Here's what Maytag has to say about the latest ad campaign and the re-incarnation of the iconic repairman."Since the first introduction of [the Maytag Repairman] in 1967, we're finally undergoing an evolution of the brand...for generations, he's represented durability, reliability and power. These virtues are still alive and we need to remind consumers of him and stay contemporary with [them]," says Heather Jones, senior brand manager for Maytag."This campaign introduces new creative that evolves the Repairman into the Maytag Man. He's actually a human embodiment of the machine and brings the motto to life...while our appliances are machines, they have human virtues of strength and dependability, which we bring to life by portraying him as the actual machine."Whether it's Love him or Leave Him, Thumbs Up or Thumbs Down for the new guy, Maytag's -

KBIS and IBS to Showcase New Appliances and Plumbing Fixtures
International Builders Show andKitchen And Bath Industry Show On Feb. 3-6, 2014 the International Builders Show (IBS) and the Kitchen and Bath Industry Show (KBIS) for the first time will be co-locating their shows at the Las Vegas Convention Center. Product lines that will be showcased include many of the major appliance and plumbing fixture brands that you can find at Universal Appliance and Kitchen Center (UAKC). Appliance brands participating at the show include Frigidaire, Electrolux, BSH (Bosch, Thermador, and Gaggenau), Viking, Dacor, Liebherr, and others. Plumbing lines such as Brizo, KWC, Toto, Everpure, and many more will also exhibit. Trade shows allow manufacturers to display their products to the builders, contractors, dealers, distributors, designers, and remodelers who purchase and use their products. Manufacturers often show new products to get opinions and recommendations from industry veterans. The shows also provide an annual opportunity for customers to meet with suppliers, discuss concerns, and plan the year ahead. Just to give you an idea, induction cooking has been previewed at these shows for at least 10-15 years. Now, it is finally a reality with nearly all cooking product manufacturers offering some induction cooktops and/or ranges. Similarly, various speed cooking products have been shown over the years with mixed success. Both GE and Whirlpool have versions (Advantium and Velos) on the market now, but Thermador's Jet Impingement system shown in the early 2000's never launched.What will we see this year? Odds are there will be -

Deciding between Stainless Appliances and Cabinet Panels
Stainless vs Cabinet Panels - Pros and Cons Many appliances such as refrigerators, dishwashers, wine chillers, and ice makers can be purchased with stainless steel fronts or panel ready to accept optional cabinet fronts. In many cases, these are "integrated" allowing the appliance to completely blend in with surrounding cabinets, though adding cabinet panels to your appliances will also add cost. So the question might be, "Do you want your appliances to blend in or would you prefer that your appliances stand out?" Some appliances are just so dominant, that it makes no sense to try to hide them. Look at this Sub Zero Pro 48 Refrigerator. It dominates the kitchen and demands attention.On the other hand, this integrated suite of GE Monogram refrigerator and wine units, tastefully blends into the room and makes a subtle statement of its own.Dishwashers, are appliances that really lend themselves to cabinet panels and can often seamlessly blend into the lower cabinets. Look for a dishwasher that is designed to fit "flush" in a 24" deep cabinet enclosure. Increasingly, we're seeing refrigerator and freezer drawer units, which are great for Universal Design and also nicely lend themselves to cabinet panels. Another great advantage to this appliance category is that they are go anywhere appliances, so they fit in with the design concept of "point of use" appliances. We see them in pantries, rec rooms, and about anyplace -

New Years Appliance Resolutions
Planning Your New Appliance Purchases Considerations for Buying New Appliances Here's a New Year Resolution list for planning your appliance purchases in 2014: Take inventory of your potential appliance needs by determining the age and condition of your existing appliances. If your washing machine is 12 years old, and has been making funny noises, you should anticipate that you'll be needing a new washer sooner rather than later. Budget for appliance replacement. Begin setting aside money to replace that clunky old washing machine. Even if you can fund part of the purchase from this appliance reserve fund, it might mean the difference between getting a "bare bones" product versus the one you really want and need. Universal Appliance and Kitchen Center (UAKC) carries most major brands and models. For example, you can select a new washer from among great brand names such as Frigidaire, GE, LG, Maytag, and Whirlpool. Some appliances get replaced before they have failed, such as in a new kitchen remodel project. Here too, you can do some advance planning. If you're working with a design firm, they can help you get started. The professionals at Universal Appliance and Kitchen Center (UAKC) are always there to answer your questions and guide you through the process. Appliances are a big part of a kitchen remodel. Don't blow your budget on granite countertops and fancy cabinets only to find out you can't afford the appliances you've always dreamed of. Allow sufficient upfront order and delivery time for special orders. -

Appliances and Plumbing Fixtures in 2014
More Great Appliance and Plumbing Values in 2014 Best Selection and Prices at Universal Appliance and Kitchen Center What can customers expect in appliances and plumbing fixtures in 2014? The industry will continue to feature products which represent tremendous values for consumers. If you look at the price of a refrigerator thirty years ago, you'd find that a really good price on a side-by-side refrigerator with ice and water dispenser would be between $1300 and $1500. Today, you can get a side-by-side refrigerator with dispenser for around $1000, AND it will cost much less to operate than ever before! Think about that. Consider the cost of a new car thirty years ago and compare it with the cost of a new car today. The cost of cars has increased many times over! While luxury appliances can be very expensive, the range of prices and selections in appliances has never been wider. At Universal Appliance and Kitchen Center (UAKC), customers can select from the finest appliances the industry has to offer, but they can also find major brand appliances to fit any budget. Popular priced mass appliance brands such as Frigidaire, GE, Amana, and Whirlpool are regularly featured at UAKC sale prices. Universal Appliance and Kitchen Center also offers a wide variety of plumbing fixtures in top brands such as Toto, Brizo, HansGrohe, and others. During 2013, Universal Appliance and Kitchen Center sponsored a variety of cooking demonstrations in their showrooms in Studio City and Calabasas as well as offsite
