just looked at wren kitchens, its a damn shame they dont do aubergine/plum high gloss units - fully assembled units sound great

Thats absolutely right. Magnet will undercut Howdens given the opportunity. Do look at the quality of the units though, because I have found Howdens to be superior although Magnet are more helpful and cheaper.

I think the helpfulness will vary from branch to branch (Howdens and Magnet)

the howdens kitchens ive done have always been nice. tho occasionally they send out a couple of bashed units. but always change them with minimum twisting.

the magnet one that was fitted by someone else at my mates house (he hadnt realised i fit em too) was ok but was all gloss white and the fitter left the blue covering on the edges of some doors. and half pulled it off on the lighting pelmet etc so pissed me off having to finish what he had been paid for.

I have never really had any problems with Howdens either (nothing major anyway)
