What is the general consensus on how much space to plan around a kitchen Island?
We planned ours some months ago and I've just finished assembling the units. The room area is all open plan kitchen, dining room and lounge. I planned in 1M between the wall units and the Island units. The Wall units are full height (7 in total) and the island has the cooker hob on.
It looks a bit tight, I can make it bigger, but it would mean redoing some flooring and a bit of chipping out to allow the power cables for the island to move back. I'm trying to work out if its worth it or not?
What do people go with? Kitchen planner said minimum 900mm so I thought a 1m would be plenty.. I can't make my mind up if I should bite the bullet and do the rework.
Any thoughts or experience? I'm trying to work out if I will regret not trying to change it.
