Save Money on Luxury Brands at Universal Appliance and Kitchen CenterIf you are building a new house or remodeling your kitchen, and are suffering from sticker shock on the cost of luxury appliances do not despair. Yes, famous name luxury brands can easily price some of us out of the market, but there are some options. Here are three ways that the folks at Universal Appliance and Kitchen Center (UAKC) can help you get appliances you'll love at a price you can afford.1. Chose a different luxury brand.If price is a consideration (isn't it always?), don't limit yourself to the big names. There is a growing list of quality appliances in the luxury category that may fit your needs. Tell your appliance consultant at UAKC that you are willing to look at alternative brands if you can save money. For example, Bertazzoni is a brand that's been around in Europe for generations, but has just recently decided to export to the U.S. Check out this pro-style gas range that sells for half the price of some of the big name luxury brands.Bertazzoni Master Series MAS304GASXEFeatures 30" Pro-Style Gas Range 4 Sealed Aluminum Burners 18,000 BTU Burner 3.6 cu. ft. Convection Oven Full-Width Infrared Broiler2. Luxury Brand Name vs Luxury ProductYou may be able to purchase a luxury product that is not a luxury brand. For example, GE Monogram is the designated luxury brand of GE Appliances, and GE Monogram has a full-line of built-in refrigerators. -

24" Wide and Smaller Ranges and Cooktops
More Appliances for Small SpacesCooktops that are made to fitCommon Cooktop Sizes for appliances in the United States are 30" and 36". However, we've recently written about some odd sizes such as 42" and 45" cooktops. Also, Americans have an appetite for BIG appliances so several manufacturers produce 48" and even 60" cooktops. Now, we're going to examine cooktops and ranges made for small spaces.Many apartments and small living spaces are designed for 24" cooktops. Fortunately, there are some good choices available. This size also matches the common size for cooktops in Europe so there are several European brands in the mix.Gas 24" CooktopsMiele, Bertazzoni, Summit, BlueStar (Rangetop), Fagor, Verona, and Frigidaire (26"). The Fagor 24" cooktop pictured above features interlocking continuous cast iron grates and a triple crown burner that provides the versatility for super low simmer to maximum power on a single burner.Electric 24" CooktopsMiele, Bertazzoni, Summit, Gaggenau, and Frigidaire (26")Induction 23" (or smaller) CooktopsWolf (15"), Gaggenau (15"), Summit (12"), (15") and (23")Gas 24" RangesBertazzoni, Bluestar, Hotpoint, GE, AGA, Fisher&Paykel, Verona, Premier, and Avanti.

Appliance Colors for 2014
Alternatives to Stainless Steel Choosing Appliance Colors at UAKC Pantone has chosen Radiant Orchid as the color of the year for 2014. If nothing else, this color is sure to be a conversation starter. In major appliances, Stainless Steel continues to reign supreme, though stainless steel has not been without its challengers. A few years ago, Jenn-Air introduced Oiled Bronze appliances as a designer finish, but while it attracted a lot of attention, few sales followed. Viking has had an extensive array of colors available in it's appliance line, now pared down to about a dozen favorites. Taking a more conservative approach, Wolf has elected to add a black glass look to its oven lineup, and the German brand Miele has added Brilliant White Plus to its sleek European kitchen aesthetic.GE recently introduced a line of appliances in Slate, as a less expensive alternative to Stainless Steel, and Whirlpool is touting its Ice Collection - shiny white or black with stainless accents. BlueStar ranges offer over 750 color and finish combinations (see Radiant Orchid below), while Italian brand, Bertazzoni also has jumped on the color bandwagon. Several other European brands are also available in various colors. They include SMEG, La Cornue, and AGA.Designers have been adding touches of color to monochromatic kitchens for interest and contrast. Maybe, a few colorful appliances will help brighten your kitchen. For expert help selecting colorful or not -
