“From our very first enquiry to the final fitting, our experience with Howdens Lakeside has been outstanding. Lynette, Lou and the whole Lakeside team have been absolutely phenomenal throughout the entire journey. Right from the initial discussions, Lynette and Lou were incredibly attentive, supportive, and genuinely invested in helping us create the perfect kitchen. Their knowledge, patience, and willingness to accommodate every request made the whole process feel smooth and amazing. What truly stood out was how far they went above and beyond, often stepping in to assist with things outside of their remit and always making themselves available to ensure everything stayed on track. Their commitment and care have been truly appreciated. The end result is a beautiful, high-quality kitchen, and we couldn’t be happier. We wholeheartedly recommend Howdens Lakeside for anyone looking for an exceptional kitchen.”

They do pretty much anything you want. It is clean, the staff are the best people and they work so hard to provide the best customer service. I would seriously suggest that if you work in the area you should give these guys a call even if you can’t sit down. Just order for collection. They are quick and their food is so good. Thanks guys John.”

“Need to give the guy at the front of the store our thanks for a very pleasant experience at the Lakeside store today. Such a friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff member. Informed us of the 10% discount and also ways they can help find the sizes we were looking for at other stores. He certainly deserves recognition for his friendly helpful and polite manner. Will definitely be visiting again. My only downside for this shop is it does need more lighting.”

“I do love wilko I always end up spending more than I intend to. They have such a wide range of items in here as it's quite a big one. Everything is neat and its easy to find items. The staff are helpful when you need something however, there never seems to be enough staff as I'm always looking around for one whenever I'm in there. The shop is super bright so it looks more spacious. I always find things I need in there.”
