Kitchen Island
Cooking is a lot of fun when you have the right gear, but preparing a delicious meal can be tough when you don't have enough room. If you're looking to for more space to get your culinary juices flowing kitchen islands are a great place to start. They give you more surface area for slicing and dicing, can add some design flavor to your kitchen, and they help organize your kitchen more effectively. If that sounds good to you, read on to find out more.
Kitchen Cart: For someone who needs an agile piece of cooking equipment a kitchen cart will work best for you. These island types come with wheels on the bottom so you can zip around your kitchen in style. They also come with brakes on the wheels so if you need your islands stationary you have that option as well.
Butcher block: If you're cutting meat frequently a butcher block will make your life much easier. A butcher block is a kitchen island with a thick wooden table top. The wood makes a good surface for using as a cutting board. The thickness is good because as you get scratches from using the cutting board you can sand them out to get the table shining again in no time.
Prep table: More lightweight than the butcher block. The prep table gives you some extra room to slice, dice, and prepare your food for cooking. You can get them in stainless steel or wood depending on what fits your style.
Microwave cart: light weight and easy to move. These are used mainly as a place to hold your kitchen microwave if you don't have a hanging one.
Drawers: some extra drawers are fantastic on kitchen island for storing pots and pans that you may need as you cook. You can get different amounts and sizes for however much you need.
Open storage: sometimes when your cooking you need your tools fast. This is when having open shelving can come in handy. Need some herbs or a serving plate quickly? Not a problem when you have easy access to them on a lower shelf where you work.
Towel Rack: Often you need to wash your hands when you cook to stay clean. Having a towel close by can be handy which is why getting a kitchen island with a towel rack is a good idea for any home cook.
Trash Bin: To keep a clean cooking area you need to get rid of the excess food you don't use. Nothing can make this faster than having a trash bin close by. If you do a great deal of cooking a trash bin will be the cherry on top of any kitchen island you can find.
