I am thrilled to see true counter depth refrigerators. However, 36" is too wide for my space, and it's just me in my household. Not everyone needs a 27 cu ft refrigerator. Are any 33" counter depth refrigerators available in + - 20 cu ft? Which models would you recommend? I can't find much in that width. What about under-counter drawer refrigeration to supplement a smaller refrigerator? I don't want a behemoth in my modest 1100 sq ft home.

I thought the Wolf Range was 35.5" tall and adjustable up to 38"...atleastgthats the spec i saw for the induction range...

I need a 33” range…so far as I can tell, it doesn’t exist. A 36” tall countertop is way too tall for me. So I can either put a butcher block next to the stove and a step in front of the stove OR I can put in a cooktop and wait until I can afford a wall oven, making do with a toaster oven.

Thanks for the review! Considering between the Bosch 800 and LG. Hard to decide

Larger sizes are definitely taking over.

We can help with this, check us out. We can make any appliance look luxury without paying for panels or buying luxury brands.

This was such helpful information for those of us planning out a budget for a rebuild- thank you!

Which 800 model doesn’t have a bar handle?

We looked at the standard LG counter depth (2023) and the Max (2024). Yes the door is thicker on the max - BUT - it has no external handles. So it actually sticks out less into the space despite having thick doors. We have a galley kitchen and need as much space as possible.

Disagree about the 48” range side oven. I’ve had one for 20 years and have loved having a smaller extra oven on holidays, for smaller meals, and for dough proofing. That said, when we renovate soon, I want to change to a cooktop & wall oven situation mainly because I want an all induction cooktop and I like the new combi speed wall ovens as that extra oven.

In the process of planning a remodel. Is it better to purchase appliances from a big box store or from a specialty store?

Are SKS appliances available outside the US?

Do you know if the Maytag/Whirlpool company is up for sale? Last week I saw a poll on TH-cam that seemed to indicate as much.

I don't need panels on my appliances. But I'm not opposed to them. What I would like is a full sized refrigerator on its own wall with custom cabinets and countertops built out to give the appearance of a counter depth fridge.

Which brand has the best Induction surface that doesn’t scratch up…

Are there any good Microwave/Fan/ Light combos out there?

Current kitchen brands are Maytag for fridge and range, Bosch dishwasher.

4:56 What’s a “draw”?

Oh man...i see this video now... I just decided on 24" wall oven and steam oven...i am doing a 36" range to cover thet reslae risk (atleast that is the hope)... Now this video is scaring me on my decision making...i made the switch to smallsr ovens due to need for more ocunter space...it was a big trade off...

Never mentioned brands . Lol

This was eye-opening. Thank you, gentlemen

Any particular reason why you left out the wine drawer? It comes with a glass plated front in a stainless and white but it tends to darken the look. Any thoughts on that model?

This video was fantastic and extremely helpful, thank you! Please continue helping others by making more instructive videos as you are easy to understand and follow. 👌👍

Even if youre bending low to fill the detergent, its good for xx (48?) Loads. You shouldve mentioned that, and mentioned what the others offered in comparison. I. My slcase it doesntmatter because i make my own detergents in powder form.

Ive seen multiple reviews, even comparisons, physically showing Samsung Bespoke has the least lint issue of All the new combo washer dryers. Please show lore footage showing the actual lint experience, because you guys have a totally different experience.

I’m getting LG Studio double oven w steam assist. Very excited. I would love to see the steam in actual application, but some home chefs

Can you please tell us the exact make and model of fridge & wall oven in background?

I like this lighting rabble rouser. Hood manufacturers, listen up! If someone is paying a lot of money to upgrade, remodel, or build new, they should get effective, adequate, and pleasant looking lighting.

This was very useful- thank you. Lighting is so important and the appliance company websites don’t give you a way to evaluate this aspect of them on their hood pages.

Thanks for this one. Good topic with good helpful information . Cheers

Hello there love this videos ! I need help is KitchenAid a good brand for a refrigerator I had hear really good things but also very bad ones

Your channel is so helpful. Starting a kitchen remodel project and seriously considering Bosch appliances. Leaning towards the freestanding industrial induction range . Fingers crossed I can afford it!

Hey guys! Great video! Can you please tell me the specific models of the fridge and wall oven in the background? Thx!

Any thoughts on Bosch induction cooktops? We’re not sure if Wolf is worth the extra cost.

In my last home I replaced a 6mo old Samsung (couldn’t be repaired) with the kitchen-aid 604 series which I loved except that right around the recall for leaking heating elements, mine started leaking. Thankfully whirlpool covered it but it took several weeks for the repair. In my new home, I selected the Miele 7176(with AutoDos). I really miss the kitchen-aid. The Miele is awesome to load several place settings but anything else doesn’t fit well in the machine. I’ve tried several different ways to load it and followed Miele’s videos on how to load the dishwasher but any pots/pans/casserole dishes are always covered in water inside. The ProDry feature was better than my Miele on extra dry. As another commenter pointed out, the cycle times on the Miele are insanely long. The quick intense wash estimates 2h33m. It’s advertised as a 58m wash. Then I usually wait at least 30m before unloading because of the lackluster drying.

Those Aga’s check a lot of box for a lot of customers! Great info!

La Cornue proves beyond ahead

I'd love to get an Elise (marketed as the Falcon Elise in Australia) but for some reason the importer refuses to offer with an induction top. When I enquired, they said it was because inductions was a 'niche' market, and yet they off it in the much uglier and cheaper Classic model. Yeah, if I'm spending AUD 20K on a range, I reckon I'm already shopping in a niche market. It's offered in New Zealand, with which Australia shares an electrical standard, so it's not a compliance issue.

I am seriously considering doing the AGA Mercury 36" induction range...the cooktop seems a little weak...is that just in comparison to the gold standard in Wolf or is it generally just weaker? Will it work fine for most home cooks? I cook a lot so i have been leaning towards cooktops from Thermador or Wolf but being swayed by others to pick a range. I am lookign at AGA over Wolf mostly cause of aesthetics and size - i am doing a very contemporary kitchen and doing a range at all breaks with the look IMO but my appliance store reps (and real estate agent brother) are strongly recommending a range since i have chosen to go with only 24" wall oven vs the American standard of 30" ovens. The AGA is much more shallow - infact its the shallowest induction range i can find...can you think of a better one?

I have a SKS cooktop. I do I see how well my pan is work? I haven't found this feature yet. How do you get the AI working to tell you the unit is failing?

LG’s refrigerators are terrible because of the lawsuits and now forcing customers to use arbitration. How do you trust the SKS brand because of that?

What about that LG has bad reviews in their refrigerators? How can I trust their other appliances?

Do not buy any GE Cafe counter-depth refrigerator (or any GE product). GE thinks it is acceptable for a refrigerator to cool between 41-51 degrees! You have been warned.

There are like 30 different models and numbers, you guys went over 2, barely. Maybe retitle this.

Could you please give me some good recommendations for a shallow counter depth one? My counter is 25.25 inches. Thanks

Two compressors seems like one more to possibly break. Fridges and freezers have worked great for decades on one compressor.

It is a very fussy machine a total pain

Interesting that you say there is a lint issue with the Samsung. Ben's Appliance and Junk reviewed this and said that after 30 loads he didn't see as much lint as you're seeing.

It would be much more helpful to give a review of the “nuts and bolts” differences between the models ( reliability, warranty, layout, ease of use, advantages and disadvantages) instead of these superficial descriptions of which one looks pretty, the colors available and the overall “look” each model has. Sure would like to know functional details before dropping >10K on an appliance.

Thanks, this confirmed my decsion to go with a Bosch. Question: Is the door popping open for the dry cycle a problem for wood butcher block countertops?
