Cooking Range: The kitchen is the heart of the home, and most homes in America can’t function without a cooking range. A cooking range is a one-stop-shop cooking solution that includes a cooktop or stovetop and an oven all connected to the same fuel source. It’s essential for breaking in your new kitchen. Imagine the smell of a chicken pot pie or lasagne baking away while you unpack your novelty mugs.

Refrigerator: Where else will you store leftovers and your favorite sodas and drinks? If you’re in the market for a new refrigerator, consider how much you cook, how big your family is, and how much you entertain to find the most suitable option.

Microwave: If you don’t see yourself cooking every night, microwave ovens can heat leftovers, takeout, instant noodles, and ready-to-eat meals in no time. They also defrost frozen foods, and you can also whip up some microwave popcorn for movie night.

Dishwasher: You don’t want to be spending hours at the kitchen sink hand washing your pots and pans. A good dishwasher cuts clean up time in half and is worth the investment.

Washing Machine and Dryer: You know what gets old fast? Lugging your giant bag of dirty laundry to the laundromat every time you need clean clothes. A good washing machine and dryer will save you a lot of time, hassle, and quarters.

Toaster Oven: A toaster oven is a lot more versatile than you think it is. Whether you need to hurriedly toast bread in the morning or bake a few cookies without heating up the whole house, a toaster oven can do the job!
