German kitchens are about great ergonomics. These days, kitchens are designed in response to the way we use this space and the Germans are particularly good are making sure their kitchens are easy and comfortable to use. Inside, you’ll find lots of clever details, such as fittings to maximise storage, and a choice of heights, which is a real bonus if you are tall.

Most of the German kitchens you’ll find in the UK are modern in style. If you hanker after a sleek handleless kitchen in a hi-gloss or uber-matt finish, you’ll be spoilt for choice across all budgets. Kitchens range from high-end designer pieces, such as the Systemat Range, to more budget-friendly options from nobilia.

Carcases are strong, veneers and lacquers are hardwearing, and these kitchens are built in state-of-the-art factories by computers so you can be sure of accuracy and consistency, too.
