Abstract: The present invention provides a furniture construction, and an associated method of manufacture, that can be converted from a bed to a table and vice versa. According to one embodiment, the furniture construction includes a support structure, a bed frame movably connected to the support structure so that the bed frame can be rotated between an inoperative first position and an operative second position, and a table movably connected to the support structure so that the table can be adjusted between an operative first position and an inoperative second position. The bed frame and the table are structured such that when the bed frame is in the operative second position the table is in the inoperative second position, and when the table is in the operative first position the bed frame is in the inoperative second position.

Abstract: A food thermalization device is provided, which permits the food to be thermalized and held for extended periods of time without causing the food to deteriorate. The device includes an electrically-resistance-heated plate, which is controlled to equilibrate at a set temperature in the range of 160° F. to 185° F., with a fluctuation not exceeding plus or minus 5° F. The plate draws much less power than other food cooking devices and occupies much less space for the amount of food it can prepare. A browning oven is also provided for exposing unwrapped food to very high temperature radiation for a short period of time to brown the food.
