No but we had a similar experience with a kitchen firm called Kirkplan. We're still waiting for them, 10 years on, to come back and finish the sealing around the back of one unit after being put off 3 times, the job taking 5 days instead of 3, having to store the parts ourselves for a week (couldn't leave them outside, they'd be nicked), waiting another 2 days before starting because half of it had been delivered to the wrong house, having the fitter 'nip off' for something halfway through the day to go and 'just finish a job I started last week'.... and charge us an astronomical price for it all. To add insult to injury, one unit sticks out a couple of inches over the door frame (guess we were lucky it opens outwards) and the oven is a cantankerous piece of crap that bakes one side only or burns the lot.

They appeared on a consumer TV programme 'Watchdog' shortly after they didn't finish our kitchen. It seems we got off quite lightly, in that we actually got a kitchen fitted!
