The theater seats that face the tv are heated and actually way comfortable and cool..... The solid surface counters are not a deal breaker....BUT the lack of carpet and rear cap are both deal breakers... And when standing in the kitchen , there does not seem to be a lack of counter space.
Now with that said..... I emailed the company earlier in the week with another question,, they were very promote in getting back...I emailed my thoughts to them yesterday , and recieved a response not long ago stating that adding carpet can be done ... And for me to call them direct Monday morning with my other thoughts and they will see what else can be done...... Interesting
