Morphology
The meaning is directly and transparently compositional: an 'appliance' that belongs in or is used in the 'kitchen' (i.e., a device for preparing food). This straightforward noun–noun compound follows common, cross-linguistic compounding patterns, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents will readily infer the MWE's meaning.
Etymology
Kitchen appliance puts kitchen and appliance together: imagine a small machine in the kitchen doing the jobs you would otherwise do by hand. So it means 'a device or machine used in the kitchen to help prepare food or clean'.
