Kitchen Plan Sense Check

Hi all

I've had to redesign our initial plan for the kitchen as I found some incredible bargains on display appliances. Our initial plan was built around an existing American Fridge Freezer; we were planning to hang onto it until it broke. As it's 12 years old, when I found Smeg tall built in fridge and matching separate freezer for £170 each, it was a no brainer to buy them and redesign the kitchen to accommodate!

It's 6m x 4m in a room that's 6m x 9.8m. The wall of tall units has hopefully been designed to accommodate how I cook. The kettle will be in the corner & oak shelves will house the cups, tea & coffee etc.

I'd be grateful for a sense check to make sure I haven't made a glaring error. (End panels/plinths haven't changed from the initial plan that confirmed with DIY Kitchens)

I know there's some strong dislikes and likes on Mumsnet, so I won't be offended if you hate it. Grin the built in dresser (bar) is staying!

Thanks guys. There's 1.2m between the sink & island so I think we should be OK. Also the sink is almost a double bowl going left to right? So there should be space, but I'll check when I mark it all out on the floor once we have an extension

I'd be tempted on the wall with the ovens, etc to have larder, oven, oven, freezer, fridge and breakfast cupboard left to right. Just thinking about he number of times I take things from the freezer and the fridge when cooking. Plus with them next to each other it makes sense to have them open from the middle of the two.
