5 Must-Have Updates for the Modern Kitchen in 2022
The new year is here, which means it is the perfect time to start your kitchen remodel with modern kitchen upgrades that blend style and functionality. After all, the kitchen is where the household comes together to eat, tell stories, and enjoy each other’s company. You don’t want this central space to become outdated or unwieldy. With the right updates, your kitchen will stay right on the cutting edge, making it easier to use the space for food preparation, eating, and socializing. This year, there are countless potential updates to choose from. Here are five great options to consider as you reinvent the most important room in your home.
Designer Buttons for Your Garbage Disposal System
The whole purpose of a garbage disposal system is to maximize convenience, and you can make the system even easier to use by installing a handy air switch, like the designer Air Switch Buttons from InSinkErator. Their eye-catching switches easily plug into wall outlets and send power to your garbage disposal system. Halfway along the cord, the stainless steel power button makes it easy to turn the system on or off without having to walk to a switch on the wall.
Why is a Garbage Disposal Air Switch a Smart Upgrade?
Not only stylish, this simple update is one of the best kitchen upgrades — making kitchen cleanup faster, easier, and more efficient. We all know that washing dishes can be a messy process, and it’s always annoying to step away from the sink with wet, dripping hands. With the InSinkErator Designer Air Switch, you’ll be able to manage your garbage disposal and clear food residue all without leaving the sink.
Keep Meals Hot with Warming Drawers
Snazzy, sleek, and oh-so-convenient, warming drawers are quickly becoming a standard feature of the modern kitchen. Built into the wall to avoid taking up extra space, these miniature ovens keep food warm without drying it out. They’re also available in countless sizes and styles, meaning you’ll have no trouble finding the model that’s perfect for your kitchen.
Benefits of a Warming Drawer
Warming drawers are one of today’s top modern kitchen must-haves — perfect for keeping food warm without compromising taste or texture. They’re also ideal for dinner parties, allowing you to prepare some parts of the meal ahead of time without letting them go cold. Once you’ve had warming drawers installed in your kitchen, you’ll wonder how you ever got by without them.

Maximize Space with a Multifunctional Kitchen Island
Enhancing a kitchen is all about promoting practicality, and nothing is as practical as a multifunctional island. This single addition to your kitchen will increase counter space, give people more places to sit, and make it easier to complete cooking projects while making less of a mess.
Add Storage, Seating, and Dishes
The most common kitchen design challenge is a lack of surface space — and a multifunctional kitchen island offers the perfect modern solution. It’s amazing how quickly a small counter can get covered in dishes, pots, and pans. With an island providing additional space, you’ll be able to cook an entire meal without feeling cramped for kitchen real estate and having to clean up as you go.
Optimized Storage with Streamlined Kitchen Cabinetry
Sometimes, the issue isn’t too much clutter — it’s too little storage. Storage space is almost always an issue in the kitchen, and streamlined cabinetry could provide an optimal solution for your layout. If your cabinets don’t give you the efficient storage space you need, it’s time to make a change. With streamlined kitchen cabinetry featuring added shelves and hidden trash storage, your space becomes both modern and clutter-free.
