    I am sure you know this, but expensive appliances are FAR less expensive than cheap ones, in the long run.

    Amazing job! If I had 100 years, I could not do what you have done.

    Don't worry, my wife agrees with you... Nothing like a $3,300 range to be buzz kill... We love the GE Profile line. We had to leave an entire set with the last house. I can't wait to fry an egg again! Oh and make wheat paste of course, Matt.

    Very nice!

    But you said cm? Metric?
  • CharlieCharlie
    Yeah, even in the US stone thickness is in metric. I guess it is because it all comes from metric based countries...

    I can give your posters a CC treatment without a kitchen... I can just wash them on the driveway and use Elmer's...

    • Is that a fax machine or a pasta maker on the bench (other end of the knives)
    • The pattern the chandelier's make on the ceiling is eery/cool
    • You put the electric switches upside down.
    Well done - happy wife?
