Mr. Kitch, I have to tell you that you are head and shoulders above every other channel I have seen and I have seen many "kitchen experts". Wow, to the point, no clickbait and weird fake personality, and very knowledgeable PLETHORA of wonderful tips. A ton of common sense that I never stopped to think about. When you speak of cm's could you flash feet and inches on the screen because we Americans don't speak that language. Otherwise love you to death. You are MUCH appreciated. You have saved me from living with regrets already. Now I have to binge watch, but you are pleasant to listen to and very interesting. Thanks again.

@neilpickup237 2 месяца назад

Concise and to the point. As for drawers - agreed. My housing unit should have come with a lower cupboard, but I had the fitter change it to a drawer. Best decision I made. Also, consider plinth drawers, especially if you are pushed for space. Yes, they are expensive for what you gain, but having somewhere to keep that oversized plate that only comes out for the Christmas turkey and other rarely used items is a godsend. Range cookers may be the fashion, but are often far more difficult to keep clean than integrated. Especially down the sides! Just don't get me started on those 'fancy' greasetrap knobs so often fitted. Rather than taking what seems to be the accepted default of the oven under the hob, I would consider that placement as the last resort - especially, if like me, you are getting older, and still have a few cast iron items! Oh, and if you insist on fitting the kitchen yourself, remember that a set square is a better friend than a spirit level. You can think that you have perfect levels, but without being perfectly square, forget about successfully aligning doors! Finally, empy space above items in a cupboard is wasted space - consider additional shelves.

@barbaraeaton9266 2 месяца назад

😢what is a plinth drawer?

@neilpickup237 2 месяца назад

@barbaraeaton9266 It is a drawer underneath the unit replacing a section of plinth, or kickplate depending on where in the world you live.

@rockshot100 2 месяца назад

@@barbaraeaton9266 He means "toe kick". So instead of that very bottom touching the floor empty, you could put a drawer there, for skillets. cookie sheets, silverware, etc. I love this guy. I have the most trouble with his centimeters, American here and I don't speak that language.

@teri-joscott8279 2 месяца назад

Wow, speed round of kitchen design. Love it!! I have never before heard of measuring to your wrist bone when standing straight to get the proper countertop height. I've always felt as though my countertops were too high--I prefer to roll things out on my dining table--but according to this method, my countertops need to drop by 3.5 inches (almost 9 cm). Very valuable information to have!! And, a point well made as I want to be in the room where it happens 😉 when any decisions are made for the countertop fabrication or anything, really. As always, thank you Michael for sharing your expertise. Wonderful content.!

@ania7930 Месяц назад

Current trend is to make the countertops much higher- ca. 10 cm below elbows. It is better for literally anything but kneading the dough, in which case the dining table should do the trick. If you plan on lowering you countertops in the future really consider all activities you performin the kitchen. I know I dislike my low countertops (which are still much higher than this video recommends - 90 cm) and I absolutely detest my super low (83 cm) bathroom sink. And I am just 165 cm high, which isn't tall at all. I just wanna say you do you, but be mindfulf of all the consequences of the decision.

I’m short so I went around the house looking for something that hit at my wrist bone. I have to say that seems too short to me unless it was to be for kneading dough which I don’t do often. I think the US standard of 36” feels fine to me, even though it hits me about 2” below the bend of my elbow. I think being off on the tall side is probably better than being off on the short side, since the latter is more likely to cause back issues. Loved the little shout out to MTKD on the blocked corner idea.

I'm 5'6" and this measuring method would put counters at the top of my thighs. He has to have misspoken. Also, having counters in a non-standard height can ruin the resale of a home. People don't want to buy a house if they can't function in the most important room in the house or will have to redo the most expensive part. Stick with recommendations from your designer.

@JanG_GC Месяц назад

Agree with you both. I stood up, found that was lower than our dining table (too low to work at).

Great job, Michael, you made it with time to spare 🙂One thing i'm confused about, and i discovered this by accident (you'd think i would have figured it out much earilier #doh). On my range hood, the baffles only cover the back burners and lights cover the front. If the baffles aren't going to cover the burners most of us use the most, how is a hood any better than an OTR microwave?

@pamelatadeo8036 2 месяца назад

Hi. Thank you for creating very informative videos about home construction, particularly about the hear of the house - the kitchen. I hope you could also provide useful ideas specific for kitchens in hot climates (tropics) because, for one, white kitchens aren't practical at all. Also, assume that there isn't much help from automated assistance such as dishwashers. I am looking forward to this video content.

@dolorescordell129 2 месяца назад

Re counters next to stove: ABSOLUTELY agree. I have seen dozens of new kitchens with the stove in an alcove with little or no space next to it. What are those people thinking??? Do they pay ANY attention to how real people work in real kitchens???

@rusticrye5413 2 месяца назад

I hear what you say about drawer units. We have an 18-year old IKEA Faktum kitchen which needs replacement fronts and side panels (currently being made by a company that uses Ikea's original Faktum templates). We'd have liked to convert most of our base units from cupboards to drawers, but the prices were eye-watering! We will be converting one, though, a 30cm wide unit that has always been difficult to use because it's so narrow. That should make the contents much more accessible. ☺️

@kathydurow6814 2 месяца назад

Maybe consider instead of a full drawer replacement, a shelf on the base (retro fit) with a slight lip that slides out? Not quite as good, but still more accessible than having to reach/crawl into the back of your lower cabinets.

@jenniferkannapel9450 2 месяца назад

Love your videos. ty. PLEASE don't recommend 36" for a kitchen with drawers or doors on even one side of a work space (as shown in your example). That 36" min is only if a passby with nothing that opens into it. No frig, no doors, no drawers. Having been in several kitchens that used that minimum I can confirm that it is simply not enough distance for kitchen usabiliy. An exception may be in a studio apartment with one person max ever in the kitchen.

@cakedupkevin 2 месяца назад

Lol have you ever been in a 1950s single family brick home’s kitchen? ZERO space to achieve even 12 inches of countertop space on either side of a cooktop area.

@dorenandsara 2 месяца назад

Yes!!! When we designed our kitchen we made the width 48 inches.

@LarisaC. 23 дня назад

On countertops: I had the backsplash tiled on top of the countertop . Didn’t think much of it at the time, but it makes replacing the countertop impossible without breaking the tiling. I think I could have avoided this. Replacing the countertop is a cheap way of renovating your kitchen.

@lauratempestini5719 2 месяца назад

Question about the hood ventilation; can a hood be place above a steam oven? For space saving in my small kitchen, I ‘d Like my stove top oven below a steam combo oven, and the a hood above. Is this possible!
