Wonderful demonstration on how to design a kitchen for long term use. I am looking at a sm home manufactured in UK that has many ADA elements. Your home demonstrates how to be able to cook safely in a full and complete way. Most options tend more towards heat & eat.

Thank you so much for your research and clear communication of how and why you designed your kitchen. I have a friend who has given up cooking, which he is very skilled at, because of pains in his legs. So it was thrill to send him your video to show him how to cook without standing at all.

Wish someone had consulted with you before they redesigned certain apartments

Some good ideas here - my issue is what happens if you are not strong enough to use a self-propelled chair - Has anyone ever come across a swivel-seated chair with brakes? So you can glide under bench-tops & tables and park! There are some great office chairs out there but they skate across the tile - my electric chair has a joy stick so too high to go underneath counter-tops! ?? Thanks for the tour.

How do you spell out the drop down shelves so I can look them up?

[@priyadarsini.spriyadarsini4501]

Pull down shelfs

How tall are those countertops in general?

Do you have a list of the names of the appliances that you show in the video?

[@SmallWonda]

I think the Dishwasher is a Bosch - we've had one for many years - low noise & the top rack is ideal for all your cutlery & things like plastic lids, they are also very efficient & have plenty of options, like pre-wash and speedy wash. They recycle the heat and water & I think they come with 4-front panel options and you could also have it integrated.

How do you reach the top shelf items in the refrigerator?

[@Ability360]

The fridge has sliding shelves to pull out in case he needs a better reach.

I tried a Dr. Exam stool and an old wooden office chair on wheels. Not very successful. My walker too big for kitchen and there is a warning not to move it as a wheel chair. I saw a program years ago where a company in USA was collecting old plastic chairs and fitting them with a simple locking shift like on farm equipment to dtop and stabalize to complete tasks sitting down. Am going to give a few remakes a try. Cheap but sturdy.

I forgot to say the attached wheels to plastic chair legs 😂
