The sink is too low, and I often bend over to wash vegetables, which hurts my back after a long time.
The stove is too high, so you always have to cook with your arms up. You can't lift your arms after cooking once.
These are the pains of not installing high and low platforms in the kitchen when decorating, not paying attention to the details of decoration when decorating, and regretting crying O (╥ ╥) O every time cooking.

Why high and low platforms
If the kitchen is made to a uniform height, when washing vegetables, you will always bend down because the height of the sink is too low, and the cooker is above the stove, so you always have to hold your arm when cooking. After a long time, it will lead to backache and arm pain.
Therefore, the height of the cabinet should be determined according to the height of the user.
Because the sink is under the countertop and the pot is above the countertop, in order to avoid hunching over when washing vegetables, always put your arms on when cooking, so that you can make the kitchen into a high and low table when decorating the kitchen. It is ergonomic to raise the position of the sink and lower the position of the stove, making cooking easier.
