Once you go over 1000 av ht people females under say 173cm would need to walk around bench to wipe it or pick up a glass beyond 1000. It also depends on how it looks in the space.
Agree with Kate. Keep it at 1000mm. You can use the bench top in front of sink for more serving space. I am 164cm and struggle to reach other side of our bench which is 950mm. You can also purchase a sink cover, which will give more usable space as well.
