New Double Oven Ranges
Thinking About a Double Oven Range? Best Selection at Universal Appliance and Kitchen Center Increasingly popular because of its ability to cook different foods at different temperatures all at the same time, the double oven range was first introduced by Maytag back in the 90s. Since then, it has become enormously popular, and all the mainstream range producers are building versions of double oven ranges. Brand names include such favorites as GE, Frigidaire, Electrolux, Maytag, Whirlpool, and KitchenAid. All are available at the two Universal Appliance and Kitchen Center locations in Southern California. These ranges come in a variety of styles, configurations, and fuel types, but all share the same idea that you can cook various foods for different times and temperatures in separate ovens. GE, Maytag, KitchenAid, and LG received top-ratings from that "leading consumer magazine". The 4.2 cu. ft. Electrolux is a front control slide-in range with the small oven on the bottom. Electrolux also offers an induction cooking option. Electrolux 30 in. 4.2 cu. ft.

Choosing an Appliance Brand
Get the Appliance Brand that Fits UAKC Has Great Selection and Low Prices If you are building a home or remodeling, you'll need to think about selecting the appliance brand that best suits your needs. Just like clothing or automobiles, appliance brands make a "statement" and the brand you select should be a good fit for the house you are building or the kitchen you are remodeling. At Universal Appliance and Kitchen Center, (UAKC) the sales associates will help you select the appliances that are the right "fit" for you. Appliance brands can be categorized along dimensions such as price, lifestyle or even generational such as millenial, Gen X or Y, boomer, etc. To make it easy we combine and simplify along mass brands, premium, super premium, and luxury brands. Think of mass brands as including Frigidaire, GE, Maytag, and Whirlpool. Premium brands would include Bosch, GE Profile, GE Cafe, and KitchenAid. Among the super premium brands are Electrolux, Jenn-Air, and Thermador. Luxury brands include GE Monogram, Wolf Sub Zero, Gaggenau, Miele, and Viking. These are broad categories are there are no hard rules here so some appliance professionals will argue for example that Thermador could be included in the luxury category, and that Maytag laundry should be considered a premium brand. But you get the idea. These are ALL good respectable brands, but they are positioned by their companies with pricing and features to fit in certain niches. The reason it's important for consumers to have a general idea -

3 Tips for Choosing a New Range
Get this info before you go shopping Best selection and availability at Universal Appliance and Kitchen Center Here are a few things you need to know before you walk into an appliance store looking for a new stove (range). Range Size (width) Fuel type Configuration Range Size 20" 24" 30" 36" 48" 60"30" wide ranges are the most common size for homes, but appliance manufacturers also make apartment-sized ranges in 20" and 24" widths. The 20" versions are getting hard to find, Danby is probably the leading brand. In 24" ranges there is a much wider selection starting with GE and Hotpoint all the way up to premium brands such as Bertazzoni and BlueStar. Look for the common 30" widths in all the major brands. 36" ranges are also widely available, some with burners on each side and a griddle in the middle. Professional style ranges are available not only in 30" and 36" widths, but also in 48" and 60" widths.

Appliance Packages that Look Great and Save Money
Reasons to Buy Appliance Packages Universal Appliance and Kitchen Center Appliance Packages Customers want to know whether it's a good idea to buy appliances in a package or if it's better to just buy them one at a time. It really depends on your individual situation. For example, suppose your old countertop microwave oven goes out and you need to replace it. Obviously, this situation hardly calls for replacing all your kitchen appliances. At the other extreme, if you're building a new house, it only makes sense to install a complete updated set of appliances in your new home. You can certainly buy each appliance in your home separately and mix brands, but there are some very good reasons to buy a matching single brand kitchen package. A single brand and style will very likely give you a matched, integrated look. You could get very upset with a blue display on the controls of your oven accompanied by a green display on the built-in microwave above it - not to mention a bulky pro-style handle on your dishwasher and a sleek euro-style handle on the refrigerator. For some people, this wouldn't make a difference, but for others it would be a constant source of annoyance. It's great to have a unified look which not only ties the elements of your kitchen together, but also enhances resale value. A single brand kitchen can often save you a lot of money. Look for manufacturer rebates on multiple appliances or FREE goods -
