Outdoor Kitchens

    Stainless steel appliances. Granite countertops. Natural stone floors. They’re not just for your kitchen anymore.
    They’re also for your other kitchen—the one outdoors on or near the patio that your family uses almost year-round.
    Americans spend $150 billion a year on home remodeling—and one-third of that goes toward outdoor living areas, estimates the Hearth, Patio & Barbecue Association. In fact, outdoor kitchens are the second-most popular home remodeling project—after indoor kitchens.
    Installing an outdoor kitchen isn’t cheap. Depending on how elaborate—and how permanent—you want your alfresco cooking and eating space to be, you can spend anywhere from $3,000 to $60,000 on appliances, countertops, flooring, lighting, storage and heat.

Appliance Trends

    Buying a new suite of kitchen appliances or a washer/dryer duo is no small commitment these days.
    Fewer of us are opting for basic white refrigerators and stoves with basic functions.
    We’re paying upward of $1,000 for fancy front-loading washers and dryers in stunning hues that match the décor of our once dank and colorless laundry rooms.
    Ovens have warming drawers; wine racks are as big as refrigerators. Microwaves are so small they can fit in a drawer under the counter where they won’t take up precious cabinet space.
    And they’re all so energy efficient that they’re making what we bought last time seem like dinosaurs.
    All of this is good. The new appliances are designed with clever conveniences that not only save us time and trouble, but they save energy and money on our gas and electric bills.
