+<h1>Buying New Fitted Kitchen<h1>
+
+The kitchen has to be one of the most important rooms of any  
household, a place where family meals are prepared, and a warm and  
social atmosphere to entertain casual friends and neighbours. Most  
people spend a lot of time in the kitchen and this is why it's so  
important that the design and style is satisfactory for your needs.
+
+If your kitchen hasn't been remodeled for years and is looking dated,  
or you have recently moved and want to invest in a more modern look,  
then it doesn't have to cost the earth for a new look. A new kitchen  
can bring a fresh feel to the whole house, as well as making it an  
enjoyable space for the whole family to enjoy.
+
+When planning your kitchen there are various aspects you need to take  
into account if you want to make your life easier when it comes to  
preparation, baking and cooking. Here are some things you should think  
about, whether you are designing the area yourself or getting the  
professionals in to do it for you.
+
+One of the main aspects is space, a common problem when people design  
and fit a kitchen themselves is that they don't consider if there is  
enough space to open appliance doors, and storage units comfortably.  
If the kitchen is particularly small or narrow, or has an island in  
the center space, you may find it difficult to open the oven or fridge  
door properly if the area wasn't measured up correctly. When creating  
your design you might find you can't have the one you prefer as the  
shape of the area won't allow for it, especially if placement of  
utilities and waste can't be moved.
+
+Safety is particularly important in a kitchen particularly if you  
have young children. Place the oven away from other entrance doors  
where children could come running through without looking, also you  
will need proper ventilation, particularly above the oven. Sufficient  
lighting is also essential especially in the preparation area where  
sharp knives are used and cleanliness is a concern. Stain resistant  
and non-slip flooring can make it much easier to keep the area clean  
and prevent bugs from setting up home, and stop accidents when the  
floor is wet.
+
+How you update your kitchen nearly always comes down to how much it  
is going to cost you. If you are on a tight budget then you can buy  
[http://www.highlineinteriors.co.uk kitchens] at affordable products  
at all the big DIY stores, such as B&Q and Wickes and other home base  
stores. Prices can be low and they sometimes have offers where you get  
appliances at a lower price too. With these kinds of stores you have a  
limited choice and you really need to check out how durable they are  
if you want something to last for years. In this case it might be  
better to pay the extra and invest in  
[http://www.dandskitchensltd.co.uk fitted kitchens] that will last  
much longer and can be designed to suit your needs.
+
+A fitted kitchen encompasses a lot more of course than wall and floor  
units, when choosing styles and designs you'll also have to think  
about flooring, worktops and appliances, as well as lighting, seating  
areas and more. There are plenty of decisions to make, from built-in  
or freestanding cookers, a separate fridge and freezer or combined, to  
twin bowl sink and table or breakfast bar. Everything will contribute  
to the overall finished look and that is why even the very little  
details are important.
+
+It's much easier these days to come up with a design you really like,  
thanks to kitchen design software. This can either involve going into  
the store, whereby the consultant will input all your choices or be  
able to present you with a finished 3D version, or via a kitchen  
company website where you can download the software and do it  
yourself. You just need the dimensions of the area and you can have  
hours of fun designing your very own fitted kitchen!
