Obviously, your choice will depend on your available finances. The custom made kitchen island will be the most costly because it will be specially built to fit in the space you have allocated. A custom built one will also be designed to your unique specifications: maybe you will want to incorporate your sink or hob into the design or have a unique shaped island cabinet – whatever you want can be accommodated in a custom made kitchen island.

The ready constructed kitchen island cabinets are less expensive than the custom made ones because you are buying a ready designed one that could be used in any kitchen with the available space. Buying unfinished island kitchen cabinets would reduce the cost considerably and you could finish them to match the overall look of your kitchen.

The flatpack option is the least expensive of the three and if you have the necessary DIY skills, it is a very good and inexpensive way to add new kitchen island cabinets to your home.

Once you have chosen your cabinets, you will need to decide what sort of counter top to have that will complement the look of your kitchen. There is a huge range of materials to choose from including; granite, stainless steel, marble, ceramic tile, wood and laminates. Some are prohibitively expensive and some are very affordable, the choice is really only limited by your budget.

The next thing to consider is accessories and hardware. There are lots of different accessories to make your kitchen island more functional. You can include drop down drawers, refrigerated drawers, a trash can, rollout baskets to your design. Again, the ideas are endless.

Handles, knobs and hinges are important additions to complete the look for your kitchen island cabinets. Again, the choice is huge. So, shop around to find the perfect hardware; looking online will give you some great ideas on the different types of hardware available.

A lot of families use their kitchen island cabinets as a place to eat. So, some good looking bar stools are a great addition to your kitchen island where guests and family alike can sit and chat whilst you prepare the family meal
