Giving your kitchen a new look before putting it up for sale? Stainless steel appliances can add value to your home by giving your kitchen a sleek look, but they can also put a major dent in your wallet. Fortunately, you can achieve the stainless look without going for actual stainless steel.
Here are some tips on upgrading to stainless kitchen appliances without spending a ton of money:
- Fridge: Set aside roughly $1,000 or less for a stainless fridge. Make sure you choose one that will fit in your available space. Depending on how much room you have, an 18-cubic-foot fridge should work fine. You can go with one that’s 22 cubic feet if you have enough room to accommodate its height. If you just want stainless for the front of the fridge, there are models available that have a stainless front and black sides.
- Range: Prices can vary for stainless ranges, depending on brand and design. You could end up spending as little as $650 for one. You can choose a range that’s completely stainless or one that’s a mix of stainless and black for a little contrast.
- Dishwasher: For a dishwasher, you’ll probably spend around $600 or more for one that’s all stainless. You can find ones that mix black with stainless at a lower cost, but the full stainless look works better for this appliance.
- Microwave: When upgrading to stainless kitchen appliances, don’t forget about the microwave. You’ll find stainless ones in a wide range of prices, depending on whether you’re getting an over-the-range one or a counter-top one.
