![]() ![]() Not sure why, but many can't seem to grasp these concepts Our Panelled appliances are a "Piece of cake" to keep clean. (2) We had a Stainless steel fridge and Stainless Steel dishwasher-What a pain to keep clean-always water spots on the freaking DW. (1) We like the look of wood-and with the ovens and cooktop, handles etc, we had nuff Stainless Steel showing. We had 2 primary reasons to go with panelled appliances. My reasons for panelling the Dishwasher and the fridge were not to hide it. Many people here feel like they havta "Totally Integrate" their appliances- as that appears to be the latest Fad, Yet they will shout To the World "I have a Miele and it is the best" then they hide it, and will even spend "Tons" of extra money to do so-I recall the arguements on what was/wasn't a "Totally integrated appliance" (Refrigerators). So much easier to use the controls and without glasses and we like the look of the controls and the digital readout-that always lets us know how much time is left. We went with Miele Optima with the front controls, when we remodelled. ![]() We didn't care for the hidden cotrols, Could not read them without glasses and you never knew how long the DW had left to run. We had a Kitchen Aid Superba before we remodelled the kitchen. In our case, it has a lot to do with what kind of image each choice would convey hence, we're very interested in why people prefer one or the other. I also have a theory that visible controls on certain brands (e.g., GE) is a sign of cheapness, while visible controls on other brands (e.g., Asko, Miele) is a sign of pride in the machinery you've chosen.įYI - we're getting a Miele Optima with a stainless front we're just not sure whether we want to get it with visible or integrated controls. This seems inconsistent, so the desire for a sleeker look doesn't seem to explain why some choose integrated controls. (If I could, I'd even get a dishwasher with a clear panel in front and would pull up a chair every evening.) My wife thinks the front-control kind is old-fashioned and is for the kind the kind of people who, in the 1980s, would have complained that they couldn't program their VCR.Ĭould you post whether you prefer visible or integrated controls and the reason for your preference.Īlthough it would seem as if people choose integrated controls for a sleeker, less industrial look, I've noticed that a lot of people get restaurant ranges with integrated-control dishwashers. I love machines and would like to see the controls on the front. We're remodeling our kitchen, and I'm trying to collect some data on what kind of people choose visible control dishwashers (the kind with the control on the front) versus integrated control (the kind with the controls on the top). ![]()
