Hello everyone,

I would quickly need your assessment on whether the price is reasonable.

The kitchen, including stove, microwave, oven, dishwasher, and sink, is supposed to cost €11,850.

What is not included are the refrigerator, backsplash, and faucet.

Lowest online prices for the appliances compared to the kitchen studio:
- Stove €1,800. Studio price €2,050 including installation = okay
- Dishwasher €560. Studio price €565 including installation = okay
- Oven + microwave €1,120. Studio price €1,200 including installation
- Sink studio price estimated €500-600, since it is a ceramic sink

Total cost for appliances = €4,320-4,420 without refrigerator, backsplash, and faucet.

So my problem is not the electrical appliances.

Therefore, the pure kitchen furniture is supposed to cost about €7,600.

- Brand: Bauformat
- High-gloss lacquered fronts
- Worktop laminate with thick edging
- The island is 2.50 m x 1 m (8.2 ft x 3.3 ft)
- The kitchen run is 3.20 m (10.5 ft)
- High cabinet 1 m x 46 cm (3.3 ft x 18 in)

Attached are the pictures. Are the €7,600 for the kitchen furniture justified?

It’s a small kitchen studio with very good advice.


Modern kitchen: island with cooktop, dark countertop, beige cabinets, window on the right.

Modern kitchen: stainless steel refrigerator on the left, sink in the middle, oven/microwave on the right.

Modern kitchen with island, white cabinets, dark countertop, oven and refrigerator.


But I see so many YouTubers revealing their prices and getting so much more kitchen for the money.

kbt09, I think your kitchen redesign is great, much better than the botched solution from the kitchen studio!

You can always remove a countertop later if you no longer need it... (there’s surely a solution for the holes...)

I just thought the same while reading.

The only question is where to put the Thermomix, coffee maker, toaster, and bread box now.

Dishes in narrow or wide drawers? If there are no other issues, then everything is just fine...

@Zaba12 .. The stair wall would need to be extended by about 10cm (4 inches), no view would be obstructed. Alternatively, instead of a 40cm (16 inch) tall cabinet, you could use a 30cm (12 inch) tall cabinet, but it is much less practical to use.
Where should the trash be placed here?

Google “base cabinet with waste system kitchen” and look at the images, then you will see what a base cabinet with a waste system means.

@Zaba12 .. what do you think about the position of the open part of the sliding door?

There is actually great space for those now at the sink area.

The Thermomix will go next to the refrigerator. The coffee machine and toaster will be placed under the shelves. The bread box will be omitted.
