How much can I expect to pay for a new kitchen?

Give or take.

Mine has cost around £1200 so far. Still got to get worktops once I decide on type/colour.

Why does the OP mention 'including appliances', when the cost of those will vary as much as the kitchen units? .

Because they're looking at a rough price for a basic decent new kitchen.

There's some awful snobbery on this discussion! (Not from you as such).

But why would you ask on a forum what a collection of white goods would cost?
It's as vague as saying 'what new car should I buy?'
We have no idea of the kitchen size, no. of units...

Or a sensible answer could be £200 each for dishwasher, fridge, freezer, washing machine and dryer. Ballpark £1000. Plus oven hob microwave. OP is after a ballpark, not a quote.

Ummm, toaster, coffee machine, hood, oven, hob, bread maker, microwave. And that's without going into waffle iron, yogurt maker, ice cream maker blah blah.
Plus washing machines come in between £160 to over a grand. There is no sensible answer without some idea of size of kitchen and make of white goods
One of my microwaves was £300, current m/wave was £30.

I've always assembled my kitchen myself.
Cupboards, doors and top from ikea
Bosh or similar appliances with reasonable energy efficiency and of course searching for special offers.
As for the price for our small kitchen, the cupboards have never gone above £1000, all the appliances would be about £1500 (fridge-freezer, gas job, single oven, washing machine, dish washer). If you did not do it yourself I'd be shocked if £2000 would not cover all the trades. I spend . I spend £500 on t:money:he electrician last time for a full rewrire and £100 moving the washing machine point.
In my mind a bigger kitchen shouldn't be much more, it's just more cupboards and worktop, about £100/60cm.
So overall £2500-£4000 should cover it and you could go cheaper, via second hand/cheaper brand appliances. Assuming a mid level ikea kitchen is ok with you and no handholding by a kitchen sales person/kitchen designer.
Of course you can potentially safe more via buying second hand.

And you've never fitted one that cost that much (or more)?

I have fitted them at nearly three times that.

So wasn't that the point? It could cost £5k, £20k or £60k - there is no reasonable estimate anyone could give OP without knowing more. At least I think that's the point that was being made...
