the famous Unity Kitchen, Kajang
Early this year my fiancé has finally some funds to build a kitchen for our new home in TTDI. Of course we were tight with our funds as the terrace house was crazy expensive! Even for an old house. We had a contractor who did a makeover for our home at a reasonable price so many things were changed, from electrical to plumbing to flooring. Kitchen was an important part of our home and it was the second big project after we move in. Having to cook using kettle pot and microwave, I begun to miss the luxury of having a kitchen ready.
With many research on affordable but still good quality and presentable kitchen contractors in the Klang Valley, I saw a promotion on Unity Kitchen (UK) Facebook and made an appointment to see UK and the showroom, all the way in Kajang! It was worth the journey because UK explained many things to us.
Finally my fiancé agree to engage UK after I convince him this is the best place. Affordable, good service, nice designs and friendly! I heard many good feedback a from lowyat forum about them too. All I needed was to make a consultation session and UK will send 3D plan for approval. If I like what I see, I confirm the design and pay deposit :D balance to pay when they come to install the kitchen.
My Kitchen - BEFORE
arrived on the dot, UK Lorry
UK Team hard at work
In January, UK came to our house after a 2 month wait (they're so popular until there's a waiting list!). We took off from work to see them in action. I took many photographs haha. It's all in my Facebook! Click here to see my FB Kitchen from Zero to Hero Album.
before empty kitchen just fridge only
the kitchen plan - let's start work!
whole day for installing my mega big kitchen
almost crying to tears when it was done!
I ordered Blue Pearl granite top
(their granite price is also not bad)
(their granite price is also not bad)
what do you think of my dream kitchen?
This is a quick post to show a before and after of my dream kitchen. I choose a white kitchen with nice granite top along with Blum fittings. There's many drawers and UK even helped fitted the kitchen appliances for us! Though there is some mistakes, UK was quick to help and solve it all for us. Which I think is the most important element of having a kitchen contractor - the service level must be good. Otherwise you will have headache trying to communicate with your kitchen contractor.
I also contracted UK to do my walk in wardrobe
Best price, design, and workmanship at an affordable package. I highly recommend Unity Kitchen for your dream home. My kitchen and walk in wardrobe costs in total about under 24K with all the ad dons I included (Blum fittings, aluminium skirting, additional drawers, granite top, 3G Glass, anti cockroach). It's cheap compared to other kitchen contractors I have contacted! One in particular is charging me double the price. Again I highly recommend getting Unity Kitchen, you can contact Eugene (he was the marketing sales taking care of me) for Klang Valley areas. He's a patient and friendly guy, will answer and explain what you need to know about getting your kitchen done.
P.S: I bought my kitchen accessories from Builder's Hardware (highly recommend too for affordable kitchen and bathroom accessories) and another shop near Sunway Giza at great package price too. Ask me if u want to know yeap.

Deleteextensive research needed to find affordable and trustable contractors, I'm lucky my contractors are giving good service. Anything i bising they come to the rescue.
I bought my island from Ikea, 1.6k cheaper than building one and it looks nice too.

ReplyDeleteTumble Dryer Southampton
Nice blog i got all information which i want to get.Deck Builder in Birmingham
ReplyDeleteMy only other suggestion would be to check Amazon for microwave cookbooks and read the reviews associated with each cookbook. I've found the Amazon reviews quite helpful in determining whether a product or book is worth the money or not.

I enjoyed seeing each of your kitchen progress photos, Tammy....it looks really nice and the quality of finishing is there. Meaning that, you installed the kitchen cabinet from UK and bought an island at IKEA yourself? By this way, it is cheaper?
ReplyDeleteYour kitchen cabinets and walk in wardrobe are so nice!I like your idea of adding an island. I also hope to have a kitchen as big as yours.
ReplyDeletegranite worktop
This was a great deal. Great dress, fit to size, nice material. I am a size 6 and about 5"2 the dress fits perfectly. The dress is not forgiving so make sure you have spanks on under.
ReplyDeleteHi there, what is the size of your kitchen?
ReplyDeletedo u do the plaster ceiling and the lighting point first before doing the plaster ceiling?
ReplyDeleteI just had my kitchen done. The design almost same with u.. But the price was RM 27k (but with quartz stone table top) that actually cheapest I got after compare with a few shops..finally I went to interior designer. Surprisingly, they were cheapest! With 3D presentation design & very good quality & workmanship. If anyone interested, can try to go to their website www.myrtus.com.my the 3D design is free but need to register into their website and answer a few simple question related to our house.
