I'm not for clutter so my kitchen always been pretty bare, I found it easier to clean and for others to keep clean as well...Plus I think of the kitchen as a place food is prepared food, sanitation etc ,same with bathroom no clutter on counters...
I keep all my appliance in these two large pull out draws, very easy I can just set em on the counters plug in when done back in draws ...
Same with my pots& pans, have two large pull outs to house,,,
The Island as well has to large pull out to house cookware and large bowls .draws on top house knifes etc...
