time we are getting an LG door in door French door fridge.\u00a0 Our landlords did a complete remodel of our apartment last fall, and after doing lots of research, they selected this same refrigerator for our apartment.\u00a0 I have loved it from the minute we moved in.\u00a0 Our kitchen designer has designed our kitchen so we can have a full size fridge rather than a counter-depth fridge.\u00a0 This will give us more cubic feet to play with.\u00a0 The door in door feature is so efficient, and I love all of the storage it provides.\u00a0 When our family was here last week for the holiday, that door was a great place for storing beverages.\u00a0 The freezer side is plenty big, too.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter

dual fuel range.\u00a0 We had the 48 inch model in another house, and I called it my Cadillac because I loved polishing it and keeping it looking like new.\u00a0 I can only say positive things about this stove.\u00a0 It never disappointed me.\u00a0 I love having the four burners, but the griddle is right there in the middle waiting for pancakes, French toast, grilled cheese, quesadilla, etc.\u00a0\u00a0 You can get a peak of the stove in our last kitchen, but our new one will be the 2018 version.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"

the 24 inch Sapphire Series panel ready dishwasher.\u00a0 That means the front of the dishwasher will have a cover to match the kitchen cabinets.\u00a0 And the cool thing is that it will be elevated so we won&#8217;t have to lean over to load and unload the dishes.\u00a0 We will pull this off by placing it at the end of the island.\u00a0 I saw this feature in a kitchen showroom and knew that we would really enjoy the ease of not bending over.\u00a0 Hey, we aren&#8217;t 30 anymore.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center\"><\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center\"><img decoding=\"async\"
