kitchen suite

German translation: Küchenzeile bzw. komplette Kücheneinrichtung

English term or phrase: kitchen suite
At first I thought kitchen suite might be equal to Küchengarnitur or Küchenset.
However, after Google Image Search, I've found Küchenset looks like kitchen utensil set rather than kitchen suite.
And Küchengarnitur also seems to mean kitchen utensil set except that the German expression is rather archaic (?).
I am indeed not sure if I am wrong or not.

So how can kitchen suite be translated into German?

agree  Werner Walther: Ja und nein! Wenn jemand eine Küche für einen Single, der nur Nescafé und Toast zubereitet, in Form einer Doppelkochplatte ordert, dann nutzt er das Küchenprogramm, dann hat er eine Küchenzeile, aber noch keinen Bereich für Freunde und Familie (AT).

Küchenzeile


Explanation:
Be it smaller or large, a kitchen suite entails essential kitchen board elements and utensiles, so the German term "Küchenzeile" would be the most suitable in this context.

Küchenausstattung/-suite


Explanation:
I suppose it should sound opulent or elegant and although I really resist anglicisms, i seems that "suite" has been broadly "eingedeutscht".
