We bought our bulthaup kitchen in Dublin in 2008 and it was only installed for two weeks when we found out that, due to the economic crisis that was so devastating to Ireland, we would be moving to Prague. Since then our lovely kitchen has been packed in crates following us from Prague to two different houses in Seattle until we finally bought our current house and had a place to install it. So, although this kitchen is thirteen years old, it has only seen two weeks of use! I am just so thrilled to be able to finally have my kitchen that another couple of months waiting for the new hob didn't even phase me. You guys are the best!

Andrea & Christopher

We just wanted to put into writing how thrilled we are with the way our kitchen has worked out. It is amazing how close to the final drawings it looks - it is immaculate, and it works beautifully. Your professionalism, service, decency, & conscientiousness ensured that we were always confident you were working in our best interests and in pursuit of a beautiful kitchen - & we also realise that not only did you listen to our budget, you endlessly strove to ensure we could get what we wanted and spend no more than we had. What we have is a completely stunning kitchen. It would not have been possible without you. Thank you so much. And please pass on our thanks to Paul - the fit and finish is wonderful.
