Awards

In 2024, Kitchensmiths received a Highly Commended in the Retailer of the Year category at the Cambridge Independent Business Awards and was a finalist in the Best Kitchen Design category at the BKU Awards.

Process and team

The process begins with a design consultation. Kitchensmiths has its own team of installers who complete one kitchen per week, which can mean waiting times of several months. The company highlights its patient, no-pressure sales approach, and its goal that the client gets exactly what they want.

Client experience

Client testimonials on the website mention the quality of the design, the professionalism of the team and the attention to detail during installation. Several clients highlight the ability to adapt to complicated spaces, such as a kitchen in a 16th-century house with irregular shapes, and the resolution of issues. It is also noted that it is not the most economical option on the market and that lead times can be long, aspects that the company accepts as part of its business model based on its own team and a measured pace of work.
