    HI Steve,
    This is in Cuba

    Kitchen counter = Meseta de la cocina
    bathroom counter = Meseta del baño
    kitchen sink = Fregadero
    bathroom sink = Lavamanos/Lavabo
    dishwasher = Lavaplatos
    toilet = Inodoro
    kitchen cabinets = Armario/Estante de cocina
    bathroom cabinets = Estante del baño (sometimes we refer to this as BOTIQUIN because at first, long time ago, it was only used to keep medicines, so if this bathroom cabinet is very small we just call it Botiquin eventhough the use may be different)
    Rgds,
    Realmente, el destino del mundo depende, en primer lugar, de los estadistas y, en segundo lugar, de los intérpretes.

    En Venezuela:


    Kitchen counter: mesón (also tope but mostly for the finish/material of the countertop. i.e: granite, Silestone, etc.)
    bathroom counter: same as above.
    bathroom sink: lavamanos
    dishwasher: lavaplatos (eléctrico/automático)
    toilet: poceta
    kitchen cabinets: gabinetes de cocina
    bathroom cabinets: gabinetes de baño

    Stove with a cooktop: cocina (eléctrica/gas, de tope, con horno, etc.)
    Oven: horno
