January 25, 2005, on Kitchen Remodeling:
Just in the process of putting a kitchen together. No one brand of cookware. Farberware, all clad, cuisinart, calphalon, etc. I pick cookware for specific needs. Knives are Wushstof, Kyocera, Sabatier, Global..specific tools. Double ovens G.E. Profile, one oven conventional the other convection... Wolf 48" range top, four burner with 22x22" French top and Wolf hood with replacement air. Whirlpool dishwasher, Sears 1HP disposal... 4 X 6 ft. John Boos butcher block island. Bottom line is that I fit all brands into what I needed. Shopped for the best at the least cost. The refrigerator is just something that keeps food cold: they either work or they don't. It's very hard to stay with one brand to buy for everything. Some manufacturers do a much better job in their specific areas. If I had to stay with one brand to do everything it would be G.E. Profile. They seem to do a pretty fair job at most things...
