Denver’s Natural Stone Sales Discusses Things To Consider When Designing Your Kitchen Part II


When thinking about redesigning your kitchen, there are many, many factors to consider. You must think about the layout, the lighting, the flooring, the type of appliances, and so much more. Thankfully Denver’s Natural Stone Sales can help you with a lot of these considerations. 

Last week we discussed a few factors to consider as far as the layout of your kitchen goes. We talked about the function of your kitchen, as well as storage. Lets take a look at some more factors you need to consider when redesigning your kitchen.

Denver’s Natural Stone Sales recommends you also consider the types of appliances you want in your kitchen. There are of course the typical appliances you need in every kitchen—a refrigerator, a range and stovetop, a sink, and probably a dishwasher. For these, you need to think about your needs. Do you need a large refrigerator to accommodate a large household? Do you want four or six burners? Do you want a convection oven?

Beyond these appliances found in nearly every kitchen, you may also want to consider other helpful appliances. What about a warming drawer? These are great for special occasions when many food items need to be prepared and ready at the same time. Think about big holidays such as Thanksgiving (right around the corner) and Christmas. Do you host a lot of friends and family? You may want to include one of these helpful drawers. 

Or maybe you want a water purifier as part of your sink, or other specialty items. Think about these as they can all be a part of your dream kitchen redesign. It is your dream kitchen, so dream away.

Once you consider all the appliances you want to include, you will want to think about the style and type of these appliances. Do you want stainless steel? There are many benefits and a few drawbacks to this. First, they are easy to clean. This is important because they do show dirt and fingerprints easily, so you will be cleaning them often. 

Next, stainless steel appliances fit well in a variety of kitchen styles and themes. Because of their silver color, they work well will many different color schemes. This color is consider a neutral, so it is very easy to work with. 

Another drawback is that they can be expensive, especially when compared to non stainless stain appliances. However, with proper care and maintenance they can last a long while, making these appliances a worthwhile investment. 

One other thing to note is that some stainless steel appliances are not magnetic. Soif you are the type that loves to have your kids’ art and family pictures displayed on your refrigerator with fun magnets, this may not be the right choice for you. However, if you like things neat and streamlined, this is your pick!
