According to Patricia, a kitchen critic and interior designer for over 20 years, “Looks and practicality are not the same… no matter how good your venting, dust and grease fly around the kitchen.” If you’re anything like me, you spend hours and hours cleaning your kitchen as it is. When shelving is placed this close to the stove, grease can easily dirty glass dishes, not to mention the surface of the shelves and backsplash. Floating shelves can frequently become another item that will need attention in addition to all of the other cleaning duties.
