what are people using for counters/tables in kitchens? there are so many small appliances and place setting stuff for kitchens/dining but no actual kitchen counters?
 
I had to use a wooden chest as my “counters” in my kitchen and customized it to be black due to the lack of variety as well. I think it’s a good alternative, since it almost looks like cupboards.

It seems like the only way to get a kitchen counter is if you use the ironwood kitchen set. Though I opted to use the system kitchen instead.

The lack of kitchen counters and tables is really annoying though :(
 
ah i’ve never seen the wooden chest, i’ll have to take a look! i know! there’s the diner counter i guess but that is a very specific look :T

i have the ironwood recipes but i have the kitchen island as my center piece and i feel like that doesn’t match.
 
i use open frame kitchen and stalls.

I actually got the idea from someone else, here's a screenshot of how my kitchen looks like! :)

there’s also the lecture hall desk, which I think is very versatile or even the basic teacher’s desk

ahhh, that looks super nice! maybe part of the problem is i’m setting up on the second floor and that’s such a big space

oh, yes! the lecture hall desk! good idea. glad i made this thread, i’m not very creative so this is super helpful!
 
I use the black and white teacher's desk as my countertops and turned them around so you see the back portion.
 
I've used the wooden mini-table customized to have a tablecloth, fruit cardboard boxes for some shabby cuteness, the ironwood set's cupboard and tables, the burners on the oven to display teakettles or the frying pan, etc. I feel like there may not be a lot of furniture explicitly named "kitchen counter" but there are plenty of options. However, the DIY fairy doesn't do a great job distributing those options. The game ought to have set up the player with all the necessities early on because it's not exciting to have to "discover" a basic end table through RNG.

Also, fished up tires should be usable as end tables. I had to get that off of my chest.
 
Omg I LOVE this!! I'd love that irl too! What's the item with the sink called?

Thank you! I'm flattered :D

It's the system kitchen in black! It's a singular item that has the cupboard, stove and sink - pretty ideal to be honest! They come in a variety of colours too!
 
I’ve seen the fireplaces being used flipped backwards looks pretty nice, but not if you want that drawer type look.
 
I like to use the plain sink, customized, and the gas range. Maybe it's just the old apartments/houses I've lived in, but I like the mismatched look.
But for your actual question: wood mini or low tables, or sometimes ironwood stuff (not the kitchen though!).
I think using dressers is really creative! I'm hoping to incorporate more of the fruit themed furniture into my kitchen soon.
