Planning a kitchen renovation? Keep your upper cabinets at least 18 inches above the countertop. This gives you enough clearance for small appliances without losing valuable storage height.
Too little space and you're constantly moving your coffee maker or mixer. Too much and the cabinets feel disconnected from the workspace. That 18-inch mark hits the sweet spot for both function and proportion.
