Each mistress dreams of a comfortable and beautiful kitchen. And, the truth, in the modern house the kitchen is not only a place for cooking, but also literally the heart of any home. All members of the family gather in the kitchen, in addition, they often meet guests and gather on holidays. From what kind of furniture is in the kitchen, the mood of all family members depends, and the taste of the dishes cooked on it, and the general atmosphere in the house.
Kitchen set, which will be discussed today - the basis of furniture in any kitchen. As a rule, this is the most expensive piece of furniture in the kitchen. Modern headsets are made of different materials, have different functional and different cost.
First, we'll deal with the materials. Most often, the frame elements of kitchens are made of laminated chipboard. So, when it comes to kitchen from natural wood, it is worthwhile to understand that only facades (doors) are made of solid wood. The main materials for kitchen façades are:
- Solid wood;
- MDF plate with various types of coatings (plastic, PVC film, paint);
- laminated chipboard board;
- various types of plastic :
- glass, which can be installed in various frames.
Each of these materials has its advantages and disadvantages. Of course, the most noble and environmentally friendly material is a natural tree. But modern technologies allow the production of facades made of MDF and plastic, which, in their properties, are as close as possible to it. According to its geometry, the facades are flat, milled, with various gratings and stained-glass windows. The choice of facade geometry depends only on your style preferences.
On completion, kitchen sets presented on the market can be divided into the following main groups:
- Ready-made kits - usually so are sold small kitchens of economy class. Most often these are 2-3 meter long sets that are installed along the wall. Such headsets are sold "as is", and they need to be selected for installation at a suitable place in the room.
- Modular programs are furniture designers, which allow assembling a set of ready-made standard elements - modules. Modular kitchens are a more convenient approach for furnishing your premises with furniture. Modern modular programs offer an element base consisting of 20 to 300 different cabinets. Such kitchens are relatively inexpensive, since they can be produced in a straightforward manner. The shortcomings of such models include the inability to manufacture modules of non-standard sizes.
- Custom kitchens - this is the most flexible way to produce kitchen sets, allowing you to take into account all the features of your room, such as wall protrusions, indirect corners, etc. With this method of production, maximum flexibility is achieved and possible embodiment of any designer fantasies. Simultaneously with these, the cost of such products is significantly (sometimes at times) higher than the standardized modular counterparts, which is explained by the individual approach to the production of kitchen elements.
We examined the main types of kitchens in the package, beyond the scope of this article there were descriptions of styles of sets, built-in appliances, sinks, mixers, countertops and wall panels. It is worth noting that the kitchen shops that offer the headset for sale, as a rule, offer these related products. Also, the equipment of the kitchen, as a rule, is more complicated than any other furniture - there are a lot of technical features that are difficult to take into account the average person. But kitchen furniture is also a table with chairs. Therefore, it is better to rely on the help of a professional who will help you describe your desired cuisine to make a convenient and suitable set for you.
