Functional designs in Manchester

“Sharlene is absolutely brilliant. She’s painstakingly renovated and reupholstered treasured old furniture and it’s really quite emotional! I am really glad I’ve done this; it’s excellent value for money and really great to repair rather than buy new.”

“From start to finish our experience with Joanne and all the teams she works with at Appleton Kitchens has been first class. Her design skills, her organisational skills, patience but mostly her communication skills have been exceptional. Inevitably things do not always go to plan but Joanne kept us in the loop throughout and attended on site as required to liaise with the teams on our behalf and whilst waiting would start to clean. We would not hesitate to recommend Joanne and Appleton Kitchens to anyone who is looking for a completely new kitchen, a slight redesign or a tweak here and there. She is brilliant.”

“Wayne is friendly and very professional. My newly revamped pond is lovely with very happy fish and frogs. I'm so thankful as he wouldn't normally have come this far north to Morecambe from Manchester. If you want him and you do want him, bribe him with a comfy bed and homemade dinners. You will have to drag him in though as he's a perfectionist and workaholic. Excuse the net, it's an unfortunate necessity for the heron and the fox.”

“Gorgeous shop and lovely lady too x”

“This team are exceptionally good. I am not prone to hyperbole, but I recommend them on so many levels. To begin with, they are highly professional - supervised by the ever-conscientious (and very hard working and able) Rick, the young-ish workers applied themselves skillfully and diligently. The input the firm provided over the design and major refurbishments to my kitchen, sitting room, and two bathrooms was both inspiring and impressively accomplished. On the design/co-ordinating front, Ben was highly creative and thoughtful (and patient!) and judged the degree of consultation and 'going ahead' (there were so many decisions to be taken) just right. On top of all of this, the team are personable and good to be around - a blessing when for a while I had to live with them cheek-by-jowl on what was effectively a building site. The result: a wonderfully transformed home and a very satisfied and grateful me.”

“From our first visit with Helen through to the completion of our kitchen the whole process was seamless and flawless throughout. The design and creation was incredible and nothing was too much trouble. The installation was meticulously planned and a booklet was given with dates, names and numbers of everyone involved so we knew exactly what was happening and when. I honestly cannot recommend Prescott and Joule enough. I have the kitchen of dreams and I'm incredibly grateful and happy. Thank you so much Prescott and Joule!”

“We were having a kitchen / dining room knock through but had not decided who to buy the kitchen from. We had looked around all the normal high street suppliers to get some ideas but were disappointed with the quality. Stephen was recommended to us by our builder, who had completed a few jobs with him recently. We initially booked Stephen for a free design, not really expecting too much, but when we met Stephen, he was professional, knowledgeable and did not try to sell us anything. Within a few days, he had sent us a no obligation video, which showed a 3D kitchen design with a full cost breakdown. We were so impressed that we met him again and he brought samples; the quality far exceeds anything you will find on the high street and the price was reasonable too. We now have the most amazing solid wood kitchen, with quartz worktops, fitted quickly and efficiently with full communication throughout the whole process. Absolutely brilliant service, I cannot recommend this Company enough.”

“They did an excellent job and I would 100% ask them to do more in fact i am going to ask them for more and I higly recommend them for their great service”

“I phoned to see if an order could be delivered same day. This arrangement cheered a relative up no end! Thank you so much for a prompt courteous and friendly service. Over a week later the flowers are still going strong!”

“Whilst searching for key pieces for our new flat, we knew we wanted quality and style. Bo Concept were our first point of call being so local to us (just round the corner). From initial meetings with both David & Alan we knew we’d come to the right place. From helping to answer our questions, to choosing key pieces and delivery, the service was flawless!! We’ve shopped with Bo Concept on more than one occasion now and are never disappointed- our Bulldog Maggie also approves of what is now one her own outside seats (she can vouch for the comfort!). Amazing products and first class service! Thank you.”

“We're really pleased with the kitchen we purchased from Urban Haus. Beautifully designed and fantastic quality.”

“Very friendly and helpful staff, more than happy to guide you in store and get items down for you. We were served by Kynan, he was polite and very easy to talk to.”

“It was a fantastic time we had, and the staff was ever so helpful and pleasant! Really nice atmosphere too. The meals were gorgeous, we are sure to go back soon for more!”

“Mr. Zeeshan provided exceptional service, ensuring a positive experience. The cuisine was outstanding, offering a diverse selection of choices at reasonable price points.”

“Deliver for Suppliers......good bunch of lads. Often a quick tip unless busy”

“Excellent customer service. The sofas were above and beyond what we expected. Reasonably priced. Modern and comfortable. 5* company”

“Good, freindly customer service. Lovely conditioned items for sale at affordable prices. Recommended. Will return in the future.”

“Gareth made our fantastic bedroom furniture in 2013. After visiting his amazing 'showroom' we agreed a design for two wardrobes and a chest of drawers which he then created out of English oak and Cedar of Lebanon. Due to restricted access to the bedroom (small cottage) Gareth built the furniture in components and then finished the build in situ. Nothing was too much trouble for him... his only fault being working too hard and finishing up having his lunch at about 4 o'clock in the afternoon! Prior to the furniture he made 4 Oak internal doors and frames for us... again fantastic design and quality. Highly recommended!”

“Amazing customer service, so happy with the finished product. Thank you to all the team!”

“Absolutely beautiful product range! Some really great homeware ideas for Christmas presents. Particularly love the fireside reading chair. Will look great by the fire! Swift response and very helpful service.”

“Amazing stay at victory hotel lovely large rooms for me and my family. staff where so Polite and helpful and lovely to talk to. Food was spectacular . Highly recommend staying here and eating here. Also went to a wedding here and the staff did perfect job made the day run smoothly and was very friendly and helpful to everyone at the wedding.”

“Beautiful shop filled with stunning furniture. We bought a gorgeous 60s teak easy chair with mustard yellow upholstery. It is perfect for our living room and is so comfy. I always take a peak in when passing by as they have absolute gems.”

“Excellent quality wardrobes, very friendly and efficient service”

“Great interior design and bespoke wooden furniture.”

“A good place to get your new suite”

“Purchased a sofa yesterday. Never been to a Sofology store before. Will initially greeted us said how the store works, then we left to have a look around. We found a sofa we liked and Will took us the rest of the way. Really friendly and easy to speak to so 10/10 for Will. Looking forward to receiving our sofa in due course. Only bit of feedback is to Sofology as a company. Sort out the delivery price I think it’s expensive. Also look at removing the old sofa too.”

“What a fantastic product. We purchased a Leicht kitchen from Markham Webber after visiting their showroom. The quality of the product is of the best quality & surprisingly competitive compared to high street retailers. A special mention goes to Neil who provided a great service in terms of knowledge & design suggestions not rushing us in any way. Delivery was surprisingly quick, & whilst a couple of components were damaged in transit this was sorted quickly. Worth a look if you are looking for a bespoke quality product & design.”

“We approached Kitchen Design Centre Manchester in May 2025 for ideas to renew our kitchen. They had been recommended by a friend who vouched for the efficiency of the installation and qualify of the product. We met with Paul Harrington and arranged for him to come and view the kitchen and measure up. Paul went to a great deal of effort to understand our needs and preferences and budget. He came up with a design incorporating our wish to have a peninsula feature. He helped us chose the units, appliances, worktops and flooring. The experience was very personal and Paul was very pleasant to deal with. The kitchen was fitted in July 2025. We had gone for a full refit, including taking the plaster off the walls and ceilings. The refit was handled throughout by one of KDC's fitting teams led by Billy. Pretty much everything went to plan - inevitably there were a few glitches and items not arriving and more mess than we anticipated but it was a big job and we are very pleased with the outcome. Billy helped us retain items for a temporary kitchen in another room and helped us dispose of the old working appliances, which we had not expected. The flooring job was very efficiently handled. We are very pleased with our new kitchen. The Neff appliances are fantastic, linked to our phone and can be activated remotely. The units are top quality. 4 months in there have been no teething problems and it seems surprisingly easy to keep clean. You will not get the cheapest kitchen from KDC but you will get a personal service and a top quality kitchen. We would definiteky”
