Buying Guide

The best material for a prep table for kitchen depends on how you’re planning on using it as well as what style you’re trying to keep consistent.

A stainless-steel top is the most practical and versatile option: it’s functional, smooth, and easy to wipe clean and maintain. However, it gives off a more professional vibe, which is why these prep tables for kitchens are a more popular choice in commercial settings.

A wooden top is the coziest and warmest option in a traditional kitchen. While using it for raw meat could contaminate it, you can easily chop fruits and vegetables as well as knead dough without worrying about it.

If budget isn’t one of your main concerns, you could also consider a prep table for kitchen with a marble top: it’s smooth, easy to wipe, and guaranteed to introduce a sophisticated vibe.

Prep tables for kitchens should be at least 2 feet deep by 3 feet wide, to allow for a good chopping and food-prepping workspace. If your home has enough room for a prep table of those dimensions (or slightly larger, then you should definitely go for it: This type of home addition can free up a lot of countertop space and make your kitchen much easier to work with.

When assessing prep tables for kitchen, keep an eye out for butcher block countertops, wide flat drawers, dowel rod handles and easily-accessible storage underneath.

It’s likely that you will want to have legs made out of aluminum or iron, unless you’re going for an all-wood aesthetic; and wheels on the bottom of those legs are a nice addition, so you can move your prep table around your kitchen. Just make sure that the wheels have brakes that you can easily control with a foot lever.
