Right now we are in the kitchen design phase of our new home. Ever important to the feel of a kitchen are the seemingly endless appliance options. Gas, electric, or both? Stainless steel or cabinetry panels? Glass or no glass? And perhaps the most important of all; How much do you want to spend? These are some of the questions that get thrown around when trying to make a few decisions on your kitchen.
I am sure that there are other posts out there in blog land that talk about selecting the perfect range. We want to share our short list of range options to get your feedback, especially if you have first hand experience with one of the brands or models shown.
For the range we are obviously looking for a French inspired design. More importantly, however, is that we get a quality range for the money.
48" Dual Fuel ILVE Majestic
This is an amazing range from Ilve. It sports three cook top options, which can include a 5-7 burners, a cook top griddle, or a Coup de Feu. It also comes in seven great colors.

Just for fun, here are some of the refrigeration options we are considering. We also plan to utilize refrigeration drawers in the island across from the range.
36" Sub Zero Built-In Refrigerator with Glass Door
This is the current leader for our refrigerator selection. Love seeing everything through the glass. Maybe this will make us keep the refrigerator clean at all times!

48" Sub Zero Built-In Refrigerator with Glass Door
This is simply an amazing refrigerator. There is nothing else to say. I would be happy to have this unit sit in our kitchen. Unfortunately I am forced to answer one of the questions mentioned above; How much do you want to spend?

So these are some appliances we are considering. Please let us know what you think, if you have used them before, or if you can suggest other options.
We have also visited the Bentwood Kitchen showroom in Chicago and will be sharing our experience and some samples in a future post.
Have a great day!
