Lee, we had Bath Fitters do our bathrooms, even the ceilings over the
shower, and backsplash over the sink. The acrylic is wonderful. No tile
grout to get moldy or discolored. Only thing is that you can't use just
any old cleaning product like you can with tile. We love the convenience
and cleanliness of the acrylic showers.

Speaking of cleaning, a non-negotiable for me is a real hood over the
cooktop, with the fan vented to the outdoors. I do not know how people live
in houses and apartments with those crummy charcoal recirculating things.
They obviously don't cook like I do! <G>

Absolutely! A proper outside vent with a good fan system is a must!

I looked for the list of products they told me I could use, and the list not
to use. Here it is. I don't know if vinegar is OK, but bleach definitely
is. I was disappointed when I got it that I couldn't use Dow bathroom
cleaner, but we do fine without it. I have a tile shower in one bathroom
and the other two are bath fitter bathrooms. I think the acrylic ones are
easier to keep clean.

OK to use for cleaning on Acrylic showers

Well, you might be wrong about that. I love that retro stuff, including the
formica table, chairs, and the avocado green appliances. I don't have them,
but I wish I did. :-)

I have the charcoal thing. It usually isn't a problem. But then I don't do
very much frying.

This house had the harvest gold appliances, but the green bath fixtures.
Both were horribly dated looking, and the formica vanities were chipped, had
no shine to them, and were really and truly ugly. If I still had them
you'd be welcome to them, but they long ago ended up in the dump!

I have the charcoal one currently but it isn't working due to an electrical
problem.

In the military housing on Cape Cod there was some little noisy fan high on
the wall, not near the stove. I don't think it did a danged thing.

in the fire i lost a brohyle, sp end table with the lion claw feet and pink
marbel insert, and a dining room set that was suspisiouly similar to the one
they used on the set of leave it to beaver, it had the curved trim on the
top of the china cabinet and buffett, and the table instead of squared off
had these rounded edges that came to almost pillow points at the corners,
cloth seat covers and removable back cushins/bolsters thingys, not sure if i
am describing correctly but that almost killed me, Lee

I never owned a good dining table. Used to have a large, cheap, kitchen
table but we had no dining room when we lived in CA and really no place in
the kitchen to put a table. So I got a tiny round table that comfortably
seats 2 people. We have managed to squeeze 4 around it at times. It has
flaps that fold down so it is never perfectly flat. It is real wood though
and the chairs are wood too.

I've never lived where I had a hood over the stove. If what I'm making
is very smelly or smokey, I open a window.

Bet you have to paint more often too. A range hood definitely cuts a lot
of cooking smoke and the residue it leaves all over the walls over time.

I had an old apartment with no exhaust fan. I think I lived there for 5
years. The paint was still white when I moved out except for in two spots.
One was when the stove malfunctioned, shooting a piece of hot, whatever the
burner is made of through my pan. It made a hole in the pan and shot blue
sparks up that left marks on the ceiling.

The other spot was on the wall where a very old hurricane lamp was. There
was a bit of black above the lamp where the bulb was.

Paint? My kitchen has panelling.

the kitchen table i lost was a round drop leaf oak table which when you put
in the leafs turned into an oval, it was every bit of a hundred years old,

I guess it depends on where you live. Here, paneling pretty much went out
with the 60's and 70's. My parent's house was built in the early 60's.
They do have paneling but they have painted it white. Most people just
remove it when they remodel.

errr, paneling as it existed in the 60's and 70's has changed
significantly over the years to keep up with current colour schemes

check the do it yourself shops, they have many kinds of paneling you can
buy, and you may even like some of them

Well... We bought this house 6 years ago. In all the houses we looked at,
we never saw any paneling.

When husband was going to finish off the back house...he never did and
probably never will...it was recommended that he put up beadboard in lieu of
wallboard. Is beadboard considered paneling? Probably.

At any rate, I have never seen any paneling that I liked.

My house has paneling in the basement and hallway, and I can't wait to
remove it from the hall and paint it in the basement. It makes any area
very dark, whereas when it is a painted surface, it gives a feeling of
space.
