Marissa your home is gorgeous! I think this is definitely a minimalist kitchen. And I agree with that guy with the good hair that a home needs to be functional. Enjoy!!
Hey, I'm so excited to find your channel! I'm also from Germany 🙂. Yes, there are quite a few differences between German and American homes. No air-conditioning, no built-in closets or pantries. Loved your video!
Healthy Minimalist Mom Wow, so nice to “meet” you!!! 🙌 We actually have a space in the corner of our kitchen that could be a pantry, but we are trying to figure out how we would navigate that...all in good time! It’s like a puzzle. 🧩
İ just discovered you yesterday. İ immediatly subscibed. İm watching you from Turkey. İ promise to watch all your videos. Keep it up. You are such an insperation to me. İm trying to declutter and live a minimalist life style.
I feel that a lot of minimalish people love to cook from scratch. As long as i can hide everything in cupboards and drawers, im fine with the gadgets that help me cook. Loved seeing yours. Thanks for sharing! Also, fascinating about German kitchens.
I am rewatching your older videos. We had those same dishes that were your moms when growing up. They are Corelle Corning-ware Symphony coral pink and blue pattern! Love them!
Who’s side are you on? Also, for your guesses of the price 💰 please check out the following info: - no DIY skills - high-end kitchen for 225 sq FEET ( not meters 🤦♀️) - mid-range appliances (oven, fridge and freezer, induction cooktop, sink, dishwasher) - living in big metropolitan city - 3 leather chairs - 10 foot kitchen island with granite countertop - 8 foot attached wooden bar counter - LED lighting - two pull-out pantries - soft close drawers - custom-made organization, including spice rack, metal spice jars, knife rack, silicone mats, utensil trays, bamboo boxes, cutting board - needed floor opened to island, plumbing, and electrical work
As an aesthetic ideal, fad, or style, perhaps your husband is right. For minimalism as a lifestyle, though, your kitchen is perfect! Room for what you value, without distractions. 💖
@@AtoZenLife I love soft colors (I've never felt more peaceful than when I stayed in a sky-blue bedroom!), but I also love vintage/antique/natural things.
Yes your kitchen is beautiful. I am minimalish like Erica Lucas, who I love. It seems a bit extreme in size for a Minimalist kitchen, but when you explain you very regularly have family over that makes sense. Minimalism to me is having what you need and want for you and your family and using it all. Keeping things you love very much like your Fathers knives and Mums plates is so lovely . Your kids are Beautiful btw.
I’m a huge fan of Erica! ✨🙌✨ Yes, I hope that soon the pandemic will be over so we can have everyone happily eating together as well again - it DOES seem like a big home until you try cramming 20+ people in (especially since there is no yard). I get so much joy from using my parents items on the daily, so glad you can appreciate that! Take care and see you around! 👋 (And thank you for your kinds words re: my boys!)
Show me the Money. I'd really be interested in the cost of your kitchen. I love your kitchen. I think you probably researched it well so you got the best deal. My first thought is $20K, but you shared much higher numbers so I really don't know. I have white Cutco knives too and I love them. Drawers are so great to use for storage. It's the best storage because the drawers pull out so you don't lose stuff and the entire space is usable. I love the fridge. It's not that big but you can see everything in it. I live alone and cook for myself always, so that would work for me. Thanks for the tour.
Hi amazing kitchen!!!! I'm absolutely in loooove! Me and my boyfriend guessed around 17 000€ (I'm leaning more around 20 000€...). The video now has 14 000 Views 👏🏽Did you guys reveal the cost of the Kitchen yet?
Show me the money! My guess is $22k. It's an absolutely gorgeous kitchen that I'm certain would cost far more in the states. New subscriber here. I'm hooked, Marissa!!! 👏👏👏
I love your channel! Thank you for sharing all you know about minimalism 😊 We are also a family of 4 and I'm trying to catch up with your videos before we move to our new home. We are planning on decluttering before to move in only with what we really need. We also need to buy a new kitchen (moving within Austria) and for that showmethemoney! 😊 Thank you!
My family and I lived in Germany for three years a very long time ago! Our kids were very young , they have families of their own now, I enjoyed seeing all the interesting things and ways that are so different than America! I really like your kitchen,so different than when we lived there! Germany was our first foreign country we lived in, was homesick some but got over it after meeting some ladies to go sightseeing with! Husband was at work and kids just go with the flow 💐
Love this kitchen! Great tour 🤩 Just a thought.. Another option is to put toaster, coffee maker etc out on the countertop for ease of use and hide with the rolling panel. Then put glass jars of foods on the shelves or something else decorative. Like creating a coffee station or breakfast station 🤷🏻♀️
Yeah I thought the same. I would put my appliances I use frequently (coffee machine, foodprocessor and blender) on the counter and hide it behind the sliding door when not in use (I wouldn't use the appliances as often if I had to put them away in a cabinet after each use). The shelves above I would probably use for nice looking jars with dry foods in it.
Your kitchen is huge ! Much bigger than ours (in France). And your fridge too. I can't imagine what size your fridge in the US was ! Ours is like the one in your previous appartement. Your kitchen is also beautiful, very luxurious
Wow! Houses in Germany don't come with built-in kitchens?! 😳 In South Africa, ours usually come with kitchen cupboards, sinks & built in stoves etc, but you typically supply your own fridge/freezer & dishwashing/laundry appliances etc. The European size fridge/freezer & small grocery storage cupboards are more typical here as well so that isn't a big surprise to me (I have done much drooling over American Style Walk-In Pantry organisation videos 😉)
In the last 3 years I lost my mom and my brother, so I suddenly have a LOT of stuff do deal with including a 110 year old house, so can related to a lot of this! I'm curious about two things that you didn't mention in the kitchen. 1) What are the chrome fixtures to the left of the sink? 2) in the cabinet with the big mason jars and mystery tea, is there an outlet inside the cabinet? Your whole home is beautiful, great job with the kitchen!
Seeing your kitchen brings back fond memories of going on exchange to Germany (from Australia) when I was in high school. Almost 20 years ago 🫢 I’ve only made it back to Germany once since then. I hope to go again in a few years. I’m so envious of you living in Berlin. What a fantastic and interesting city. I’d love to know more about what it’s like to live there? Thanks for sharing your beautiful kitchen xx
Your Mom was absolutely beautiful honey. I am so very sorry you lost your parents. Your new kitchen is gorgeous! They do still make high quality pots and pans in Germany and France. I've amassed a collection of them. They have moved everywhere with me. Much love from another former Indiana girl. xo
I have a minimalist kitchen but if you just quickly looked at it you wouldn't think it was as its so small. However there is only what we need and use. From the UK, everything including fridges in much smaller and more expensive Europe. I hate cooking BTW.
Small kitchens are definitely more challenging! I think it’s ironic that my largest kitchen has the least amount of stuff. 😅 So do you order out most of your meals if you hate cooking? Cheers.
Wonderful kitchen. Who cares what someone else’s minimalist kitchen looks like. Your new oven will be so much easier to use than the last one. The more you show, the more I love the cabinets. Yes please tell the price.
Thank you, I agree 💯! You are so right about the oven, I still remember the time I accidentally dropped the oven door at 7 AM and it SHOOK the walls. 😅
Honestly, watching your videos helps me learn the names of some stuff that I need; but because I don't know the names, I don't know how to search for them. Thank you! XD
The minimalist mom has lots of color and a really pretty and calm looking home. You have kids! Who in their right mind has all white with kids! it's beautiful, sleek and modern and does what you want and I'm going to steal the ideas for a galley kitchen for my cabin (my distant future cabin . . ) I agree with YOU. I think fridges are smaller because daily shopping is still a thing there. Show me the money, and I guess 7k euros for the units and about the same for labor, so 15K euros. What are the standard dimensions, like how many feet long and wide for the two units, just out of curiosity.
Jessie C I love Dawn’s kitchen! Funny you should say that about white - Jordan Page from Fun Cheap or Free sweats white is easier to keep clean instead? Yes, we shop daily here, most people do! We keep more in our fridge than “typical” Germans I think. 🤔 Thanks for your guess!
I love kitchens in Germany and that’s one thing I really miss about living in Germany. It’s such a hassle to install your own whenever you move but at the same time you can call it your own and chose your own design so that’s great. That’s a pretty large kitchen so my guess is 15,000 euros
I don't know why people from North America think fridges in Europe are small and that you can't ever get ones that are even close to the size available in North America, um, yes you can, they are totally available. I feel like she wanted a hidden built in fridge and maybe only those sizes are available, but for free standing fridges, yeah, you can definitely get the bigger ones. Here's the thing, in general, large appliances like stove/oven, dishwasher, fridge, washing machine (because in Europe it's common to put a front loading washer in the kitchen) are all 60cm/24 inches wide standard, it just makes it easier to figure out what will fit, there are different sizes, but 60cm is the main standard, which is smaller than the ones in North America. So it's easier to find a fridge that's 60cm wide but SUPER tall, like so tall you need a step ladder to get to the top, lol, I'm not kidding, lol, like there are some that are 6'8"/203cm tall but super narrow
i once paid an absurd amount for a kitchen which we left when we sold our house, the following time i went to ikea for a fraction of the price and it worked just as well as the expensive one ! ikea every time !
@@marlochante1211 Right! I worry thinking about when we have all 20+ of us and my in-laws here, and then how do we fit everyone... we have a plan, that’s a whole TH-cam video in itself. 😅
Marissa: Squirrels of a Feather - Well, I’ve only had one and the model I have is the A2300 Ascent Series. It works great for what I do with it which is pretty much smoothies, sauces and soups. I have a friend who cooks from scratch wayyyyy more than me and she uses it to “grate” cheese and “chop” veggies 🤷♀️ I’m betting there’s some awesome TH-cam tutorials on all the things you can do with it. The coolest thing I think it does is make hot soup! You blend it on high long enough and the soup gets hot!
Katie Soderling I just realized I had a friend who had one in college - I thought the heating thing was so fancy back then. 🤭🤩 Thanks for the tips! Maybe I will get huge on TH-cam and Vitamix will give me a free one...😂
Erica Lucas YES! Renters even take their kitchens with them - one girl told me her parents had 3 in their basement because they kept moving and changing kitchens. 😂
Marissa: Squirrels of a Feather - That’s so interesting! I’ve always had the impression that Europe was way ahead of the US when it comes to planet friendly practices. That seems excessive and unnecessary to me 🤔
Katie Soderling Oh they absolutely are! Most people just don’t move as often, and if they do they would sell their kitchens if they didn’t fit the new place! It is (IMHO) very unusual to keep so many kitchens, hahaha.
most people try to sell the kitchen to the new people who will rent the place. But you don't always get to know the new renters or they don't have the same taste. I absolutely dislike that about Germany. Of course it gives you the chance to have a kitchen you really like and plan it individually but it makes moving much more expensive. One of the reasons I haven't moved out of my current appartment btw: beautiful kitchen
Show me the money... I’m going to guess $35K (and that's a high guess) . I think you should have asked a FB group that did budget renos, because I know you are thrifty! LOL! Also, did you say the counter is granite? And, I love the glass backsplash idea... I think I’ll steal that! So much storage!!!
Why do you need a refrigerator if you have cold weather for six months and two balconies? 🤔 in the cold season, I store many products on the balcony or in the pantry in the garage👍
Gorgeous!!! Absolutely gorgeous!!! Quick question. How else re you dealing with no range hood? I am contemplating not to install one in the new kitchen but worry about the splatter.
Your kitchen looks amazing 😍. I am going to guess that it cost you 27000 Euro's. You must have spent about 4000 Euro's for the appliances, I spotted AEG they are a great brand with mid to high end prices. And the rest on labor and materials. What I am interested is the total size of your apartment and how much it cost? I am always curious as to how property is priced. I sometimes look at property listing in different European cities just for curiosity sake 🤷🤪
Show me the money! 😉 I'm guessing 10K 1. Because of finding ways to do it yourself and save in other fashions. 2. Because we do "need" to update and refurbish some things around here... And I'm really hoping for a lower price tag than those estimates! 😆
I’m gonna keep my fingers crossed for you, there’s always ways to save! We definitely don’t have any DIY skills, but those can save you big 💰. I added a little bit more information to my comment above to make guessing easier. 😁
Dana Brown Welcome!!! ✨🙌✨ Yes, no specific video but I have mentioned it here and there - my husband’s huge family is here and we love the social perks, green spaces, and slower life Berlin has to offer. I hope to make videos about that soon. We loooove Germany. One thing I dislike though? Every playground is SAND. My kids come home filthy with sand in their pockets most days. 😂😭
Hi Marissa, I love your kitchen you can tell it is very high quality. Maybe you got it a little cheaper if it was a Musterküche (sample kitchen / for display) in the showroom. The price of the kitchen is higher than the furniture of my entire apartment 🤣
The most functional and beautiful kitchen i have ever seen!!! I moved 13 times in my live. Kitchen was always the most important thing for me. Can you tell me the brand or the companie from the kitchen? Thx you for the video. Love your family! Greetings from switzerland
Beautiful kitchen, I'm in the process of buying my very first kitchen and boy is it hard to choose. Seeing yours makes me wanna go all wood in stead of light grey! I would guess the price at maybe 27000 euros?
@@Saraaah23 Are you in Germany? That could be relevant too. Message me on Instagram and I will share the price and some tips with you -- I don't want to spoil the secret here. ;) DM me and say you are the girl with the kitchen question! The sink is Blanco, I will have to ask my husband about the faucet because I can't see a brand. We LOOOOOOVE this kitchen.
Soooo funny to see how an american mum is adapting to european lifestyle including... Fridge size! It's not German size, it's European size 😉😉😉😅 congratulations for your BEAUTIFUL house! So good to know you live by this size of the ocean! Kisses from Italy! 💕💋😊
To me a minimalist kitchen is you have what you have there because it's what you use. It's not supposed to look like someone that always goes out to eat. So one man's minimal might be another person's maximum. It's all in balance and needs. It's like people. You know you have certain people in your life that you want to have minimal contact with? They're going to little bit but let's keep it minimal. And then you have maximum people in your life which give an a maximum amount of wow. Sometimes good sometimes not good. So it's a balance. Please tell your husband you love him dearly. But you really don't always need him to tell you when it's a minimal not enough or too much. Good heavens. That would be like giving up your washer and dryer. Now a minimalist might say, "well I can beat my clothes on a rock and lay them out on the grass to dry. That's pretty minimal. Do you want to do it? Hell no, speaking for myself. I think you are doing a lovely job. Really and truly. (And I always use too many words. Minimal and my word usage are not mutually compatible at times. I like to write ). But I offer you peace and blessings. And much joy. Gail in Central Florida Thursday, April 8, 2021.
I am currently planning to redo our kitchen, it needs to be ripped out, walls coming down and starting from scratch 😬😬😬. I have no idea how much it's going to cost 🤪.
Island Girl Thanks so much! 🥰 I taught myself actually, and then I was pretty proficient already when we moved to live in Shanghai. I did get a teacher once we lived there, but I already spoke conversational level Mandarin. Now I have to learn German. 😳😳😳
Show me the money. I guess 25.000€. I live in Germany. I’m interested in the brand as well! No correction: I guess 35.000€ and up, because of the counter tops.
If you want to message me on Instagram, I can send you more details privately. I hope to update with a video about this soon! 😆👍 just tell me you are “Marlou from TH-cam” if you message me from IG, just in case your name doesn’t match.
This is the most beautiful kitchen I have ever seen.

Marissa: Squirrels of a Feather - Oh and you can get a refurbished one for much cheaper.
Katie Soderling I just realized I had a friend who had one in college - I thought the heating thing was so fancy back then. 🤭🤩 Thanks for the tips! Maybe I will get huge on TH-cam and Vitamix will give me a free one...😂
We’ve had our vita mix over 10 yrs now and use it daily, I would definitely buy another if ours ever breaks
I LOVE THE KITCHEN!
Oh my God I love the rods to hold the pans. That's half the battle. Not that I have a lot of pants but Gosh..
Great videos. I'm gonna sub!
What a beautiful kitchen, i couldn't guess how much it could be but sure its worth every penny! "Show me the money, please" :- )
Most homes in Germany don’t come with kitchens?! Today is the day I learned that.
Erica Lucas YES! Renters even take their kitchens with them - one girl told me her parents had 3 in their basement because they kept moving and changing kitchens. 😂
Marissa: Squirrels of a Feather - That’s so interesting! I’ve always had the impression that Europe was way ahead of the US when it comes to planet friendly practices. That seems excessive and unnecessary to me 🤔
Katie Soderling Oh they absolutely are! Most people just don’t move as often, and if they do they would sell their kitchens if they didn’t fit the new place! It is (IMHO) very unusual to keep so many kitchens, hahaha.
Marissa: Squirrels of a Feather - Ah that’s makes more sense! Lol!
most people try to sell the kitchen to the new people who will rent the place. But you don't always get to know the new renters or they don't have the same taste. I absolutely dislike that about Germany. Of course it gives you the chance to have a kitchen you really like and plan it individually but it makes moving much more expensive. One of the reasons I haven't moved out of my current appartment
btw: beautiful kitchen
What kind of coffee maker? I like the look of it , big coffee drinkers!!
Hey Bonnie, not sure where you live but here is the link where we got it in Germany! amzn.to/3gjJlGk
Show me the money... I’m going to guess $35K (and that's a high guess) . I think you should have asked a FB group that did budget renos, because I know you are thrifty! LOL! Also, did you say the counter is granite? And, I love the glass backsplash idea... I think I’ll steal that! So much storage!!!
Julie B. Nah, I specially asked them for higher-end kitchen prices! Yes, the counter is granite! Thanks for checking it out. ✌️☺️
It looks incredible! I agree with your take. Also, I guess $35,000.
You chose well! 😊🙌
Such a beautiful and functional kitchen! Moving could be harder when you have to move the whole kitchen though.
Wow beautifull kitchen
Why do you need a refrigerator if you have cold weather for six months and two balconies? 🤔 in the cold season, I store many products on the balcony or in the pantry in the garage👍
You should do some black walls like in 'House of Valentina' -> matte black trend.
TEFAL is the very best brand on pots pans and fry pans on Europe! Im European they are amazing!
Gorgeous!!! Absolutely gorgeous!!! Quick question. How else re you dealing with no range hood? I am contemplating not to install one in the new kitchen but worry about the splatter.
Wow that kitchen is so beautiful. Edit: also I’m so glad you didn’t go all white / farmhouse kitchen
I love this kitchen 🥰😍😍😍
The kitchen is stunning! As far as the price goes, I'd think it's definitely over 50k. My guess is 62500 € :-)
Your kitchen looks amazing 😍. I am going to guess that it cost you 27000 Euro's. You must have spent about 4000 Euro's for the appliances, I spotted AEG they are a great brand with mid to high end prices. And the rest on labor and materials. What I am interested is the total size of your apartment and how much it cost? I am always curious as to how property is priced. I sometimes look at property listing in different European cities just for curiosity sake 🤷🤪
Could you tell me what kind of rice cooker you have? Thank you. New to your channel and I am loving it!
I just have to know what a kitchen like this costs! PLEASE! This would be a dream kitchen for me...even with half the space!
Show me the money! I love your kitchen! It is beautiful!
Show me the money! 😉 I'm guessing 10K
1. Because of finding ways to do it yourself and save in other fashions.
2. Because we do "need" to update and refurbish some things around here... And I'm really hoping for a lower price tag than those estimates! 😆
I’m gonna keep my fingers crossed for you, there’s always ways to save! We definitely don’t have any DIY skills, but those can save you big 💰. I added a little bit more information to my comment above to make guessing easier. 😁
I am new to your channel (I LOVE your kitchen) and so I don't know if you ever shared why you moved to Germany, and how you are liking it?!
Dana Brown Welcome!!! ✨🙌✨ Yes, no specific video but I have mentioned it here and there - my husband’s huge family is here and we love the social perks, green spaces, and slower life Berlin has to offer. I hope to make videos about that soon. We loooove Germany. One thing I dislike though? Every playground is SAND. My kids come home filthy with sand in their pockets most days. 😂😭
Hi Marissa, I love your kitchen you can tell it is very high quality. Maybe you got it a little cheaper if it was a Musterküche (sample kitchen / for display) in the showroom. The price of the kitchen is higher than the furniture of my entire apartment 🤣
The most functional and beautiful kitchen i have ever seen!!! I moved 13 times in my live. Kitchen was always the most important thing for me. Can you tell me the brand or the companie from the kitchen? Thx you for the video. Love your family! Greetings from switzerland
Hallo 🙋♀️ from Germany! The brand is “Lechner”. Cheers and take care.
Wow gorgeous gorgeous kitchen! I'd guess 25k USD. New subscriber here! 😊
Love love love
How much of of the kitchen stuff did you bring from the states? Did you have stuff shipped ahead or have them in your checked luggage?
Beautiful kitchen, I'm in the process of buying my very first kitchen and boy is it hard to choose. Seeing yours makes me wanna go all wood in stead of light grey! I would guess the price at maybe 27000 euros?
Also, what brand are your sink and faucet? They look stunning! And I love the foot activated trash cabinet.
@@Saraaah23 Are you in Germany? That could be relevant too. Message me on Instagram and I will share the price and some tips with you -- I don't want to spoil the secret here. ;) DM me and say you are the girl with the kitchen question! The sink is Blanco, I will have to ask my husband about the faucet because I can't see a brand. We LOOOOOOVE this kitchen.
@@AtoZenLife Thanks so much! I'm in Belgium actually, but any tips are very much appreciated! :) I've sent you a message
Soooo funny to see how an american mum is adapting to european lifestyle including... Fridge size! It's not German size, it's European size 😉😉😉😅 congratulations for your BEAUTIFUL house! So good to know you live by this size of the ocean! Kisses from Italy! 💕💋😊
My issue is the closets and Im european 🤣
Love it!! What is the name or colour of your kitchen? How would I find your exact kitchen at IKEA?
To me a minimalist kitchen is you have what you have there because it's what you use. It's not supposed to look like someone that always goes out to eat. So one man's minimal might be another person's maximum. It's all in balance and needs.
It's like people. You know you have certain people in your life that you want to have minimal contact with? They're going to little bit but let's keep it minimal. And then you have maximum people in your life which give an a maximum amount of wow. Sometimes good sometimes not good. So it's a balance. Please tell your husband you love him dearly. But you really don't always need him to tell you when it's a minimal not enough or too much. Good heavens. That would be like giving up your washer and dryer. Now a minimalist might say, "well I can beat my clothes on a rock and lay them out on the grass to dry. That's pretty minimal. Do you want to do it? Hell no, speaking for myself. I think you are doing a lovely job. Really and truly. (And I always use too many words. Minimal and my word usage are not mutually compatible at times. I like to write ). But I offer you peace and blessings. And much joy. Gail in Central Florida Thursday, April 8, 2021.
Show me the month, I did my counting and I come to 11k for the kitchen but this might be too optimistic so my guess will be between 12k and 14k :) ???
Love your channel.. I also live in Germany and I would love to know where did you get your kitchen and how much did it cost.
Do you have a link for your polka dot Rollie cart?!
Show me the Money!!! 💵 my guess $35K. Obsessed with your channel. Learned so much already. You have a lifelong subscriber from Australia.
Show me the money 🤣😊👍 love the kitchen 10-15k….but it looks like so much more
That is just wild that in Germany they have to have portable WHOLE KITCHENS(!) that they have to move around with them! 🤯🤯🤯
I am currently planning to redo our kitchen, it needs to be ripped out, walls coming down and starting from scratch 😬😬😬. I have no idea how much it's going to cost 🤪.
Beautiful kitchen. My guess is $37,000! Everything looks high end.
Elizabeth Callihan Thank you so much and thanks for the guess! Cheers. ✨
Haven’t a clue but show us the money!!!
Beautiful kitchen girl. Question...how did you learn to speak Mandarin?
Island Girl Thanks so much! 🥰 I taught myself actually, and then I was pretty proficient already when we moved to live in Shanghai. I did get a teacher once we lived there, but I already spoke conversational level Mandarin. Now I have to learn German. 😳😳😳
Your hair is gorgeous
Keri E Thank you! I did the heartless overnight curls with the bathrobe trick - it was a winner!
🎉🎉🎉
Do you have option to ask next renter if they would like to buy your kitchen?
Love your kitchen, I'd have to say this kitchen set was about $17,000. Thats my guess. The whole renovation maybe $20,000
Show me the money. I guess 25.000€. I live in Germany. I’m interested in the brand as well! No correction: I guess 35.000€ and up, because of the counter tops.
If you want to message me on Instagram, I can send you more details privately. I hope to update with a video about this soon! 😆👍 just tell me you are “Marlou from TH-cam” if you message me from IG, just in case your name doesn’t match.
