Where does the Espresso machine go? Where is the 25K BTU Gas Wok Burner, with over sized range hood to suck up all the smoke? Why one of those Induction cook tops and not a semi pro gas range (you don't get enough o heat out of those Inductions), Where is the Warming oven? The Island is a waste as it has no utilitarian work value. To sit down to eat at the Island is such an American cliche.

On a personal note you have to bend over and dig through those bottom drawer refers to find what you want. You do have the double ovens and the cabinetry and counter top does look pretty...a walk in Pantry is nice...and the Sliding door to the Patio is kool so you can easily get to the BBQ area.

When I look at a kitchen I think ergonomics... how far from the fridge to the stove to the sink and Pantry..also amount of work space, cabinet space available. I cook in a kitchen

Now I will tell ya I have a big ole kitchen but you have to practically walk around the horn of Africa to get from my stove to the sink..which makes it a lousy kitchen to work in.

Your realistically practical work space is from the Sink to the Stove..


The Kegerator...is a novelty (how much beer are you really going to drink anyway to make it worthwhile? so after awhile it is just going to sit unused) And if you do drink that much U need the phone number to AA. . A sink would have been better cause then you could have put in a water line for an Espresso maker...which i understand is a personal preference...I use it everyday, and in a household so can the wifey...and MIL.

It really is a nice kitchen that could have come right out of AD...
