General recommendations

• Which cuisine is better - Russian or European production? Furniture of domestic manufacturers is good in that it is adapted for small premises and is focused on the implementation of individual projects. In addition, it is more affordable (especially against the background of the growth of the dollar and euro) and at the same time comparable in quality with the furniture of European factories. Moreover, most major manufacturers work on Italian / German equipment, use their own technologies, materials and accessories, imitate the "Europeans" in design.
• When choosing a kitchen, ask about the manufacturer of the fittings and the warranty period for it. Good loops are designed for no less than 80-100 thousand cycles of opening and closing.
• Do you feel that the designer is insufficiently competent and attentive? In this case it is necessary to replace either the designer or the manufacturer, since the design stage of the kitchen is almost the most important and the probability of errors should be minimized.
• To buy a kitchen is, if possible, in a branded, not a dealer / franchise salon or at least an official sales representative.
• When choosing a kitchen manufacturer, do not hesitate to take an interest in the fact that the assemblers are full-time employees of the company who have completed the same training and certification.
• To minimize the likelihood of errors in the design project, it is advisable to thoroughly prepare yourself: to study the principles planning of kitchens and to estimate variants of plans independently, for example, in our free on-line constructor.
