Visually I like it on the back wall as I like the open expanse of counter and backsplash on the range wall. Some will say the fridge is too far away, but not something that has ever bothered me when I have moved it further away in my kitchens.

For the life of me I cannot figure out what is the refrigerator in your floor plan. Please label the cabinets, range, sink, etc.

I still can't figure out the relationship between the stove, sinks, and refrigerator in the two plans. It seems that the island blocks access from the refrigerator to the stove.

@Yvonne Martin, do you see the two looong pulls, side by side? Those are two built-in refrigeration units.

Fridge next to the range arrangement is very much like a larger version of my old kitchen, and I absolutely loved that layout. We also had a small, under counter fridge in our second island, in the same position as your dairy island, for items I wanted to keep cool for baking. We are not religious at all, but our kitchen would have worked very well for a family who wanted to keep Kosher, including having two dishwashers.

Next to the range. Like in photo 3.

The other thing I noticed is the light above the island. I think 2 or 3 pendants would look better. Personally.

But it’s a really nice design. I’m sure you’re very excited

Show them as 2D plans with all measurements.

Looking about even on the votes. Tough one!

Yes but does this take into account your other post for the island versus the peninsula?

They are kind of separate decisions I think which is why I set up a second vote. Seems placement of fridge doesn't really impact the island vs. peninsula seating question.

right kendrah - so the question is - is the landing functional enough behind the fridge. The fridge in this case being the one which is offset from the island and not directly behind.

Cage design build - curious why? Thanks
