There comes a point when every homeowner starts to wonder, “Am I supposed to streamline my appliances and install the same appliance brand throughout my kitchen?” Well, the answers may vary based on your personal preferences. If you love the tasteful elegance of your neighbor’s matching JennAir kitchen appliances and want to achieve a similar look or you’re resisting the unspoken pressure to upgrade all your appliances to the same brand, the appliance experts at Garner Appliance & Mattress will help you find the perfect appliances for your home.
Three Things to Consider When Choosing Kitchen Appliance Brands
1. Personal Style:Â
Your kitchen is the heartbeat of your home, so it’s important to choose visually pleasing kitchen appliances that reflect your personal aesthetic. People tend to notice different things when they walk into a room, so take a moment to think about what you tend to focus on and what you’ll notice daily.
Do you instantly notice any slight variations in color or finish? If so, then you’ll probably be happiest if you choose a brand you love and stick with it for all your kitchen appliances. You don’t want to develop an eye twitch every time you see the color differences between your Bosch stainless steel dishwasher and your GE stainless steel range.
However, if all stainless-steel appliances look the same to you, you don’t need to stay loyal to one appliance brand throughout your kitchen. After you consider all your options, you may end up choosing different brands for your dishwasher, range, refrigerator, and microwave based on each appliance’s unique features.
2. Potential Savings:
If you’re replacing all of your appliances at the same time and want the same brand throughout your kitchen, check out the kitchen package deals at your local kitchen appliance store. On top of the in-store savings you may find, some brands offer significant rebates when you buy a suite of appliances. At Garner Appliance & Mattress, we offer kitchen package deals for all your favorite brands: Bosch, Frigidaire, JennAir, KitchenAid, Maytag, Monogram, Whirlpool, GE, Electrolux, and more.
If you worry that a package deal sounds too generic for your tastes, you might be pleasantly surprised: The best kitchen appliance stores offer a variety of kitchen packages with different appliance combinations. At Garner Appliance & Mattress, you can find everything from simple two-piece kitchen packages with a range and a microwave to seven-piece packages that include appliances you didn’t even know you needed.
3. Resale value:
People often ask our appliance experts, “Should I install one brand of kitchen appliance throughout my kitchen to increase my home’s resale value?” Here at Garner Appliance & Mattress, we’re appliance experts, not real estate agents, but we usually recommend that you prioritize your visual and practical needs when choosing an appliance instead of trying to predict what someone else might want in the future.
While it’s important to buy kitchen appliances based on your personal needs and preferences, remember that bold finishes and unusual design choices can be polarizing.
As with so many aspects of homeownership, when it comes to choosing whether you should choose one kitchen appliance brand or a combination of appliance brands for your kitchen, there is no simple answer. If you’ve considered kitchen brands based on personal preferences, potential savings, and resale value, and you’re still not sure which option is best for you, pop into your local Garner Appliance & Mattress and talk to one of our appliance experts. We’ll show you which brands tend to inspire passionate loyalty among our customers, and we’ll help you find the kitchen appliance brand—or brands—that will work best for you.
