This is part 1 of 3 for my review. Part 2 will be installation, part 3 after installation service. My wife and I are doing a major first floor renovation — repipe, floors, kitchen cabinets, appliances, lighting and paint. A LOT of time has been invested in appliance research because I enjoy cooking and want to make sure that function is as good as appearance. In this process, I have been up and down the value chain of low-end to mid to higher end to top of the line. I’ve mixed it up looking for best function and value. I wandered into Kiva who are near our home and met Troy. He referred me to a great kitchen cabinet company that I will review separately. He’s been more than patient, helpful and always willing to point out the good/bad and other options I may not have even considered. The result is an awesome group of appliances my wife and I have agreed on that satisfy my cooking demands and her need for clean lines and aesthetics. They are ordered and I’m now moving on to the other pieces of the kitchen with him. One person, one phone number to call — I really like these folks and so should you.
