'''Countertops''', or '''counters''', are a type of [[surface]] primarily used for [[cooking|food preparation]]]. Small appliances, such as [[microwave]]s and [[toaster oven]]s, can be placed on counters. Non-freestanding or wall-mounted sinks need to be placed on a counter. Meals will also typically be placed on a counter when they are finished. There are three types of counters: kitchen counters that are usable from one side; island counters that are freestanding and can double as a dining surface; and general purpose counters typically used for [[cash register]]s and certain [[display rack]]s.
 
Counters, like chairs, are automatically hand-tool selected; starting with ''The Sims 2'', players no longer needed to hold the {{Key|Shift}} key to place multiple counters down at a time. Counters can be placed around corners; if a counter is placed perpendicular to an existing row of counters, a corner-piece counter will be created where the two ends intersect. In ''The Sims 4'', the "Automatic Counter Placement" feature needs to be disabled for this to work; when enabled, left and right end pieces, along with outer pieces for regular and island counters, are provided. Corner-piece counters can have objects placed on them, but Sims could not use said counters or any appliances placed on them until ''The Sims 3''. Island counters can also be built around corners, though they will not automatically produce corner pieces in ''The Sims 4''.

In ''The Sims 2'' and ''The Sims 4'', [[dishwasher]]s and [[trash compactor]]s{{Vgversion|TS2}} must be placed under a tile island counter{{Vgversion|TS4}} or a regular counter.<ref group="n">In ''The Sims 2'', the [[moveobjects]] cheat can be used to bypass this restriction. This technique does not work in ''The Sims 4''.</ref> This is not a requirement in ''The Sims 3''. In ''The Sims'', dishwashers and trash compactors cannot be placed under a counter and are always standalone appliances, although objects, including plates, can be placed on top of them. A counter that has a dishwasher or trash compactor underneath cannot have sinks placed on them, as there is no room for the basin and the pipes.
 
Counters used for food preparation will eventually get dirty and will need to be cleaned. In ''The Sims 3'', using a kitchen appliance placed on the counter will dirty it too.
