People shit on "acceptable beige", "agreeable gray" (aka "millennial gray"), etc. but the problem is most things that people like more are more divisive. The people that live this kitchen I'm sure LOVE this kitchen. But for everyone else it's a pass.
Speaking as one of the "everyone else", it's not just a pass on the kitchen, but a deal-breaker for the entire house. I look at this and all I see is so many of my weekends being wasted getting it to a state that my wife and I would even consider acceptable.
Exactly. And the fact that they sunk so much into the renovation is upsetting. When I sold my house my wife and I briefly considered fixing some stuff up but it's like... I'm gonna pay some big amount of money then charge more but if I don't I can sell for less and sell quicker. Then again it's not like the house was a mess. Plus this was during the craze of 2021 so getting offers wasn't a concern.
