A kitchenette or kitchenet is a small cooking area, which usually has a refrigerator and a microwave oven, but may have other appliances – for example a sink. They are found in studio apartments, some motel and hotel rooms, college dormitories, office buildings, furnished basements, or bedrooms in shared houses. New York City's building code defines a kitchenette as a kitchen of less than 7.4 m2 (80 ft2) of floor space. thumb|A kitchenette in a studio apartment in Sherbrooke, Quebec, Canada.
