    Absolutely the best book ever for planning a kitchen., September 22, 1999
    By A Customer

    I bought this book thinking that it would be just a sort of celebrity tour of the home kitchens of some well-known chefs, a great idea in itself, but more style than substance. Boy was I wrong. There’s more meat to this book than in Julia Child’s beef bourguignon. My wife and I have been planning to completely overhaul our kitchen for years now, and we’ve gone through dozens of kitchen books without finding much really useful design information. Well here it is. On our first sitting with Great Kitchens, we identified at least five great kitchen design ideas we will definitely incorporate into our new kitchen. I’m sure there are more, but I just can’t seem to get the book out of my wife’s hands.

    Full of brilliant ideas that are actually useful!, October 13, 1999

    Finally a book with some “meat and potatoes” content that is enhanced with beautiful photography and actual floorplans! Not just a book of pretty pictures that have little to do with actual cooking. These kitchens combine the best of design, performance and above all, personality. The written background is also fascinating and really gets into these chef’s heads about their approaches to their own, personal kitchens. When’s Book TWO?!!!

    The best kitchen design book…, February 4, 2000

    Because we’re planning to remodel the kitchen, I’ve looked at many kitchen design books. This is the best one! It has great ideas. It has floor plans. The featured chefs even talk about the mistakes they think they made when they designed their kitchens. These are grand kitchens. Even if you want to do something more modest, you’ll appreciate the ideas in this book. We’ve all cooked in kitchens that are just plain badly designed. These kitchens were planned by people who really cook. If you don’t have a kitchen remodel in your future, put this book on your coffee table. Everyone will enjoy looking at it.
