I couldn't agree more! Neither could my wife. Unfortunately, neither one of us thought about that when we installed our granite countertop a couple of years ago. Rather than changing the existing floor plan, we simply replaced the then existing melamine countertop. The kitchen, wall to wall, is roughly 11'x13'. Countertops and the refrigerator take up a big chunk of that. The double ovens are stacked in the corner, and the cooktop is built into the countertop.

Looking back, we would have been much better off extending the kitchen area into the breakfast room, by at least 4 or 5 feet or so. A curved countertop would have been nice too. Damn the hindsight!!!
