    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.

  • @kristinnelson-patel442

    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.

      Most brands use the same surface and are usually very scratch-resistant in general unless you often drag pots and pans around the surface. Options with a textured surface will hide small scratches better (SKS for example).

    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.

    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.

  • @triaxe-mmb

    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?

      The butcher block should be sealed. And to maintain it, you need to keep up on the seal every so often. I would just touch up around the lip where the dishwasher opens if you are worried, its easy to get food safe sealer at most big box stores or other online shops. Just rub it on, and done.

    • @jw77019
      @jw77019 Před 29 dny

      I can say that the Miele doesn’t pop open, it has a definite mechanism that opens it only after the steam has been converted to water. Some humidity is obviously released, but not anything excessive. It makes the dishes perfectly dry and room temperature by the time the cycle is over. A portion of the cycle time is still the drying phase as the excess moisture is condensed. Don’t buy anything but the best Miele. You will be glad you did every time you go in the kitchen.

      Miele has a “quick intense” cycle that takes 56 minutes. It works perfectly. It uses more water and power, but very litttle more. After having a Miele since 1997 I knew I would never be satisfied with anything else. I love it. Even the quick intense cycle only uses about 5 gallons. When you are going to be living with something every day it’s worth it to get the best.
