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

Thanks for the quick responses. I already informed the lady to finalize the quote and also asked if the fridge could be cheaper through her. It’s still quite expensive at €2250 (about $2600). The wall protection is available from Roompixx for just under €630 (about $720) as safety glass with a pattern. We will choose the pattern shown below.
Additionally, I managed to get a Grohe boiling water tap on Amazon for €800 (about $915). It was heavily discounted there 1-2 months ago. In total, the kitchen will cost around €15,500 (about $17,700). Quite a lot for such a small kitchen without upper cabinets, a pull-out pantry, or a carousel cabinet. Besides the fact that none of it really fits, but that’s just my building intuition.

Especially since there is an extra charge for the 92cm (36 inches) countertop height... Why is that? If there still is such a thing as a standard height, it should be 92cm (36 inches). We just recently tried (unfortunately without success) to buy a kitchen at a kitchen showroom, and there the height change was free of charge.

@Alex85 @ypg do you have an opinion?Hey Zaba,
I can’t really add much because my partner handles 99% of the kitchen.
I’ve only learned that “lacquer” isn’t just “lacquer.” The good stuff costs quite a bit, but you can actually see the difference, for example on the rounded edges/corners. They just show me samples, I say “ah,” and the money comes out of her allowance. After the “real lacquer,” Berbel, and ceramic countertop, I mentally checked out.
The kitchen is being built by a “hidden gem” here in town, whose design office is basically a corner in their living room. The price seems very fair though.
Good luck
Alex
P.S.: A faucet with hot water feature is a bit over the top, isn’t it? With induction cooktops, you don’t really need that, in my opinion.
