If you are building or remodeling your kitchen, you need to use these ergonomic measures to make your kitchen a comfortable place where people like to spent time. Between the stove and the base of the cabinets, there should be a height between 45 and 70 centimeters so you can comfortably work. For this reason, the top cabinets should be at least 20-40 centimeters deep to prevent people from banging their heads. The height between the cooker and the hood can never be less than 50 cm, but due to the decorative need, this height can never exceed 70 cm. The height of the bench varies between 85 and 105 centimeters, and the height of the plinth varies between 10 and 22 centimeters in height.  Also is important to reserve a space of 60 centimeters behind the chair so you can have free and comfortable movements if you need chairs in the kitchen. The islands are only recommended in large kitchens because it is necessary to guarantee at least 60 cm of space all around its perimeter in order to facilitate the circulation and opening of the cabinets. Place the oven and microwaves at eye level, for example in the column. The microwave should be at a height of 130 to 145 cm and the conventional oven a little below at a height of 90 and 97 cm. Remember that the front of the oven must be unobstructed leaving a minimum distance of 90 centimeters, so as to open the oven door with convenience.
