Kitchen envy

Lately, I've been experiencing a whole lotta kitchen envy. My kitchen is relatively functional, but not so fabulous. (Read more about it here).

And, in case those lush spreads in the fall magazines weren't enough to have me shopping for my imaginary kitchen makeover, Frigidaire has just introduced a new line of lust-worthy appliances.

The 200 (!) revamped appliances look super sleek and offer "time-saving" features, like the ovens' "PowerPlus Convection", which is supposed to reduce cooking time by 30 per cent and pre-heating times of "less than six minutes." 

The new dishwashers offer speedier wash and dry options, while refrigerators have more storage and a fancy new organization system.

The other thing that's got me drooling is the new washers and dryers, which have something called "TimeWise" technology - meaning wash time is supposed to be the same as dry time. I hate waiting for the dryer to finish when I'm doing a serious run on laundry, so my impatient side welcomes this idea!

"Our goal was to build the kinds of appliances that would help families breeze through household tasks to create more time to enjoy the things they love," said Tom Coulman, Director of Product and Brand Development for Frigidaire, in a release. Keep an eye out for the new lines at retailers like Sears, The Brick, Leon's and The Bay. Read more about the new lines on the Frigidaire website.
