1953 – Hidden Pull-Out Steps
Having pull-out features in the kitchen was a real life-saver in the 1950s. They allowed housewives to pull out special steps in the cabinets so they could climb up and grab anything from the shelves on top. These pull-out features also came in the form of a makeshift table and seat so a child could sit and eat their snacks after school. It might not seem like much but these features were very innovative at the time.
