How Big Should Your Kitchen Island Be?

Your kitchen island is an important addition to your kitchen, so it should be treated with great consideration. As with all countertop space near Littleton, you need to consult with a professional in countertop installation to get the right fit and style of island to match the rest of your kitchen.

As you can see in this short video, most granite or quartz islands will be about 3×5 feet in width and length. This is considered a good size for an all-purpose kitchen island. If you wish to add a stove or sink, it should be considerably bigger to accommodate these features. Ensure that there is enough clearance space around the island to allow 2 people to comfortably work at all countertop spaces. Your kitchen island should also be at the same height as the rest of your countertops, although it can utilize a different countertop material, if you prefer.
