" This is a warming up this and it's -- heavy. Solid stainless steel. I'll push do you have to pull the court. System in the -- yeah not going to stick my head opener. So this is made back. Kitchen -- and not too many people specify an appliance like this and yet when you're putting together a dinner party. Or when you just have weekend activity going on it's nice to have this is electric right that's correct electric warming oven that you can. Keep stuff warm in until the dinner party gets underway us. Thanks for those two groups. And even in the kitchen is now an enormous slightly this. It fits in nicely right under the cooktop now you've got what six burners had. Furnace 15000 -- music -- cast iron that's good what's this round thing on top of a simmer -- act. Acts as a buffer between the burner and the pots that's a very good idea. You have to worry about burning plastic handles on a pot. We're really scorching a pot if you're using something on that big plan and of course on the left we've got a pair of ovens and again -- like the contrast of the stainless steel appliance with. The mahogany finish on these cabinets which are actually cherry wood. When you contrast stainless with a rich tone of wood like that it's very elegant. And these designs are almost retro to the early microwaves of twenty years ago to think -- death it all works. Very well with the the granite that was chosen et cetera. Now here's the latest from Kohler right this programs on the pro cooks dinner which is -- that'll help you make. -- stuff and an electric heating element and it's -- you can just fill up the pasta pot right there."

" And put the pot itself has the strainer and."

Boy this is really neat innovation isn't it it is because one of the things it just drains itself you know you have to. All the colander out and worry about scores and so it also yet you don't have to worry about accidents and also cuts down on maintenance which have to watch that's pretty impressive. All chrome to. Heavy -- Very nice."

Convection Oven Installation
Convection Oven Installation

Bob joins electrician Larry Dana in the kitchen of the Quechee farmhouse as he installs the Kenmore Elite 30" self-cleaning convection oven. The oven requires 220 high-voltage current as it will be delivering a high degree of heat. Larry recommends hiring a licensed electrician for this kind of installation. Bob underscores that, as a rule of thumb, you should always connect your ground wires first. Next Larry connects the neutral wire saving the potentially hot for last. Rather than putting the junction box back in the wall after connecting the wires, Larry leaves it floating behind the unit to facilitate servicing later on if it becomes necessary. In addition to the aesthetics, another advantage of the flush controls on these newly designed appliances is that without the clutter of toggle switches and buttons, they are a lot easier to read and to keep clean.

Completed Kitchen Tour
Completed Kitchen Tour

Bob tours the completed kitchen at his Cambridge home. The Sub Zero refrigerators have been customized in one area using the same bead board design as the kitchen walls and in the breakfast area refrigerator drawers to match the wood cabinets. Two Jenn-Aire digital convection ovens and a cook top from Brown Stove Works allow for a truly impressive cooking operation. Most of the kitchen is commercial grade with stainless steel. The exhaust vent stove backsplash and the countertops flanking the stove were made by a restaurant supply, stainless steel fabricator in the Boston Area. The counters were fabricated on site from soapstone quarried in Brazil. Soap Stone if cut upon can dull a blade so hard rock Maple butcher blocks from Eastern Butcher Block are laid on top for food preparation.

Oven Hood and Shelving Installation

Bob and Ryley install an resturaunt quality Braun oven hood vent to compensate for the lack of exhaust outside the building. The fan is equipped with two charcoal filters on either side of the exhaust fan in addition to the grease filters. The range will be vented inside the room, and the hood is the best possible solution. Also installed are Metrowire shelves.

Kitchen Design and Appliances in the Miami Condo

The kitchen is set for company, but the counters are clean and uncluttered. Appliances in white complement the adjacent living space in this open-plan apartment. The Whirlpool double-door refridgerator in white, with lots of storage and features, blends with the oven and cooktop, also from Whirlpool, and the Energy Star dishwasher with high-end features like wine-glass racks and special wash cycles. Bob challenged the crew to outfit the kitchen completely by shopping online from Sears.com. Juicers, pots, pans, blender, combination microwave-convection oven, coffee grinder and brewer, were all selected, delivered, and tucked away in this getaway kitchen designed for easy entertaining.
