2. What are Kitchen Islands?

Kitchen islands are freestanding spaces in your kitchen that offer additional work and storage space. The most common solution for a purchased kitchen island as opposed to a custom one is a small table, possibly on casters, with shelves or cabinet space below a work surface. Butcher block or stainless steel are the most common counter surfaces for kitchen carts. If you enjoy cooking or entertaining, or have inadequate counter space, a kitchen cart or kitchen island can be just the solution to your kitchen woes. Kitchen islands can give you space for small appliances, and if you have a built in kitchen island may even house major appliances or kitchen plumbing. Kitchen islands can be very small, perhaps having just enough room for your microwave or a coffee center, or very large. Materials vary, but may include a variety of woods, butcher block, or stainless steel. You can choose the one that is right for your kitchen, both in terms of style and function.

If you are frustrated by your kitchen, don’t have the space you need, or simply think it could be more functional, one of the great kitchen carts on the market today can make your life easier.

3. Why Do You Need a Kitchen Island?

Kitchen carts are great organizational tools in any kitchen. Older homes often have kitchens that do not work well for modern cooking and entertaining, but may have adequate open space to allow for a kitchen island, or you may find that you can fit one into the space intended for a small breakfast table. A large kitchen island or kitchen cart can give you substantial amounts of workspace, as well as storage for small appliances, foodstuffs and other items. Many kitchen carts also include a knife rack, towel bar, or other helpful items to keep your kitchen working well. Some kitchen carts are designed to sit against the wall and may offer narrow shelving, space for spices, or other convenient storage above the main butcher block work surface. If you often cook with your spouse or children, additional workspace can keep you both comfortable.

A freestanding kitchen island is also an easy an affordable way to modernize an older kitchen, or bring a 1970’s era kitchen up to date without significant work. Ergonomically, experts recommend that kitchens be designed with a work triangle, incorporating sink, stove and refrigerator. While a kitchen cart will obviously not redesign your kitchen, it may make it easier to use and reduce the amount of walking when you are cooking.

4. The Uses of Kitchen Carts

Kitchen carts and kitchen islands are a very useful tool in kitchens of any size. Larger kitchens can benefit from dedicated space to clear clutter and make more space in the rest of your kitchen. It is often much easier to work in a kitchen with space set aside for certain types of cooking activities, and a freestanding kitchen cart or island is an excellent option for this.

If you enjoy entertaining, you may find that a kitchen cart allows space for serving wine or drinks, and can even be stocked to serve as a bar. Cooks may enjoy the chance to create a designated baking center on a kitchen cart. You can also use your kitchen cart to hold small kitchen appliances. Many people rely on a kitchen cart to hold their microwave oven in a kitchen without a lot of counter space; however, they work very well as coffee and breakfast centers, a space for a food processor or stand mixer, or even just as additional counter space. You could even use a kitchen cart with space for bar stools as a children’s art center.

A kitchen cart or kitchen island is a great multifunctional furniture piece, whether you choose butcher block or stainless steel.
