Kitchen Appliances: Out With Stainless, In With Bronze!
As the Olympics begin tomorrow, I thought I would write about kitchen metals and a new trend that I see spreading in the very near future.
Jen-Air is a few steps ahead and, although they released the new kitchen suite back in 2006, we have yet to see it really catch on. Perhaps it is because not everyone can afford the Jen-Air kitchen and the competition has yet to launch a comparable option. Or maybe it is that people are afraid to choose something different. In my opinion, it is warm, comfortable, timeless and beautiful!
I can't begin to tell you how tiring it is to see Real Estate ads posted with key words like: 42” cabinets and “Stainless Steel appliances!” As if we should all be jumping for joy that yet again, someone followed the boring rule of re-fabricating their kitchen with stainless steel. It is expected. It is NOT creative and it is definitely a “quick fix” to sell. Whoever said that everyone has to have stainless steel? It sort of makes me feel like the kid at the bus stop who didn't have the same brand of back pack as everyone else and dared to be different…and was considered an outcast because of it. You better have stainless if you want to be cool!
Take a look at the Jenn-Air Oiled Bronze kitchen suite, which I think is an improvement to the sterile-ness of stainless. Jenn-Air created a true original with select refrigerators, dishwashers, wall ovens, cook tops, warming drawers and hoods that combine a rich bronze finish . The bronze finish combined with stainless steel handles and hardware give a unique impression of depth, warmth and style. Whatever style that you claim to be yours, rustic earthy look or classic town and country impression to urban modernism, these appliances could work wonders in your home.
How do you feel about bronze? Disagree with me about stainless steel? Make your argument and maybe you can sway my thoughts…but maybe not?
