How to Store Kitchen Appliances

Published: February 01, 2022

Kitchen appliances are fairly simple items, but they can still end up taking up a ton of room in your kitchen if you’re not careful about where you keep them. Though most kitchens have cabinets to store food and dishes, not all kitchens have storage space for kitchen appliances. Where is the best place to store them? The answer depends on what types of appliances and kitchen items you own and what types of storage possibilities exist in your kitchen, but there are some general guidelines that apply to all kitchens.

In addition, some appliances have specific needs that should be taken under consideration when deciding on how to store them. You can also consider rearranging or remodeling your kitchen layout to make additional space for smaller appliances. To get the most out of your small living space, it’s a good idea to wipe down kitchen appliances after using them, dry them thoroughly, and put each appliance away in the proper place.

If you’re short on space in your kitchen , consider placing cabinets above your stove to make use of wasted vertical storage space. Many kitchens have cabinetry over the stove or oven that can be used to store small appliances or accessories, though this storage usually isn’t suitable for all appliances. Check the measurements of your individual appliances to make sure they will fit in the space you have available before storing them there.

If kitchen cabinets are full , consider adding floating shelves or installing a narrow broom closet next to the fridge or oven instead, as these are often underutilized spaces that can make excellent storage areas. Do keep in mind that the best place to store kitchen appliances is usually near where you use them, so if you find that your kitchen counters are already at capacity, consider rearranging your kitchen layout to make more space for small appliances.

If you want to maximize your storage options without losing any counter space , choose a multi-level kitchen island to place in the center of your kitchen and use it as a gathering spot for everyone, with room underneath for stowing appliances.

Kitchen islands are popular choices for maximizing storage space , especially if you want to blend style and functionality together in your home’s decor. Many kitchen island designs also come with extra counter space that can be used to store appliances and other cooking utensils.

Before you start moving your kitchen appliances around, take a look at your cabinets and countertops to figure out where you might be able to save space. Again, don’t just shove appliances into drawers or cabinets haphazardly; find the best storage solution for each appliance type that will create the most room for you to use elsewhere in your kitchen.
