When fitting a new kitchen, there are always a number of things for you to consider. Getting a look and style to suit your home and your taste is important, as is choosing appliances which suit your needs. The number one consideration for most people though has to be price.

Cookers, fridges, dishwashers and washing machines all cost money, so finding cheap kitchen appliances is vitally important. Cookers come in a number of variations, but by far the most versatile of the bunch is the range cooker, which combines your grill, oven and hob into one unit. This freestanding unit is ideal for families, but also comes in smaller variations to suit the customer. Many manufacturers offer colours and styles to suit any kitchen, but for the budget conscious out there, a range cooker can be the ultimate cheap kitchen appliance. Hotpoint offer a number of affordable dual fuel range cookers, the cheapest of which costs less than £700. If you want value for money with a little added colour, you have the option of Smeg range cookers. The Italian company is well known for its brightly coloured fridges, but you can get a Smeg range cooker with a subtle-yet-stylish black finish for just over £850.

For those looking simply to replace existing appliances, range cookers may not be the best option. Buying a hob on its own can be tricky due to the wide range available, from gas or electric hobs to ceramic and induction units. To make the most of your budget though, a gas hob is the perfect cheap kitchen appliance. Baumatic offer three gas hobs at under £150, which is almost half the price of a cheap ceramic hob. While a gas hob may not be as easy to clean as a ceramic or induction hob, the difference in price could sway your decision. However, if you can’t resist the sleek, modern look of a ceramic hob, Hotpoint offer a four-zone model for around £250.

Over the past few years the American influence on refrigeration has taken hold. American-style fridges with integrated ice-makers and chunky exteriors are in high demand. Compared to a traditional freestanding fridge-freezer though, the American style model is not a cheap kitchen appliance. The cheapest, smallest model from Zanussi will set you back almost £400. For a similar price, Hotpoint offer a freestanding fridge-freezer with more space and just as much style.

Many kitchens now feature integrated units, with dishwashers a popular choice for integration. Both Neff and Siemens offer good quality dishwashers for under £450, which are perfect for a family of four. But for those living alone or couples with no children, a dishwasher at that price can seem very expensive. Baumatic, who specialise in cheap kitchen appliances, offer a solution to this problem: a 60cm integrated dishwasher for less than £300. The budget appliance offers all the functions of its rivals, but at two thirds the price, and is ideal for those looking to save a bit of money.
