@jubilant Don't like the dark bar stools and I'd have to change that awful light fixture.

Like it, especially the way the built-in fridge is hidden. Nice color combination - guess green is in - I like green; my kitchen is green!

Sorry, but this looks like my sister in law's kitchen redo from 10 years ago. It was nice then, but hardly "updated".

I would remove the island and stools and replace with a dining table and chairs which do not take up a lot of room.

I love it! Everything about it. It appears blue on my screen. I would like to see how it fits with the rest of the home. For instance it would not work in my semi open floor.

It would have fit perfectly my previous east coast home which was a 2 story center hall Colonial. Isn't it great we have so much to choose from.

This is a pretty kitchen too. I would prefer a standard height table and comfortable chairs to using a counter top.

This would be a great kitchen for your country home.

I like it very much! Has more of a farmhouse look to me.

If it were my kitchen I would have changed out the light fixture over the table, had chairs rather than stools and used a sage green instead of the blue.

ETA: The accent color looks blue to me.....and I'm not sure if the table is a table or another counter but I prefer a table & chairs for a kitchen.

Love it , but would get lighter bar stools and change the light fixture-do not like that at all.

This kitchen doesn't do a whole lot for me and I don't care for the layout. I'd get rid of the tiny island by the sink (they're basically worthless anyway, IMHO) and move the bigger island with the seating closer to the actual work area. However there is that short wall that may prevent that.

I do prefer the other kitchen. This one has one of my bugaboos-- when cabinets don't go all the way to the ceiling, and particularly, in this rather elaborate, "stepped" design, I find it visually distracting and they are also major dust catchers.

I don't care for the oversized pendant light. I do like the blue accents, and the beams-- if this kitchen were just simplified architecturally, it could be so much more welcoming, I think.

I despise anything decorated "traditional"!!!! Yuck!

I like the cabinets, double oven and ref. The eating area and light.....no. I would replace the eating island with a regular table/chairs. Also, doesn't look like much work counter space.

I like this update, but would have chosen a lighter table; though I like how it complements the flooring.😊

~~~All we need is LOVE💖

I think it's fine, but I don't care for the light fixture and stools. I'd prefer lighter color chair back stools, or a regular table and chairs instead of the island.

Ha! I know what you mean. We completely remodeled our kitchen I'm guessing about 6 yrs. ago and compared to today's styles it's already outdated. From what I'm seeing the styles change constantly and I don't think most of us could financially ever keep up with the latest. I'm to the place where any updates will be painting and fixing and that's it!
