Outstanding Service and Excellent Kitchen from Howden’s Yaxley


I recently had a kitchen supplied by Howden’s Kitchens, and I couldn't be happier with the result. Amelia was absolutely fantastic – a really, really good kitchen planner. She was incredibly accommodating and had lots of very good ideas that transformed my kitchen into exactly what I wanted. Her attention to detail and creative solutions were top-notch.

I also want to give a special mention to Larri the assistant manager at the Yaxley branch. She was so helpful, and nothing was ever a problem for her. Her support and willingness to assist made the whole process smooth and stress-free.

I highly recommend the yaxley branch of Howden’s Kitchens for their excellent service and dedication to customer satisfaction. Thank you, Amelia and Larri for making my kitchen renovation such a positive experience!

We deserve better!

I am greatly disappointed with my recent experience at Howdens Yaxley. Previously, I had a positive impression of this store, but since the departure of the previous manager, the quality of service has significantly declined. Additionally, I have experienced multiple issues with missing items in a previous kitchen order, resulting in financial loss for myself. I was offered “petrol money” which I never received as I had to go and collect multiple items, multiple times as more missing or incorrect items were found as the project went on. What is more annoying is the snide comments and remarks are made like “you can’t fit kitchens” which are unnecessary and ill fitting. When the issue was not with my services but the lack of quality control from the store itself.

I’ve also been ripped off. One time I was offered 4 items for £20. The next day I was in line and another customer was offer 3 for £10. It’s clear there’s a lack of fair treatment to customers. I was also charged more for a worktop than what it was on the website. I had to call up and be credited. It’s just poor and unprofessional. An attempt was made to fob me off with a lesser item than the drill I requested that I had earned through loyalty points. One time, I was offered a free saw as it wouldn’t fit on the display, I said yes, only to be met with “actually it does fit, so now you can’t have it”.

During my most recent visit to the store, (I recently requested a location transfer due to my recent move) The new “assistant manager” who has been consistently friendly in the past year, displayed rude and unprofessional behaviour. She normally greets me with a smile and “Hey trouble”. Today, failed to acknowledge me when she was requested by the manager to count cash I had just handed over. Not even a “Hello” or “Good morning”. It was only yesterday I sent well wishes and congratulations to be passed on by her colleague upon learning about her recent promotion. It’s ironic that only a few weeks ago, her boss was a “c**t to work for”. That’s a direct quote.

I immediately attempted to address my concerns by contacting the local representative but have not received a response. This consistent lack of professionalism has greatly upset me, prompting me to share my experience here on Trustpilot. It is unacceptable and disgraceful behaviour for customers to be treated in such a disrespectful, unfair, and unprofessional manner across the whole store. It would appear the lads in the warehouse and the kitchen designer are the only members of the team left with any level of decency, respect, and professionalism.

Howdens in Yaxley, Peterborough

We used Howdens in Yaxley, Peterborough, for our new kitchen recently. They couldn’t have been more helpful, whether it was discussing the design and colour, coming to measure up or helping with queries. The kitchen fitters that they recommended were good and the one we chose did an excellent job. We had one small problem with a dishwasher door that was damaged in transit and they got it replaced immediately. I would use them again in the future and highly recommend them.

Howdens Yaxley Fab (Especially Dominic)

Howdens Yaxley (Especially Dominic) have been fab. For various reasons our house remodel has taken longer than expected. But we brought them our plans and their 3d creator was fab at helping us picture our new kitchen. It was delivered and offloaded efficiently. We had a fault with a washer dryer which was quickly and simply sorted. Already recommended the service to my parents and 2 friends looking to upgrade. Thoroughly happy customer

Review of Howdens / Yaxley

I’m a local tradesman and deal exclusively with this branch of Howdens for all my kitchen and joinery needs. Why? Not only for Howdens high quality products and competitive prices but for me the great personal service provided by every one of the staff at the Yaxley branch. They are all a credit to the company.
