I wanna do a minor kitchen remodel (mostly just shuffling appliances and cabinets) which seemed like a good opportunity to finally upgrade to induction.
Ideally I’m looking for a slide-in range, but I’m open to doing cooktop and oven separately given a reasonable way to make that fit in the footprint of a slide-in.
Obviously normal BIFL stuff. I don’t care about or want Smart Connectivity of any kind; knobs are great, the fewer touchpads the better, screens are off-putting; the fewer electronic components, the better; I don’t care about aesthetics at all, I like the simple, easy to clean commercial style.
Bridge elements would be nice, but not that important. Convection is preferred, a split oven would be nice, I don’t really need the storage drawer at the bottom.
Edit: I wound up going with this model from LG. Looked like the best option in my price range.
Agree with Siemens and Miele. Great kit.
I’d like to add Zanussi to that list. I have a 21 year old frost free A rated Zanussi fridge that’s still going strong. I’d say it’s saved us a fortune over the years.
Similarly old Zanussi oven / gas hob that we gave to my mother in law when we were moving house nearly 20 years ago. Only the oven element has ever needed replacing.
Edit: I may be misremembering the gas hob. Giving it away would only make sense if it’s electric as we were moving into a house with gas.
