The Sat/Sun edition of the Wall Street Journal has an article re the "new trend" in upper kitchen cabinets. Author says more people ar opting for 14-16 inch depth and now 21 inch space above counter top rather than the old standard of 18".
The suggested rationale is that a lot of our dishes have gotten larger ( i noticed this with the old diswasher vs new one), so the interior depth of 11" wasn't sufficient. 21" above counter due to the added bulk.
Since i am planning on tearing apart my kitchen next, I am curious as to your thoughts/experiences/etc.
Thank you in advance, patrick
