Wow! Thanks, I've always hated the way the appliances changed the counters and this is the perfect mod that I didn't even know I was looking for!

Thank you MaryLou - this is so extremely useful! Sometimes sticking out appliances can really mess kitchen look up. No more, LOL! :D

Of course we have to see the front of the appliances, and sims have to use them, so:
- Yes, the front still be visible as well.
- Yes, are covered only the sides and the back.

I was always annoyed about the visible metal panels, is more realistic to really encased the appliances inside the counters as happens in the real life, isn't it?

Thank you, thank you, thank you!! I always thought the appliances looked terrible hanging out, but figured I'd just have to live with it. Drove me nuts the way they'd sometimes fade in/fade out. That's not really what they did, but you'd get only a diagonal "piece" of the trash compactor that was visible from behind, is what I mean... doesn't really matter. This is fantastic!

Thanks for this I REALLY HATED how the sides always showed through, now I can put the trash compactor at the end of a row of cabinets without it looking messy :D

This is wonderful. Thank you for fixing this annoyance. I've been waiting for something like this for a while. No more half walls to hide the ugly metal parts of appliances anymore! Yay! :D

Mary-Lou, you are amazing, I was just thinking yesterday that it was annoying that the appliances replaced the counters rather than fit inside them.

Will definitely give these a try and see how they work. Thanks for the brilliant idea!
I have gone out to find myself. If you see me before I get back, please let me know where I'll be.
