Kitchen plan reviews

Hi all-
I've been obsessing about, uhem, I mean "planning", this kitchen for months and I think I'm coming to the end. I want to get my order in during the sale, so I better make up my mind soon!

I would love your comments since I've never planned a kitchen before. I've used ALOT of drawers, but I think those will make organizing easier for me. I am open to your opinions to the contrary, though. Also, I LOVE symmetry, and you will notice this on my oven and refrigerator walls. I'm trying to hang on to 18" drawers because I want to use an ironing board drawer to the right of the oven. If I can do this in a 36" drawer cabinet, I would be open to that instead.

My sink will be in the 36" door cabinet next to the dishwasher. Also, I am trying out different handle styles and sizes so those don't match between cabinets either.

Re: Kitchen plan reviews

Welcome! I'll take a look at your plans if I get a chance but I also suggest posting some pics because some people can't use the planner. (Save as .bmp, then use one of many graphics programs to convert to a smaller .jpg file suitable for uploading.)

Re: Kitchen plan reviews

I couldn't figure out how to save the .bmp the other night, but now I've got it.

Here's some pics of the kitchen layout to make it easier.

Re: Kitchen plan reviews

Hi again,

Where's your sink? What's the appliance in the outer corner?

Re: Kitchen plan reviews

The sink is to the right of the dishwasher. I just don't want to have the false drawer fronts on it so I am getting a 36 in door cabinet instead. The appliance in the corner is a wine refrigerator that will be accessed from the seating side of the countertop... I will have a wide countertop to allow for a breakfast bar, except that the corner will have an undercounter fridge. I've included a photo of the style of countertop I'm going for.

Thanks for looking at this for me!
