Hi Ladies.

We are in Escrow currently and hope to close by Dec. 15th. We will be doing a major overhaul on the kitchen with all new appliances. So, we are in need of some appliance feedback, especially in the stove (gas range/oven combo) department. We are leaning towards the high end brands (like Viking, Wolfe, DCS) but that's only because I hear they are amazing. I'm not sold on them yet (their price tags are pretty steep!!) so I'm looking to hear what all of you have to say about any brand.

TIA!

We have whirlpool gold appliances- gas cook top, double wall ovens, dishwasher, microwave, and French door fridge. We only got to pick our fridge and happened to buy the same brand as our other appliances. Our dishwasher is very quiet, which is nice. I love the high end stuff, but I'm not sure that a Viking range would fit in our kitchen without having to reconfigure or lose cabinets. The cost also is a reason that would make us think twice. I'm guessing that replacing all of our appliances would run us at least 5k because our fridge alone was almost 2k and double ovens are like $1500-2000. I wouldn't have been able to justify spending our whole budget on a range especially when we had other new house expenses. I say get the stuff you want because you won't regret having a nice kitchen.

I used to have whirlpool appliances, they're great. We have been to see the appliance provider for our new house that is being built and I wanted something similar, but he recommended the LG range. I have an LG tv, which is excellent, and the kitchen range he has shown me is gorgeous - I've been checking out reviews online and they all seem very positive

I just went to Sears and bought a Kenmore Elite refrigerator and a Kenmore stove.  There are some really great prices on stoves and refigerators right now. I was looking at electrolux but the saleperson talked me into Kenmore elite so I hope I like it.  They won't be delivered until Dec 6th when our new home is ready.
