Advice please...kitchen cabinets

10 years ago
Need to make decision on kitchen cabinets. Since we have a 90" ceiling height we can get 36" inch cabinet bottoms and 36" cabinet tops, which leaves the standard 18" backsplash space. However, I really want trim on top of the cabinets for a more polished/finished look. We have two options:
1). Get 33" top cabinets - this allows for a 3" decorative trim and a full 18" backsplash (This option will cost more because we would have to order custom cabinets and we are losing 3" of cabinet space - Not a deal breaker)
Get the 36" cabinets but instead of the 3" inch trim, use a 1 and 1/2" trim. This means the cabinets will have to be 1 and 1/2" lower, thus limiting the backsplash space to 16 and 1/2" instead of the standard 18"
Advice?!?!?
