[quote=Anonymous]I have a relatively small kitchen and I need cabinet space to put things away AND some counter top space to do quick meals/kids craft's and such. Counting the space needed to move comfortably, open the dishwasher and the laundry closed, the biggest "furniture" I can put in the middle of my kitchen could be 30" by 52." I have two option: one is a island/cart from Crate and Barrel http://www.crateandbarrel.com/furniture/dining-kitchen-storage/belmont-white-kitchen-island/s152288 which measures 42" by 20" (with the leaf up is 30") and 36.5" high. So, the biggest advantage of this little cart is that gives me 10" of leaf plus, it has wheels to move easily through the kitchen if I need. Also, it is $400.00 cheaper than the custom made island. The second option would be a custom made island with a set of a 36" drawers, plus a 12" mini pull out pantry. I would also have an "extra edge" of 4", but not drop leaf style. The total measurements would be 52" by 30". This piece would give me much more space (the drawers are huge and deep), plus small pull out pantry style cabinet, which is really nice. However, this piece can not have wheels and it would cost $400.00 more. What would you choose?[/quote]
