what is the difference between all the different kitchens? What is a shaker?

(In over my head)

Shaker style kitchens have a particular look. I don't think any particular style of kitchen is necessarily better or worse than another, but how much room for storage you have in them is vital! :)

Shaker is just a style of cupboard door - fairly plain with a kind of raised border on each door. Difference between them all is the material used (eg solid wood / foil-wrapped MDF) and the way they look and price. That's about it really! Just look at lots and you'll catch on!

This sort of thing - simple framed doors
