Finding a kitchen

I’m looking for a black/near black modern slab kitchen with handles:

Like this IKEA one, but the reviews make it a no! www.ikea.com/gb/en/p/kungsbacka-door-anthracite-20337341/

Wren option is the Contour in Nero - but I wasn’t blown away with quality of the doors/carcasses.

Where else is reasonably priced? Ideally will need finance.

And, more to the point, am I mad having a dark matt kitchen? Does anyone here have one? Love or loath? My OH isn’t keen, but I’m sick of shaker cream & just want something different! The kitchen is large(ish) with bifolding doors so light. Would like a white marble looking quartz worktop if budget allows.

TIA

I have dust grey which I love. I liked the graphite colours was wasn't convinced it wasn't a bit too dark.

I’m just not into the grey trend but all of the options seem to be greys.

I love that in frame slab! Problem is will probably cost a lot more as none of the places I’ve looked at offer such. It’s either plain slab or shaker...

Black shows all the marks. I spend hours trying to keep it clean

the one weve got has a pelmet and cornice with end panels that gives it the in frame look without the cost

@isseywith4vampirecats do you have a photo please?

I’ve totally gone off the black idea now after all that! So back on the hunt...

Is it dates now to have a dark island & light units?

@Sunisshining12 this is how it looks
