Built In's

[dandureiko]

love vintage and love new cool stuff.
had a NuTone Food center installed in my Mom's kitchen remodel in spring '76 along with a built in Corning Counter Saver
in remodeling our newly bought FL cottage, I found a new KitcheCenter by TCC, I guess NuTone sold the rights to the design?
I tried in vain to find a built in toaster, almost bought a vintage Modern Maid on ebay but lost the auction.
HOWEVER did find the Brew Express, built in Coffee maker

I am reminded

of that song from from the early 1980's "Prep Rap".

Hit it Buffy.....

Hey Dan,

Great recording, I hope you enjoy the basic cartoon message of it all.

ok so where are all the people that like built-in's?
I'll even take a built in towel holder......
all that wasted space between the 2X4's........

Where are they, dunno,, they're usually around here somewhere. I got myself a near complete Nutone set this past summer but I don't think I'm going to install it in this kitchen. I think I'd rather put it in a stand-alone type cabinet,which I do have, currently have the mw oven on it though.

I put in a NuTone Food Center circa '76 (for my mom, I was 15, friends have them, on this list of course.
We remodeled a winter house in Brooksville, FL, I assumed the new Kitchen Center by KCC would be the same. YIKES it's beyond noisy......not sure if I have a defective unit or it's normal....
I'll be posting it to youtube shortly along with an Advantium and maybe induction cooktop video.....
