5 Must Have Kitchen Appliances


A kitchen is a room or part of a room used for cooking and food preparation. A modern kitchen is typically equipped with various appliances and the kitchen cabinets arranged according to modular design.
When you want a modern kitchen, there are many appliances you can buy to enhance your kitchen. Below are the essential 5 appliances you should have on your list.  


1. Cooker- what really makes a kitchen, if not for the food that is been prepared there. The cooker/stove which comes in either as Electric or Gas appliance does all the job.
The cooker can be a stand alone gadget or a hub which will be fitted on the granite. It does comes in certain sizes (600mm, 800mm, 900mm and 1000mm)



 2. Extractor Hood- whenever there is a cooking point, there should always be a heat/smoke extractor. This does the above mention job well enough to keep the kitchen smoke free while cooking is ongoing.
The extractor usually has two sizes 600mm and 900mm depending on the size of your cooker hub. It is positioned at a specified height just above the cooking area (*650mm which actually depends on the manufacturer)


 3. Oven- some stand alone cookers comes with oven while in built oven can be bought separately to be installed in cabinet of its own. It comes in two particular sizes (600mm and 900mm). The oven can be used for baking, roasting, grilling and all sort of things.


 4.Dish Washer- when all is said and done, the sink gets the trash. But who wants to start doing dishes after the stress of cooking especially after a hard days work. Load your dish washer and get the work done in no time while u do some other meaningful things.
The dish washer can also be a stand alone appliance or a fitted appliance as seen in the above picture. They are usually in 600mm width.

                               
 5. Microwave - when you need to warm that meal quickly without using the cooker,  the microwave is your friend. This appliance usually comes in 600mm sizes and it either free standing or console type. They different types does the same work, however, the console microwave makes your kitchen more tidy and classy as in the above picture.

The Black Kitchen

Hello everyone, so it happened that i got a call on a certain weekend from a prospective client interested in our work. We fixed an appointment to meet the next day which was a Saturday. It turned out that he saw some of our designs and projects online and got interested in them, long story short we were to handle his project #HomeFurniture. This includes #Kitchen cabinets and #wardrobe closets.
We agreed to start with the kitchen and the design was approved in no time as soon as all the things he wanted were incorporated.



The Client picked a Black laminate for the kitchen, and as usual we use MFC boards.
We gave him a project timeline of 7 working days! Which brought about the project#KitchenIn7Days. As soon as we received advance payment, we started the material purchase and production.

The breakdown of our Programme of Work is as follows :
Day 1 Monday: Material and Accessories purchase.
Day 2 Tuesday : Production ( Cutting and Edging or board)
Day 3 Wednesday : Logistics ( Transportation to site)
Day 4 Thursday : Installation commenced.
Day 5 Friday: Installation continues.
Saturday : Sourcing of Kitchen Equipments and Special Accessories. (watch out for my post on this)
Day 6 Monday: Rounding off Installation and fixing the Kitchen equipments and fittings.
Day 7 Tuesday: Granite installation and cleaning.

When we informed him of completing the kitchen within 7 working days he was impressed, when we kept our promise, he was wowed!
