I really like it, but I wouldn't want it Re: Round kitchen top....want it so much!! pics included! 16Jun 03, 2010 12:08 am This is a high end kitchen for a couple or single person with no children. It would look good in a swanky apartment , but it is not for us plebs. It would be a starbucks in the morning, sushi for lunch and lucky to be home for dinner one night a week. No spagetti bol would ever go near it Re: Round kitchen top....want it so much!! pics included! 17Jun 03, 2010 11:04 am Hey guys thanks for replies. My sales rep said he can go around get quotes for me before pre-start so that i can make up my mind prior to that. I don't agree that it's just for busy life-style kitchen.(not that I'm not busy..haha) My mum had kitchen like that (without round top) she had the cooktop on the island I used to sit around ALL THE TIME watch her cooking...maybe that's where I learnt all the cookings. I never thought it was dangerous even when I was younger. my partner and I both work full-time no kids, not planning to have one anytime soon, we eat almost every dinner at home except for weekends, and i don't see why it should be a problem. Only thing my partner worries is that he doesn't like the idea of having the cook top right next to the hall way so that the first thing you see when you walk into the living room is the COOKTOP I don't see what's wrong with that, but he reckons it'll look funny..... I still really really want it, kinda wanna prove everyone i was right too,,,(no offence or anything) I think it'll work fine. just need to get quotes Ps. I found the same range hood ,800 each.....from overseas:) Re: Round kitchen top....want it so much!! pics included! 18Jun 03, 2010 11:24 am can you lift up the long bit of bench so that all you would have is the round bit coming out of the floor? that would be cool it looks like it belongs in a tv cooking show. it would definitely not work for me, but if you love it, go for it! let us know how you go with the builder "Your emotions are the slaves to your thoughts, and you are the slave to your emotions." — Elizabeth Gilbert Living in our new house.

I found the same range hood ,800 each.....from overseas:) This shouldn't be your main focus here. You and your partner are building a house to suit yourselves. If you love it and it falls into your budget then you should do it. Don't focus on what anyone else likes or dislikes. Me personally I don't like it at all. Then again I cannot stand the idea of a cooktop on any bench. BUT my kitchen is built to suit me (not even DH got a choice in my kitchen as he does not cook at all) and many people here probably question how I designed it. Also be careful looking at appliances from overseas - you need to check wattage and power sources to see if they can be used here. Some things are worth waiting for. Re: Round kitchen top....want it so much!! pics included! 20Jun 03, 2010 11:50 am Thanks for the reply:) I don't really care what other people think , well at least I thought that I don't but I still need to see how much they hate it cause I might sell the house in few year's time? I saw couple of people being very against to cook top being on island bench and I don't agree at all but when it comes down to selling the house, I need to consider what is acceptable in general too I reckon. that's the only reason I put up the thread on the forum. I like odd things, I hate normal stuff ....me personally think all the kitchens these days look so much the same from one another. they're all nice...people spend heaps of money on kitchen these days cause kitchen itself can sell the house, but I hate the idea of spending thousands of $$$$ and get exactly same kitchen as next door. that's just me. thanks for valuable advice. I agree with you that it needs to suit me. I personally think it will, I won't have exactly same as the picture of course:) But yep I'll try my best hey there! 😊 so, it’s kinda common for standard drawer depths to be around 500mm since most cabinets use this size to fit the usual runners… 3 20890 I would be wary. Is you site demilished but nothing else done? Sounds like liquidity problems to me. Our builder did the same. Got hundreds of thousands of dollars of… 2 15390 Sounds like rubbish to me. Ask for the contamination report which I doubt they have. If it's part of a normal subdivision it would have had a contamination report done… 9 5641 |
