[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ours is 10x4.5 ft and I really like it. Glad I extended the width from 4ft. But I have an induction cooktop in the middle. [/quote]

You ruined it with the cooktop [/quote]

Don’t really care for your rigid unimaginative design rules. What’s terrible are kitchens that look beautiful but are not functional. Didn’t want a sink in the island so drying dishes and soap holders can constantly be on display. [/quote]

I went back and forth on adding a sink and decided to do it.  Otherwise, I would be facing a wall with my back to my wonderful view and talking to my kids while they eat.  I am constantly cutting up fruit, salad, prepping while i talk to them while they are eating.  I hear you on the dishes in sink and water splatter, but I am glad I did it.  Jsut another example of rigid rules sometimes not working.[/quote]

I am with you.  I find huge islands with nothing on them weird - it's like an oversize buffet table/sideboard that serves no other purpose.  My island is 4x9 and that's where I do all my prep - butcher meat, clean and cut vegetables, roll out dough etc.  You can't do that without a water source.  And it's just so convenient to clean it by sweeping all the debris and prep mess from a huge surface into the sink.  [/quote]
