Furniture for kitchen

[Sens]

Doplet, did you design the kitchen yourself or ordered a project?

SensAre you asking about the country kitchen or the city one? The dacha was completely designed and reproduced by my husband, and the city by me. I chose an Italian kitchen model, sketched out a layout, indicating what and where to place, and the consultant in the salon only adjusted everything in the project to my size.

Hello dear members of the forum, it's very cozy here))) in search of ideas for a new kitchen, I successfully wandered into this Temko. After reading your reviews about the red color of the kitchen, something has re-wanted this color. What do you think about the combination of cherry and chocolate colors? I also have an obsession with the wall opposite the kitchen, where the dining table will stand with wallpaper with a photo print, but I have not decided whether it will be large flowers, poppies, for example, or a photo of some landscape, someone has something like that, how to look ?

Some of them are crazy about purple with a black countertop and a black ceiling in the kitchen, for me it's better to have red facades with a light countertop
True, I have already given up on red, had had it for 3 weeks and realized that I had enough
And I didn't want a bathroom with red too

Somehow I almost bought a set of red underwear. It's good that my size was not. Sometimes I remember and think, what happened to me then?

Fir-palas Well, I never bought anything there, don't laugh. I'm still the designer, the techie too. Ieehhh ... but it's good that I came here
Grand merci

I agree how many people - so many tastes. I had photomurals pasted on, once they were in vogue. The landscape is autumnal, but quickly became familiar and tired.

Now the photomurals are not as gloomy as they used to be, and the price for them, wow, I really want to, but I'm also afraid that I'll get bored ...

And my torment had just begun, today I was at a furniture company, I looked at the pictures, after all, except for the black and red kitchen, I no longer have a heart for anything. Well, maybe I'll stop at wenge with cherries, if no one dissuades From the material advised plastic, do you think it is practical?

plastic in the kitchen is always more practical than wood

thanks, at least there will be no doubt about that now. What can you say about ceramic tiles on the floor? So far I know that the dishes are broken simply by the sets and it is imperative to carry out a warm floor. sorry that there are a lot of questions, I can't even imagine how to decide on all this

I have tiles on my floor for 8 years already, I am very satisfied (there is no warm floor). In winter, I lay a matting near the work table, for the summer I clean it and go barefoot. The only advice is to choose a rough tile, but not glossy. By the way, after the kitchen and in the corridor, they put tiles.

All other flooring other than tiles is not rational. Wooden, laminated floors are afraid of water (well, except for something cool like teak), you will not lay linoleum, as I remember as a child, sticking to kitchen slippers linoleum immediately after washing))) .. Self-leveling floors would be practical, but there is an opinion about their toxicity and high cost.What else is left of the coatings ... So the tiles are driving, the dishes will still beat ... I didn't do a warm floor in the kitchen, we are used to walking in slippers. And in order to walk barefoot, you need to maintain regular cleanliness of the floor, which is almost impossible in our family ...

Recommendations for choosing tiles for the kitchen: do not take embossed tiles, because all the dirt will remain in the relief, it is very difficult to clean. It is advisable not to take a single-colored tile for the light, too, a whirling speck immediately rushes. Best of all, the color is not uniform, not necessarily variegated. Make the seams between the tiles small, so as not to clean them later ...

I really like the tiles from the kerama-marazzi collection, I’ll probably decide with it))

We also have Kerama-marazi in the kitchen
But acquaintances in the kitchen laid the floor with light tiles, and, accordingly, the seams were wiped off with light grout. So they are now, the seams, terribly dirty, and do not rub off.

I have a light floor - white-gray "marbled", there is a brown pattern (contour lines) and my husband persuaded brown grout. How I resisted, I wanted a light one, but it turned out, it's still better with brown.
On the wall, the apron is also messy, but the grout will be white, because there the tile itself is so made that there is no other way.
And now I ask the audience for help. Girls, yesterday the measurer of the kitchen came and said that all the built-in appliances are close to the wall, and the plinth, the cutters must be removed. In the salons, I see that the tabletop protrudes by about 5 cm from the side of the wall. What is this he invented or is it really with the installation? And we have to shoot everything?

Where the sink does not have a back wall, we made sockets and faucets there. I went now and looked there, yes, really close and the dishwasher and the oven.

And where the hob is, there it is not adjacent to the wall. But they did not calculate with the upper rosettes and had to cut off the plinth a bit.

And what prevents you from ordering a wider countertop - for example 80 cm, or cutting it down to 70 cm? In my kitchen I made a so-on the back wall of the pencil case I made a rectangular cutout for the block of sockets. That is, you take out the box (make sure that it is necessarily removable), and you have access to the sockets. I also made markings on the forks of the devices with a ballpoint pen so that I know what to turn off. And on the side between the blocks after screed furniture, which prevents a professional from making a through hole with a "crown", which is specially used when installing furniture lamps, wiring accessories, and broaching water pipes. Professionals solve this issue easily and gracefully.

And now I ask the audience for help. Girls, yesterday the measurer of the kitchen came and said that all the built-in appliances are close to the wall, and the plinth, the cutters must be removed. In the salons, I see that the tabletop protrudes by about 5 cm from the side of the wall. What is this he invented or is it really with the installation? And we have to shoot everything?

What is this? I can easily stick my hand behind the dishwasher, palm. How do you put it right next to it? And the oven has such dimensions that it won't fit a carpenter against the wall. Anyway, it is mounted in a closet. Choi then he uttered bullshit. Or you misunderstood him. Let him explain normally what he wants from you.

So I think that some kind of parsley turns out. Somehow I began to doubt, because we used to go specially to look at ready-made and made kitchens - there are gaps, and cutters for equipment were made, but here ... well, let's see what verdict he will give us in terms of options and prices. And if you make a tabletop 70 cm, but it is made from blanks, the material that we chose was said to be 60 cm wide.In general, I'm all in thought ...

So you want a stone countertop? And ordinary countertops are 60, 80, 100 and 120 cm wide.So, especially thoughtful owners order 60 cm for a kitchen set, and the same drawing, but 80 or 120 cm wide, is ordered as a tabletop for a dining table. Now it is not a problem to buy a foot for the table. I myself have done everything in one color, including the same seats on chrome-plated stools. Browse the forums of furniture makers and manufacturers. Craftsmen often want to do it faster and with small means. And you need to look for a kitchen option that would suit you, for your needs. This is "individual tailoring" according to your figure, or rather the kitchen. Be persistent, because you live with this kitchen.

The technique does NOT fit in any way. Look at the sites for the dimensions of the desired equipment. The oven is generally inserted into the cabinet, as mentioned above. And the cabinets are approx. 51cm, + facade, total approx. 53cm. That is, the space remains between the wall and the cabinet at the back and the table top hangs over the cabinets in front. It is completely inconvenient to place sockets behind the devices. Conveniently behind the next cabinet, with a hole in the back wall for access (also wrote above). The dishwasher can be deeper than the cabinets, since it is simply driven under the countertop, but also not quite close to the wall and at the bottom it usually has a place for hoses. It is also better to supply water to the dishwasher next to it, and not directly behind it.
What plinth are we talking about? On top of a countertop or on the floor? If on the floor, then all the furniture is on legs, the PMM has a recess at the bottom, nothing interferes with the baseboard, although why do it there?

So, especially thoughtful owners order 60 cm for a kitchen set, and the same drawing, but 80 or 120 cm wide, is ordered as a tabletop for a dining table. It is not a problem to buy a foot for a table now.

I would not have thought of it, we went to furniture stores, everywhere there are mostly only glass tables, but I don’t want glass, now I’ll look for the underframe

This is not a kitchen, but beautiful, I haven’t figured out which Temko to fit into:

[Altusya]

Mistletoe, but you can chew for, like grit, especially gifted In Ikea, these racks are sold disassembled and you can buy everything separately? Or do you need to take the entire rack as a whole?
I just need you not big. And there they are all huge.

Altusya, Yes, everything is sold piece by piece. Since I also needed a small one, I bought a 1.74m rack (there are 2 pieces in the kit), cut it into 2 parts and got 4 racks of 87cm each. I screwed 3 shelves to them. And then I bought 4 more shelves and the rack is already 1.1m (it is cheaper), sawed off the unnecessary 23cm, it turned out 2 racks of 87cm each and attached it to the existing shelf .. Fuuuuuh .. understand, no ??

In Veliky Novgorod, we also need to order and wait for one and a half to two months for a countertop wider than the standard one. But the result is worth it. As for the table, I bought a ready-made one, I liked the base-underframe, and I adapted the table cover for other needs. Moreover, the girls wrote about window sills made of moisture-resistant kitchen countertops. Beautiful, durable, even if you stand on your feet and hang the curtains, everything is in one color scheme, and cats and flowers are generally beautiful. You can save a lot if you order yourself at a local small-scale wholesale company, your furniture makers also stock up there. I have personally done this. 30% savings. Seek and find.

One "but" for such a sill, I left a large width (how many I don’t remember exactly), and blocked the warm air that rose from the battery. As a result, condensation collected on the windows, as they say, they "flowed". I had to cut a hole in the windowsill and put the grate in the color of the countertop. Everything worked out, but the cat cannot be driven out of there in winter, of course)))

I also bought everything at a small wholesale company where furniture makers are bought)))))) By the way, underframes were also sold there ..))

[kerama-marazzi]

I like very much the tiles from the collection kerama-marazzi, I'll probably decide with it))

I ordered Kerama Marazzi for the floor today

[Grypana]

GrypanaNatasha, of course your furniture maker is wise. All equipment fits perfectly even under 60 countertops! The oven should not be right next to the cabinet walls at all, this is not a buzz. My husband also made a table for me in the kitchen from a countertop, and put a glass one in the dining room. And he made the sockets for me at the bottom (outer) of the upper drawers - this is for all kinds of HP, multi, mixer, etc. All built-in equipment, of course, is included on the back walls of the drawers in which it stands. Maybe he meant that we need cut-in sockets, not overhead?

Can you spy on it during the manufacturing process? It's just that all the kitchens don't suit me, and ordering is expensive. Can we pick up something from your hands? Pliz, well, show me!

, and it is like, from drywall?

Honestly, it's a shame to show, repair, but if you ask, then something like this:
these are the top lockers

these are shelves. The first Freesia asked to make for books and notebooks with recipes, and the second for all sorts of trinkets ...

So we already have cut-in cutters, even the pipes are all submerged in drywall, only a little gas protrudes and then I reached with a woman's mind, calculated that the way out can be found without straining, and the plinth is also not a problem to remove and put on. How puzzled I was that the technique is right next to it, I'm all on the internet today and I'm looking for the dimensions of my technique. Well, it just can't fit tightly. We will take the HOTPOINT ARISTON FT 850.1 AV / HA oven, of the same series and color, but I haven’t decided on the dishwasher, but I still don’t think that everyone has it all right. So my husband had a doubt about the removal of these rezetki. I'm waiting for the call, the master promised to call back in an hour. Well, this is the first person. who told us this, there are still two other masters in mind, of course I will talk with them. Look for a middle ground.

[milling cutter]

milling cutter, and how many kitchens have you made? And if you can, how much money did the simply ordered facade cost, without other accessories?

[Fraser]

Fraser, and what do you fix drywall on? Profile or bars? This I mean, how will you fix the awnings and shelves in the cupboards? Whether it will be reliable, the weight is not small, we stick it into the lockers. Right now you will be tortured with questions, get ready.

Grypana

I have all the equipment back to back, and even a 1cm gap is closed with an upper plinth. Consider for yourself if the width of the countertop is 60 cm, and your oven is 55 cm (PMM is usually even deeper, plus the facade) you need at least 3 cm on the visor in front, otherwise the handles will stick out, 2 cm remains, and this is practically end-to-end. And so count the rest ..

I mounted it on a profile. Plasterboard structures are equal in strength to foam block. An uncle, a kilogram of 90+, came to me to start the gas boiler, I was surprised when I invited him to stand on the countertop (then, it seems, I hadn't even laid tiles yet). At first he stood cautiously, then he almost danced. So the safety margin is sufficient. In places where the doors are attached, I inserted 20 mm mortgages into the profile. boards. (my frame is assembled from a UD profile (wall guides) 27 mm wide). Taking into account the gypsum, all the partitions turned out to be 5 cm thick. Also, a 60 cm wide window sill is made of drywall, which is a continuation of the table top. Well, and a niche under it for the battery ...

Our kitchen is small. Under the lockers that I showed above are these

then there is an opening for the future oven))), then another section:

The doors were already with embedded "shutters". I also took 2 guides for chuhlyadki. for all 1500 UAH (I don’t know how much in rubles, the dollar we have is UAH 8, that is, somewhere around 190 green)

I made the sockets almost according to the same scheme, I doped it myself Just thinking how convenient it is ... True, the repairmen were a little stunned by so many sockets. All the time they asked - how much do you want? And each time I had to explain that I had a lot of equipment, that I was always in short supply, that it was annoying - extension cords or the need to turn off one to turn on the other ... The electrician who did the work was the least surprised. True, he, as a young man, did not understand why he needed an egg cooker, a yogurt maker and other objects that were obscure to the male mind, but he immediately delivered a verdict: as an electrician, I believe that all equipment should be connected separately, moreover, if the sockets from several posts are for each a separate box!

[15]

Me too now 15
I myself have become afraid - and how many

Not many, I also have 15 sockets, no extra

Girls, I have 15 outlets in my new kitchen. And the old one was 1.

I also counted my sockets - 20 pcs. turns out. While I am the record holder in this business, and although in the old kitchen I had 10 sockets, they also added them during the renovation and there were enough of them (there weren't so many equipment), they decided to stick around in the new apartment wherever possible and impossible - they are never superfluous are. I've cheated one table with sockets, I needed at least 2 pieces. to do there too.

All this is relative - 15 sockets on 6 squares and 15 sockets on 10 square meters are different things
It just seems to me that my kitchen floor has only sockets
I understand that everyone will be needed, but it's unusual - they steal beauty ((

I have 17 sockets, but if I still have to move, I will add 2 more. The craftsmen who made the ceiling were also surprised - where so many. And I asked: "and your wives have a bread maker, a slow cooker, etc." The answer is why, everyone is doing it on the stove. That's why I have 17 sockets.
Well, it seems, while my furniture maker said - he doesn't see any problems, he arranged everything as I need it. He calmed me down, otherwise I said a lot, I already doubted.

To be honest, I haven't mastered the whole topic ... have you already discussed kitchens with photo printing?

I like them a lot ... Like these:

I come out on top - I have 22 sockets !!! And as I suppose (there is still no furniture), everyone will be in business ..

[Inus]

Inus, I like it too! Scares only one thing, but if the picture gets bored?

[Inus]

Inus, I like it too! Scares only one thing, but if the picture gets bored?

I now have the same thoughts only about an apron with a photo print ... What if I get bored? On the other hand, before the aprons were only made of tiles and lived, they did not grieve ... not even from repair to repair ..

And you can only change the facades and remake some boxes locally, which I did two months ago. The kitchen was classic, but it has become modern

Then you need to immediately order two options for the facades and change them depending on your mood!

I am still for furniture without decor. And it is easier to make changes to the interior by changing textiles, upholstery (to make removable covers on chairs or stools), placing color accents. By changing all this, it will be possible to get an updated kitchen with minimal costs.

[Kroshik]

Kroshik, here's what happened in the end (at first I bought only one, then I attached another one to it):


Gorm series 🔗... I took separate racks (1.74 and sawed into 2 parts) and 3 shelves (they are already with fasteners).

Girls, didn't you think about painting these wooden shelves?

Here, I spied:

Girls, and I want just such an outlet that is built into the countertop 🔗

I've been looking at her for three years now. I think to insert it into the kitchen island. And just in the countertop, which is near the wall - I will not. Meaning?

I've been looking at her for three years now. I think to insert it into the kitchen island. And just in the countertop, which is near the wall - I will not. Meaning?

I don’t know, I don’t understand where she’s drowning yet

I don’t know, I don’t understand where she’s drowning yet

It is recessed into the countertop, that is, there should not be a drawer below it (or the back wall of a drawer). I saw them live, now I will find a photo and show it. There are several types of them, but I was interested in cylindrical ones.

To the countertop:



In the upper cabinet:



There are also such:



Here it is well shown:

🔗

In my opinion, the most important thing for the island, because there is not a single wall nearby. But for an ordinary countertop - only this penny will take up space and you can't really place anything under it / above it (if in the closet).
