    Great range and it’s in the color you need.  Steam clean is enough if used periodically don’t let it sit too long or the build-up of grease will be hard to maintain. Self-clean incinerates the grease steam clean helps it slide off if that makes sense. Self-clean usually damages ovens due to their excessive heat so no problem for me here.  Go for it.

    So if you live in a climate where you risk the garage  freezing temp and want no freezer have you checked out the Gladiator garage fridge from whirlpool? Its specifically made for this..  Has casters to move easily ,  large capacity , kick to open toe kick if hands are full and works in low temps.   Gladiator Garage Works https://www.gladiatorgarageworks.com/products/17-8-cu-ft-all-refrigerator

    So not sure if you follow me on Facebook but if you do then yes! I love the 604 from Kitchen aid its a tank for the money. 704 really if you want the lights inside not much more features but availability is king right now. Kitchen Aid thumbs up from me.  Very good option equal to the 800

    You know I was going to say like a nice induction Wolf or Fisher Paykel but then I saw the bonus points and was like I need to work for this one. So I always felt the best for the money in electric is a good GE Profile, packed with features (on select models) reasonable. Just a good solid stove that seems to hold up.  Here is a model that is in their profile line retail around $900-$1100 but if you drop down to a non profile lose a feature or 2 price will come down a few hundred. This unit has some great features GE Profile

    You mean you don’t like buried food you find with freezer burn 5 years later? So side by sides making a slight comeback much more organized space but very limited in the width. Since people use the fridge 70% more often it made sense the french door design.  Its a toss up arguments on both sides.  when using ice and water in the door a side by side to me is the most reliable as the icemaker is where it should be and that is in the freezer.  Side by side may be good for you but nice to have an extra freezer somewhere as well for bulk items.  Sounds like you need a nice side by side!  look how organized!

    So European style Dishwasher Miele Bosch etc all have removable  washable filters that require routine cleaning as they have no real food disposal system built in. Even some american ones have those to but the European ones definitely have more parts that are breakable on them. While all dishwashers need some sorts of maintenance I am a Kitchen Aid  guy here. The 404 604 704 series have virtually a maintenance free filtration system. You literally do nothing unless you may break a glass. Normal routine maintenance of running some cleaning solution or vinegar through them will keep the pump and wash arm free of small particles for many years!

    great article on it here  KA DW Filter

    So if your talking freestanding i’m always so partial to weber love their quality for the price but I will assume you mean built in since you are asking for a fridge as well. Many many choices based on quality features etc. Lets start with basic to upgrade based on budget.  Entry level prob a Napolean as you can get a large grill for the money, step it up to a full stainless grill I would go to the Lynx Sedona then the XO then one of the nicest is the DCS 9 series, packed with features works well in windy conditions or by the water.  Refrigerator similar issue, you have your cheap dorm style fridges people use all the time but I do not like them for outdoors. Well worth it to jump to a true outdoor unit like a Summit SPR series or  similar. One that is UL rated for outdoor use standard 24″ width meant to be built in is my suggestion.   So budget dictates a lot here but try to stay away from unkown names as parts will be an issue and they are usually made of a lower grade stainless that will just rust away…
