When stocking up on things for your family kitchen in terms of equipment, you need the reassurance that they will last, that they are durable and that they’re easy to clean and maintain. After all, major kitchen appliances are a big part of family life!
Therefore we thought we’d put together some tips for making these important purchases so you can get the best options and deals for your family.
Mums and dads probably spend 90% of their lives cleaning up after their children, so to make life that little bit easier for you, it’s a good idea to look at how easy it will be to clean and look after the appliances you’re shopping for. For example, you can find things like refrigerators with self-cleaning shelves which can make life a lot easier.

Look for energy efficient options
It’s fair to say that as families, we use a fair amount of electricity. If you want to help the planet (and your bank balance at the end of every month!) it’s a really good idea to look into options that are energy efficient. Whilst these appliances can sometimes be more expensive to buy, they save you a lot of money in terms of the cost of running them. You can learn more about energy saving products from the Energy Saving Trust.
Ensure they have a good guarantee/warranty
Things can of course go wrong with appliances, but as your kitchen appliances will be such a crucial part of family life, you’ll need that reassurance that they won’t be out of action for long. Therefore it’s a really good idea to look into the warranty and manufacturer’s guarantee before buying anything so you will know exactly where you stand should anything go wrong with it. You could also look into options where you can find home appliance warranties which could be useful.
Think about how much space you’ll need
If you are planning to add to your family, you will need a kitchen that can keep up with the number of mouths to feed! You will have two options for this; opting to buy smaller appliances for now and therefore having room to buy another should you need to, or the second option would be to buy a bigger one now in preparation for the future. Think about how you want to use your space and which would work best for you.
Shop around for the best deals
Saving money is no doubt something that all families want to do...after all, who wouldn’t?! So it’s a great idea to look around for the best deals and the best options for your money. You can check out price comparison websites, online buying guides to determine what you need so you don’t buy more than necessary, and check out sales in stores to find the cheapest options out there.
