Are your appliances color coordinated?

I bought a cobalt blue kitchen aid mixer for it being my favorite color, that
didn't match the kitchen or other appliances.

You r.f.c-ers got kitchen color coordinated "STUFF"???

Hell no. White, black, stainless, industrial gray, etc. Function first,

I would if I could ... slowly I have been turning my kitchen appliances to
brushed steel and black ... one thing at a time. It doesn't match anything
else in my kitchen ... but by the time I get everything painted and a new
floor, it will.
however I wanted the orange KA mixer ... but the model that I wanted only
comes in white. BUT, I have considered taking it to a car painting place
and looking into getting it painted.

We moved in to a plethora of 1960s-1990s appliances, mostly in bronze
or coppertone. I think I am just going to replace with white, because I like
the clean, bright look of it, and I can just change my towel and accessory
color. Our new refrigerator is white. (Stainless is lovely in big, new, well
appointed kitchens, but would look out of place in my small, old kitchen.
Also, it can look "industrial" to me.)

My DD lives in an 800 sq ft house and has updated her kitchen. I'm
going to send you a link to pictures of her kitchen before and after
(by email). I think you'll change your mind about stainless steel.

I am working on it, but not with appliances, with cookware and
pot holders and oven mitts and such.

I have a few deep shiny red enamel pots and pans, same color
(deep cherry) potholders and oven mitts, and towels and other
thing with canteloupe color, lemon yellow, and spring green along
with touches of the deep red. Sounds weird, looks delicous.

Interior decorators know that good decorating doesn't include just
buying "matching" things.

And any good designer with any worth of salt (food reference to keep
it in the group), knows that GOOD art doesn't have to match your sofa.
So....good food doesn't have to match your kitchen.

Design wasn't in question. I think color was the issue.

Not really. Everyone seems to adore [large] appliances in stainless. Not
me; give me basic white. Your blue mixer will go with it just fine

Personally, I love ss. I was brought up with it and feel comfortable
with it. As far as scratching, well it all depends on how you handle
it. You can scratch porcelain too. In fact you can gouge it. When I
bought this house, my lovely *pink* kitchen sink looked like a crane
had dropped a wrecking ball on it. There was a huge chunk of
porcelain missing - I never found out how it happened.

I wouldn't want to take care of stainless steel, although I do like the
look. Personally, I prefer black appliances, which is what we have.
Although our black refrigerator has what "appears" to be stainless steel
doors, it's actually brushed aluminum under a layer of matte acrylic. It
neither spots, fingerprints, nor stains. Right now we have a stainless
steel sink which will be replaced with a black cast iron sink as soon as
finances permit.

These days, I wouldn't bet serious money about if an appliance or sink
was ss or brushed aluminum... I have to look at the tag to know.
Let's just say I love the stainless steel "look".

Actually, I do too, Barbara, but I think it's been a bit overdone by now.
Many new kitchens or kitchen remodels are being done in more of an "old
world" look. Even the most modern appliances are being housed in exteriors
that belie their technology. I think many of them are charming. But if
it's sleek and modern you want, then stainless steel is still about the
only way to go.

Silly! How will your magnets stick if it isn't steel? My magnets given by

When we moved in to the house, when married, we installed a sub-zero fridge
that we had the option to surface the doors. We matched the walnut cabinet
molding design and it virtually disappeared. First time company would ask
"where's your fridge?"

Yes, it's possible to damage a porcelain fired cast iron sink, but it's
also possible to scratch a stainless steel sink. I can assure you, a black
sink does not stain. Had one before. :-) And, yes, they are quite heavy.
Cast Iron sinks were "standard issue" (usually in white), for many decades.
Although the white ones could be stained, a spot of bleach would instantly
remove it.

A skinned and gutted cat should ripen in a cool place, not the kitchen.

Apart from that : In the kitchen it's always function over presentation.

Are you kidding? I have black major appliances, a white KA mixer, a black
coffee maker, blue Le Creuset cookware, and 13 colors of Fiesta Ware,
including pitchers and such that are not inside cabinets.

IMHO, a kichen that contains nothing but one color of everything is sterile
and uninviting to cook in.
