Paula Rosa Kitchens

Paula Rosa Kitchens, kitchen manufacturer in Sussex

Paula Rosa Kitchens is a British company dedicated to kitchen design and manufacturing, with its own workshop in Sussex and a history dating back to 1946, when it began as a workshop in that same county. The firm operates under the company name Dennis & Robinson Ltd and sells its kitchens directly from the factory, with no showroom surcharge.

Kitchen catalogue by style

The catalogue is organised into four main styles, each with a starting price indicated on the website:

Named models include Franklin (Slab), Jackson (Slab), Manhattan (JPull), Arundel (Shaker) and Fishbourne (Shaker). Kitchens can be filtered by colour —white, beige, grey, red, green, blue, black, metallic, stone and woodgrain— and by intended use: busy families, everyday living, entertaining guests, small spaces and open plan spaces.

Components and finishes

The component range includes handled and handleless units, in base, wall, corner, appliance housing and tall configurations, as well as appliance doors, panels and accessories. Available handles include bars, knobs and cups. Worktops are offered in laminate and quartz, and splashbacks and upstands cover everyday splashes and steam. The sinks and taps section includes both elements, and accessories cover shelves, cutlery inserts, lighting, bins and unit accessories. Available appliances are grouped into cooking, refrigeration, dishwashers and laundry.

Planning and advice

The company offers customers an online 3D planning tool to try out layouts, colours and cupboard combinations. It complements this tool with practical guides on how to plan a kitchen renovation, how to choose colours and finishes, how to measure the space —walls, windows, plug sockets and corners— and how to design a kitchen for entertaining. It also publishes buying guides on kitchens, worktops and handles, as well as inspiration articles featuring customer kitchens, farmhouse-style kitchens and open plan kitchens. The company also offers a downloadable brochure with the full catalogue.

Service, delivery and warranty

Cabinets are delivered pre-assembled and ready to install, with a delivery time that the website states as a minimum of five weeks from order. The company sells directly from the factory and maintains a price match promise: if the customer finds a similar kitchen cheaper, the firm matches the price. It also offers a spare parts, accessories and replacement parts service through its website. The company states that its kitchens are made in Sussex using green energy and responsibly sourced materials.

Promotions current at the time of analysis

The site showed a 20% discount on stone worktops until 11th November and a free hot tap with kitchen orders over £5,000, in both cases with applicable terms and conditions.
