Continuity mistake: When Lucy buys back her coffee table, Ethel and Fred move it to the kitchen in the Mertz's apartment. The door to the Mertz's kitchen (with its doorknob on the right) in this episode opens the opposite way, inward towards the inside of the kitchen, and not outward in the direction of the living room, as seen in all previous and following episodes, including the very next episode.

Suggested correction: The kitchen is a double hinged "saloon style" door. The door opens both ways, just like in a restaurant and most kitchens of the era. This is evident in many episodes.
Your correction is describing the Ricardo apartment, that has a kitchen with the double hinged swinging door. Rewatch the episode. This mistake is referring to the Mertz's apartment, and the door leading to their kitchen is a normal type door with a doorknob and it opens only one way. The mistake is perfectly valid.
