Renovation Pains

Decorating the apartment has become rather a chore as I struggle to choose the right kitchen appliances. My personal agony is over how much to spend on a hob/hood/oven/microwave. As a non-cooking type, the specs are subsumed to cost and aesthetics. Unfortunately, these objectives don't often coincide.

Even an interior designer does not help as mine was able to convince me to keep my lime green living room wall and opt for a bright coloured sofa (fuchsia!) but no thanks to my limited budget, leaving him to choose the appliances is not an option. Otherwise, my budget would be bust three times over.
