    Hi guys as always a little bit of advice please. I want to lower around 40/50mm although comfort is a priority rather than out and out performance as long term I intend to convert to a camper. As funds and time are short at the minute my dilemma is if I get the optimum set up and appearance...

I’ve always hankered after the traditional fitted kitchen and cupboards but was really taken with the Slidepods flexibility...
