Miele or Bosch or LG Washer/Dryer
Anyone have a take on high end Washer/Dryer units?
Looking at front loading only. The full size 3.5 cubic foot units (27" wide) not the smaller 24" units. The Miele looks great, but for that price, would love some feedback!
Thanks.

ipswich pine from minwax looks nice in my old limestone
light/golden in color, not dark
consider matte or satin poly finish

We are getting ready to add hardwoods in our kitchen to match the additional floors in the house. Currently the floors are stained Golden Oak, but I wondered if the stairs leading to the second floor needed to match. I really wanted something darker that would complement the Golden Oak. Suggestions?

Let me recommend a great architect that knows apartment renovations and Bay Ridge very well. Professional, knowledgeable, accurate and creative. Years of experience and a genuinely nice person. A lifesaver at my home on 74th Street in the neighborhood.
