There are lots of challenges to overcome in a small kitchen, from storage, to prep, to clean-up. Discover creative solutions for small kitchens with Shoko G., a member of the Yamazaki Home team and expert organizer.

I use a Countertop Drawer with Pull-Out Shelf next to the kitchen stove and keep my air fryer on top of it.
Before I added the countertop drawer to my kitchen, when I would pull out the air fryer basket, my countertop space was too narrow to put it down anywhere. The shelf is a perfect place to put down the basket.
I also store cooking utensils in the drawer, which frees up space in other drawers and reduces clutter. The shelf is also very convenient for serving a plate. It's wide enough to hold the air fryer and some cutting boards.

I store frequently used spices in a Magnetic Storage Caddy attached to the side of my refrigerator for quick access. I highly recommend the drawer for anyone with limited countertop space. I love the matte powder-coated steel material; it looks very chic and stylish. —Shoko G.
