Designer Ahmad Abedini endeavored to find a solution to the almost inevitable tendency for people to outfit their kitchens with mismatched appliances. The Kitchen Train is his response. It can be described a coalescent culinary contraption that serves up an array of different functions.
You probably noticed the presence of a microwave right away. Combined with a toaster, the invention offers two significant food prep staples.

The Kitchen Train streamlines the appearance and the placement of your gadgets to embody a locomotive-like shape.
