At home with a range
Somebody asked me what kind of range changed into within the images I published on Monday and due to the fact that this is becoming the week of the marble kitchen, here goes. The simple answer is that it is a KitchenAid 36" with twin-fuel and steam assist.

The range went in the week before Christmas and the counters were finished on December 23. So this means that my client broke in her new range with a big Christmas Eve dinner. She was happy to have a functioning kitchen again, but it was quite a leap of faith to make an important dinner on an unfamiliar appliance. Well, the KitchenAid passed the important dinner test with flying colors. She has the same gift for superlatives that I do and she couldn't say enough good things about this range.
I'd originally specified a Wolf for this kitchen, but my client had other ideas. At least it's not a Viking I thought. It's not as if she selected this appliance to save a whole lot of money over what I'd suggested. I mean, this KitchenAid sells for $6000, and that puts it in competetition with my beloved Wolf. It was the steam assist that sold her on it and its the steam assist that has her falling in love with the thing. So she's thrilled with her KitchenAid and really, that's the only thing that matters.
