"The kitchen is a place which we spend quite a bit of time in. With not much space for such a place in our house, Darren and his designer team created a very practical as well as attractive and stylish layout. From the beginning with Darren’s and our ideas combined, through to the difficult transportation of the units to the second floor right to the professional installment of high quality cabinetry, we have been very pleased with Sherwood Kitchen’s services. Every aspect of the kitchen shows attention to detail and aesthetics.
Thank you very much, Sherwood Team, for a kitchen that deserves admiration and in which it a pleasure to cook, bake, create meals and spend time!"

"We have had Sherwood Kitchens create two kitchens for us in recent years - one as part of a refurbishment of an older home and the latest in a our new build.
Our Sherwood kitchens have been a joy to use, and the quality of planning, design, and build as well as that of all the appliances chosen, are just as we hoped they would be and both have been the subject of widespread admiration from our family and friends over the years.
We owe you our sincere thanks for the care and attention shown by the whole team for these projects - we felt throughout that you all had our interests and needs at the forefront of your thinking.
Darren Russo in particular, with his long experience and specialisation of this work, was notably skilled in interpreting our ideas and needs, both as a designer and installer.
We have no hesitation in recommending Darren and Sherwood Kitchens whenever the opportunity arises."

"We contacted Darren at Sherwood kitchens mid last year to create a new kitchen for us. We had very definite ideas for what we wanted, and had the plans sketched out already. Darren was very agreeable and easy to work with. He respected our ideas and was happy to include the things we wanted as well as make some suggestions of his own.
We had to wait until the beginning of the year to get the kitchen started as Sherwood was so in demand, but it was well worth the wait. We were not living in our house at the time due to serious illness and were actually based in Auckland, but Darren still made the whole process really easy for us.
We had great communication with Darren and he even arranged all the sub-contractors (that were not part of Sherwood kitchens) for us to ease our load. We are extremely happy with the finished kitchen. It is exactly how we pictured it and the finish is excellent. We would not hesitate to use Darren and Sherwood kitchens again in the future."

"I had always believed that a kitchen had one purpose, a place to cook and eat. My concept had been fridge/freezer on the left hand side, double sink under the window, stove on the right with cutlery drawer to its left and a breakfast bar. All within easy reach.
But, then, Darren and his team at Sherwood Kitchens did the unbelievable. They married my simple ideas with their aspects of practicality, detail, and style and created a room of beauty. I was amazed. My new kitchen not only looks good, it is easy to work in. It has become the centrepiece of my new home.
I offer my highest recommendation."

"It is with pleasure, we submit our testimonial to you and your team, for use at your discretion….
As newcomers to Northland, Sherwood Kitchens and Joinery came highly recommended, from a variety of sources. At our initial meeting with Darren, we were prepared with our architects plan of the house and suggested kitchen layout; concept visuals; and a list of criteria that we wished Sherwood Kitchens could satisfy.
As retirees, and this being our “forever Home”, we required that the kitchen functionality was “future proofed”, in the event we may have to face decline in our physicality and mobility. Plus we wanted a kitchen that could accommodate two, three or more persons working there with ease.
Darren viewed our submissions and listened to what we wanted. His insights, advice and demonstrations of fittings etc, gave us confidence in our decisions.
The Sherwood Kitchens team, replicated our visualisations to perfection. Our kitchen and bathroom vanities are awesome!
In fact, we are so pleased and proud of their expertise and precision, that we feel the Company should be represented in the ‘Kitchen and Bathroom’s category of House of the Year Awards!
Sincerely,
Chris Marriner and Lou Osmond
