Layout question (range placement)
Comments (4)Danielle, you could do a couple of things... (1) Print the PDF, take a digital picture of it, upload it to your photo hosting site, and post it here. (2) Take a screen shot of the PDF, paste it into a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation, save the page as a jepg (3) Somewhere there's a site that allows you to upload PDFs and then post them...but offhand I can't remember what site that is. +++++++++++ If BusyBMe's drawing is correct, what is the length of the countertop to the right? How far away from the corner is the sink and DW?...See MoreLayout Question re: Range placement
Comments (8)OK, thank you. I am working on getting a better/true plan with IKD so I'll have something for a better look at what my other options might be. It was the stove placement alone that I was hoping to decide on for the initial plan and then look at revisions from there. If there was a strong reason why one or the other was better, I was going to focus on getting a competent drawing made of that option, rather than do both....See MoreHelp with kitchen layout - fridge placement/move appliances?
Comments (10)The thing about moving the closet is that there is no other closet on the first floor. No coat closet, nothing. So this would be the only place for coats, vacuum cleaner, etc. Not to mention that it's old school plaster so expensive to demo out. If we removed it, what should we put in its place? The fridge with cabinets next to it?...See Morekitchen layout microwave placement
Comments (13)I would want some landing space for fridge, oven, and microwave items. So I might play around with moving either the oven cab or the pantry to the wall by the kitchen/dining doorway. Then I would move the cooktop down that cabinet run to provide at least 18 inches (more would be nice) between the moved cab and cooktop. In the now open space behind the sink, I would put in upper and lowers between the fridge and remaining tall cab. This would give you immediately adjacent landing space and provide a great place for dish storage close to the dishwasher. Thirty inch deep cabs will give you an awesome amount of dish storage in drawers. Love, love, love my dish storage drawers, and I was a skeptic but trusted GWers who are kitchen design gurus. There is not a lower door cab in my modest sized kitchen, and it is one of the best changes I made. Say yes to a 15 inch overhang...another positive change I made because of GW advice. Sorry about the damage to your previous home...how exciting to plan a new one! Good luck!...See MoreCheryl Hewitt
