Colored or Neutral Appliances? Which is right for your kitchen?

So you are ready to get a few new kitchen appliances but can't decide if you want to add some color or stay neutral? Mountain High Appliance is here to help! Colored appliances are very trendy and can give any kitchen a vibrant up-to-date look; however, they may not be the right choice for every home.

Take a look at a few considerations when it comes to appliance color:

Appliances with color finishes can date your kitchen after sometime.

White, black and stainless steel appliances usually age without notice.

If you have a pair of colored appliances (Ex. Washer/Dryer), one may need to be replaced. If that color is not available any longer, you may have to settle for a mismatched companion.

When purchasing a colored appliance, ask yourself, "Can I live with this for 5-10 years or longer?"

Will the color blend in nicely with the other long term hues in your kitchen like the flooring, tiles, countertops and etc.

Remember: the darker the color, the more noticeable scratches, fingerprints and dents will be.

These are just a few things to keep in mind when deciding between appliances with a color or neutral finish. However, the most important thing is that you chose what you love. If that beautiful bright blue dishwasher and oven is calling your name, then by all means - go for it!
