I am getting a new kitchen

[azureline**]

No idea which one yet though. I have a quote and a plan from Ikea, the Bunnings guy is coming tomorrow to do a measure/plan/quote and a kitchen guy is coming Saturday.

Today I received a quote from a kitchen centre.

I can't decide what I want except I want wide drawers and no overheads, galley kitchen, white with white benchtops.

What I really want is for someone to show me a display that will fit my kitchen, so I can say "yes, I want this one"!!

Good luck. That is my one day dream. I want a walk in pantry and lots of storage. I also want wide drawers, the ones I have seen make it so much easier to find things.

Finding a stock standard that will fit any kitchen is the tricky part.

I'm hopeless at making decisions or choosing stuff. I wanted timber doors for my kitchen, but got outvoted by hubby and the cupboard door man. Stoopid men.

Just going to slightly hijack your thread Az.  Muggsy, do you love your floor?

I love the wide drawers that I have in the kitchen.  I only have two.  One for saucepans and one for other cookware and storage containers.  I wish now I had all drawers because they are so much easier than cupboards.

No problem with hijacks!

I don't want anything but drawers, except for the pantry, I HATE doors and shelves, things fall out, stacking stuff is a pain.

Before the kitchen is done, I want the floor retiled. Last time it was done, it only went up to the kickboards and we have some chipped tiles, so I want the whole floor redone wall to wall.

I am planning to move the current kitchen to the patio while it is done 🙂

This is what I have been quoted for already but...... they have forgotten a few things, the short side was supposed to be longer, they have neglected to extend the breakfast bar into the dining area. So short by 2 sets of 600mm  drawers.

The oven was meant to be next to the pantry and higher in a tower, with a microwave shelf and drawers under.

There is a window above the sink area that comes down lower, not a little skinny one! and they remembered the range hood but forgot the hot plates. Maybe I won't need them if I have a soup maker?

 I am sooo jealous!  I would lkove a new kitchen but can't

get my tired brain around the problem.  Logistics do me in every time.  lol

Wide drawers are a must - for everything, especially dishes.

Good luck

my pantry cupboard is a similar size. It's a pull out pantry, so you can always see whats at the back.

My corner cupboards have a round thingy in them, like a lazy susan.
