Your mistake is in thinking that when you are being attacked by Kitchen Appliances, that you would be evaluating such an occurance with your Waking Mind and thus discern the impossibility of the situation. However, your Dreaming Self, see nothing strange in the situation at all.
The only way anybody achieves Lucidity is when the Waking Persona is able to come forward within a Dream and take over from the Dreaming Self. Reality Checks and Dream Signs help in providing a suggestion that this Trade of Consciousness can take place, but actually any suggestion for Lucid Dreaming is probably as effective as any other. If one wants to impose Waking Consciousness on a Dream, and makes that Suggestion often enough to saturate Consciousness, then, sooner or later, one will Lucid Dream. Reality Checks and Dream Signs are not necessary at all. Ask around and you will find that some people who have set up various methods of bombarding their minds with the Suggestion to Lucid Dream will simply realize, at some point, that they are dreaming, and dreaming with most of their waking faculties intact and present.
