Kitchens "Maria": reviews about the quality and service of the company

"Cuisine is the heart of the house" - a phrase is common, and in many families it is really so. It is for this reason that it should be cozy. You can achieve this by setting a good kitchen set in the room . And if two decades ago, the needs of buyers were limited to the capabilities of Russian industrial woodworking enterprises, today in the furniture market of the Russian Federation there have appeared, successfully exist and are developing many private companies that are ready to satisfy any demands of discerning consumers. This is exactly what LLC "Maria" refers to.

A bit of history

For more than 10 years the "Maria" kitchen factory has been working on the market. Reviews from consumers during this period were different - both good and bad. However, the company steadily moved towards its goal, introduced new equipment, developed new technologies. In addition to making fashionable and quality kitchen sets, Maria also provides household appliances and various accessories for kitchens. The high quality of the offered services is provided by strict control at all stages of production of the kitchen "Maria". Negative feedback from the buyer is necessarily considered by the company's representatives, and all the problems that arise are eliminated as soon as possible.

To date, "Maria" is not only a large furniture manufacturing company, but also a wide dealer network consisting of 300 studios in 150 locations located not only in Russia but also outside it. The cradle of the company is Saratov, where up to now production is located.

2008 was marked for the factory by the achievement of a peculiar milestone: it produced and shipped products for 1 billion rubles. And only after two years, in 2010, this figure reached an amount of 2 billion rubles.

Range of products

In the company's catalog, more than fifty models of kitchen sets are offered to the attention of customers. The range of products can satisfy the tastes of both adherents of classical interiors and modern fans. Array, MDF, chipboard, natural veneer - these are the main materials from which the kitchens "Maria" are made. The feedback of the workers shows that Fabbri Group Italia, well-known Italian designers, participate in the design development processes.

Excellent performance characteristics, effective and attractive appearance are achieved through the use of the highest quality materials in the production, which have certificates of compliance with Russian and European regulatory documents.

Skeletons of kitchen sets

The production of load-bearing structures is quite eloquent from the feedback of employees about the company. Maria kitchens, according to them, are assembled on skeletons made of high-quality chipboard from the Austrian trade mark Egger. Plates to give them durability are laminated with a special film. Since the frame is the main supporting element, special requirements are imposed on it for strength and stability.

Worktops

Particular attention is paid to the countertops of the kitchen "Maria". Buyers' testimonies eloquently testify that any customer will find for himself what is right for his kitchen.

The table-top always remains in sight and at the same time is exposed to all sorts of influences. It is for this reason that the material from which this element of the kitchen set is made must be both practical and spectacular, beautiful.

The company "Maria" is ready to offer a fairly wide range of materials for the manufacture of countertops:

1. Manufactured by special technology, moisture-resistant chipboard is faced with plastic, the edges are trimmed with acrylic. If necessary, the particleboard is joined together by waterproof seams. For finishing the front side, an aluminum edge is sometimes used. From 40 to 60 mm, the thickness of the kitchen countertop "Maria" can vary. The response of one of the consumers was very positively estimated by the table top made of particle board with aluminum edging.
2. Very popular in recent years are countertops made of artificial stone. For a number of performance characteristics, this material is superior to the natural analogue. Cloths of artificial stone look very impressive, they are strong and practical. But these countertops are much more expensive than those made from chipboard.
3. Much less often, buyers prefer stainless steel worktops (manufactured in Russia, Italy) with built-in sinks and hobs.

Very impressive is the production of the company "Maria" - kitchens: the staff's feedback is brought to the attention of consumers that there is a possibility of a wide choice of wall panels of various colors in the performance of several types of materials. This allows you to create a harmonious, cozy and comfortable interior in the kitchen.

On clothes meet ...

It's time to mention the "face" of the kitchen set - the facades of the kitchen "Maria". Buyers' comments speak about a wide range of colors, variety of shapes and styles of these furniture elements. But it is from these factors that the atmosphere, the general mood of the room, is created. In order for the kitchens to look spectacular and modern, the company cooperates with well-known European manufacturers of a wide variety of materials. Widely used laminated chipboard from the Austrian "Egger", high-strength matte and glossy postforming from Italy. Facades of MDF are in demand, slabs finished with PVC film, covered with protective varnish or enamel. A worthy competitor to all these materials is natural wood.

A special charm is one of the kitchen models "Maria" - "Nicole". Comments of consumers, first of all, draw attention to the facades of sweet cherry. This material has a special "amber glow", its nobility and beauty are favorably emphasized by the classic picture of the front doors. The stained-glass frame, accessories and handles of the kitchen set "Nicole" are made of copper (or, at the request of the customer, from aged copper).

The official version reads as follows. Among the Azov Islands in the Atlantic Ocean there is one unusual island: it is divided by a mountain range in half. On one half of it there are more sunny days, on the other - rainy. There is a belief that a person who will get wet from sunrise to sunset on the rainy side and dry on the sun, will fulfill his most cherished desire. Then, in the late 90-ies, resting on here the future founders of the company "Maria" it succeeded. This island was called Santa Maria. That's why they decided to give their child such a name.
