I never thought about the backsplash until one day I knocked over a flower vase trying to catch a dish that fell out of the cupboard as I was reaching for a glass. The water was everywhere and I was glad it didn't go behind the counter. Nothing broke and I got away with cleaning it up before anyone noticed. I bought a lottery ticket that day but didn't win anything. luck is funny like that.
I did notice that when buying cabinets you have to be careful to get the ones that have a continuous shelf along the entire shelf wall. Today they sell these shelf compartments that come in boxes so when you put things in them they are separated by each wall of the compartment. Sometimes your better off getting a finish carpenter to frame the cabinets and then face them. A continuous shelf gives you more room to move things around in so you can organize the space better. I almost want to tear mine out and am kicking myself in the ass because I have less space in the same area now.
