Sliding backsplash - has anyone used one?
Comments (30)I think capturing backsplash space is a great idea, because vertical space is too often ignored. Ever since women entered the workforce, the kitchen industry has lost a lot of interest in cooking efficiency; it now defines efficiency as snacking, drinking soda and loading the DW with maximum speed. However, to pal's point, I'd be leery of things that disappear behind walls or cabinets. Once they break, they're very hard to fix....See MorePrep Sink, anyone regret having one, or just never use theirs?
Comments (27)I agree w/Ccoombs, Holligator, Gellchom, Sweeby, and others. A prep sink is not a "big kitchen" item or a "must have". It depends on location and how you use your kitchen...and not necessarily how many people are cooking at once. You say you're the only cook...will that remain so forever? Do you have children that will eventually learn to cook & work in the kitchen with you at the same time? Does cleanup go on at the same time as meal prep? If... You are the only cook & always will be, Cleaning up (by someone else) is never done while prepping and cooking is going on, No one ever needs to use the kitchen for anything else while you're prepping/cooking or cleaning up, ...and... You have sufficient space b/w the sink & range/cooktop to prep (at least 36" is recommended by the NKBA) then most likely one sink will be enough for you. Our kitchen is medium sized (main/work area is approx 14.5' x 10.5'). Both my DH & I work outside the home, so work in the kitchen only happens in the evening and making dinner often coincides with cleanup of breakfast dishes & after school snacks, as well as, sometimes, the previous night's dishes. My DH cleans up while I prep/cook. In our old L-shaped kitchen, we had a double-bowl sink w/24" b/w the sink & range. We were constantly competing for the sink...just b/c you have a double-bowl (which we did) does not guarantee two can work at the sink at the same time. You have to share the faucet as well as the floor space in front of the sink. (The 24" b/w them was also definitely an issue b/c there was not enough room for me to work as well as have ingredients and/or small appliances out at the same time...I was constantly shuffling things around.) When we redesigned our kitchen as a modified galley (short peninsula legs off one side of galley), we placed the Prep & Cooking Zones on one wall & the Cleanup Zone on the other wall. To make it work ideally, this required the addition of a prep sink on the Prep/Cooking wall. This separation of Cleanup from Prep/Cooking and the addition of the prep sink is the best thing we did in our kitchen to improve its functionality...and to improve our kitchen working relationship! Now that my children are also helping, I went from a one-cook kitchen to a two- or three-cook kitchen...still w/the addition of someone cleaning up at the same time. Sometimes all four of us are working in the kitchen at once! So, how is your kitchen used, not just for cooking, but for everything else? What about the future?...See MoreHas Anyone Here Purchased or Used One of the New GE Top Loaders?
Comments (6)Go to Automatic Washer.org. Someone there recently got one. Already a problem and they are sending it back. I think (not sure) there are also some videos there. I saw vids somewhere and it is a loud washer when washing. You will have to return to push the add water button until you get a full tub. It adds 6 gals when you push it, then for more another push the way I understand it. I would either go with a SQ or another FLor a different HE top load before this one. I believe the GE HE top load washer is much better than the one you are considering from what I have read. You Tube may have videos also....See MoreWho Vouched For the My Pillows?
Comments (57)"Does it make a difference whether someone’s attitudes are in my face or not? " That's up to you. Everyone has personal ideas, preferences, opinions. Anyone who uses their public exposure (of whatever kind) to express personal ideas that should remain private, especially such extremist and ignorant ones as he has, loses my business and earns my contempt. For me, this is the same as entertainment industry people who get off topic when being interviewed or on TV, Hobby Lobby and Chik Fil A-like companies whose owners exercise their hypocrisy, bigotry and hatred in their public conduct, and many others, same thing. They can do whatever they want and they deserve being shunned by people who resent and refuse to accept their "in the wrong place" comments or conduct motivated by extreme views that should remain private. I'll do business with a Stalinist cannibal - they'll be honest and steal your money and then eat you without saying that they're acting with divine insights and authority. Strictly lies and made-up fairy tales....See More- 8 years ago
