Has anyone bought the £39.99 camp kitchen with the hanging larder from Argos item no. 019/6354?  We went and got one this morning but when we got it home and opened it it's actually different from the picture on the website and the catalogue.  It had an extra shelf on the left hand side with two cup holders and no larder!  Does anyone know anything about this?  Have they changed the design or have they just given us the wrong item even though it had the rigth catalogue number on it?  It's such a hassle getting parked anywhere near our Argos Extra store as it's right in the middle of town and it's a bulky item. I've e.mailed the customer services to see what they can do, I've said if it's just a case of the larder being missing, can they post it to us.  It's so annoying when things like this happen and we're going on our first trip in three weeks.

This is a picture like the one we actually got:

but this is the one we ordered:

Any views or advice much appreciated as always!

I think they reserve the right to subsitute with a similar article.

Where you definately after one with a larder - cause the other one looks better - more room to put pans etc.

Wildie, they are the same but for the fact that the one we got has an extra little table on with two drink holders we actually had an identical one in our eurotent in Trevornick last year.

I just think having the larder gives you an extra shelf.  We would put all our plates, cups and stuff in a storage box which would go under the table so I wouldn't be unhappy with this one, just curious as to why it's different and if anyone else had received the same one.

If it isn't what you expected, I would take it back - unless you are happy with it as it stands.  Argos are very good at exchanging things or refunding if the article is not what you wanted.

The larder bit. It has an open top under the table so 'creatures' can still get in. Just pointing this out in case you think the open shelves are not as good as a fabric enclosed larder because you want bug control! Hope you see what I mean...
