At Designer Appliances, we’ve been providing our customers with high-quality appliances for over a decade. What we’ve found is that many of our customers want more. They come to us with questions about where to get started with their renovation project. Which designer should they choose? How should they decide on a cabinet maker? Which dishwasher or washer and dryer brand has the most reliable history of quality?
That’s why we decided to create this channel. To find a new way to serve you everywhere. We developed our videos to give you everything you need to know to make the most informed decisions possible.
We’ve always prided ourselves on being everything we can be for you. This channel is an extension of that vision. We hope that it will give you the same experience as our stores-leaving you feeling more confident and inspired by your choices than when you came.
Bbig fridge with barely any true cu ft space. Bbig waste of money. Big time expense to maintain when warranty is out and the all need constant maintenance over the years. Just buy a nice $2000-$3000 fridge and you will have more choices at a cheaper cost up front and over the years. Im a dealer and smh every time people insist on the built in optiion. Happy to take your money but u will hear my opinion before u waste it.
We just bought the 300 one & hope we’re not disappointed. Not sure we like not having buttons, just a touch pad but guess we’ll get used to it, also trying to change settings rather confusing also. Wish the manual had better explanations
I used to have an induction, hated it because it boils/cooks in intervals. Is there any induction out there that doesn't start and stop every few seconds?
Do you know of anyone having issues with the 500 series when the door pops open warping the cabinetry on either side? (I have high gloss white cabinets and am replacing a panel ready dishwasher because the steam affected the door panel...) This was a very informative review, thanks
I just got the Bosch 800. Well, I love it. Things I noticed and don't care for ... is You have to open the door pretty wide to have it stay open to set the cycle for washing or use both hands one to hold open the door and the other to set cycles. It also makes a loud click when I shut the door to fully close it..tech said this will get a little quieter ! I also really miss not have a dish cloth hanger in front as my old machine had. 4 things...sure hope it really can clean up a lasagna pan I will see :)
Congrats on your 800 series! You will love it. For the door, that can actually be adjusted by the installer, it's called 'door tension.' Ideally, the door should stay steady at any angle. Hope that helps and let us know how the lasagna pan goes!

We always recommend using an exhaust fan or ventilation system when cooking on any type of cooktop, including an induction cooktop. Even though induction cooktops don't produce the same amount of heat and smoke as gas cooktops, they are still used for cooking food, which can produce smoke, grease, steam, and odors that need to be vented out of the kitchen.
Do not buy the GE Cafe refrigerator. It looks beautiful but it will only cool from 41-51 degrees at best. It is the worse refrigerator I have ever owned. GE will do anything to NOT replace it. I am 65 and have owned many refrigerator's over the years GE Cafe is the worst! Buyer beware.
I love my lg 2 in 1 washer dryer! Honestly it dries clothes really well and I have been happy with it! Only problem is that you do need to wait a longer time for drying but that’s really it!
We have 2 beko washing machines in work (WTL84151W) just the standard 8kg 1400 spin they are cheep and cheerful and pretty quiet the last beko excellence machine lasted nearly 9 years of daily use bearing in mind I work for the military in the uk and some of them live in the building so the washing machines downstairs (beko) are in constant use up to 5 times a day some days. The two beko condenser tumble dryers are 8 years old to although the 1 is starting to make a rumbling noise when going round but I would say it’s done very well to last this long. I have a beko fridge freezer at home and although I do hear it start up sometimes it’s definitely not loud and you don’t even notice it after a minute. They are pretty reliable and got lots of features, if my LG washer/dryer broke beyond repair then I would definitely get one of these beko brand.
I HATE when people use the word investment when buying a product that will 10000000000000% DEPRECIATE in value. An investment is something that at least had a chance of making a profit ROI I’m unaware of ANY appliance in history that has increased value over time
Really good video. I'm sold. I have had dual fuels, which I like and electric slick tops which I don't like. I am starting to shop for a new stove and at my age it is possible it might be the last one I have. I believe this is the route I will go. Thanks...
My husband bought us an Asko dishwasher recently and it doesn't dry any dishes, hardly washes them, and is meant to be a top brand?! Fairly useless if you ask me. I don't know if there are any dishwasher tablets that work better with this brand but I'd like to find them. Even the crappy dishwasher we had before worked better.
I've had Weber charcoal grills since I was a kid - 60 years back. Love them. I bought a Weber gas grill, and it was/is amazing. But after 4 years I had to replace parts. Some expected, others not. The issue I have is some of the parts no longer existed. One of the reasons I like Weber is its popularity, so expect to be able to find parts. That said, after 7 years it was completely toast - rusted through and falling apart. I replaced it today with a new Genesis model. Thing is, I only got 7 years out of the last (somewhat painfully), and I take care of my grills. I have a cover for the winter, I keep it clean, and so on. So, why comment? I'd like to see Weber step it up a bit. So, so close to perfection! That said, better than any other gas grill I've experienced by far. So far. In my case, price is not the goal. Reliability and functionality is.
Still using our 1986 top loader basic model Maytag. We had to finally replace the matching dryer a couple of years ago and the metal housing is so much flimsier!
Do you have any induction cooktops that have integrated down drafts? I have used them in Europe. Are they available in Canada yet? I had induction cooktops in my lab in the early 1970’s. One large, one small that each could hold a matching beaker. They each had Teflon coated magnets ( looked like white sticks of school room chalk ) that spun to stir the solution as it headed. I think cooking with anything other than induction is antique.
When you ballin on a budget it's 1. Price - I only got (X) amount of money 2. Size - I can't afford to move all my cabinets 3. Fuel Type 4. Style 5. Feature's
I'll just add on here for those who are blind and visually impaired like me... The Samsung products can be equiped with a Braille Overlay, which makes using the product more accessible for those who know how to read braille. The Smart Things app is also accessible on both IOS and Anddroid devices with Voiceover, Talkback, etc.
We have decided on the 850 Pair in Blue. If they do vibrate a lot more than my Old Kenmore I will really be disappointed. We have a Ranch with an un-updated/finished basement but nothing really gets mold? Let you know how it turns out. Oh and think we will not get Pedestals mainly because my Wife is kinda short. And Thank You for the Great Video!
My 500 series both have stopped working and the units are just under 5 yrs old and i do not use them a ton. I just ordered the 300 series. I purchased the 5 yr warranty from the purchase company as Bosch only has ONE year of warranty. I do love the company so wanted the quality but disappointed with what my 500 series did.
It is my understanding that many ventless dryers you need to clean the condenser on a very regular basis - like every 20 loads. Exception is the LG compact dryer which uses water from the load to clean the condenser. You still need to check it regularly, but it stays clean through the use of water on the condenser. Even in that case you have to add a liter of water through the vent on the system every 20 loads to help clean it out. Still appreciate this review although it misses that key maintenance fact. Also, times are impacted by how warm your room the dryer is. If it is 70, the dyer can take 2 to 2 and a half hours for a comforter, and 90 minutes for a regular load of clothes.
I've had the LG WKGX201HBA stack washer and dryer for eight months but it's been serviced three times so I've only been able to use it for four months. I'm currently trying to get Home Depot to replace it but they say no. LG says "too bad". What a piece of junk.
