Why you really need a bottom box in the stove
There are things that we see every day, but do not pay attention to them and simply do not think about what they are designed for. Editorial "Site" I found out what the box under the oven in the stove is for and I am ready to share it with readers.
Like many, until recently I did not really imagine the purpose of the bottom drawer in my stove. He used it as a last resort for old ducklings and other household utensils, for which there was no other place in the kitchen.
It turned out that the inconspicuous door is much more useful. Boxes under ovens differ in purpose, design and method of embedding. But everything in order.
According to the design of the box in the ovens are divided into stationary (with a reclining leaf) and retractable. The former are still used in plates of the lower price segment. They are designed to store kitchen utensils. This is indicated by the name on the scheme – “hozshkafchik”.
Stationary boxes are distinguished by poor tightness and inconvenience of use. Keeping them clean is quite difficult. And the dishes after storage have to be washed again before each use.
To warm or not to warm? Retractable drawers appeared relatively recently and quickly gained popularity among housewives. According to the method of embedding, they can be an integral part of the stove or a module of the kitchen set.
The first have the most interesting set of useful properties. Their authors made sure that hot air from the oven freely penetrated into the metal box located below it.
This allows you to maintain a high temperature in such a box for a long time. Therefore, it is convenient to put cooked food in it so that it does not cool down. You can warm up the serving dishes before serving. A useful compartment is perfect for heating bread. Especially when it’s already a little stale.
If you cook lunch on the gas burner or in the oven, you can move the dishes with it to the bottom box. Hot food with a working oven will not cool down until the moment of serving on the table.
The same reason (high temperature) is the main warning. Do not store in a box under the stove old newspapers, clothes, shoes, plastic bags and other items that easily catch fire.
Kitchen headset module Back to the drawers, which are an integral part of the kitchen set. This option is convenient because it gives us under the built-in oven additional space for storing various things.
But between the oven and the retractable box is the MDF plate. It prevents the penetration of hot air. Therefore, to use such a design to maintain the temperature of ready-made hot dishes, unfortunately, will not work.
Well, as we managed to see, the purpose of the additional compartment is determined by the type of plate and the functions embedded in it by the manufacturer. It may differ for different models and methods of execution.
If you are lucky and your stove is equipped with a “warming box”, it is not necessary to make another dust collector out of it. You can use it and do not create unnecessary hassle to keep the finished food hot.
