The Best Appliances for the Serious Chef

Heavy kitchen use and mediocre appliances make for a very frustrating experience. Instead, take the time to invest in the best appliances for your needs. You know which ones, the appliances that were designed with durability, convenience, and elegance in mind. Appliances made for a serious at-home chef like you.

Not sure where to start? No need to worry, we’ve put together a list of the best appliances you need for your kitchen.

Here are some of the best appliances to consider …

A Dual Fuel Range

You could pick any old range, but if you are serious about being an at-home chef, then you need a range that can give your food a quality that others don’t. For instance, having a dual fuel range means that you are getting the best of both worlds. Your gas range will provide you fast heating and intense temperature precision. Your electric oven will bring even, thorough heating for a perfect outcome every time.

Dual fuel means each part of the range is fueled by the best heat.  Thor Kitchen’s model number HRD3606U is the 36 Inch Dual Fuel Range you need – check out these features:

• Designed using timeless stainless steel, this beautiful metal is wonderful for maintaining the same look over time without growing dull, becoming corroded or rusting.
• Six gas burners, heating up to 18,000 BTU.
• Porcelain drip pans underneath sturdy, durable cast iron burner grates, making cleanup a breeze.
• Large electric oven with porcelain interior – again, for easy cleaning.
• Electric broiler for your convenience.
• CSA certified.

This dual fuel range is as aesthetically pleasing as it is durable. It is a great addition to the kitchen of serious cooks, providing ample space for large meals and professional quality that is built to last.

A Dual Fuel, Double Oven Option

If you are seeking all the perks of the range above, but you still want more, then you may want to consider Thor Kitchen’s model number HRD4803U. This is one of the best appliances you could install in your kitchen.

It is a 48-inch, dual fuel, double oven range. This range comes with six gas burners as well, but also has a thermostatically-controlled, infrared griddle for added convenience. There are two ovens, one is 4.2 cubic feet and the other 2.5 cubic feet, for a total of 6.7 cubic feet of baking space. The convection fan adds an additional measure for thorough and even baking. If you’ve got the space and you truly want the best appliance in the market, then look no further.

A Dishwasher

The best appliances aren’t always those that you can create magnificent meals with, are they?

If you are a serious at-home chef, then you are going to want to ensure that your dishes, utensils, and other cookware are being well-cleaned. After cooking a large meal, who wants to take the time to handwash dishes? Besides, if you want to maintain a more environmentally-friendly green space, then know that using a dishwasher saves more water than handwashing.

Thor Kitchen’s 24-inch dishwasher, model number HDW2401SS, is a perfect solution for cleaning up all those dirty dishes. Designed in stainless steel, this durable dishwasher is ready to handle any size load. Here are a few of the most popular features you will find:

• Delayed start that allows you to program up to 24-hours in advance.
• 45 dB noise level, providing you with a very quiet dishwashing experience.
• Three spray arms with a jet sprayer.
• Removable utensil basket for convenience.
• Child/control lock for safety.
• Intelligently-designed smart wash system.

A Refrigerator

Any great chef knows that the food will only taste as good as it is fresh. Don’t focus all your attention on cooking appliances and forget the most important – a refrigerator. After all, this is how you keep your ingredients safe, healthy, and fresh to eat.

Thor Kitchen’s 22.5 cubic foot refrigerator, model number HRF3602, is a great option – and one of the best appliances for you. Although you will discover there are many perks to owning this refrigerator, perhaps one of the best is the sheer size of it. You can keep your food items organized, making them easy to access. Plus, being counter-depth with recessed handles, you can move around the kitchen with ease.

Here are some other top features you won’t want to miss:

• Door alarm to prevent accidental spoilage.
• LED lighting so you can see everything.
• Adjustable temperature control.
• Installed ice maker.

Remember, cooking is only part of the process. Having a well-organized kitchen is important – and a refrigerator can help.

A Wine Cooler

Last but not least, every serious at-home chef needs to have a proper wine to pair with each meal. But collecting bottles can take up a lot of space. Good ones get pushed to the back and lost in the mix. Without a detailed, organized system, you end up frustrated.

Add a wine cooler to your kitchen and watch your food transform as you get lost in the depth of the wine. Maintain the freshness by storing at the appropriate temperature and delight your guests with all the meals you cook – paired with the perfect wine selection.

Thor Kitchen’s dual zone wine cooler, model number HWC2408U, offers you space for 133 bottles of your favorite wines. With two zones, you can separate the whites and reds, being sure to maintain the desired temperature in each area. Finished in stainless steel with LED lighting, this wine cooler is a beautiful addition to any chef’s kitchen.

Conclusion

Remember, if you cook like a pro, then your appliances need to be designed for a pro. Don’t waste your time on everyday appliances. Go for the best appliances that can provide you with the durability, functionality, and high-quality you need.
