Choosing kitchen appliances for your new space is often one of the best parts of designing a kitchen, really bringing the whole thing to life and transforming it into a practical space that will, in theory, make it possible to carry out all the tasks and activities you have planned. 

That said, selecting the the best kitchen appliances for your needs is not always as straightforward as it might at first sound — there is far more to consider than whether they will do justice to the aesthetics of the space.
