Instead of a speed oven many like a combi steam oven. Plumbed Miele XXL.

Thanks. Plumbed Miele Coffee Machine you mean?

You want to love the kitchen... the way it looks? Or do you actually cook? That's the most important question. What kind of cooking do you do (if you do)? 
If I could have a Miele combi steam (no, not a coffee maker, a steam oven) that would be my dream. But I cook all the time. That appliance might not get any use in your kitchen if you don't.

My wife and I cook, but we dont need a kitchen for entertaining or doing more than standard. I am very much wanting to buy appliances that will last but the big ticket items are aestetically pleasing and noticable.

I really just want some advice on what to absolutely avoid, and what has been amazing on the higher end appliances. I have read alot about Bosch and Miele dishwashers being good. Wolf ovens blue interior being an issue, Viking being unreliable etcetc but wanted some live comments now its my turn.

My SIL had a Miele dishwasher and hated it, but it was a while ago. I absolutely adore my Bosch dishwasher - not just quiet, but it will clean 2-day old baked pasta pans so you'd think nothing had ever been there.

Go for an induction stove top - amazing technology: It runs on a standard electric outlet, but it has great control of the cooking elements, but without the heat and flame of a gas stove top.

We have most everything Bosch in the kitchen from refrigerator to dish-washing machine to kitchen mixer. We haven't had any issues with them so far so would definitely suggest it. Does anyone have experience with using SVG files on kitchen stuff instead of stickers? I've been hearing more and more people people would use them because of the variety you can have compared to stickers. I want to surprise my Mom and put something funny on her Kitchen Mixer. for start. I'm looking at https://www.svgdesigns.com/list/svg/search/kitchen?search=kitchen and also on Etsy.
