Appliances... Ugh

I have come to loathe appliances. We're looking for the perfect combination of looks, size, price, functionality and decent reviews. On top of this, ideally our appliances would all "match." I'm positive that someone in the appliance business started this nonsense about all appliances matching. It's ridiculous. Just as you find the perfect refrigerator (great look, right size, good reviews, decent price), you find out that the "matching" dishwasher is terrible or way out of the price range.

We have done copious amounts of research on appliances. Where we've netted out is to go with BOSCH. I didn't know much about this brand before our renovation project, but the look and the price are right on par with what we were going for. Plus, the reviews are decent. So, the current thinking is:

Bosch Duel-Fuel 30 inch Gas Range (from Ferguson)

Bosch 800 series French Door Refrigerator (from Ferguson)

Bosch 300 series Dishwasher (shocker, from Ferguson)

Still TBD on the range hood. Steven has given us some guidance on the BTU/CFM conversion and I'm fairly certain we'll be going with a 350-450 CFM range hood, which is good news since it's less expensive than a higher capacity hood. We're thinking something like this:

Frigidaire 30 inch range hood (400 CFM) Via Ferguson

Broan 30 inch range hood (200-450 CFM) Via Lowe's
