Recommended Kitchen Appliance Brands/Lines
We are in the market and we were just going to get GE Profile to replace the GE Profile that we already have... FIL inundated us with Consumer Reports-- and now there is no decision in sight.
HELP!

Re: Recommended Kitchen Appliance Brands/Lines
Right now we have all GE profile stuff and are very happy with it. What did consumer reports say?

the frige got a really high recco-- but all the other appliances didn't do so hot-- range, dishwasher, microwave.
we have all GE profle now-- it's just 5 yrs old. I don;t have a problem with anything per se- I wish the oven got hotter-- since stuff takes longer to cook than a recipe calls for- but I know this now and the dishwasher could be better-- but it's mostly space and configuration.

I have mostly GE Profile or Kenmore.
Most people "poo-poo" Kenmore but they actually get the top manufacturers for severall different appliances to sell their models under the Kenmore name.
I can get you more specs when I get home.

Re: Recommended Kitchen Appliance Brands/Lines
What's everyone's opinion of mixing brands-- we are going to do stainless and I am afraid of finishes, etc. not matching.

I don't mind mixing as long as everything is matching. Esp. things like the stove & range since they are right on top of eachother.. if the fridge is standing on its own off to the side the stainless can be a drop different and probably wont be noticable - as long as its the same finish.
Also if you are like me and can not stand fingerprints/dirty looking appliances don't get stainless get the titanium - NO FINGERPRINTS!!

Re: Recommended Kitchen Appliance Brands/Lines
My kitchen has a SS fridge and microwave, and I'll upgrade the oven and range top later (the dishwasher is brand new and I can't bear to change it since it came with the house). I say as long as they look similar, go for it. Stainless is stainless and as long as you get the same finish (satin, shiny, etc.) you should be fine. It all looks pretty uniform in pictures anyway.

I have looked at regular stainless that was more $$ then the brushed stainless or titanium and vice versa .. I think it depends. There isn't a drastic difference though from what I have seen.
