Should You Get a Galley Kitchen?

The kitchen is one of the most used areas in a home. From preparing meals to accommodating guests, a good kitchen is essential to having a comfortable and pleasant experience. Galley kitchens are one of the many types of kitchen designs that you can choose from, and there are several factors to consider before you could build one in your home. 

In today’s article, kitchen and bathroom remodeling expert DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Southeast Florida shares essential information that can help you decide if you should opt for a galley kitchen.

Compact Space

Unlike the typical kitchen, galley kitchens are more compact since all of the amenities in the kitchen are placed on either side of the aisle. They’re ideal for homes with limited space for kitchens or for homeowners who don’t cook often and would like a smaller kitchen to make space for other rooms. However, keep in mind that due to their limited floor space, galley kitchens aren’t suited for accommodating a lot of people — a factor you should consider if you often entertain guests.

Cost

If you don’t have a sizeable budget or if you prefer to save money for more significant projects, you can opt for a galley kitchen as your kitchen remodeling project. It’s cheaper than most types of kitchens as you’ll only need to install two countertops and fewer cabinets.

Efficiency

One of the best qualities of a galley kitchen is its efficiency in using space. There is no need to move around too much to get to the fridge or the sink as everything you need is easily within reach. Though the kitchen is narrow, it makes it easier to get things done and avoid spilling stuff all over your floor. Galley kitchens are also easier to clean because of their size.
