Appliance list - Suggestions?

15 years ago

We are doing a new build construction. We are now ready to order the appliances. Below is a tentative list of appliances. I am still deciding on a few items and would appreciate any input.

Wolf 48" DF range

Subzero 48" side/side Fridge

Wolf 30" E series single wall oven

Kitchen Aid 30" panel ready warming draw

Miele Diamante Plus dish washer

Kitchen Aid KUDC10IX dishwasher

U-Line Beverage Center

Sharp 30" R530 microwave with trim kit

Samsung WF520/DV520 Washer/Dryer

We are still deciding on the hood between a 54" Vent a Hood and Best by Broan. Any suggestions would be helpful.

We do a lot of entertaining therefire we wanted the additional wall oven and dishwasher. The second dishwasher will probably only get used when we entertain so we were looking for a less expensive model. Still trying to decide on whether we should do stainless steel or panel on the dishwashers. From what I have read the Kitchen Aid might be a problem if we add panels. Any suggestion for another less expensive dishwasher that could be panel ready.

Any input on anything listed would be helpful and appreciated.

In our recent remodel, we installed many of the same units that are on your list: the Sub B-48, the Wolf 30" ovens (we got the L series, double), the Miele Diamante Plus (2 of 'em), and, instead of the range, we got the Wolf 48" range top. We're VERY happy with all of them.

You bumped the thread so you must really want some opinions. So here is mine.

If you have an electric Wolf wall oven why pay the premium for a dual-fuel range?

Save the money and get AG. Better still get a Capital Culinarian with superior open burners.

If you must have self-clean get a Culinarian Self-Clean. You still save money over the Wolf dual-fuel and you get an oven rotisserie.

If the reason you want Wolf is for red knobs or wavy S-grates...well I can't help you. No one can:) LOL

If it were my money I would get the Bosch Vision washer and dryer that can be had on clearance at Sears Outlet,Ebay, or other clearance/liquadation place. I think these are the 2nd best after spendy Miele laundry.

Ikea has European sized panel ready dishwashers. So the panel won't stick out,it will be fully integrated. They come standard with a 5 year warranty. Made by Whirlpool of Italy. KitchenAid is made by Whirlpool. Not saying they are the same exact quality just the same corporate parent.

Hoods. Have a salesman show you how you clean VAH. IF the distributor is near you go there. I did. Looks like a PITA.

I would get the Best by Broan. I would also check craigslist and ebay. You might find one of the better brands really cheap. Modern Aire, Independent, Prestige, Imperial or something else.
