Sup boys and girls, im about to start remodeling my house, I was wondering what are the top name or better appliances out there? I need the basic kitchen goods, stove (gas), microwave, dishwasher, fridge side by side with water and ice dispensers, I was looking at frigid air, but maybe there's some1 in metro with some pro cons advice knowledge etc....anyway what's the word?

Thanks
Tony

 

Visit your public library and review Consumer Reports.

Thanks Chuck, but I also wanna hear from actual people if they have any good or bad experiences with certain name brands etc

 

Figure out a budget THEN do as suggested through Consumer Reports. I do their online membership but you can also buy their review mags. I can't say I have had bad experiences since I do my research like crazy before I buy anything. But I can say the following;

I know you by now, Tony. DO NOT GO CHEAP. Let's not forget the front bumper incident.


I have used a wide array of products and to be honest figure out what works best for you. I personally have seen a huge difference when I have gone for more practical efficient models in the long run as the monthly bills come in. With that said just ask yourself this...

How much is the budget?
Want vs Need?
And again efficiency is key! A cheaper model might cost you more in energy costs down the line.

Yah al been looking at wolf I've always loved there line of productsmy neighbor actually has wolf stuff maybe I'll check it out, I see a lot on people rocking Ge profile series stuff and I like the frigid air stuff too, that's why I was hoping to maybe see if there's a contractor in metro that uses one brand more than the other and why

 

Few of us have experience with more than one (each) major appliance. My 25 year old Maytag is still running without more than a replacement drive belt after all these years and my Kenmore dryer also suffered a belt in those same 25 years. Neither of these models is marked today so my experience is pretty useless. Brand names are largely useless in picking products. Both were top rated when I bought them 25 years ago -- note they're different brands. I bought them for functionality, not to match.

BTW the washer was wounded by my then junior high daughter who never wore a sweatshirt or jeans more than 4 hours and must have used a hydraulic press to close the washer lid. I could see the smoke when I entered the house!
