Costs a couple of bucks per switch. The black makes them look so unfinished and is a bit of a pet hate of mine. I really like the black trim on the saturn outlets and are having them by choice not price. In my opinion they tie in well with the black cupboards and the (gorgeous ) black sink in screen7 kitchen. If it's a modern kitchen and saturn outlets or similar are used, then I think GPO's in an island can work. If your having black in the kitchen then it is a little bit different, and besides they don't make a black frame for obvious reasons! But on a light colour it looks unfinished. Re: GPO on Island Bench 19Jul 12, 2012 9:37 am i guess its a matter of taste..as for the surrounds.... IMO the defeat the whole purpose of forking out for saturn, the surround makes the gpo look like a standard fitting. yeah mimi we did work on the color coordination quite hard lol and ty. AJW the splashback is a frosted tempered double glazed window.

The trouble is alt0160 you either spoil the end or side of the island benchtop with a standard GPO or you install one of those evolines and spoil the clean lines of the top of the benchtop. They don't sit 100% flush with the top of the bench either. 50/50 either way and comes down to personal choice as to what looks better.
