Easy to Clean & Maintain

18 years ago

Today I was at the appliance store looking at cooktops, and the salesman told me that I would be cleaning the stainless steel frame with a toothbrush. Rather disconcerting. Got me to thinking about what I've learned here at GW:

Easy To Clean & maintain sink: Composite undermount sink in black, brown, or gray with a pull-down spray faucet w/o accessories.

Easy To Clean Cooktop: Frameless induction with touch controls.

Easy To Maintain Counters: Quartz with honed finish.

Easy To Clean D/W, Fridge, & Ovens: Wood paneled or fingerprint resistant stainless or stainless like finish. Or White.

But of course I'm considering a white fireclay farmhouse sink, stainless ovens, and an electric rangetop.

That's a bit of an exaggeration! I have a framed induction cooktop and it really doesn't require a toothbrush to keep clean.

Anyway, everything has to be cleaned, but cleaning something you like is much more pleasant!

That's good to hear, because I love the stainless steel electric rangetops!

In our last house, I had a ss Bosch cooktop with sealed burners. In this house, I have a glass gas cooktop. I found the Bosch substantially easier to clean and maintain. And I am NOT the kind of person who will clean anything other than jewelry with a toothbrush, lol.

honed quartz countertops are harder to maintain then polished. the caesarstone website actually has a disclaimer about the honed surfaces that people are supposed to sign off on if they want the honed.

we have caesarstone in jerusalem sand, polished, and it's a breeze to maintain. we do nothing but wipe it down with a damp cloth.
