#12: Mmm… Pie
Clever design isn’t only reserved for modern-day products. Inventors and designers thought of some pretty clever features back in the day. Take this retro hot water heater. The producers of this heater thought to build a metal cupboard on top that warms your pies and plates. Imagine using this in your house to make your whole kitchen smell like fresh pie. Yum.
Who needs scented candles when this thing exists? Sure, you would have to bake pies constantly, but it seems worth it to us. Not only is this design super cute, but it’s also extremely convenient. It’s a space saver that warms up your food way faster than an oven. Plus, this heater is probably from a pre-microwave world. This seems like a great alternative.
