A small kitchen is a headache for the owners of most modern apartments. Usually the total area of this room does not exceed 10 square meters. To make it as comfortable, convenient and practical as possible, you need to carefully consider the choice of equipment and furniture. A corner set will be a universal solution.
What are the advantages of a corner kitchen
Corner headsets have a number of advantages that make them stand out from their counterparts. These include:

- high ergonomics (bedside tables, drawers and shelves are at a distance of no more than a couple of steps from the working area);
- clear division of the premises into functional areas (work and dining).
Despite the compactness and ergonomics, corner headsets are very roomy and have wide possibilities. They are easily combined with built-in appliances, have sections for plates, cups, utensils, trash can, and numerous kitchen utensils.

The classic kitchen consists of floor-standing and wall-mounted cabinets, a showcase, and two worktops. An extractor hood is installed in one of the top drawers. It is installed over a stove or hob.
For a small family or owners who rarely cook on their own, you can choose furniture with a minimum number of cabinets. The top drawers can be replaced with shelves to add visual lightness to the furnishings. Internal content plays a significant role in choosing a kitchen.
For ergonomic and convenient placement of various items, dryers, baskets, carousels, lifting structures, columns, roof rails, trays of different shapes, divisions and sizes are needed.
The quantity and quality of the listed items affects the cost of the furniture. In most cases, you need to buy them separately. It is important to take into account the dimensions of the boxes. Experts do not recommend saving on a headset. Good materials designed for a long service life, protected from moisture, high temperatures, chemicals, organic acids, will ensure a long service life of the furniture.
