Siemens Avant Garde hood

By Creede on Nov 26, 2008 under Tags: , , ,

2006 10 Siemens-Avantgarde-Ventilation-Hood
We’ve been watching the classifieds for a while now to see if we could get any good deals on some of our kitchen appliances. We finally had some good luck the other day when we stumbled across this Siemens Avant Garde hood for only $450. It’s 36″ wide and normal prices are well above $1,000, so we feel like we got a pretty sweet deal. I actually really like the minimalist shape of it too.
We have drywallers coming in tonight to patch up the whole kitchen, hopefully they will be done by this weekend. We will probably start painting and putting in our Roppe rubber flooring sometime next week. Things are finally starting to come together.
One of the last things on the list is to order our countertops. We decided to go with laboratory counters from Trespa. At a quoted price of $15 a square plus fabrication, you just can’t beat the price.

    That is a great hood. And those counters are a great price! Are you getting them in white? I’d love to see them.

    We are actually going to do our counters in black. The price really is amazing.

    Creede, love your blog! Great to see all of the renos, etc.

    May I ask, what kind of Trespa material are you using? “TopLab”? One of the others? Also, did you just go through one of the contacts on their site? Doesn’t seem to be many options up here in my area.

    Thanks!

    Dave, yeah it’s the top lab. I called and asked for a sample and they had I e to me in a week. I just called the local rep and got pricing from them. We should be placing our order in a week or so.

    Plenty more pics and details to come.
