⌗ Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions.

Which kitchen appliances are worth it in a single household?

For one person, the ones that pay off most are a countertop or 45 cm dishwasher, a single rice cooker (0.3 to 1.5 L), a compact air fryer and a mini fridge with a small freezer compartment. What matters is fitting dimensions and low consumption rather than maximum size.

How narrow can a dishwasher be for a small kitchen?

Built-in dishwashers start at 45 cm wide. Countertop dishwashers are even more compact and need no fixed water connection, ideal for pantry kitchens and tiny homes.

Can a double hotplate replace a cooker?

For single flats without a cooker connection, yes: an induction double hotplate cooks quickly and efficiently, while a cast-iron one takes any pot. Together with a mini oven it replaces a full kitchen in a small space.
