There’s an approximately 24"×24"×32" space in the corner of my kitchen between the actual cabinet and the range.
I’m at a loss. The house is fairly small, and I’m an efficiency nut, so 10ft³ of totally useless space bugs me. The proximity to the oven would make extending the cabinet back that way and using some kind of blind-corner storage solution impractical.
We’ve been thinking about getting a new water heater, the current one is ancient and lives in a little enclosure outside, about 12’ away. Can we get one of those short ones and tuck it in there or is that likely to overheat?
We’ve also been talking about a whole-house water fountain system, but I’m worried that changing filters would be incredibly annoying.
I had something like this in that kind of corner: https://www.ikea.com/ca/en/p/utrusta-corner-base-cab-pull-out-fitting-gray-50596762/ Mine was right next to the range as well, it was a little awkward because the cupboard door couldn’t quite open all the way. You could also just extend a cupboard back into the void. Some of the stuff at the back gets hard to reach, but most people have kitchen stuff they only need once in a while, so it’s not too bad to have to go deep for some things.
This is it. My mother has the exact (maybe not exact, but really similar) setup, and she’s got some pullouts like these. $190 seems pretty reasonable too, these things can get expensive AF.
Holy crap that’s awesome, probably going to get some of those
