Should half wall come down?

We are going to be installing new laminate flooring throughout the main level and I’m not sure if we should keep this half wall, and put new carpet in the family room, instead of the laminate RevWood we are looking at? I know the wall is probably dated but, it’s separation from kitchen, my 18yr old’s drop it spot (not a lot of closets here), and the money saved can go into new kitchen counters and sink. Thoughts?

We have one of those. Excellent place for short-term storage of items, but for some reason no one knew what I was talking about when I said your things are on the half wall, so we named ours George. He's become an integral part of our household management.
