Discount Kitchen Appliances are Dreamy

Discount kitchen appliances doesn’t mean poor quality kitchen appliances. Buying discount kitchen appliances from certain companies can mean Sub Zero appliances and Viking gas ranges at great rates.

These products are long standing symbols of quality and have been family run, like Drimmers, for decades. The goal behind Viking gas ranges, for example, is to lead professional style cooking ranges into the home, with the safety features, heat output and stylistic designs that commercial gas ranges lack.

Sub Zero also has residential consumer in mind in ways that other refrigeration companies simply don’t. Ergonomics are important, which is why cabinetry can often overlay your Sub Zero appliances, if you choose. Plus, there’s nothing better than having the space you want when you come home from doing your grocery shopping. No need to go to the garage for a drink if you have all of the drinks in your Sub Zero.

When you have a beautiful refrigerator and a superb gas range, your kitchen is well on its way to being a retreat into the lands of food and gastronomical magic. Who knows what delicacies you can prepare with these top of the line resources? The best part about them, though, is being able to get them for a discount.

Liebherr BioFresh Refrigerator

When my refrigerator finally died (two days before Thanksgiving), I so knew I had to find a place that sold discount kitchen appliances—fast. Instead of feeling stressed, I was actually excited. I could finally get a nice refrigerator and have it in time to show off during Thanksgiving dinner.

I really liked Sub Zero appliances, but was immediately drawn to the Liebherr refrigerators. The sleek designs and contemporary interior set-up was exactly the look I was going for. Then I found the BioFresh model and fell in love.

The BioFresh is such a unique model because of it’s patented technology that works to keep foods fresher, longer. The secret is the BioFresh safes. One compartment is the low humidity DrySafe which is ideal for keeping meat, fish, and dairy at optimum freshness. The high humidity safe keeps your fruit and veggies crisp, ripe and full of the nutrients you need.

In addition, precision electronics ensure that the temperature is accurately maintained just above 32 degrees to keep you food at the perfect temperature.  Besides the amazing BioFresh technology, the streamlined design was crafted to ease clutter and facilitate organization.

Are Viking Gas Ranges or Viking Electric Ranges Better?


The gas vs. electric debate in the kitchen is just as heated as ever (no pun intended). There are quite a few advantages to both it may be kind of hard to choose between the two.

 If you’re looking into discount kitchen appliances, and can’t decide between Viking gas ranges and Viking electric ranges, here are some of the advantages and disadvantages of both types.

Gas Ranges:
They heat up quickly. Gas stoves and ovens are known to heat up extremely fast, so if speed is important to you, gas may be the way to go. They also heat evenly, which something that serious cooks care about.
On the down side, something I’ve experienced is that they’re a pain to clean. If you’re sautéing something and the food gets into the burner, you have to take of the guards and scrub out the insides, which can take some time when burnt food is caked to the oven.

Electric Ranges:

These are great because on many models you can set the precise temperature you want to work with. This can sometimes lower the amount of time it takes to cook something because the temperture is accurate. Also, these are a dream to clean because all you have to do is wipe it down, and maybe use some protective solution to keep the glass nice. They don’t heat up as quickly as the gas ranges and some people like being able to cook over a flame, so electric doesn’t work for them.

The Kitchen Triangle: Don't Get Lost In It

Refrigerators do a lot more than keep your food cold. They are an aesthetic tool that ties the kitchen together. In the same way that Wolf gas ranges anchor one side of your kitchen, Sub Zero appliances can hold down another side. Actually there’s a third side too, mediated by your sink. But this leads us into another direction: the kitchen triangle.

The three points of the kitchen are the above mentioned, sink, stove, and fridge. There are different ways to incorporate this geometrical shape into your kitchen, as there are different triangles in Euclidean geometry. Here are some points to remember when constructing your kitchen:

Do not allow for the triangle’s perimeter to be greater than 26 feet or less than 12 feet.

The triangle should not be disrupted by large cabinetry or furniture (this includes islands).

You don’t want to sacrifice counter space when constructing your triangle, nor do you want to have a narrow corridor whereby kitchen pedestrians can easily be caught and run over in the flow of traffic.

One of the more popular triangles is the oblique “L” shape, which uses Wolf gas ranges as one leg, while the sink and Sub Zero appliances are on the same side. Lengthening the L allows for more counter space and a larger corridor.

Drimmers Presents: The World's Nicest Kitchens


These beautiful kitchen run the gamut from the traditional to the modern. The first achieves its look with lighting and wood details, from the kitchen table to the wainscoting and volutes on the cabinetry. The result is a classic finish that is inviting and warm, a kitchen in which you can spend hours relaxing after dinner has ended.

This kitchen is certainly more modern, though what it may lack in coziness, it makes up for in design. Its lighting fixtures are tentacular and its black wood finish conveys cleanliness and style. The sleek Sub Zero appliances are camouflaged so well that this kitchen's purpose is undermined by its design.
This kitchen is somewhere in between the first two, as its wood cabinets preserve the classic feel, while its granite floor conveys the clarity and precision so characteristic of most modernist architecture. The fixtures on the cabinet add to this sentiment and the built in Wolf kitchen appliances further the cohesion of the space.
Last but not least, this kitchen is elegant and modern. The wine storage in the island is a great way to conserve space and the large bay window brings nature right into the home with natural light.

What do all of these kitchens have in common? They utilize space to achieve the desired results of coziness, cleanliness, style and comfort. They also make use of Wolf kitchen appliances and
Sub Zero appliances, two of the best brand names in the industry. Ultimately, however, if you want a kitchen like these, you need to think about the space you have, and the atmosphere you desire.
