We don't seem to have much trouble with this area but when I'm washing big pots, I put a rolled up dish towel there to catch any splatters of water. I was afraid to try anything else for fear it would be unsightly when everything was all cleaned up. I love the look of the island with the sink covers in place.

I just thought of a use we would have for your plug. That is where our train goes and we've been using the plug by the little cabinet.

Ed doesn't use a computer very much so everyone's needs are different. I'm sure when we start full timing, we find different uses for lots of things.

The selling point of having the outlet, in the island where Steve and Vicki have theirs, is that the circuit that feeds it is a 20 amp dedicated circuit, nothing feeds off of it except that outlet, and the Vacuum.
It can handle (one at a time, of course) a waffle iron, toaster, coffee pot, electric heater, anything you can throw at it amperage wise, and you won't be overloading a circuit. In a kitchen, this is a consideration.

Tim, so far we've not had a problem with splashing over the counter onto the cabinet doors but I can see where it could happen. We've only been in this rig two weeks.
Our 3295RK we lived in for 3 1/2 years and it had a similar situation with the peninsula with sink. Only on rare occasions did I splash over the edge. When that happened I picked up a towel, walked around the peninsula, and wiped it up. That's maybe 3 or 4 time in 3 1/2 years. But it does look like it should happen more frequently. I don't know why it didn't happen more for me.

I'm pretty messy around water and we don't have any damage around the peninsula. I don't often fill the sink to the brim though.

I have not had any issues with water spilling over the counters. I feel the trick is keeping the kitch faucet on low to medium flow. If you run it wide open, the force of the water itself can cause spills.

We added a little sprayer to our kitchen faucet. In the grocery store where all the kitchen gadgets are. We've had these before and they work great. Pull down it sprays, push up and you get a stream. Maybe the spray would help her. Just a thought although I like the idea of you standing there with the dish towel! LOL

Maybe I'm just more careful because I am aware of the potential to splash water over the edge. In my case it's more a matter of splashing water when washing glasses, for example, than how full I got the sink.
Ours came with a builtin sprayer right in the faucet head. And the faucet pulls out, too.
