Kitchen Remodel

Automatic Washer - The world's coolest Washing Machines, Dryers and Dishwashers

Original

The only thing that survived the transformation was the Miele Dishwasher. I may eventually update to a newer model in stainless, but it may be a year or so.

Wow! Très très chic! The original walls remind me of walls from The Sims, actually. The sink looks stunning, indeed. Does the OTR do a good job? We only get one model of these over here - from Whirlpool. Is that a warming drawer under the oven? How interesting that the cooktop actually overlaps the counters. Is it induction?
 
Malcolm-

That's a phenomenal renovation! The new stove and sink look great.

What made you decide to go from gas to induction for the cooktop?
 
Absolutely LOVELY!

You've done a great job - colours are beautiful...

Tell me more about that sink though please... Is it full stainless steel? I love those big deep sinks - but have never seen one in metal...

Cheers

The original didn't look bad to me... a lot of people would have been perfectly happy with that... although the black and white was a little jarring. But the remodel is even better... much less jarring... and the bar... you can't have too much counter space in a kitchen.

Are those 12 foot ceilings? They look great, too. Nothing like a 12 foot ceiling to chase away the claustrophobia!
 
Malcolm, the "Wow Factor" is in all the pictures you posted! Beautiful job! Would you please tell us a little more about the backsplash material and the undercabinet lighting?

Backsplash and lighting

The backsplash is glass tile in an offset brick pattern. Tile grouting is clear with little glass beads in it, so it sparkles. The under cabinet lighting is LED. Turned out to be a lot brighter than expected. The ceiling is a 15 foot vaulted ceiling. The range is a slide in induction range. The ovr microwave is a GE Advantium. Refrigerator is a GE French door model with dual ice makers. The floor is a polished stone floor I installed myself. The sink is a full stainless 16 gauge 36" wide unit. I switched from gas to induction because the gas stove was terribly inefficient and a pain to keep clean. Induction is faster and much more efficient method of cooking.

Thanks for the feedback. It was a big job and took a lot of contractor coordination but the end result was far better than I ever envisioned.

Malcolm, TYVM for the info re: tile and lighting. I like well illuminated work area's. You hit the perfect balance. Happy Holidays to You, Tate and Allie!

I'm sure you're going to love that kitchen for many years. I understand where you're coming from now about ease of cleaning and efficiency on the cooktop.

And with your new cookware I'm sure you'll be putting it thru the paces.

I've also heard that those Advantium's are really good.

Evidently you've been on Santa's nice list and not the naughty one and he came a little early for you.

Enjoy! Enjoy! Enjoy!

Have Yourself a Great & Happy Holiday!!

Excellent choice of colors

Malcolm,
Most excellent remodeling choices. I may steal some of your choices for when I do my kitchen over. Thanks for sharing!

Enjoy using your new kitchen for the holidays.
