In my opinion it looks better, but it is a matter of taste. So if you are doing it for a client, consult with them for a better feedback, as it is from their side what they want.
If you want a little more space maybe make the image a little wider, keeping the same height. Check the height of the camera too, if it needs to be a little lower.
Others look fine to me, the kitchen is presented quite well.
Oh and experiment with the backplate to find a more suiting background, have in mind the perspective and the horizon line.
Keep up the good work dude!
