I love large serving pieces (bowls, platters and oversized plates) and pretty dessert plates. I think I could serve 60 people cake and display a long table or three of nibbles. But I'm not patient enough to cook. When I'm hungry I don't want to wait hours. And when I'm not hungry I have no interest.
We keep a few small appliances. Some see almost daily use (Keurig, toaster oven, microwave). Others less often (George Forman grill, electric wok, tea kettle, small burner that only works with metal pans, rice cooker/steamer). I have most of the items because we don't have a stove/oven. Why keep something that large to mainly boil water?
I put a bookshelf in its spot where I keep my boxes of scraps and my quilting/sewing books. Much better use of the space. : )
