    New stove and the stove location is much nicer. I love the floor. I did not like those backsplashes even when they were just out! You gained a set of drawers also.

    Nice!

    Ollie, yes! Plus when we took them apart, the cabinets were barely glued together..

    The microwave was 23 inches high. I couldn’t reach it!

    New longer cabinet. We had to color match it.

    Other odd things in this home but that could be a whole other thread.

    Looks great!
    It's wild that the previous owners installed that expensive waterfall island top and ignored the home depot backsplash.

    Dee, I agree. They also put the sink in the island and had to move water lines to do it.

    But, PO liked color and these colors were suggested by Cambria for this quartz.

    There are tiny sqiggles of rust, beige and gray. The counter is more off white but changes with the lighting..

    LOVE the new version! An excellent improvement! ❤️ Is the stove top induction? The floor is pretty!

    Nicole, not sure of all the feature, chose it first because it is white. But it has an air fry feature that we are excited about.

    The floor is Coretec LVP in Calypso.

  • 11 months ago

    It looks really nice, eld! I loved what you chose. The work is so well done.

    Are you new appliances made by GE? I'm in the process of looking for replacements.

    eld6161 thanked Arapaho-Rd
  • 11 months ago


    Arapaho, because we were sticking with white, we chose this GE range. So far we are keeping the Whirlpool fridge but we also just installed a Bosch diswaher which is on the island side.

    KSWL, white seemed like a good idea in this open concept.

    Mtn, not exactly seamless but close because DH is our GC. We needed a longer cabinet for the microwave. DH drove 2 hours to the company. Came back to find it was the wrong size. Other issues but I won’t bore you. The correct cabinet’s depth was deeper. Our very talented cabinet guy shortened it and also repainted it. We had to color match as this kitchen is probably 10 years old and the whites did not match.

    Much better! I know you will enjoy the changes.

    Massive improvement! I can’t tell on my iPad, what material is your new backsplash?

    eld6161 thanked bbstx
  • 11 months ago

    Bbstx, it is a ceramic 3 x 12 tile in cream. It seems to photograph darker. In person the counter white and the cabinet white clashed. I just wanted something simple to tie it together

  • 11 months ago

    It looks great and more efficient too.

    eld6161 thanked texanjana
  • 11 months ago

    On my iPad, the backsplash shows up as a good match to the countertop. I like the idea of a white and cream kitchen.

    eld6161 thanked bbstx
  • 11 months ago

    Yes it does.

  • 11 months ago

    Nicely done! Besides the stove relo I especially like the warmth of the floor, the new crown molding and the counter top/backsplash. Are the backsplash and the countertop the same material?

    eld6161 thanked lizbeth-gardener
  • 11 months ago

    Lizbeth, the bs is a 3x12 tile that just doesn't photograph well.

    Thanks for noticing the crown molding. DH is proud of it.

    If ever we totally redo this kitchen, I would like to do the same material for counter and backsplash!

  • 11 months ago

    I didn't mean that your countertop and backsplash looked bad. I thought they were the same material. They look good together. And the crown molding is just sharp and adds a finished touch to the cabinets. Your Dh did a great job!

    eld6161 thanked lizbeth-gardener
  • 11 months ago

    Lizbeth…I know😊

  • 11 months ago

    oh eld, it really looks so nice! (and I noticed the crown molding right away----and the flooring!). Well done!

    Wow, it's really amazing how much a difference details can make, Looks great and the range so much safer.

    Much better. I'm also wondering WTH the original designer/contractor was thinking.

    eld6161 thanked Allison0704
  • 11 months ago

    So much better. Great job!

    I never understood those backsplashes. They give me a headache. I mean, weren't they tired of them 5 minutes after they installed them?

    eld6161 thanked jsk
  • 11 months ago

    Jsk, Cambria creates these mood boards.

    There is a bit of a disconnect between the white off the cabinets and the off whiteof the quartz.

    In reality those little quiggles of color are very tiny.

    This is fantastic. I too have the same vile backsplash that I need to replace. I hated it even when it was popular.

  • 11 months ago

    @eld6161 sorry if I wasn't clear. I was referring to the backsplash, not the counters. The counters are very nice. I love quartz.

  • 11 months ago

    Idk, I know . I was just explaining why PO put in the backsplash.
