Here are the advantages and disadvantages: Advantages of non-dispenser model refrigerators. Most designers agree that external water and ice dispensers are an esthetically unpleasing feature, and detract from the kitchen design. Non-dispenser refrigerators cost less.

Kitchen appliances - one brand vs pick and choose
When should you choose a single brand of appliances for your kitchen vs picking and choosing each kitchen appliance separately? 1. It may be a good idea to have the same brand for style reasons. You can get matching handles. Digital displays have the same graphics. The overall look of the appliances complement each other. 2. Buying a single appliance brand can enhance the value of your kitchen. If you have an upgraded brand, the brand image will be consistent for all appliances. 3. Appliance manufacturers often have promotions that encourage you to buy multiple items of a single brand. For example, some manufacturers have been offering a free dishwasher with the purchase of a cooktop and wall oven, or a selected range. In some cases, these offers can save you thousands of dollars on a complete kitchen. There are three examples listed below of offers now available at Universal Appliance and Kitchen Center. The Jenn-Air and Thermador offers are package deals. You make a purchase to qualify for a free appliance. However, the Viking Appliance discounts are for each individual item. Click on the link below to look at all the great appliance deals available today at Universal Appliance and Kitchen Center: UAKC 4th of July Ad At Universal Appliance and Kitchen Center, the sales associates are well-versed in putting together the best value to suit your needs, whether it be a one appliance brand package or a mixture of different kitchen appliance brands.
