How much does a new kitchen cost in the Netherlands? Budget to luxury (2026)

A new kitchen in the Netherlands costs roughly €5,000 for a basic one up to €25,000 or more for luxury, installation included. Below is what to expect per segment, what is often left out of the price, and why sources disagree.

What does a kitchen cost per segment?

Segment Indicative price incl. installation What you get
Budget €5,000 – €8,000 Standard fronts, basic appliances, laminate or MDF worktop
Mid-range €8,000 – €15,000 Branded kitchen, induction hob, better worktop
Luxury €15,000 – €25,000 Design brand, boiling-water tap, better appliances
Bespoke from about €28,000 Fully custom, natural stone or veneer, top appliances

Sources disagree on the details. One calculator puts the mid-range from about €9,000 and premium from about €16,000, while another gives €5,000 to €18,000 for the whole spectrum. The direction is the same everywhere: between basic and luxury there is a factor of three to five.

What is usually not in the kitchen price?

  • Fitting and connecting appliances: €1,000 – €2,500
  • Moving water and electrical lines: €500 – €1,200
  • Extending the meter cupboard (for induction, for example): €400 – €800
  • Removing the old kitchen: €200 – €500
  • Plastering, painting, flooring: varies a lot per home

Together the sources put that at roughly €1,500 to €3,500 extra. So compare quotes on the same basis: is installation included, and is the pipework?

Where can you make a difference?

A large share of the money is in appliances and the worktop. One source works with roughly 40% appliances, 40% cabinets and 20% worktop. A simpler worktop or fewer built-in appliances saves more than cheaper fronts.

For the order of work and how long it takes, see how long does a kitchen renovation take. And to keep the total under control: tracking your renovation budget.
