Can I mix appliance brands in my kitchen? Short answer: Yes, when it makes sense.
If you&rsquo;re designing a new kitchen or upgrading your kitchen appliances, you might wonder: Should I stick to one brand or mix and match? The truth is today&rsquo;s kitchen trends are all about&nbsp;personalized design, performance, and flexibility and mixing appliance brands can be a smart move when done thoughtfully.
At KAM Appliances, we help homeowners and kitchen designers find the right balance between&nbsp;function, budget, and style, even if that means blending multiple top appliance brands.
When Mixing Brands Makes Sense
Many appliance brands shine in specific categories. For example:
<ul>
<li><a href="https://www.subzero-wolf.com/sub-zero">Sub-Zero&nbsp;</a>is world-renowned for luxury&nbsp;refrigeration</li>
<li><a href="https://www.subzero-wolf.com/wolf">Wolf&nbsp;</a>dominates in professional-style&nbsp;cooking appliances</li>
<li><a href="https://www.subzero-wolf.com/cove/dishwashers">Cove&nbsp;</a>offers ultra-quiet, high-performance&nbsp;dishwashers</li>
</ul>
These brands are designed to work together, but that doesn&rsquo;t mean every kitchen needs to follow a single-brand rule. If you&rsquo;re passionate about cooking but want to save on refrigeration, combining brands allows you to&nbsp;prioritize what matters most.
Add Personality and Style to Your Kitchen
Want to make your kitchen stand out? Mixing brands gives you the chance to bring in unique, statement pieces.

BBQ Ideas & Delicious Steak Recipe with Weber & Kamado Joe Grills

<img src="https://cdn.avbportal.com/magento-media/KAM-Appliances/240395WDP01-008_WDT750SAKZ_Set_sRGB.jpg" alt="" />As we transition into spring, it&rsquo;s the perfect time to reevaluate your home appliances and ensure that everything is running efficiently. One of the most essential appliances in any kitchen is the dishwasher. Not only does it save you time, but when used properly, it can also save water and energy. Whether you&rsquo;re wondering if your dishwasher really saves water compared to handwashing, or curious about some of the unique features Whirlpool dishwashers have to offer, we&rsquo;ve got you covered in this ultimate guide.
Dishwasher vs. Hand Wash: Does a Dishwasher Save Water?
The debate between using a dishwasher or handwashing dishes is an ongoing one, and many people wonder which method is more eco-friendly. According to Whirlpool&rsquo;s blog post&nbsp;<a href="https://www.whirlpool.com/blog/kitchen/do-dishwashers-save-water.html" target="_new">Do Dishwashers Save Water?</a>, dishwashers actually use less water than handwashing. On average, a dishwasher uses just 3-4 gallons of water per load, whereas handwashing can use up to 20 gallons! When you use your dishwasher efficiently, it can make a significant difference in water conservation, so it&rsquo;s a no-brainer for those looking to lower their water usage and save on their utility bills.
What You Can and Can&rsquo;t Put in Your Dishwasher
While dishwashers are incredibly convenient, knowing what can and can&rsquo;t go in there is crucial to keeping your dishes, cookware, and the dishwasher itself in top shape. Whirlpool&rsquo;s blog post&nbsp;<a href="https://www.whirlpool.com/blog/kitchen/what-is-and-is-not-dishwasher-safe.html" target="_new">What You Can and Can&rsquo;t Put in Your Dishwasher</a>&nbsp;gives a great overview of which items are safe to clean in the dishwasher and which should be handwashed. For example, some materials like cast iron, non-stick cookware, and delicate glassware may not fare well in a dishwasher. Always check the manufacturer&rsquo;s instructions for your items but rest assured that most everyday dishes and utensils are dishwasher-safe!
You Can Put THAT in the Dishwasher?
You might be surprised to learn that there are a number of items you didn&rsquo;t realize could go in the dishwasher. Whirlpool&rsquo;s blog post&nbsp;<a href="https://www.whirlpool.com/blog/kitchen/things-you-didnt-know-are-dishwasher-safe.html" target="_new">You Can Put THAT in the Dishwasher?</a>&nbsp;highlights everyday items that are dishwasher-friendly, including plastic toys, certain kitchen tools, and even some types of shoes. For the busy family, this is a game-changer as it helps you save time on cleaning even more items. Imagine how much simpler life can be when you don&rsquo;t have to handwash your kid&rsquo;s favorite toys or cleaning brushes!
Inclusive Design in Whirlpool Dishwashers: A Feature You&rsquo;ll Love
Whirlpool doesn&rsquo;t just focus on making great appliances &ndash; they also aim to design their products for all users. Whirlpool&rsquo;s&nbsp;<a href="https://www.whirlpool.com/inclusive-design.html" target="_new">Inclusive Design</a>&nbsp;initiative focuses on creating products that are easier for everyone to use, including those with physical limitations. This means dishwashers with features that provide easier loading, intuitive controls, and an accessible design. Whether it&rsquo;s a convenient rack design, quiet operation, or a streamlined interface, Whirlpool&rsquo;s commitment to accessibility means you get more out of your appliance, no matter your needs.

<img src="https://cdn.avbportal.com/magento-media/KAM-Appliances/Matcha_Pancake.jpg" alt="" />If you&rsquo;re looking to add a vibrant and nutritious twist to your breakfast routine, matcha pancakes are the way to go! These light and fluffy pancakes are packed with antioxidants and provide a gentle caffeine boost, making them the perfect way to start your day. Whether you're a matcha lover or just looking for a new breakfast favorite, this recipe will not disappoint.
Why Matcha?
Matcha is a finely ground green tea powder known for its earthy flavor and incredible health benefits. It&rsquo;s rich in antioxidants, helps boost metabolism, and provides sustained energy without the jitters that coffee can sometimes bring. Adding matcha to your pancakes not only enhances their nutritional value but also gives them a beautiful green hue that makes breakfast feel extra special.
Ingredients:
<ul type="disc">
<li>1 cup all-purpose flour (or substitute with oat or almond flour for a healthier option)</li>
<li>1 tbsp matcha powder</li>
<li>1 tbsp sugar or maple syrup</li>
<li>1 tsp baking powder</li>
<li>1/2 tsp baking soda</li>
<li>1/4 tsp salt</li>
<li>3/4 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)</li>
<li>1 egg (or flax egg for a vegan alternative)</li>
<li>1 tbsp melted butter or coconut oil</li>
<li>1 tsp vanilla extract</li>
</ul>
Instructions:
<ol start="1" type="1">
<li>Prepare the Dry Ingredients:&nbsp;In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, matcha powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.</li>
<li>Mix the Wet Ingredients:&nbsp;In a separate bowl, whisk the milk, egg, melted butter (or coconut oil), and vanilla extract until well combined.</li>
<li>Combine the Batter:&nbsp;Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix&mdash;it's okay if there are a few lumps!</li>
<li>Cook the Pancakes:&nbsp;Heat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.</li>
<li>Serve &amp; Enjoy:&nbsp;Stack your matcha pancakes high and top them with fresh fruit, a drizzle of honey or maple syrup, and a sprinkle of extra matcha for an extra boost of flavor.</li>
</ol>
Tips for the Perfect Pancakes:
<ul type="disc">
<li>Sift the matcha powder before adding it to prevent clumps in the batter.</li>
<li>Use a gentle hand when mixing to keep the pancakes light and fluffy.</li>
<li>Try adding a handful of chocolate chips or nuts for an extra flavor twist.</li>
<li>Pair with a matcha latte for the ultimate matcha-themed breakfast experience!</li>

In this blog, we will delve into the benefits of cooking with steam and why it has become a popular choice for discerning chefs and health-conscious individuals alike.
Nutritional Superiority Steam cooking preserves the natural integrity of food, ensuring the retention of essential vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Unlike other traditional cooking methods, steaming eliminates the need for excessive oil, which can add unnecessary calories and saturated fats. By gently cooking food in steam, you preserve its natural flavors while maintaining its nutritional value.
Flavorful Delicacies One of the greatest advantages of steam cooking is its ability to lock in moisture, making dishes tender, succulent, and full of flavor. Unlike conventional boiling or frying, which can often result in dry or overcooked meals, steam cooking maintains the moisture level. This technique is particularly suitable for delicate foods like fish, seafood, and vegetables, showcasing their inherent taste without excessive seasoning. The result? A harmonious blend of natural flavors that will tantalize your taste buds.
Health and Wellness Health-conscious individuals are steadily gravitating toward steam cooking due to its ability to promote well-being. The absence of unhealthy fats and oils often found in conventional cooking methods significantly reduces the intake of cholesterol and unhealthy additives. Steam cooking also requires less salt, as the steam naturally accentuates the natural taste of ingredients. Consequently, a steam-cooked meal not only bursts with flavor but also contributes to maintaining a balanced diet.
Time Efficiency Cooking with steam is not only beneficial for your health but also saves you precious time in the kitchen. By generating steam quickly and evenly, steam cookers reduce preheating times, letting you start cooking much faster. Moreover, steam helps distribute heat equally throughout the food, resulting in quicker cooking times without compromising the dish's quality. Time is of the essence in today's busy world, and steam cooking empowers you to create nutritious, delicious meals in a fraction of the time.
Versatility and Sustainability Steam cooking is a versatile technique that can be adapted to a variety of dishes. From cooking grains and rice to baking bread and desserts, a steam oven or steamer offers limitless possibilities. Steam also eliminates the need for excessive water usage, making it an eco-friendly option for those who prioritize sustainability in their culinary practices.
KAM COMMENT:&nbsp;Embracing the power of steam cooking is a transformative step toward healthier, more flavorful meals. By preserving nutrients, enhancing taste, and saving both time and resources, steam cooking has earned its well-deserved place in modern kitchens. So, why not embark on this delicious revolution and unlock the true potential of your culinary creations? Whether you are a seasoned chef or a novice in the kitchen, steam cooking will undoubtedly elevate your cooking game to new heights.

5.&nbsp;Measure Your Space
Before purchasing, measure the width, height, and depth of the space where the refrigerator will be placed. Don&rsquo;t forget to account for door clearance and ventilation space.&nbsp;This ensures a proper fit and allows for easy access and airflow.
Counter Depth vs. Standard Depth
When measuring, consider whether you want a&nbsp;counter-depth&nbsp;or&nbsp;standard-depth&nbsp;refrigerator. Counter-depth models are designed to align with your kitchen counters for a sleek, built-in look, while standard-depth refrigerators offer more storage space but extend further into the kitchen. We&rsquo;ll dive deeper into the differences in another blog, but it&rsquo;s important to note this distinction as it can impact both your kitchen's aesthetics and functionality.
6.&nbsp;Aesthetic Considerations
Your refrigerator is a focal point in your kitchen, so its appearance matters. Stainless steel remains a popular choice, but matte finishes, panel-ready designs, and vibrant colors are also trending.
