When planning your kitchen for efficiency and storage, don’t forgo safety. Over the range microwaves have advantages, but the disadvantages can be dangerous.

Reaching over a range that is active can cause loose clothing to catch fire. For shorter homeowners, reaching above shoulder height can create a situation where a container may tip over and cause severe burns. In a multi-cook family, the last place you want to be “dancing” is infront of a cooking element.

An over-the-range microwave should be your last resort. Instead, look into incorporating your microwave either in a tall cabinet or in a base cabinet beneath the counter. My favorite place is at the end of an island where snackers can easily access the appliance without interrupting the chef.

Nice post….Storage space is often at a premium in a kitchen, and the remodeling project should consider what will make the kitchen work well.
