Best Place to Store Small Kitchen Appliances
We all know the big three appliances – the refrigerator, the stove, and the dishwasher, which are a must-have in every kitchen. But over the years, small, single-purpose appliances have proliferated. Toasters, blenders, blenders, food processors, dough makers, waffle makers, coffee makers, and many other gadgets have become a part of our kitchens. But when these appliances are not in use
Where should we store them, and how can we keep them within reach without taking up valuable counter space?
A garage for electric appliances. If you don’t have a large closet or pantry space for these devices, use a smaller portion of a tall cabinet. Add a cabinet door that can be completely removed and place the unit on a roller shutter for easy access.
With one or two outlets on the back wall, these devices can be used whenever they need it and hidden when they aren’t.
Purpose-built cabinets. You can also design a cabinet specifically for specific small appliances. One of the most common uses is to use it to store blenders. Placing the blender on a pull-out or elevating rack makes the appliance convenient and easy to store. This is a very useful cupboard for appliances that are used frequently.
Remember to make the most of every inch of space. It’s fairly easy to create some unique and innovative small spaces with all the different types of cabinet hardware.
A small electrical cabinet. A closet-like space can be a great home for all your small appliances. Equip your wardrobe with sturdy folding shelves that make it easy to access them. When you’re done mixing, stirring, or baking, simply put the unit back in place and close the door.
The most prevalent small appliance must be the coffee machine. Often, this fantastic little machine is placed in a place that takes up valuable counter space. Instead of letting it be an obstacle, try placing it in a dedicated cabinet away from the main work area. This way, people who want another cup of morning coffee won’t get in the way of the chef.
If you don’t have a dedicated cabinet, try placing the coffee maker in a dedicated corner in the corner.
A shelf in the pantry. It is feasible to place these devices in a dedicated space in a food pantry, especially if the food pantry is well thought out and well organized. A pair of pocket doors provide ample access and transform the pantry into what it should be: an extension of the kitchen.
If your budget allows, a built-in coffee maker with a slide-out counter is the best option.
Corner counter. If you have enough space in your kitchen, a dedicated workspace will make using a coffee maker, blender, or panini press more enjoyable and free up space for multiple chefs in the kitchen.
