You probably remember the old AGAs with built-in heaters if you have heard of AGA.
We used to nearly suffocate in the summer near our display, but AGA has changed.
They still have their cast iron ranges with heat but a no-heat alternative.
You don't need to vent the oven anymore, so they are a lot easier to install.
AGA has three series, the Classic, Mercury, and Elise, in different sizes, including a 48-inch induction model.
It's a unique-looking range with side-swing doors, so you no longer have to lift food over a drop-down. You also have a separate area for your broiler.
My mom used to broil a lot, and she would have loved this range.
But AGA has something Sub-Zero, Thermador, and Miele do not: colors.
They come in beautiful colors and different handle styles, so your kitchen can finally have a unique look.

Want the professional look of a Wolf but don't want to spend as much?
Monogram has a stylish, professional look with brass accents, better pricing, and rebates of up to $4,500.
They also have some decent features.
Their refrigerators cool with intakes under each shelf to maintain proper temperature. You can thaw and cool in their crisper drawer, and they have water and ice dispensing options.
Monogram's pro ranges are competitive with your favorite brands, with a 23,000 BTU output hotter than any of the big three brands.
They also offer infrared grills and griddle options. Their 7-inch touch control screen and smart functionality may be among the industry's best.
Their brass accents are a nice touch. You can buy brass doors for the refrigerator and their pro hood.
Monogram is a good consideration, and its appliances cost less than those of more established brands.

BlueStar is a family-owned, American-made company, and it's different from most other brands in three ways.
BlueStar's ranges have a super high output, at 25,000 BTU max. That's much more powerful than a Wolf, Thermador, or Miele Pro range.
Every BlueStar appliance is designed to handle an 18 by 26-inch commercial cooking tray, so you have good usable capacity in their ranges and their refrigerators.
Additionally, you can choose 1000 colors with BlueStar, 997 more than Wolf, and 999 more than Thermador and Miele.
BlueStar started as a stove company, but its refrigerators are decent as well.
They are all stainless on the inside with two compressors, and their shelving is wide enough to hold a commercial-sized sheet pan.
Lastly, BlueStar has some interesting hoods if you want to use a vent as a focal point in your kitchen.

OK, we have covered the fun and quirky luxury brands.
Now, here are two you should really pay attention to.
Look at our wall oven display; they all have the same design: stainless steel and black:
Now, look at Gaggenau and its unique industrial design:
Your kitchen will stand out more with Gaggenau appliances than any other brand. But it's not just beautifully designed.
Gaggenau is worth the consideration if you are looking for the best cooking appliances.
Their ovens have 17 modes for preparing any food and can be adjusted in one-degree increments, not five like the other brands.
Their steam ovens are amazing. This is the only brand that allows you to control the percentage of steam you use while cooking.
Their coffee maker also offers 34 different recipes that are made automatically.
Now for the brand with the potential to be the most popular in the next five years.
SKS is LG's upscale division. It engineers products much quicker than any other brand and is more attuned to trends than the others.
It also produces more of its components in-house than most brands.
But what they do well is simplify the complex.
Their wall ovens feature steam and speed, prompting you with pictures; it also calculates the cooking time of your food when you select how you like it prepared.
These simple, intuitive controls can also be found in their pro ranges, which have good output, with a max output of 23,000 BTU.
Their range also offers sous vide options, which are precision boiling in a bag, and induction options. Their chromium griddle is simple to clean—just wipe it off.
Their 48-inch pro range also offers a steam oven, which is the healthiest way to cook.
SKS's new 48-inch refrigerator is integrated into your cabinets with a French door up top and four drawers below.
It offers two kinds of ice and a flexible drawer that can be converted into refrigerators or freezers.
Watch the video below to learn all about SKS's latest advancement, the combo wall oven.
You may still buy Wolf, Sub-Zero, Thermador, or Miele. That's not a bad choice. They are great brands and worth your consideration.
However, think about how you use your appliance.
Some of the newer brands offer higher output, more control, and even color options.
