      That is exactly like the one they had when they bought the house.

      EDIT: in fact now I think about it I think they kept the shell and just upgraded to a gas heating mechanism…

        @Giles @neph93  they certainly aren’t practical but it’s the centerpiece of
        My dream kitchen/house.

        Maybe so. Maybe not

          My first job after leaving school was assisting in delivering and fitting Aga’s and Range cookers…...heavy bastards and cost a fortune to repair. Most modern ovens in the UK are made by one company in India and simply branded for the market (my family mostly work in this field), and are all complete crap.....the cookers not the family.

            I sourced a scratch and dent (notice a pattern here?) Thermador panel ready dishwasher that has been great!  We received 2 notices regarding recalls and their service people have been great and we haven't had to pay a dime for any warranty work.  I'm pleased with it and their commitment to their products.  I was hoping to buy a Thermador fridge but never could find one for a price that worked for me.

            As far as down draft ventilation, stay far, far away.  They never work anyway nearly as well as a traditional vent hood setup…

              I actually like Jen Air, and would install if I had a pier and beam home with a down draft. All our homes are slab unless it’s rather older, and even most of them Have ductwork for a vent hood. My grandparents had Jen air in their MCM house we sold of theirs and they worked like a charm.

              Anyone use Thermador? I kind of like their intensely commercial looking kit in a residential
              Space.

              I have a client who owns an appliance repair company and I asked her the same question. She said just buy Bosch and enjoy the warranty which will replace everything every 5 years.  Which is accurate, as my parents had their dishwasher replaced in year 9 after their remodel,
              And then again for free in year 4 of the second models installation. Whoever writes their warranties either 1. Is an idiot, 2. Has a misconstrued sense of German reliability… but I do like their stuff and will probably replace my broken GE dishwasher with a BOSCH if our house dosnt sell soon...

              The Jenn Air I have doesn't have the down draft. I actually have a Kitchen Aide over head outside vent.. When I'm home, I'll post a photo.

                    Does Haraki san have a warehouse sized closet where he keeps one of each item for himself?

                    I couldn't imagine if I were him NOT keeping one of everything…..

                      Yes - the "Staff Only" areas of the Hachioji store are where he keeps all his clothes and all 10+ of his Harleys…

                              You could send it to us in Gosport.  He will be here in 5 weeks.

                                  Need some black shoes to wear with my wedding suit. Any recommendations please.
                                  £200ish

                                  Also is it acceptable to wear boots with a suit? Obviously not big chunky ones. But maybe a Chelsea???

                                    What's the occasion? For formal shoes i'd go with a balmoral captoe. If informal then I suppose chelseas could work but i'd go with a blucher if the latter. Can't think of any good brands in your range. With dress shoes I tend to spend more to get better quality and that tends to surpass the £200 range.
