Regarding the dishwasher, we're looking at KitchenAid due to our satisfaction with them at our CT home.

I'm still researching the range. One thing I'm noticing is it seems the single oven units seem to have sacrificed the storage drawer below for a larger oven. Totally makes sense - but for us, with a rather small kitchen, losing that drawer hurts.

Fridge wise, we require a cabinet-depth unit so that reduces options quite a bit - though I'm finding that they are so much more popular than years ago. We've always gone with side-by-sides in the past but we're thinking we'll go with a french door/bottom freezer model. Have any of you had both in the past? Thoughts on what you like best and why?
A trusted and knowledgeable friend got a Bosch dishwasher, very happy. Shorty after, we needed one too and went for Kitchenaid as it was quieter. Our first Kitchenaid lasted 25 years. Happy with the new one too.
Side by side fridges seem to have ice dispenser in the door which sacrifices a lot of space. Seems like visiting our friends, we always have to get ice from the freezer because the dispenser doesn't work or sprays water all over the floor. No room in the side by side for big items like the crock pot dish, or big turkey. Freezer too narrow for an ice cream cake. We have French door at home and at camp. Love it.
