Although many of us covet a large, sociable kitchen, the reality is often very different, but fear not, as there is a wealth of ways to make even a small kitchen feel more spacious. For example, wall cabinets can encroach on a space and make it feel smaller, so consider removing a run of units and replacing them with open shelving. Make the most of your existing cupboard space by having a good clear out, then re-organise it with clever drawer dividers, cabinet organisers and stacking pans. Take a look at our selection of buys, which include slimline appliances, stylish cabinets and space-saving solutions.
