Benchmarx kitchens review: units, costs, and installation

Benchmarx kitchens review: units, costs, and installation Benchmarx calls itself the kitchen and joinery specialist and sells more than 10 types of kitchen, including traditional and modern designs in a choice of colours and finishes.

Benchmarx only sells directly to tradespeople. But you can view its kitchens online or in-store and have a design consultation. Then you'll need to find an installer yourself.

Benchmarx says that working directly with traders means customers can get competitive trade prices. 

Set up in 2006, Benchmarx has around 140 branches across the country.

Benchmarx kitchens: installation

Benchmarx is a trade supplier and doesn't have its own installers. So we don't have customer ratings for Benchmarx's kitchen installation. You'll need to choose your own kitchen fitter if you buy from Benchmarx.
