• step in pantry had deep pantry shelves and hated them love being able to see things (only 12" deep shelves) feels like more space even though it isn't.
• no soffit even though I can't reach the top of anything without a stool.

Things I don't love:

• sink is too deep I am 5'2" and my back hurts when I am doing anything in it silgranite double bowl 9" bowls.
• faucet it is Price Pfister and has never worked correctly, sprayer leaks after fixing twice. It is being replaced as soon as I find something.
