Carcass thickness

Post by Argyll »

Is there a big difference between 15mm & 18mm carcasses (please don't say 3mm lol)?

I recall a kitchen salesman telling me there's no real difference in terms of robustness but I usually ignore anything these guys tell me.

Secondly has anyone had any dealings with this company?

They're just up the road from me so quite handy but I'm dubious about 15mm carcasses and only 5 year guarantees

normally 15mm equates to lower budget, flat packed contract ranges.

Big difference between 15 and 18mm or all the major players would be dishing out 15mm as standard.
