Many Major Appliances are Made in the U.S.
Where are cooking appliances made? Customers often want to know where an appliance is manufactured. A surprising number of major appliances sold in the U.S. are manufactured here also. Let's take a look at cooking products. Here are where the Big 3 appliance manufacturers in the U.S. (Whirlpool, Electrolux/Frigidaire, and GE) make their ranges, cooktops, and ovens. Whirlpool Corporation also includes Amana, Jenn-Air, KitchenAid, and Maytag brands. They have a large facility (one million sq. ft.) in Cleveland, Tenn. where freestanding and slide-in ranges are built, as well as cooktops and wall ovens. In addition, they also build some ranges in their Tulsa, Oklahoma facility. Headquartered in Benton Harbor, Michigan, Whirlpool is the largest appliance manufacturer in the world. Over 80% of the appliances that Whirlpool sells in the U.S. are manufactured here. Whirlpool claims to employ more U.S. workers than all their competitors combined. Electrolux/Frigidaire has their range factory in Springfield, Tennessee, and has build a new cooktop facility near Memphis. It's worth noting that the Swedish firm Electrolux is the 2nd largest appliance manufacturer in the world, and has a major U.S. presence. GE makes ranges and ovens in their Roper facility in Lafayette, GA. GE also has strong ties to Mabe, a Mexican appliance company that builds GE's gas ranges. In spite of GE's affiliation with Mabe (GE has a 48% stake), GE is a leader in "insourcing", and has been adding appliance manufacturing jobs in the U.S. for several years. In addition, GE is quite proud -

New Dacor Touch Control Gas Cooktop
Dacor Continues Hi-Tech Appliance Launches Get Best Dacor Availability and Prices at UAKC Last Year Dacor Introduced an internet enabled wall oven (see below). Now, they have launched a gas cooktop with electronic touch controls. Touch controls are commonplace on electric cooktops, ranges, and ovens. However, Dacor's new Discovery® 36" Gas TouchTop™ is an industry first. There are several benefits to touch controls. In addition to the attractive smoother look of touch controls, cleanability is greatly improved. Of course, electronics offer added features not available with knobs such as safety locks to prevent accidental use - a handy feature if there are children around. Another major enhancement with Dacor's controls is the PreciseCook™ timers' ability to pre-program stop times on each burner. Not only does this timer help save energy it also prevents overcooked meals. Other features on the Dacor Discovery® 36" Gas TouchTop™ include Dacor’s exclusive Perma-Flame™ technology which automatically re-ignites any burner which unexpectedly goes out, and SmartFlame™ technology that reduces contact between the flame and grates which helps improve longevity. This is the latest in Dacor's long history of innovation, and follows last year's introduction of the Dacor Discovery iQTM Wall Oven. With another industry first, Dacor’s Discovery iQTM Wall Oven blends technology and performance to deliver a unique cooking experience. The integrated and intuitive Android™ interface provides home chefs with access to the proprietary Dacor iQ Cooking App. Now even novice chefs can perform at expert levels with a simple swipe of a finger.

Reasons to Buy an Induction Cooktop or Range
4 Good Reasons to Consider InductionHere are four very good reasons you should consider induction if you are purchasing a new range or cooktop. If you think Induction might be for you, be sure to contact the cooking experts at Universal Appliance and Kitchen Center (UAKC). They carry all the major brands and have excellent selection and prices.1. Fast to heat Induction will heat faster than gas or conventional electric heating. One manufacturer has even touted that their induction cooktop will boil water in 90 seconds. Powerful electric coils under the glass surface create magnetic induction energy causing the metal cooking vessel to quickly heat up. The pan itself is what will cook your food in record time.2. Responsive Induction cooking is very responsive. Since the power turns on and off instantly and doesn't need to ramp up or down, you'll see boiling water stop boiling almost immediately when you turn off the power.3. Very little heat transfer to cooking surface Unlike traditional heating methods, the intense heat doesn't spread to the adjacent cooking surface, making cleanup a breeze. 4. Prices are the lowest ever.Just in the last year or two induction cooktops and ranges have dropped considerably in price. There are models for nearly any budget. Most appliance brands in the popular price range such as GE, Frigidaire, and Whirlpool now have induction models in their lineup. Upgrade brands such as KitchenAid, Bosch, GE Profile, and Electrolux have some great features and represent terrific values. For top of the line -

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.

Getting Cooktops and Ovens that Fit
Finding a cooktop or oven that fits your cutoutUniversal Appliance and Kitchen Center is Headquarters for Built-In AppliancesIf you're remodeling an older home, and using existing countertops and cabinets, you may encounter difficulty finding just the right size cooktop or wall oven to replace the existing appliance. In Southern California there are many nice homes in mature neighborhoods that could use an appliance update. However, in some cases there are some older appliances that need replacing, but may take a bit of work finding replacement models that fit. Universal Appliance and Kitchen Center (UAKC) can help. Here are some suggestions for odd sized ovens and cookotps.Gas Double Wall Ovens24" wide double gas ovens are common in some neighborhoods. While 24" cutouts are not used much in new construction these days, it does appear that both Maytag and Frigidaire still make 24" double gas wall ovens. First measure your existing appliance dimensions. Then check with the folks at Universal Appliance and Kitchen Center (UAKC) to review your options.Believe it or not, there were some 30" wall ovens that required a 33" cabinet. If you are replacing one of these wall ovens, you may find that another 30" wall oven will be too small for the cutout. In this case, you'd need a filler or trim kit of some kind.Trim KitsSpeaking of trim kits, Micro-Trim makes trim kits specifically for ovens, microwave ovens, and cooktops. They may prove to be indispensable if you can't find
