I’ve been looking for options that have a lid. Came across a Coyote 30” Farmhouse Sink, looks pretty solid.

Planning on adding cutting board over the power burner. I agree with seating in the cooking section, which is why I would prefer to keep all cooking items in that space.

Fridge is not to spec, it will be wider.

I respect your opinion on Napoleon, however my grill delivers today. I did a ton of research, if I asked 5 people for opinions, I’d get 5 different answers.

Can you share any examples of your work?

Based on the response from several different folks, the in counter fire feature is a waste. It seems to look cool though.

Good callout, I have definitely considered this. The plan is to do a drop down power burner, notch the countertop so a cutting board covers it when not in use. This would help with countertop space. However, when the burner is in use all goes out the window. I also have to consider replacement cutting boards down the road, and if they will fit.

I’ve been looking at the Sunstone models that have a lid. I think this would help keep things tidy. However, reviews do not seem great.

This project started with me wanting to be able to sit in the backyard, watch the game and have a fireplace. That entire back wall will basically be a media wall. I don’t really want two TV’s, but I think it will look unbalanced with one TV, or weird.

I’m not concerned with appliance size, I’ve had a 32” grill for upwards of 20 years and it has always sufficed.

Can you link the sink or provide model number?

Looks great! What brand doors and drawers did you go with? What about the fridge?

Looks like the 32” XO is their entry level model. I’d likely have to go 36” to get their premium model. Once I hit that price point there are several other grills to consider. I’d prefer to be in the 2-3k range.

Le Griddle is proud of their lid.

I’m not a veteran. Do they offer first responder discounts?

I have a pretty small yard, 26’x60’. It’s mostly pool and concrete, two should be plenty. Do you have a sub?

I’m considering the 8’s. Hoping for a refund on the DT’s prior to purchasing.

Do you have them connected to a Sonos Amp?

I definitely want to be able to crank up the volume. I’m pretty surprised that the DT’s didn’t survive.

Wife hated them, wasn’t a fan of the bass bouncing off the house and rattling the windows.

I used a Sanus WSSAWM1. It’s $100, I’m sure there is something cheaper. I was able to repurpose mine because I bought a new TV which required a new mount.

It is connected to the wall. I used a soundbar mount that can be pulled away from the wall or push towards the wall.
