Whether your kitchen is cramped, cluttered, or crowded with family members, homeowners are always looking for ways to make kitchens more convenient. A remodeling contractor may recommend a few simple solutions to streamline storage and make your kitchen easier to use. For some easy improvements to make your kitchen more convenient, check out the tips below.

What Are the Best Ways to Make a Kitchen More Convenient?

1. Appliance Garage

Adding an appliance garage gives you space to hide hefty kitchen appliances, like toasters, mixers, crockpots, juicers, and blenders. Instead of wasting counter space to house appliances, take advantage of the freed-up workspace. The added room on your counters keeps appliances out of harm’s way and makes your kitchen more convenient to use. 

2. Deep Pull-out Drawers

Sleek pull-out drawers make more room for storage. Instead of crouching to pull out what you need, store pots and pans in cabinet drawers that pull out for easy access. You can add tracks inside other cabinets, like installing pull-out garbage and recycling cans from inside lower cabinets. Sliding storage and trash solutions like these will help keep your kitchen organized. 

3. Plenty of Outlets

One simple upgrade that improves any space is installing extra grounded outlets above your kitchen counters for easy access. That way, whether you’re making breakfast as a family or preparing a large holiday meal, there will always be enough plugs to operate all the necessary appliances. If you’d rather keep outlets out of sight, they can be hidden by panels that look like closed cabinets or drawers. With a simple design touch, you won’t have to sacrifice style for function. Additionally, consider installing outlets that include USB ports to power nearly every type of mobile device. 

4. Lazy Susan Cabinet 

A Lazy Susan corner cabinet utilizes several rotating shelves within a cabinet to maximize storage potential. Instead of reaching far inside a lower cabinet, a Lazy Susan installation allows homeowners to rotate shelves to access goods with ease. If your kitchen lacks storage space, speak to a remodeling contractor about storage solutions like a Lazy Susan cabinet.
