install an on-bench pantry in your kitchen
You’ve worked hard to make a home that you love – every corner, every detail, every choice. Your kitchen, the heart of your home, deserves to reflect not just function, but style and ease of use in the everyday. If you’re looking for your next kitchen upgrade, then it is time to consider an on-bench pantry. This isn’t just a trend – it is a practical way to improve how you use your space, and to look good while doing it.
what is an on-bench pantry?
On-bench pantries are exactly how they are named – a pantry that is located on top of your benchtop. Typically spanning to the top your wall cabinets, on bench pantry cabinets offer ample storage in your kitchen, without taking up the unnecessary floor space from a regular pantry.
why should you include an on-bench pantry in your space?
Appliance Station: Having an on-bench pantry allows you to not only store the typical confectionary, baking essentials and dry goods, it gives you the versatility to store on-bench appliances or a spice rack that would otherwise take up important bench space. You could treat your on-bench pantry as an appliance garage, storing these everyday appliances in one convenient location.
Additional Space: Whether you have enough floor space for a regular pantry or not, an on-bench pantry can suit most kitchen pantry design ideas. If you find that your regular pantry isn’t providing enough storage, you can always pair it with an on-bench pantry to meet your needs. Or, if you feel there isn’t enough floor space for a regular pantry, you can install the on-bench pantry on its own.
Style and Sophistication: Beyond function, on-bench pantries can add an extra element of style and luxury to your kitchen. You can tailor your cabinetry to suit whichever style you like.
