Since we spend the most time in the kitchen, choosing a kitchen set is one of the most important stages that everyone who is planning a renovation will have to go through.
BelNovosti online publication expert designer Yulia Tychino told us how you can save money without compromising the quality of your kitchen.
And this is nothing more than a table top.
Quartz is used to produce the most expensive countertops, a slightly cheaper option is made from artificial stone. In addition, wooden countertops are quite common.
However, if the budget is very limited, it is worth taking a closer look at an option such as laminated chipboard.
In addition to its low cost, laminated chipboard countertops have many advantages, including a variety of designs, quick production, and easy installation.
If you decide to go with this solution, make sure that the countertop has as few joints as possible, because water can leak in, and laminated chipboard has a low level of moisture resistance, which is why the material can swell after some time.
In addition, a countertop made of MDF will be a way out of the situation, among the distinctive qualities of which are high density and the absence of toxic substances.
MDF is an environmentally friendly material that comes in a variety of colors. In addition, it is resistant to harmful microorganisms.
But there are also disadvantages: like laminated chipboard, MDF is sensitive to moisture and also has poor heat resistance.
