Which is a better kitchen Alno or Siematic? any tips or opinions?

Both offer high specs albeit with significant price variance. Siematic would have higher entry costs but as a market leading brand this is not surprising. However much of its reputation is based on leading innovative features which can take 5-10 years before they percolate down to the wider market.

Siematic probably also offers a wider style choice within a rare market segment, if the look reflects your preference then you can expect to pay a premium for the pleasure. On the otherhand Alno also is a top end (but not within the rareified opulence of Siematic) kitchen supplier much better than most.

Siematic will have its own stable of sophisticted appliances (and beautiful examples of Deutsche Technik they are) but Alno is well complimented with Neff (probably the Volks choice for solid (stainless steel ) appliances.
Slightly unrelated: Compare Irish Siematic prices with German, the main Irish stockist also Rolf Benz Upmarket seating/sofas etc.

I was shocked to see the difference between Germany and Ireland for exact same products. In fact I know people who have travelled to German paid for shipment to Ireland and saved € 000's. Can only imagine what the difference might be for Kitchens?

Rolf Benz also tip top for contemporary leather sofas.
