How much time do you spend searching for kitchen gadgets?
You know what we are talking about; The apple slicer, corn cob holders, the cute placemats with the holiday décor? All those small things that never seem to have a permanent place to live, and are never where you thought they were.
Stop wasting time, and consider using some wasted space to maximize the functionality of the kitchen.
The toe kick is the recessed space at the bottom of the cabinet – an ergonomic necessity that gives you space to put your feet, allowing you to get as close as possible to the counter. Adding a recessed drawer is a quick fix to storage and organizational challenges.
Are toe kick drawers worth it for you financially? You tell us.
If you are planning a full kitchen remodel, complete with new cabinetry, then the cost to add the toe kick drawer is very minimal. If however, you want to retrofit existing units, the cost is modest. Our design experts are always available to help you decide, contact us for an estimate.
Is there a downside to drawers located at the very bottom of a cabinet?
Sure. It is always going to be the dustiest place in the kitchen. There is no way around it. But dust settles everywhere and life is messy. Just clean it up.
Bottom drawers are often problematic for folks with mobility issues. While they can be “toe activated” (in lieu of a knob or handle) to open, they remain an issue in accessing items stored within.
