Any level would be so diluted it would be pointless. However I wouldn’t believe any video coming out of the US anyway. The disinformation…

I would love to be a fly on the wall when she reported that back.

Thank-you, great post. We have a convection/microwave. The microwave function is mainly for defrosting things.

I wonder if Minimax went “what is going on here?”.

I don’t run them through the dishwasher because I’m worried how it will affect the finish. My first pressure cooker was aluminium and I…

Access for maintenance should always be considered. I also believe you should always have plenty of power points. Solid brick, weatherboard…

We have to open the wooden door and the fridge door. We don’t have to open two wooden doors because we got a piece of metal with two…

Something like that would be well worth investigating. Doesn’t work for us because of the window. Just make sure you put in a power point…

I have the pro version and concur.

Some of the places we rented were OMG bad. Look up Kookaburra stoves and it will give you an idea on one place. Absolute sympathy for your…

The basics are every day usage but things like a food processor just make life so much easier. Our appliances set has been built up over 30…

That is what I was thinking. A mesh over the unit to stop the little beggars getting into the unit. Found this online.…

The Sous Vide function on this works well for cooking steaks. These really are game changing devices.

I think there would be an interesting study on comparing the aesthetics against the practicality when it comes to kitchens. How often…

I can’t live with things being dirty but a bit of visual clutter is OK. If it impedes usage it has to go away though. In our case the…

Maybe deep bench with drop downs option for appliances. Pop them up when needed. 😃

Appliances do get depressing in rental accomodation.

I find having easy access to tools works for me. I still have plenty of bench space to work with. I find having to take appliances out of…

Thanks

I would go for an InstantPot and a separate airfryer.

Scratches and finger prints aren’t too bad but you can buff them out anyway.

Sounds like you double as a mobster enforcer.

My comment above has a link to where ScanPan discusses this.

In all honesty a fairly shallow standard fridge behind a door gives you the same aesthetic with less headaches but you need enough venting…

Very true. In my case the pasta maker sits in the pantry and it drives me nuts having to take it out and put it back. I’m all about the…

Probably best to have a look at a few YouTube videos on using an InstantPot. There are a lot of them. There are also a few comparison sites…

If you are talking dishes then we have the standard dish rack at the end that holds the main hand washed dishes. We then have a couple of…

Can see your point and it is up to people’s individual tastes. In an open plan warehouse the kitchen is an extension of the rest of the…

The floor is Jarrah almost all throughout, including the treads on the stairs. Unfortunately I put carpet in the bedroom which I’m deeply…

Yeah, that is a tad of a trap. We went with an integrated fridge but really didn’t give it enough venting room in the cupboard carcass.…
