How many inches is best between counter and window in kitchen?
Comments (25)aj33, I'm sorry for the delay getting back to you. We've been moving in. I don't think I have to bend any more than at my old sink. I think the key is to have the sink the right height for you. When you undermount a sink, it makes the bottom of it lower. I "test drove" many farm house sinks in the show rooms that were so deep that you would end up with an awful back ache at the end of a good wash up. I actually picked up my sink at the scratch and dent section of Ikea. I was considering undermounting their sink and wondered if it was really big enough. This one had the back lip broken off and was $25. I figured it was worth $25 to see if it would fit my cookie sheets, roasting pans and other large items. Then my builder pointed out that if I planned to undermount it, the broken bit on the back wouldn't matter. So, after I determined that it was big enough and deep enough without being too deep, we took a tile saw and sawed off the back....See MoreHelp Pick Counter Stools for my Kitchen
Comments (24)Thank you everyone for your confirmation of what I knew already. I just needed a push to make the decision. I am so bad at making decisions. I waffle back and forth and go over and over it in my head, and it is nice to have found you all to help me and give me food for thought. I have been on the kitchen forum for over a year, but I never posted much, was mostly a lurker. Many there just plain out intimidated me with their knowledge of the tiniest details of kitchen design and planning and the opinions to go with it. I did learn many things there and it helped me immensely in planning my kitchen, but I have to say I feel much more comfortable on this forum and I see myself spending much more time here now. Thanks again!...See MoreCounter height stools for warm modern kitchen?

Comments (3)A bistro table with a marble top would work if you can find it in the right size. C&B has one, but the top is too small for your area....See MoreImWithJoe
