[quote=Anonymous]I'm pretty basic. My current kitchen has one outlet, no dishwasher, and no pantry. So anything would be an improvement.

Must haves are a lot of counter space (a large island would also work), cabinets, and drawers. Nothing open or glass.

Must not haves - absolutely no range in the middle of the island. Drives me crazy and very unsafe. I also don't like built-in trash but it sounds like most other people do.

I like a kitchen with a compact working area and then more open to a larger room that can be a dining area or living room. My ideal kitchen has the footprint of a basic large galley kitchen, but open. I have cooked for nearly 20 years in tiny kitchens. I don't want to have to go around an entire room collecting stuff. 3 steps between each appliance, counters, and sink, and I am happy. I detest my parents' gorgeous designer kitchen which has the fridge, oven, stove, range, and sink all around the room, and you have to walk around the huge island to get to each one. Incredibly inefficient.[/quote]
