Whether remodeling an entire room or looking to add a single upgrade, it’s important to select the best products that will last for years to come. One of the best investments you can make is in your appliances. With a vast array of choices on the market today, it is important to consider your options and select appliances that provide the features and style you want at a price that fits your budget.

TREND WATCH

Today’s homes are open, high-tech and all about convenience. Consider the following appliances for your next upgrade.

  • Induction Cooking: Induction cooking relies on magnetic technology to heat the cookware and uses far less electricity than standard cooktops and ranges. The heating response isn’t just fast – it’s instant! You can boil a pot of water in three minutes. And because induction cooking only heats the pot and the area directly under it, the surrounding area is safe to the touch even when in use.
  • Professional range: Professional ranges complement today’s larger, more open kitchen plans. Noted for expanded areas of multi-tasking power, gas and dual fuel ranges offer commercial-grade design and high-performance features used by professional chefs.
  • Microwave Drawers: For most homeowners, microwaves are the second most commonly used appliance in the kitchen (after the refrigerator). Yet for some reason, they tend to be the last item incorporated into kitchen designs. An alternative to countertop or over-range models is a microwave that opens and closes like a drawer, allowing you to place your unit in a convenient spot and out of sight.

From removing tough stains to cooking up culinary creations, appliance purchases are an investment in productivity. Don’t simply replace an appliance, select an option that is larger, faster and efficient enough to meet your needs for years to come.
