A kitchen appliance is a human energy-saving device that uses electricity or gas energy to perform some common kitchen or cooking task. In the kitchen, appliances are used to refrigerate food, open food containers, chop and blend food, cook foods and heat beverages, and dispose of food scraps.

Countertops are heavy-duty kitchen work surfaces. They are often used for food preparation and even as chopping boards, so they are susceptible to scratches, spills, and hard knocks. Ideally, a countertop should be easy to clean as well as stain-resistant and scratchproof. However, countertops are visible kitchen features, so their appearance must also be considered, to complement the kitchen cabinets and appliances. No countertop material is perfect, so the pros and cons of each material should be considered when designing a kitchen.
