Kitchen and appliances damaged by kitchen company

Page 2 of 2
Here are some more photos of more damage and defects. There’s actually a lot more this is just a portion of the damage and defects




Also I have taken photos of the sticks could anyone tell me what material? I’ve had feedback that this does not appear to be moisture-resistant? Just plain old ordinary mdf?

And also taken photo of cross section and piece of cut off that I took apart

I’m having a hard time loading the photos so I’m going to link the photos instead

And is this normal for installation of butlers sink? The silicone looks super messy also the silicone peels off very easily just from a touch.

It is HMR board in the carcass and MR MDF for the doors and panels. The materials used are fine.
It's the quality of installation that is lacking.
Hi could I ask how you can tell its HMR? thanks
It says it on the CNC stickers.
And it looks like it from the pictures.
HMR board actually costs me less to buy than standard PB because of the volume that it is made and used in the kitchen industry. It's the default board.

Yes I had a closer look and you’re right thank you. Also do you think these defects can be “touched up”? which is what the kitchen company owner has proposed to do?
You have paid for a new kitchen, not a touched up one. Ask them to re do the damaged panels and correct their poor workmanship. This should not be too hard for them.

Do you think this kitchen is original

Kitchen Corner

No. It's not original. Circa early to mid 90s would be my guess and maybe even as late as early 2000s
