Looks great, I think we used to have this exact furniture, except the sink was white. And there was no microwave of course, and no electric kettle or fancy bottles with dish washing liquid. There were almost no plastic containers of any kind, everything was made out of metal or glass. There should be some hard soap near the sink and a piece of rag instead of foam piece. And at least one glass bottle of sunflower oil, the tall kind, like a vodka bottle but made of green glass. And it should be heavily stained with dried up oil because oil always bought in large 3 liter glass jars and poured into this same bottle through a funnel over and over again. And I am not sure if there were moka pots in the USSR, I didn’t know about their existence until couple of years ago. Also some flowers in pots on the window, with mandatory Aloe plant.
This is absolutely spot on description. Microwave is definitely the biggest offender. I would also add that there were no stainless still hoods like that, unless someone made their own. Stove also looks post-soviet. Remember, if it was made after 1991, it’s not Soviet.
