Jeff, true, I don’t in any way “need” the sound dampening. Not like you NEED the Aeron chair! It’s just a fun idea.

The appliances in there are going to be things like mixer, blender, food processor. Things that don’t generate much heat or moisture.

It might be handy to run other stuff in there - e.g. to sous vide a pot of ribs for 14 hours without cluttering up my counters - but I didn’t design the cabinets with that in mind, there is no airflow. I suppose it’s not impossible to add forced airflow after the fact but we’ll see if there’s a need.
Oh no, I have been using the chair for the past hour and I must say, I need a Aeron that's for sure.

If you have power inside, hole saw out a vent with a small inlet on the other side to vent the heat. A Maple puck size vent can be purchased for next to nothing and use a computer fan on a timer to drive hot air out to keep it cool. This appliance garage sound like its huge with all you mentioned that lives inside.
