Is a kitchen island always a waste of space that just gets in the way?

Subway tile backsplashes are overdone and look dated already.

Should architects stop designing open shelving for kitchens that only look good in empty magazine shoots?

Are people who hate open shelving just scared of cleaning, or are they right about the dust?

Is spending $5,000 on a kitchen faucet pure stupidity or a smart investment?

Is a walk-in pantry just a status symbol for people who don't actually cook?
