We have a rather small kitchen ourselves, probably no larger than yours. About 5 years ago we updated. New cabinets, tops and sinks from Lowe's. We did not get the top of the line, but definitely not the cheapest either. Cost us little over $10K. That included installation of the counter top. (With help of friend I installed cabinets.)

Like others have suggested, I would look elsewhere. Although the kitchen turned out well, I did have bad experience with Lowe's and installation of carpet. They used an installer that I was ready to choke. We had paid for their highest quality pad. Came home to see him putting down carpet over pad that was not the same color as all of the rooms before. When I questioned him, he said that they did not give him enough and he was using a lesser quality pad he had available. If it had been in a closet I may not have been upset, but it was over nearly half of our living room.
