When people walk into our New England kitchen showrooms and tell us they’re embarking on a major kitchen remodel, we know they’re both excited and overwhelmed. Anyone who has been through a kitchen remodel gets it:  You have big dreams and great ideas for kitchen appliances, cabinets, countertops and more! But there are so many questions to answer, so many decisions to make… 

So, where do you start with your remodel? By selecting the major kitchen appliances that will be the workhorses in your new kitchen — the refrigerators, cooktops, stoves, dishwashers, and even countertop appliances. And here’s why: Not only will you rely on these kitchen appliances every day, but, when carefully chosen, they’ll make cooking and entertaining fun and easy. They’ll help you reach new levels of culinary exploration and creativity. And they can become a striking design element in the space — whether they shine with stainless steel, greet you with happy red knobs, or blend in seamlessly with your thoughtfully-chosen custom cabinetry. 

High end kitchen appliances will also increase the value of your home, so investing in the best makes sense, especially if cooking and entertaining are a big part of your life, which is the case for so many people we meet in our MA & CT showrooms.

If you’re seeking the ideal appliances for your new kitchen, here’s what you can expect when you visit one of our showrooms: We’ll introduce you to the wide variety of high end appliances from Sub-Zero, Wolf, Cove, and other leading brands and help you understand what to consider when buying. How do you use your current kitchen? What works and what doesn’t in that space? How do you like to entertain? We’ll learn what’s most important to you and your family, both functionally and aesthetically. 

And then, we’ll help identify the exact models from the full line of high quality kitchen appliances from Sub-Zero, Wolf, and Cove that will best fit your needs.

Keeping It Fresh: Sub-Zero Food Preservation

Sub-Zero Refrigeration

If you’ve done your research, you probably know that many professional chefs choose Sub-Zero refrigerators and freezers over other brands, both at work and at home. And it’s not just because Sub-Zero has the most innovative food preservation technologies in the business and amazing customer service. It’s also because there are so many stunning choices in refrigeration sizes, colors, purpose and more. From refrigerators with windows, to drawer units and wine solutions, the options are endless! 

Sub-Zero appliances provide the most advanced tools for keeping food fresh, helping you reduce food waste. They allow you to customize how you store food and drinks (and anything else you might want to preserve!) to meet your unique preferences. And their stainless steel doors and iconic grill detail make Sub-Zero appliances the centerpiece of any kitchen. 

There’s a great story behind the company as well. Sub-Zero is a family-run business started in 1945 by Westye F. Bakke who needed a reliable, high-performing refrigeration system to store insulin for his diabetic son, Bud. They’ve been pioneering and advancing preservation technologies ever since. With three series of beautiful refrigerator-freezers, smaller undercounter options, and specialized wine storage, as well as a wide variety of design options, you’ll find the high end & professional appliances that will meet your needs and bring you joy every day.

Creating the Magic: Cooking with Wolf

Wolf Cooking Appliances

The next major ingredient in your dream kitchen? Wolf’s extensive line of ranges, cooktops, ovens, and ventilation systems. These are the appliances that will support you as you create the meals and events that will nourish and nurture your family and lead to a lifetime of memories.

Originally designed for professional kitchens, the launch of Wolf’s residential line made professional-level expertise and performance available for home cooks everywhere. Precise heat and temperature control take the guesswork out of cooking. Intuitive, easy-to-use settings and controls makes it easy to get the best results. And Wolf products are designed and tested to last for decades. Oh, and they are also gorgeous. Wolf creates some of the best looking cooking appliances around — an ideal match for your Sub-Zero appliances.

Wolf has been part of the Sub-Zero family since 2000 and, like Sub-Zero, the company is focused on creating equipment of the highest quality and delivering top-notch customer service. Imagine coming home to your new kitchen and being greeted by an amazing Wolf five-burner professional gas cooktop with its iconic red knobs topped by a sculptural glass hood — and Wolf’s M-Series convection oven (also with red knobs!) paired with a versatile Convection Steam Oven as well as other tech forward innovations. Great choices indeed.

Making it Sparkle: Cove Dishwashers

Cove Dishwashers

The dishwasher is not the most exciting appliance in the kitchen, but it has to work hard! And any family that creates a lot of dirty dishes, pots, and pans want one that’s efficient, effective, and quiet. Cove’s premium dishwashers go above and beyond. 

Their interiors are flexible, allowing you to adjust them easily to fit dishes, pots, and pans of all sizes and shapes. A wide array of standard and custom wash and dry options gives you the ability to use just the right amount of water and energy to do the job. And when we run a cycle for you in the showroom, you might be surprised at how quiet these dishwashers are. 

Cove is also part of the Sub-Zero and Wolf family, and their products are laser-focused on both quality and innovation, so your dishes come out dry, spotless, and sparkling. Sleek controls and customizable panels allow them to fit seamlessly into any kitchen design. You simply can’t go wrong when you choose Cove.
