Buying Guide
Emily is a young, talented designer, whose professional interests gravitate towards kitchen and dining spaces. She prides herself on her attention to detail, obsession with functionality, and appreciation for craftsmanship.
Your kitchen may be small and you need an extra counter space. Drop leaf kitchen island tables easily expand by lifting the panels up and securing them. This can give you an island in the center of your kitchen for food preparation or to turn into a table with seats.
The flexibility is there for you to meet your personal needs. Some are secure and rest firmly where set, while others have wheels and can be moved around so they are out of your way when you don’t need them. This allows you to save space in small kitchens or even a large kitchen by adding room where you need it. The drop leaf kitchen island tables also often have their own shelving making them great for storage, holding things that may not fit in your cabinets.
There are many different styles of drop leaf kitchen island tables. There are your one leaf tables which often have storage drawers and cabinets as well as open shelves to hold your items for you. Some have a completely open base without shelves designed better as a table surface and can be used as a dinner table in the kitchen.
There’s also dual leaf with storage kitchen island tables that are able to work as both though you will lose some leg room. Some island tables are on wheels and can be rolled under an open counter or in a large pantry designed for accessibility.
All of these are made with different colors and styles to where you can easily find the right one for your kitchen area. They are also made with a wide variety of materials to suit your needs, as any chef knows the difference between a wood table top and a granite table top can be the difference between easy and difficult food prep. This opens up a wider variety of uses.
- It’s recommended that you keep your island table three to four feet from your counters for people to pass with ease.
- There’s also the recommendation to not interfere with your kitchen’s workspace triangle. This is the fridge to the sink, to the cooking surface. Depending on your set up, these may be lined up and easy to work with, but if it’s working with a corner you want to keep in mind the walk paths.
- Yet if you’re using the island for food preparation you will want the location to be able to reach a plug outlet. Some islands you can wire directly to your house and they have their own plugs so lines may need to be set to run to the island by a professional. This will open up the things you can use your island for, but it also means you will need a size you can run lines around.
