single trays lay flat on shelves allowing you to keep the whole volume of the inside of the cabinet instead of shrinking the inside walls to fit around the lazy susan. So the sides and corners can store more packages etc. stack cans,,,bottle water etc in those spaces..

Sink base 36''. You have 3'' smaller than a standard 36'' sink base. The largest that you can comfortably fit into the sink base and still be able to utilize the sink clips to attach it to the counter is a 30'' sink. If you cut into the sides, which support that heavy counter, and use a different sink mounting technique, you may be able to fit a standard 33'' sink into a 33'' base. But, you'll never be able to change it out if you have issues. Not witout dismantling the sink base entirely.

I was happy with the end result of the Barker cabinets. I thought they looked good and the finish seems to be very good--no damage in the year or so we had them. I actually saw them again when we visited (sold the house to a friend) and they still looked new at the two year mark. We had one place where edge banding, trim and cabinet met and the colors were not quite right. My GC made it work with some extra cover panel or something. The drawers opened and closed beautifully. My GC grumbled a bit about the door sizing and it being difficult to adjust them perfectly, but again he made it work. (He was a carpenter before he became a GC and made my bathroom vanities for me, but wouldn't do a full kitchen because of arthritis). The countertop is honed marble. I wanted a light color and Dh and I both really liked the looks of marble. I tried to find a more sensible substitute but we were never really happy with any of the other options and everything else was actually more expensive than Carrara marble--which was dirt cheap for us, almost as cheap as IKEA butcher block. We decided that we would be okay with scratches and etches. (Also Carrara can be rehoned in place, which reassured us that if we needed to make it look new for resale purposes we could) I loved that sink. It's the kohler stages 45. I wanted a second sink, mostly for the rest of the family to wash hands and get water to drink, but could not fit one in. The stages with two faucets filled that need nicely and functioned beautifully for food prep, etc. I think for induction you want a dedicated circuit and 40 amps? The appliance forum here would have the answer or someone else may chime in. I just know that out of all the great things in my kitchen, my induction range is the one I miss the most. And yes cast iron works. Anything that a magnet sticks to will generally work with induction. edited to add:. Thanks for your kind words. My kitchen was awesome due to the generous and knowlegdgable people here.

You need to make a very accurate measurement from the bottom of the top to the top of the recess cabinet rail. Is it 8 1/2" or not? If so, an 8" deep sink will fit by 1/2". The other dimensions become irrelevant. If your engineered stone is 2cm with a 2cm edge build up, the bottom of the stone has now moved up 2cm which is a strong 3/4". Now you've got 8 1/2" + 3/4" = 9 1/4" which will accommodate most sinks. On a remodel, your cabinets may need to be shimmed on the top to get to level anyway, but I'd pick up the 1/16" + needed to get a Kohler 3821 into that top anyway. Make sure the sink you pick doesn't have a centered drain please; you want your disposal to clear. I strongly recommend a large single bowl sink.
