Abstract
A household device includes a useful storage volume that can be closed by a door and a storage compartment disposed below, above, or to the side of the useful storage volume into which the door can be displaced. The door is associated with a guiding system including at least one slide track, wherein a guiding element associated with the door is guided by displacing the door from a closed position and moving it into the storage compartment. The slide track includes a start section that initially guides the door in an upward direction when it moves out of the closed position. Such a configuration has the same size as conventional household device with an increased useful storage volume.
