Our kitchen needs a refresh and we’re looking at replacing doors and accessories using Dream Doors

Would welcome any feedback back on quality, reliability etc

Yes, I used them years ago.

The doors are still going strong, but the "wrap" they had on them did start to peel, above where the kettle sits.

Saying that, I'd imagine tou can have different finishes, real wood, or whatever you want for the doors, and mine were the budget variety.

In terms of cost and variety, I couldn't fault them.

We looked at replacing doors, but decide that it was too complicated, as all the surrounding edges and kickboards also needed replacing. We had our kitchen doors and drawers spray painted instead, they took the cupboard doors and drawer fronts away and did them, then came back and did all the other stuff that couldn't be moved. We bought new handles which they fitted, it looks like a new kitchen now!

I’ve thought about having my kitchen doors spray painted. They’re solid wood which is why I’m loathe to replace them but what happens about the bits at the side that aren’t solid wood and can’t be removed?

I painted my own kitchen doors.
The very same ones I got from dream doors.

They're still going strong, and it must be around thirty years since i had them.
