We bought our appliances for our new kitchen this past weekend!! Mike has been checking out Black Friday deals online and we decided this is probably the best time of year to buy them to get the good sales! He started with Best Buy and Home Depot looking at standard appliances, then called our local Simon's Appliance store and found they were also running a sale. Simon's will match any prices we find but they also have very competitive pricing so we decided we should buy them there to support our local store and they also have great customer service.
On Thursday, 11/8/12, we checked out our options and got a quote for the ones we picked out - which of course was double than the ones we would have bought at Best Buy - but these were much nicer. It would be either a double oven range or slide in range with an electric oven and gas stove, regular microwave, fridge, and dishwasher.
After thinking about it more and looking at tons of pictures of kitchens we decided to switch to go with a built in oven and microwave unit, separate stove top, fridge, and dishwasher - all KitchenAid. With all the work we are going to be putting into the house, this is our chance to make it look nice so we might as well spend a little more and get what we really want. So....now we tripled our original Best Buy pricing.....oh well, the kitchen will look awesome!!
Of course I was a little unsure of our choice, it's hard to know what you want until its there and you feel like you want something else. After talking to some friends about our selection I feel more confident and am excited!! Now to wait for more progress to be done! Crazy to think we will not even be using these until maybe even summer time!
