New Induction Cooking Products to watch in 2014
Trends in Induction Ranges and Cooktops Induction Cooking at Universal Appliance and Kitchen Center 2014 may be the "year of induction" when it comes to ranges and cooktops. All the major manufacturers seem to have joined the fray. Prices have never been better, and choices abound with a variety of outstanding features all available at Universal Appliance and Kitchen Center (UAKC) . Brands include everything from Gaggenau, Wolf, and Viking in the luxury categories to Bosch and KitchenAid in the affordable premium category, and GE, Frigidaire,and Whirlpool among the mass brands. Today, there are induction cooktops in both popular sizes of 30" and 36" as well as ranges in free-standing, slide-in, and double oven configurations. There is even a "hybrid" range which offers both conventional radiant cooking as well as induction. Here are just a few interesting choices: Most Flexibility in an Induction CooktopThe Thermador Freedom 36" Cooktop contains 48 - 3" induction coils that give the consumer the ability to move pans around anywhere on the cooktop, hence the term "Freedom". It's a clever design that provides great flexibility for the user. As you might expect, all those coils come at a price but if you're in the luxury market this item should be part of your consideration set. Most Powerful Induction Cooktops. Though, several brands have laid claim to being the most powerful, it looks like the Jenn-Air 36" cooktop has the most powerful element at 5,000 watts. In addition, -

Internet Enabled Appliances in 2014
Smart Appliances at CES Internet enabled appliances available today at UAKC LG Home Chat at CES 2014 They've got an APP for that! Each year appliance manufacturer's seem to use the January CES (Consumer Electronics Show) as a launchpad for their latest Jetson Style innovation. This year is no exception. LG Home Chat allows users to manage their connected appliances and devices with an SMS interface -- you'll literally be able to send your refrigerator, washing machine, robot vacuum, or other smart appliance a command or question via text message, then get a response. It pays to remember that more than a decade ago, it was at the CES that LG launched its $10,000 DIOS internet enabled refrigerator which is no longer being made, and Sun Microsystem's Scott McNealy showed a Whirlpool refrigerator paired with a tablet PC that never made it to market. Nevertheless, appliance manufacturer's are again sticking their toes into the internet waters hoping that they will not once again receive a chilly response. This time the high tech appliances don't just occupy "dream" space, but are a real part of their appliance lineup. Dacor Discovery iQ DYO230 Last year Dacor introduced it's internet connected Discovery IQ Oven in a single and double oven version. This week at the CES, Dacor unveiled a similarly enabled 6 burner range with an oven featuring the same Android powered OS. Here's the wall oven along with a writeup from Dacor highlighting its -

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. -

Below is a blog we published last year detailing your options. It might be interesting and worthwhile to look at the landscape of appliance brands and manufacturing to identify the brands by nationality and by where they are manufactured. In other words, which brands are "American" brands and what is manufactured in the U.S. By the way, we mean "made" or "manufactured" to also include assembly. Most manufacturing facilities today are primarily assembly factories where parts are attached to a chassis. American brands of major appliances include Whirlpool and GE as full-line manufacturers. Whirlpool is the largest appliance manufacturer in the world though over half their sales are in the U.S. Their headquarters are in the U.S. and they are listed on the U.S. stock exchange.
