Added Counter Space

When we bought our house I had mixed feelings about this "appliance garage". It turns out that we didn't use it and we would rather have the extra counter space. We also figured out that because it is next to the sink when we rinse dishes the extra water goes inside. While cleaning it out we figured out that bugs like it inside because it stays damp. So with all the things like bugs, mold, and wasted counter space we decided to take it out.

Before
After
It looks so much better after it's gone. We gained about 3 square feet of counter space. It's been great. In fact it's weird to think that it was ever there to begin with.

MY NEW STOVE

So lately I've been doing a lot of research on stoves. We knew we needed one and we wanted electric glass top. I originally wanted a convection oven, but we needed to get it at a relatively cheap price, so I decided that wasn't something that I had to have.

Anyway I found a nice stove at Home Depot (Sorry Matt) online for $448. I wanted to see what it looked like in person so tonight we went and checked it out. When we got there it was marked at $499, so I asked a sales rep what the deal was. He looked it up and I was right (of course). The guy went through the process as if we were to buy the stove and this stove came up at $399 (the guy said corporate messed up and marked it wrong. Good for us.). We jumped right on that. After much convincing, Peter gave in (if it's not computer related he has a hard time spending more than $50).

Any way a couple of the features that I love about this stove are:

  • Oven Lock for child safety (really important)
  • Delayed Oven Start
  • Self Cleaning
  • Glass Top with two 10" burners in the front
We are (mostly me) really excited about getting to cook on this thing. I also love the glass top, because it is really easy to clean and adds extra counter space.

For those who are worried about having to help move this, NO NEED it will be delivered free of charge to our new home it two weeks, March 20th.
