Hi All,
First time poster - seeking your advice for my (first) kitchen project.
I am looking for a German handleless kitchen for my small-ish 3.5m x 3m U-shape kitchen (2.7m ceiling). In terms of appliances I am looking to fit one steam oven, a dishwasher, a washer dryer and a fridge. I am also looking to achieve lots of storage space.
I really like the slick look of German kitchen and as an avid cook, I am looking for something functional and of good quality. I got a consultation from Bulthaup and Siematic, both told me the cost would be between 30k-50k (or most likely 40k-50k) which is exceedingly above my budget as I would like to spend closer to 20k. I did some research on the internet and it seems that the handleless-slick design is actually quite common and many brands do similar styles - including Leicht and Schuller.
Do you think this is achievable? Would you consider that these 2 brands are "good value"for money?
Also, I was wondering if I should try to find a kitchen supplier way outside of London as those in London probably charge a hefty premium? This would be more inconvenient because I do not own a car but certainly worth the effort for a fairer price?
Thanks very much for your help
