What worktop height for a kitchen cabinet is comfortable?
Whether the worktop height is suitable is judged by whether you can stand and chop vegetables without hunching your shoulders or bending over. A common method is height ÷ 2 plus about 5 cm; for example, 85–88 cm is more comfortable for a person of 165 cm. A more refined approach is a split-level worktop: raise the sink area by 5–10 cm so you do not bend over when washing vegetables, and make the hob area slightly lower so you do not have to hold your arms up when stir-frying. These must be confirmed together during the re-measurement after the water and electrical positioning is completed; the sink and water supply/drainage positions, gas and socket points, and the range hood exhaust path all need to be aligned in advance.
