Here is my set up.

My setup.
Nice! You have your wife well trained if she let you drill a hole through that counter top

Bob - I see that your machine sits in a corner, to the right of your sink. I'm in the same boat. It would be better located to the left of the sink, but that's where our dishwasher is.bobroseman wrote:I just took over the soap dispenser hole. :) :)

Do you find it at all awkward to use?
I would not be able to center myself in front of the machine unless I put it at an angle. Then I think I'd have too much hose showing.
I may have to give up on a plumbed in machine. Sigh.
Not at all awkward. I am very happy with this location.okaychatt wrote:Bob - I see that your machine sits in a corner, to the right of your sink. I'm in the same boat.

I can position myself to steam milk with either hand although I usually hold the pitcher with my left hand so that I can stop the timer with my right as I pull my shot.
Other that steaming I can see no reason to worry about your position relative to the front of the machine.
If you are going to be in Atlanta anytime soon, let me know and you can come over and pull some shots on my machine and checkout the installation.
