I have a lot of counter space, but only want essentials on my counters. I keep my Vitamix, Technivorm coffee maker and KA coffee grinder as far as appliances because I use them constantly (coffee items several times a day) and they are so cool looking! My microwave is on a shelf under a cabinet and my toaster oven is on a cart. The only other things I have are a container with utensils near the oven, a jar with dog treats, and a really nice container with coffee.... oh and a plant, and a little framed pic of the top of the Chrysler Bldg (I live in the northern subs of Chicago, but a real NYer at heart!).
Edited.... I forgot... I also have 2 cutting boards that are the same granite as my counter tops, with little feet on the bottom. They are used daily as well.

We have a small kitchen so I keep everything under the counter or in a small pantry. The Keurig and toaster are the only appliances I keep on the counter top. Even if I had a large kitchen, I would keep the stand mixer, food processor, and other appliances tucked away. I can't stand cluttered counter tops.

The only small appliances kept out (other than the microwave, of course!) is my KA stand mixer. Sometimes we use a Keurig and when we do it is out, but it has been unused and put away for over a year now.
I don't like a kitchen cluttered with small appliances. Even with all of today's matching colors and nice looking machines, I just think a kitchen looks cluttered (unless you have a really big kitchen and lots of counter space), when left out.
I don't have many of the small appliances everyone else does, but the few I do are either in the basement (if only used occasionally) or put away in the cupboards.
