When deciding on the best way to keep your kitchen stylish whilst also keeping it family friendly, it can often feel like the many compromises you have to make can end up in your kitchen losing its sense of edge and style. With this being said, we decided to come up with the top reasons that solid wood worktops are perfect for those of you who are looking to make their kitchen family friendly.
Anti-Bacterial
Mess often comes along with having a family, especially in areas like your kitchen where a lot of food is prepared and/or left on the worktops, which can cause worktops to be brimming with bacteria. However, solid wood worktops contain anti-bacterial properties, giving you a naturally hygienic surface. If you have a family this can come extremely in handy as you won’t have to be as worried about constantly scrubbing down your surfaces so your family don’t consume bacteria. If you do have any bacteria that’s still lingering, wood worktops are easy to wipe down.
Curved Edges
With children running around the house the choice of furniture often needs careful considering, as when children are playing they can often be quite reckless, which means there shouldn’t really be any sharp corners on furniture that they could hurt themselves on. With our solid wood worktops, you can arrange for their design to have curved edges, helping to make your kitchen the family-friendly kitchen that you have in mind.
Durable
Family homes tend to see a lot of wear and tear, which is why solid wood worktops are ideal for a family kitchen. The way in which solid wood worktops are constructed means they are a strong, durable material that can take a lot of battering and use. Not only that, but any dents or scratches that do appear can easily be sanded out, making your surface look brand new again!
Maintenance
When it comes to making your home family friendly, it often means that you want things to last for a long time. The benefit of having a solid wood worktop for your kitchen is not only that they age well over the years, but if you keep coating them with oil every few years it keeps them up to date and fresh. If you use the right oil, it also means that they can be made less resistant to heat and stains, making your wood worktop last a lifetime.
Appearance
Solid wood worktops are perfect for any kitchen that’s looking to appear inviting and homely, which is want many people want the rooms in their homes to look like when they have a family. The warm tones and hues of wood can easily transform your kitchen into a warm, homely space that is perfect for your family.
