, but she is a lovely person too who is always smiling. The delivery experience with Wickes was not so positive due to items becoming out of stock, but I cannot fault Coco.

Wickes Eastbourne kitchen

The salesman (Rob) at Eastbourne store was very helpful not too pushy but knowledgeable. He came to house and listened to what we required and made plans to our wishes. The delivery and fitting of kitchen was all very good. The kitchen fitter (Paul) was excellent . Would highly recommend wickes for new kitchen.

Great friendly service 👌🏻

I walked in not having a clue what I needed, walked out with the right product, at a great price, with really friendly, helpful and non patronising service. Simple things make me happy as a consumer, these are those!! Steve F and his colleague gave top top service.

Fantastic kitchen fitters (Clem & Lyndsay)

We designed and ordered our kitchen through Wickes. After an initial issue with a kitchen fitter we were allocated Clem, Michael & Lyndsay. They were fantastic from start to finish, very professional, polite and efficient. Even came out to sort a few snagging bits. We are really pleased with our new kitchen, huge thanks to Clem, Michael & Lyndsay.

My new kitchen from Wickes

The design Consultant Colleen Astridge ( Coco) was very helpful in advising me in all aspects of choosing my new kitchen . Coco was very professional and patient as I am a 83 yr old man and made me feel safe and comfortable in the store and on the phone. When the kitchen was completed she visited and helped me with the registration of all the electrical goods.thank you Wickes and Coco .

New bathroom

My bathroom expert at Wickes was Coco. She was professional, knowledgeable and personable. She advised me expertly on design and colour scheme. I have a small bathroom and she has managed to pull the design of my bathroom together so well. Coco was brilliant when I couldn’t get hold of people to finalise dates for delivery and when an item hadn’t turned up she made sure I had the item before the end of the job. Coco has made the whole process seamless and stress free. The end result is amazing. Thank you Coco.

I visit Wickes Eastbourne often

I visit Wickes Eastbourne often, to buy products for work.
On this occasion I visited for several doors of different sizes, without having been able to identify precise product codes online.

Staff were very helpful and patient!allowing me access to the internal PC, pointing out aspects I might want to look for from what was available, and also leaving me time to scroll and select - a great mix of assistance, guidance and letting me choose in my own time.
When my basket was complete, as suggested I called Ben back over and he completed the purchase with delivery arrangements.
This is why I go to Wickes. Treated like an adult in a friendly helpful fashion, at a decent price. Can't really ask for much more, 5 stars

I visited the Eastbourne branch for help with an unusual DIY problem. Steve Fulbrook was incredibly helpful, understanding my issue and providing parts for an improvised solution. I couldn’t have done it without him. He deserves a pay raise or promotion as he’s a valuable asset to the company.
