Why choose Quooker?

A Quooker tap can be quickly and easily retrofitted into your current kitchen, or can be purchased as part of a new kitchen.

And once you’ve experienced the convenience of instant boiling, hot, chilled and sparkling water you’ll never look back!

Feel free to call into our Washway Road showroom for a demonstration, or if you’d like any further information please do not hesitate to contact us.

Our talented team will create a calm oasis where there is a place for everything. From beautiful design details to clever storage ideas, our bespoke wardrobe collection will make a fabulous addition to your bedroom or dressing area.

If you have the luxury of a separate dressing area, we can design this space around your requirements to ensure you have plenty of space and your items are organised and easily accessible.

Awkward or unusual spaces pose no problem for the Bluebell team. Whatever size or shape, we will find a solution that fits perfectly and makes the most of every inch of space. 

And lets not forget the all-important dressing table! With space for all your cosmetics, stunning mirror designs and integrated lighting, not only will this area be beautiful but practical too.

Need space for some media in your design? We recently installed this stunning furniture which ensures all cables are neatly tucked away, leaving you with a clutter-free space in which to relax and unwind. 

We’re so excited to share the details of this recent project with you. Our clients have put their trust in us once again and are absolutely thrilled with the stunning space that has been created by Bluebell Fitted Furniture. An extension to their existing home, the intention was that this area should house a games room complete with bar, media area and pool table, and the feel of a luxury 5-star hotel.

Bluebell Designer, Darren started the process by chatting with the clients to really understand their requirements, their likes, and dislikes. Viewing a selection of samples and materials helps gain an understanding of preferred styles which can then be used to created CAD drawings and bring ideas to life.

With the extension finished by the client’s expert builders, there were lots of decisions to be made with regard to the details such as lighting, materials, and storage. Luckily, at Bluebell, we’re well used to overseeing projects like this, and as we have had the privilege of working with these delightful clients before, they knew they were in good hands.

This design is jam-packed with special touches. The stunning bar top is made from Corian, with antique mirrored glass behind the bar. Laminate panels in a shaker style with Zagreb covering sit below the counter of the bar, and topped with a floating effect ceiling complete with integrated lighting.

The bar also features an integrated fridge and wine cooler, and comes complete with finishing touches including a polished chrome bespoke foot railing, cut to fit by Bluebell.

The media area features an 85-inch TV and fireplace, with integrated surround sound in wall panels and built-in speakers. All cables are neatly tucked away and the unit features plenty of storage to keep the space tidy and clutter-free.

We loved working on the gorgeous interior design scheme with Lana Filippova Interiors. Lana helped with all those finishing touches which made a huge difference and brought the space and project together beautifully.

What a stunning result – this is a fabulous project that the whole Bluebell team has loved working on and we can’t wait to work with these wonderful clients again – this time on a home gym!

Ever dreamt of having your very own bar area to entertain your guests? Whether you’re planning a full-on garage conversion or transforming a corner of your kitchen, our talented design team will create a space designed to perfectly fit your lifestyle.

Many of our bars incorporate media areas, ideal for hosting social events at home. Whether you’re looking for sleek and modern or traditional and formal we have plenty of ideas to help you create a unique space which is sure to impress.

The images below show that with some careful thought and creative ideas, even a small space can be transformed into something special.

Oozing style and sophistication, the rich dark colour of this media unit helps to create a warm and welcoming space, with bespoke lighting adding a dramatic touch.

The design ensures cables are all cleverly tucked away, leaving you with a clutter-free space and creating the perfect environment to help you relax and unwind.

Or if you have enough space for a full bar like this one the possibilities are endless. Our designs are created to suit your requirements, incorporating storage for glasses, wine fridges or even a beer pump – your wish is our command!

This customer had asked us to create a contemporary, open-plan space with clearly defined zones. The sleek, modern units are paired with quartz worktops and splashback, with the addition of wood paneling adding texture and warmth to the design. The areas for cooking, dining, relaxing, and entertaining flow beautifully, creating a welcoming space that is sure to impress.

For this next design, the brief was for a more traditional kitchen to fit with an older style of property. The customer was struggling to find someone who could build a kitchen around the natural shape of their home and all its ‘nooks and crannies’.

As this room has low ceilings and beams, we chose pale grey units and worktops to help create a light and spacious feel, with the traditional, shaker style design complementing the style of the property. We combined this with units in a rich blue colour and oak tops to create a cosy and intimate feel.

If you’d like some advice or need some kitchen inspiration why not call in to take a look at our beautiful kitchens, we’d love to show you around.

There’s something liberating about decluttering your home, and a thorough spring clean can really brighten up your space. And it’s not all about cleaning – creating adequate storage in your home can have a huge impact on day to day living by keeping your space clutter-free and creating a more joyful space for the whole family to enjoy.

So what better time to look at all those unused corners or awkward spaces. Our design team has lots of fabulous space-saving ideas that are not only practical but look great too!

Why did you choose Bluebell?

We have worked with the Bluebell team before and like that they are a local, family-run business. We choose Bluebell originally as we were recommended by a few people including Macclesfield-based home furnishing store, Bubblitex.

What was the brief to the Designers – did you have a clear idea of what you wanted?

We had a very clear idea of what we wanted and showed Stephen a few pictures of the design I was looking for. He was so easy to work with and instantly turned that into the exact design we were looking for. We knew the style we wanted but we also took inspiration from their fabulous showroom. I like to see the actual displays rather than just samples.

How did the CAD drawings help you decide on the final design?

The CAD drawings really bring the design to life. Stephen would create the design and we would meet and chat about different ideas and he would move things around. There were only a few tweaks to the original drawings to get the perfect design.

Did you have any tricky areas or issues in the rooms to overcome such as access or limited wall space and did you have any specific requirements Bluebell had to include or work around?

The study is a very small area. I wanted to create a space the whole family would use. I work from home, my husband likes to have his own space to work in, and we wanted somewhere for the children to do their homework. In lockdown, it has proven a vital space for our 13 year old who has lessons from 9am until 3pm each day and it’s such an amazing space for her to use rather than being in her bedroom all day.

What do you like most about working with Bluebell?

They are so easy to work with. I ask for a design and they provide. Really simple. I like things a little different. They also designed our daughter’s room which was a larger area and I didn’t want just a row of wardrobes. I gave 3 pictures to Stephen – a seating area, dressing table and wardrobes. Lighting is very important to me and they know I always add “warm white” to the specification. Stephen designed exactly what we were looking for. The same for the study. It was just so easy to work with him and he did everything we asked for. I don’t think we changed anything in the design.

What is your favourite part of each room and why?

I can honestly say I love everything about each room. I suppose with my daughter’s bedroom it’s the seating area, dressing table, and lighting. Anyone that has seen it said “wow” which is exactly the reaction I wanted. My daughter has the lights on low in the evening and relaxes after all the homeschooling. It’s such a lovely space. The study has had the same reaction. I’m usually not a very big fan of cool lighting but it looks amazing. Before the latest lockdown, all our zoom meetings were in the study (before our daughter took over!) and everyone has complimented us on it even though they only saw a little of the area.

How did you decide on the wall lighting concept?

Bluebell has a display wall in their showroom and as soon as I saw it, I loved and knew I wanted it that for the space. It’s a small area but we wanted it to feel great.

I’ve worked from home for a very long time now and my previous study became a place no one really wanted to use and I would end up using the kitchen table!

How did the process go from initial design consultation to fitting, did the team sort everything for you?

Yes they did. The fitters have all been so neat and tidy. We have had a new build house and renovated lots of properties and we were so impressed with the workmanship. The study and bedroom were both done during the current pandemic. They followed government guidelines completely and had to work around a busy house but we had minimal interruption from Bluebell being in our home.

Is there any clever storage or practical ‘tricks’ they have included in the design for you?

The study is a small area but I wanted to make sure the storage space incorporated the printer as I didn’t want it on show. Bluebell designed the unit with a pullout for the printer with a plug at the back for access to it. It’s so easy to use. I wanted everything to have a place. We have so much storage area with deep filing cabinets also – It’s just perfect.

How are the spaces working for you now they are finished?

My daughter is using the study for all her full day of zoom homeschooling. I’m so glad she feels comfortable in there and it has been amazing for her through the lockdown. My 8 year old son is actually using her dressing table for his zoom calls 3 times a week. It’s such a calming area for him and he really enjoys sitting at the dressing table and chatting with his friends and teacher. We all have our own areas to use and it’s working well. We are so lucky that we have these spaces, especially as the weather isn’t as good we are not all on top of each other!

We are proud to announce HUMEN as our ‘Charity of the Year’ for 2021.

Did you know that 76% of all UK suicides are male? HUMEN is leading the movement to improve and maintain men’s mental health, preventing them from suffering in silence and dying too young.

Our motivation to get involved with this charity has been our lifelong family friend Chris Ingram, who has inspired us with his incredible story. It shows that everyone can experience mental health challenges no matter how successful they are. Despite achieving his dream to be the first British Driver in 52 years to become FIA European Rally Champion, his mental health was suffering and he needed help from friends, family and supporters.

To help raise awareness, Chris (who is Manchester born and bred) will be taking on #Challenge76 where he will be challenging himself to run 76km and cycle 76km per month, in preparation for the World Rally Championship where he will compete on 76 stages against the World’s best drivers in his comeback to the sport. You can learn more about the challenge he is taking on by clicking on the link below, where you can also help to support Chris and this amazing charity by making a donation to his fundraising page.

When lockdown comes to an end, team Bluebell will be setting our own fundraising goal to support Chris so do watch this space for more details!
