Space-Saving Kitchen Appliances for Your Apartment

For all its pleasures and conveniences, apartment life is often characterized by a distinct lack of kitchen space. Preparing your favorite meals without the requisite counter space to comfortably do so, day after day for your lease’s duration? Yikes. A maddening prospect. But luckily, just because space is cramped doesn’t mean your style has to be. Opting for compact kitchen appliances is a sure fire way to, um, have your cake and eat it too. Read along below for some of our top picks for convenient small-space cooking.

1. Breakfast, Over-Easy in Your Kitchen

If you’re always on the go-go-go in the morning, a consolidated breakfast maker can save you time as well as space. Wow! The GreenLife 3-in-1 Breakfast Maker Station is a compact appliance that can toast your bread, sauté your sausage links, and fry your eggs. It’s perfect for busy weekday mornings, preparing a big weekend breakfast, and telling your deepest secrets to before anyone else is awake.

2. The Microwave

A microwave is an essential appliance in any kitchen, but those suckers tend to be pretty big and clunky. The Faberware Countertop Microwave, however, is a perfect option for small kitchens. It’s small in size, easy to clean, and has all the functionality of larger microwaves. 

3. Presto Compacto in Your Kitchen

A bullet blender is a great space-saving appliance for making smoothies, shakes, and other blended drinks. The Magic Bullet is a versatile blender that can chop, grind, and blend. The standard set comes with a cup, mug, and to-go lid, so you don’t need to buy additional containers. (This item is not intended for use in performing magic tricks. Keep rabbits away at all times.)

4. Clean Dishware—Anywhere!

Washing dishes by hand is… a chore. Drying dishes by air takes up precious, precious counter space. Is there no solution to this inconvenience? Behold! The Faberware Portable Countertop Dishwasher is a compact appliance that saves you both time and space. With its built-in water tank, you can put it anywhere! -Be reasonable, obviously. But, um: hypothetically anywhere! 

5. Slow and Steady Frees Up Space

A slow cooker is a great appliance for making meals that require minimal effort and occasionally trying fad recipes that never quite pan out. The Crock-Pot 2-Quart Round Manual Slow Cooker is the best of the bunch, and perfect for small kitchens. It’s compact, of course, but also exceptionally easy to clean—with all the functionality of larger slow cookers, to boot.

As we’ve seen, apartment living and culinary bliss aren’t mutually exclusive after all. With appliances like these, tight space will prove no impediment in designing the modestly-sized kitchen of your dreams!
