Usage Note
Küchenzeile is a compact, linear kitchen consisting of a row of units along a single wall — common in studio apartments and small flats. It differs from a Einbauküche (fitted kitchen) in having only one run of cabinets rather than an L-shape or U-shape layout.
Examples
"Die kleine Wohnung hat nur eine Küchenzeile ohne Esstisch."
