When a person is staging their home for sale, the first thing a realtor will recommend is to remove the toaster, blender, coffee maker—everything—from the kitchen counter. Why? Because small appliances are the king of clutter! Open countertop space is not only clean and stylish, but offers the most functional space for prepping, cooking, and serving meals, as well as entertaining. So when you have the opportunity to remodel your home, finding the perfect space for your small appliances is key.

The best news is, cabinet brands know you want clean and clear counters—but also that you want easy access to use those small appliances when you need them. So they have come up with storage solutions that will keep your space clear of clutter, while allowing you convenience to get at them and go.

For example, check out Kemper’s Mixer cabinet—which allows you to store your heavy mixer away when not in use, but easily pop it up with minimal effort when it’s time to bake:

And here’s HomeCrest’s Super Lazy Susan, a cabinet that fits small appliances, taking advantage of your corner space, while allowing you to easily access everything in the back:

And these small appliance storage solutions abound! In this gallery, you’ll see appliance garages that keep appliance within easy reach on the countertop, while covering them with a door for that smooth, clean look; roll trays that fit small appliances; and outlets within cabinets so you can open the drawer and use the appliance with ease.
