It seems crazy to leave a coffee maker.
But it’s equally crazy to remove fitted appliances that presumably have widths/depths/heights specific to the kitchen.
Either that or you have to build kitchens in such a way that it’s possible - e.g always free-standing fridges with no fitted cupboards on top etc.

That's pretty much the case in Quebec. My current place has cupboards over the fridge, but they are pretty high up, so you can fit any non-humongous fridge in there.
I'm really not much of a fan of the 1st of the July thing though. Finding movers is such a pain, and they charge 300% of the price of the off-season (every single other day of the year).

Interesting. I've never heard a sink referred to as an appliance. Anyway, I was referring to larger appliances such as stoves, fridges, dishwashers, etc. Certainly people bring smaller things like coffee makers as well, but that never seemed unusual to me.

a sink is a plumbing fixture, not an appliance.

Wondering the same thing. In the US it seems people leave ovens and stoves behind and sometimes washing machines but not always. In Germany people move all that stuff.

I think it's regional. When I lived in the midwest all of the appliances came with the apartment. Now I live in Los Angeles and you have to bring your own fridge.

That doesn't seem to be a consistent thing in LA anyhow. But yeah definitely some apartments dont have fridges supplied.

You’ll get the coffee machine out my cold, dead hands. It’s 35kgs too, good luck.
