The primary storage problem of modern Chinese-style kitchens: how to improve the cabinets with backward design without spending money?

In the investigation two days ago,

40% of the readers think that the Chinese kitchen is the most stressful place in the home.

Today, the fox came to talk about the storage in the fox's kitchen.

The fox's house is a full rent of 120 square feet.

Of course, it is also carefully selected when renting.

At least the decoration is relatively painstaking at the same price.

Especially at that time, the most exciting thing was that there was a big kitchen.

Two-character structure, left and right two rows of worktables

There are nine in the top cabinet alone.

But when I rented it, I found that it was not convenient to accept it.

Or "the drawer is too shallow" and can only put some small things.

Or "too deep", a lot of space is wasted.

Today's kitchens in Japan are usually like this.

It's not hard to find.

It is actually very similar to our two-shaped kitchen.

But because it is semi-open,

On the contrary, the storage space of the top cabinet is reduced by half.

There are only three top cabinets in the picture.

Those chicken rib top cabinets that are difficult for women to reach.

I just gave up.

Instead, it focused on strengthening off-stage acceptance.

Today, the fox comes to talk about:

1. How to accept frying pans, saucepans and other large pots and pans?

two。 How to receive a large number of small pieces such as dishes, water bottles and so on?

3. How to improve the storage of kitchen top cabinets?

The drawer of the domestic kitchen is too shallow, how to receive pots and pans?

You can see from the first picture

Japanese drawers are usually 1 shallow and 1 deep.

It is not only easy to receive pots and pans.

There is also a special divider.

Can accept pot lid and chopping block.

If you don't think about it like a fox,

But made three shallow drawers.

Then it must be impossible to accept the pots and pans like this.

Under the stove is the most golden storage area.

If it is newly renovated, it is best to make the drawer above

But if the fox house has been made into a partition,

You can refer to the flexible acceptance method of the fox.

Separate the parts under the cabinet with the Ikea Vera pot cover.

You can still take in the frying pan vertically.

Although it is not as convenient as a drawer, you don't have to bend over.

But it's okay.

The problem is the saucepan on the top.

It's a lot more trouble than a drawer.

To take out the enamel cast iron pot inside

You have to remove the Corning pot in front of you first.

At present, the fox is still thinking of a better way to receive it.

If the drawers at home are deep enough,

There would be no such troubles.

At the same time, the baking tray of an electric oven can also be taken in vertically.

It is very convenient to choose and use it.

Another way is not to use a partition, but to use a narrower sink storage rack.

Although it is not vertical.

Take in less.

But it can also take in five or six pots and pans.

There are also some families that use word-shaped kitchens.

There are often not so many cabinets.

There's a big storage rack.

You can turn the bottom into a cart.

You can accept rice cookers and so on.

Otherwise, in the absence of a steam deflector

The rice cooker can only be put on the table.

You can't put it in the cupboard.

There are too few drawers, how to receive a large number of small pieces such as dishes, water bottles and so on?

The practicability of shallow drawers

It is mainly suitable for receiving small pieces such as bowls and plates.

But drawers are a little more expensive than clapboards.

So at present, the domestic still use a lot of partition.

The top cabinet is not as easy to use as the drawer, but it can also be improved.

The improvement of the fox

It's separated by a bowl and plate.

Divide the top cabinet into two floors

The upper layer is deeper, you can put the bowl.

The lower layer is shallow and can be put on the plate.

Although the capacity is not as large as a drawer of the same size.

But it's also a small improvement.

Many people may also have a headache about the storage of cling boxes.

It was mentioned in an earlier article

The stacking and storage of the kitchen must follow the "replaceable" principle.

In other words, the top layer is the same as the bottom layer.

Otherwise, it will be annoyed to death when it is actually used.

However, the fox also intends to further improve the storage of cling boxes.

Because many plastic boxes on the left were bought earlier.

In fact, it should be replaced by glass boxes one after another.

The advantage of plastic fresh-keeping boxes is that they are cheap.

But the disadvantage is that "you can't accept oily food."

Also "can't go into the dishwasher."

Fried chicken ribs.

If it is replaced by "large, medium, small and three kinds of glass fresh-keeping boxes"

Daily access can also spend less time and trouble of choice.

(isn't the fox lazy enough?)

You may think that stacking the same kind is easier to use.

But it's still a big waste of space.

Therefore, the fox also focuses on strengthening the "reception in the depths of the clapboard."

There are a lot of things like water cup and portable cup.

However, "the frequency of use is not high", as long as you can find it when you need it.

This is the edge area farthest from the stove.

The disadvantage is that the depth is greater than the width, which is very impractical.

It can only be used to receive things that have little to do with cooking.

Ikea Vera storage box has two specifications: 170mm and 240mm.

Similar models of Nitori are available in 170mm and 85mm.

Together, there are 6 combinations of different widths

Can be applied to cabinets of different widths

Make use of the depth.

Of course, if there are enough drawers

You can also use drawers and file boxes to receive water cups, lunch boxes, etc.

At the same time, they can also receive cleaning products related to them.

How to improve the storage of kitchen top cabinets?

One of the characteristics of Chinese kitchens is that there are many top cabinets.

The space utilization of the kitchen top cabinet is mainly height.

In addition to the "separation" and "superposition" mentioned above

The top cabinet of the fox house also uses this kind of high jar to receive it.

Barley, soybeans, peanuts, etc.

Ingredients for breakfast.

Not only does it accept many kinds of things

And it's easy to get it.

Lifewithboys@ameba

Because the height of women generally can't reach the top floor.

Another way is to tie a cotton rope to the storage basket.

In this way, it can replace the handle.

Finally, if conditions permit,

Try to use this kind of turn-over door for decoration.

It will be easier to switch.

This article is the third in the fox's series of "what kind of reception can be really used?"

Starting with this series.

The fox only introduces himself to judge the acceptance method that is really suitable for China's current household model and economic conditions.
