Kitchen Island Tables

In older days, a kitchen table fulfilled many of the functions of today's kitchen island. It didn't have cabinets or drawers, but it was a place to do kitchen work. You could roll out dough, chop and mix, or sit and chat while you shelled peas. Today's kitchens usually have less room than they used to. You need to combine a work surface, cabinet storage, and a casual place to eat into one piece of furniture. In short, the island is the workhorse of the modern kitchen.

A kitchen island is a great, multifunctional piece of furniture to have in your kitchen, serving as a place to prepare meals, pay bills, and enjoy snacks. In fact, any island can double as a table, and any table can double as an island. The main difference is their height. Tables are meant for people who are sitting down, while kitchen islands are built for people to use while standing up or sitting on a barstool. As a result, kitchen islands are about six inches higher than most tables.
