Kitchen offers without price indications - is this common?

It's quite clear why kitchen studios (and not only these) no longer release details/drawings etc. Otherwise, many more studios will be checked out for so long until the price is driven down.. But if you communicate from the start, "we want and will buy the kitchen from you," everything is included.

Withholding the plans is typical for kitchen studios. However, the appliance types should definitely be explicitly mentioned. It's also about the specific functions. If you want absolute price transparency for every front, drawer, cabinet, etc., you have to go to Ikea. Such a thing exists basically only there.

We had exactly the same experiences as described in the initial post. The consultation was great, but no types of electrical appliances were mentioned. The salesman even explicitly said... "you'll just go online with this, compare, and end up unhappy."

In the end, we went to a carpenter who gave us a bit less product advice but a highly professional material consultation. The offer clearly refers to the current market price of wood and transparently shows how the price changes if wood becomes more expensive/cheaper.

We can either get the electrical appliances ourselves or he takes care of it, but for this, he requires a surcharge of about 20%. Overall, the total price is comparable to the kitchen studio, if not slightly more expensive, but the positive customer experience is unbeatable. Two acquaintances who are also building a new house followed our recommendation and are very satisfied!

My recommendation, therefore... buy where you feel most comfortable and are treated fairly... and that is not always with the cheapest provider... but the good feeling of having been treated fairly is unbeatable!

Just imagine buying a car and not knowing what equipment it has. These companies should be avoided.

after various kitchen studios, a planning in the mentioned forum, we bought our kitchen in Berlin-Malchow. Search terms Malchow and MS and kitchens

The comparison is flawed. A vehicle is configured ready to go, and you can then request offers.

If you don't give any specifications for the kitchen, Oven Deluxe "bakes by itself," you just have to take whatever they offer as standard...
