A kitchen island is a freestanding cabinet or countertop that is accessible from all sides. It provides additional workspace and storage space in the centre of your kitchen, where preparation, cooking, and cleaning can all take place. The advantages to a kitchen island are many.
You get more counter space, more storage, an eating area, and possibly room for an appliance or small work sink. One of the main reasons people opt for having a Kitchen Island is the extra storage options they bring with them. You can easily add more cabinet space under the counter for extra drawers and shelves as well as rubbish bins, recycling canisters and more.
