Companion? Don't you mean in the bedroom?

If you ever did anything in a kitchen besides fill your face and fart

Mine would be a replicator......like the ones on Star Trek The Next

Please stay on topic. The OP specifically asked for an electrical
appliance and no matter how you look at a pooch...they just aren't
electrical.

OFGS lighten up, would you! The OP asked what "our constant (or
favorite..not going back to check) companion" was in the kitchen, so I
was answering his question. Since when is an appliance a COMPANION?? At
least I did mention FOOD in my post, and wasn't talking about robotic
dolls with usable parts, etc.

Since when does this group stick to topic anyway? I have been posting
here since last Sept. and there have been many Off Topic threads, that
have absolutely nothing to do with cooking.

A crane to hoist dh to the table when the meal is still hot and then
to drag him over to do the dishes. How about that for dreaming?

I have never used 4 burners at the same time in my life. So I would like
a two burner range with simple flat free space (heat resistant) beside
the two burners. I could use that free space to plug in any table top
appliance (toaster, crockpot, etc) or set a platter down, etc. I dont
like bouncing in the morning from stove to counter back and forth while
preparing breakfast-I want the stovetop to truly be my work zone.

I love those ranges with the new double ovens where the thin upper oven
is perfect for frozen pizzas/cookies/etc and the bottom oven is still
big enough for the turkey. I prefer a plug in electric range to builtin
because of the ease in replacing plus I like to be able to thoroughly
clean around it. I have always been afraid of gas stoves and don't want
one ever.

I think its past time to redesign the racks inside dishwashers. Every
kitchen should have two so you can cycle from clean to dirty and back
again.

I am tall and I want the tallest fridge there is with the freezer on the
bottom. I want a small "cabinet door" on the outside of the fridge where
I can store butter, oil, bread at a more moderate temp than inside the
fridge. I dont like all those kooky bins and special shelves inside the
fridge-they just eat up space-I want multi racks of adjustible
interspacing but otherwise the racks are flat open from one side to the
other. The door should have similar racking. I dont want glass surfaces
inside my fridge-stainless steel wire. I can see some value to a U
shaped fridge :-)

I prefer two sinks separate each with own faucet and maybe 6inches
counter space between. I hate faucets that get in the way-wouldnt mind
trying water piped between the two bowls and shooting out a hole in the
sidewall of the sink?

Get some burner covers, or a double-size griddle. Problem solved.

That's what my mother does-and then she goes ape shit crazy if you turn
on the oven without removing the burner covers. Less is more :-)

You need to look at the 'smoothtop' ranges. When not on, they double
as extra counter space.

Yes, you still have 4 burners and the option to use the different size
ones for different size pots. But you also have the completely smooth
surface that can be used for a crockpot, toaster, etc. These are
'plug-in' stoves and not a cooktop although those can be installed as
well.

Why are you afraid of gas??

You need to go appliance shopping as they do have the 'cabinet door'
on the outside of the refrigerator. They've been around several
years.

Why? You like cleaning up messes that drip from one shelf all the way
to the bottom and the drips that get on EVERYTHING as it makes it way
to the bottom shelf?? And don't say you don't ever have a spill or a
drip as we'll all know you are not truthful.

What kind of place are you living in? Cannot you not swing your
faucet out of the way? My single-handle Kohler will _completely_
swing away (left or right) from the double sink in my kitchen. And
why the wasted "6 inches of counter space" between these 'dream
sinks?'

Here is the original post: "What is, or would be, your ultimate
electrical appliance companion in the kitchen. It can be based on a
real appliance, or one that hasn't been invented yet".

so it's obvious you went off topic. Don't do it again or you will
banned forever.

Your dog is an "appliance"?! Do you really drop that much food on the
floor?

LOL what a joke you are. Who died and made you the group police sergeant
anyway? If that were the case (being banned for going OT) then 3/4 of
the posters wouldn't even be here!

I would consider a DOG more of a "companion" than an appliance, as never
heard of any appliance being referred to as such?

It doesn't take many "droppings" to satisfy a 11 lb. dog. Our five cats
are bigger than he is, and sometimes I purposely drop small pieces of
raw veggies on the floor when cooking, as he loves them.

You need to chill. I have a slight suspicion the Clown was not
entirely serious.

She obviously doesn't think so.

But definitely not like the Replicators on Stargate - SG!!

A fridge with some kind of foot pedal to open the door when both hands
are laden with putaways.

A foot pump at the sink to save water and work up some calves.

It's very rare when doing kitchen work that food falls off my counter.
possibly an errant grape may roll off once in ten years... she's
obviously a filthy slob but at least she admits it... I'm imagining a
watermelon falling on the floor, it would kill her electric dog.

My radio then. It keeps me company when I'm cooking.

Our gas stoves growing up were wide enough to put a Rubbermaid hot pad
between the left and right burners. That would hold just about any pan
we used. Our stove included a cabinet for pots and pans, to the left
of the oven and the broiler.

Like a giant toaster oven? That might work.

I've always been leery of electric stoves because the burner can be
hot enough to burn you even when it's not glowing.

With a back door that lets the dirty rack slide outside? Or like a
lazy Susan?

Do you like to do deep kneebends, or do you never use your freezer?

I love the side by side ones.

That would make it hard to fill the pasta pot, or the pail when I wash
the floor.

A hybrid smooth cooktop with both radiant and induction burners. As a
matter of fact, we just contracted for our retirement home in Florida,
and I'm having such a 36" Electrolux hybrid built in.

Anyone know of any others? Wolf doesn't have one, or I'd have gone for
it. Their modular 15-inch two-burner units have inconvenient control
positions, so I passed on them.
