When it comes to choosing the perfect kitchen appliances for your remodel, we’re here to help! For the best possible choice for lifestyle and budget, we proudly partner with Ferguson- a trusted name in the industry. Here's why we recommend Ferguson and some of our favorite appliances that are worth considering for your dream kitchen!
Why We Choose Ferguson for Kitchen Appliances
Over the years, we've built a wonderful partnership with Ferguson, and they have become our go-to source for high-quality kitchen appliances. We’ve developed a strong relationship with our representative, Janina Armato, who goes above and beyond to understand our clients' unique needs and lifestyles. Janina has a wealth of knowledge and a keen eye for details, ensuring that every recommendation aligns perfectly with how families live and cook. She introduces clients to features they may not have considered but soon realize they can't live without!
Key Factors to Consider When Choosing Kitchen Appliances
When guiding our clients through essential appliance selection, we remind them of a few crucial factors:
Resale Value: High-end appliances can significantly boost your home's resale value, especially your major appliances in the luxury market.
Quality of Life: Premium appliances often come with features that simplify cooking and extend the longevity of your produce.
Warranty: High-end appliances typically offer superior warranties, providing peace of mind.
Our Top Picks for Refrigerators
When it comes to refrigerators, we often guide our clients toward two distinct styles: integrated columns for a sleek, modern look and built-in refrigerators with a professional, commercial style.
Integrated Columns: If you prefer a clean, streamlined aesthetic, integrated columns are a fantastic choice. These refrigerators feature articulating hinges, allowing for tight reveals and seamless transitions to your cabinetry. Our favorite column collections come from Gaggenau and Sub-Zero.
Gaggenau Columns: Known for their sleek design, Gaggenau offers an array of options with features like push-to-open doors (eliminating the need for handles), full stainless-steel interiors, anthracite anodized aluminum door bins, and trim-less glass shelves with LED lighting.
Sub-Zero Columns: Sub-Zero’s columns come with an interior water dispenser, new shelves with built-in LED lighting, easy-to-reach controls, and an air purification system that extends food freshness.
Built-In Professional Refrigerators: For those who prefer a bold, statement-making refrigerator, built-in models like the new 48" and 42" French door refrigerators from Sub-Zero and Thermador are an excellent option with helpful features. These refrigerators are designed to sit proud of the cabinets and feature a larger reveal, making them beautiful centerpieces in any kitchen. The French door style also provides ample space, perfect for large platters or catering needs.
Our Top Picks for Ovens
Ovens are a major appliance and often the unsung heroes of every kitchen, so we love recommending models that combine functionality, innovation, and style.
Dacor Combi Oven: This oven does it all. The top section functions as a speed oven with a healthy fry feature and microwave, while the lower section is a full-size convection oven with steam assist. It’s perfect for those who love to cook with moisture for tender and juicy results.
Wolf E and M Series Ovens: Known for their large screens, user-friendly interfaces, and gourmet guides, Wolf Ovens are ideal for cooks of all levels. Wolf also offers a suite of companion ovens, including steam and speed ovens, which can be arranged in horizontal layouts or stacked for a custom look, not to mention faster cooking!

Additional Appliances We Recommend
While refrigerators and ovens are always going to be essential kitchen appliances, there are several others we recommend to our clients to enhance their kitchens:
Convection Steam Ovens: These compact but powerful appliances are not just for steaming vegetables. They can bake, roast, and broil, adding steam to cooking cycles to seal in juices and crisp the exteriors of meat and bread. We love the new Wolf steam ovens for their full touch screens and added broil element and the Gaggenau steam ovens for their self-cleaning feature and sleek design.
Under-Counter Wine and Beverage Units: For wine lovers or those who entertain frequently, under-counter wine and beverage refrigerators are a must. Perlick offers a wide variety of quiet, shallow-depth options perfect for home bars or morning niches. Additionally, the Dacor 24" Wine Dispenser is a standout favorite.
Are Smart Appliances Worth It?
Smart appliances can be a fantastic addition for tech-savvy homeowners. Features like remote preheating of the oven or notifications, when the fridge door is open, are convenient and time-saving. However, we always emphasize that the value of smart features depends on the client's comfort level with technology and their specific needs.
