For those who have added an island to their kitchen:?

Question

1) Who did you go through to build the island?
2) How large is it?
3) How much did it cost?
4) Was it worth it (to you)?

I'm doing some priliminary research, and it's tough to find ANY information will fighting with a squirming 17 month old and an evil dose of morning sickness!

ANY information would be greatly appreciated, and yes. We are planning on visiting with a kitchen designer next week.

*WHILE fighting a squirming 17 month old. Not WILL. Gah.

Answer 1

1. I did it myself
2.3ftx8ft
3.$1000. that included the range top
4.yes
your question is kind of open since you don't say how large is your kitchen, or what do you want in the island. Will it have a sink, range, or just a counter top?

Answer 2

IF YOU HAVE A BASE MENT, YOU GOT IT MADE... PLUMBING IS EASIER....IT'S AS SIMPLE AS BUYING & SETTING 2 OR THREE CABINET & INSTALLING A TOP ( IF YOU DONT WANT PLUMBING & ELECTRIC. THE ONE I HAVE NOW IS 3' X 15', LARGER THAN THE LAST 2 HOUSES, SMALLER THAN THE 3RD.

COST? HOW MUCH DOES A CAR COST?

WORTH IT IF YOU LIKE THEM!
