It’s called the ‘heart of the home’ for a reason – kitchens bring families together.
Deborah Reardon, the owner of Kitchens R Us, knows how important it is that their customer’s needs are at the heart of everything they do.
Kitchens R Us have been in business for over 25 years, perfecting a quality of finish that sets their kitchens apart from the rest.
Their kitchens are New Zealand made, here in the Bay of Plenty in a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility. We source all our board materials from New Zealand suppliers, ensuring the quality, durability & finish of your new kitchen is world class.
“Our customers know that with us you get innovative designs and a stunning result, all while being completely stress free.
“We are proud to offer a 10-year warranty on all our kitchens, and you just can’t offer that if you don’t back the whole process ‘one hundred percent’,” says Deborah.
Kitchens R Us are also extremely proud of the team they have built across the company from high-quality cabinet makers to highly-trained kitchen designers, the talented group of professionals are dedicated, to the design and building of kitchens, approaching each project as if it were in their own home.
Having recently opened a new showroom in Taupō, Kitchens R Us are delighted to secure Karin Roestenburg as head designer.
“Karin comes from a long line of talented designers and craftspeople, and her bubbly personality, combined with her talented design skills means Karin will make choosing your new kitchen a truly wonderful and happy experience.”
And Karin is just as happy to be part of such a forward-thinking company, that not only invests in new technology to enhance their offering, but also allows the designers to do what they do best – work with customers to help them create their dream kitchen.
“Spending money is nerve-wracking for most of us, so I aim to make the journey as enjoyable as possible by listening and truly gaining an understanding of what will be the best solution for their individual needs,” says Karin.
“We all use kitchens differently, and it is my role to know how this would translate into the best design for my customer’s homes.”
More than kitchens
Located inside the existing Flooring Design Showroom in Taupō, Karin appreciates being able to combine flooring options alongside the kitchen display.
“It definitely makes it easier for customers to make the choices when they need to, with all the samples and options in one place – it enables them to gain a greater overall picture of how the colours and materials will work alongside each other.”
It also made sense to Deborah that Kitchens R Us expanded their offering to include other cabinetry requirements – such as wardrobes, sculleries, laundries and more.
“We work alongside fantastic local builders in each of our four locations, combining the local knowledge and experience, to make sure our customers get the very best of advice right at the beginning of the process,” says Deborah.
“By building great relationships with local builders all over the Bay of Plenty and Waikato, we can provide our customers with an extra range of services, as needed, to complete or compliment their project. By using our trusted builders, we know any services we recommend will be at the same high standard that we ourselves put into our kitchen manufacturing and installation.”
