Quality
The Highest Build Quality: the Waterford-Freeman Hallmark
'QUALITY' should always be viewed as distinctly different from 'LUXURY'. A facade may present the appearance of luxury, but what is behind the facade is where real quality becomes self evident. At waterford-Freeman quality begins with the choice of materials, and is accompanied by top quality traditional cabinet making practices. Please review the product features listed below:-
- Cabinet frames and door frames are a very solid 31mm thick.
- Frames and door frames are constucted of solid timber. We will not attach hinges into MDF. ( it's only a matter of time before they part company )
