Maybe take a look at the various Electrolux wall ovens, at least one full extension roller rack depending on model, Icon models have 3, lots of cooking features, lower price points,and well thought of by some here. Cooling fan noise lower than the lowest blower speed of a good exhaust hood. The full extension racks really are a convenience and safety benefit.

Operating costs? If you can open and close the pool yourself, and you should learn to do that, the labor is free. I'm in CT. It takes me about a half-day to close my pool in the fall. I drain the water down overnight to drop the water level about 20" below normal. The next day I blow out the plumbing and cap all the water lines in the pool and spa shell. I drain the skimmer and put a couple of those collapsable/crushable thing-a-ma-jigs for freeze protection. I install the loop-loc pool cover. I drain the equipment (pump, heater, filer), clean the filter cartridges, etc. Close the propane valves on the tank and heater. To open the pool? Remove the cover. Winter snow and rain have my pool water level back up to full. Remove the plugs on the pool and spa return lines and from the skimmer basket. Prep the filter/heater/pump, which simply means closing any drain plugs, setting the cartridges in the filter, etc. Opening the gas valves for the heater. Takes a few hours to open the pool. Once open, I vacuum the pool and hit it with chlorine. I use liquid (12%) Chlorine. In a couple of days when the chlorine returns to normal levels, I do a full water test and balance as needed. My pool (20' x 40', about 20000 gallons) is open from April to mid-November. It has a side-spa. I don't heat the pool, but I do heat the spa. I have a variable speed pump, a Pentair 011018. Highly recommended. I draw about 2kW per day total running the pump on low-flow for about 10 hours a day, for about 2 hours a day it's bumped up to high-flow for spa use or when the sidewall cleaner is in the pool. It's quiet, and all the fluff about energy savings? For me it's true. Electricity is expensive in CT and this pump is saving me about $100 a month over what my old Pentair single-speed 1-1/2 hp Whisper pump cost to run. The level of savings surprised me. But it is real. Test kit? I recommend a good Taylor-type of test kit. The initial kit ran me about $100, but over time I'm probably spending $30-$40 a year to test. You need a good test kit. It'll save you big time in head scratching and in wasting chemicals as you chase balanced water chemistry. I sanitize with 12% liquid chlorine, about $3.50 a gallon. I use a little over a gallon per week, or roughly $20 per month. When I open the pool there's usually $50 each year to balance the water. Sometimes baking soda, sometimes acid, or whatever. Some years I open the pool and the water is perfect. All I have to add is chlorine. The Taylor-type of kit won't lead you astray. I spend roughly $200 on chemicals from opening day to closing day. Daily maintenance? I get cup of coffee most mornings and go out by the pool. It takes a few minutes to skim off any leaves or debris. Most days there isn't any. In spring (pollen) and fall (leaves) I may have to do it twice a day. Takes a few minutes. Once or twice a week I'll toss in the sidewall cleaner and let it run for a few hours. For me, daily maintenance is pretty minimal. The pool has been in now for about a dozen years. I swim most every day that I'm home. I have turn tiles on each end of the pool, so I swim laps. My kids are now out of the house. I wanted a pool, because I knew I'd use it myself. If I didn't want it and I put it in for my kids, or for my wife, or to impress the neighbors, then the pool might be a bit of a chore, even if the daily/weekly maintenance is minimal. Equipment? For a spa, I recommend you get a 400k heater. It essentially takes the same volume of propane or natural gas to heat your spa from 80-degrees to 98-degrees. A 400k heater simply does it faster than a 200k heater. I don't know much about heat pumps, but my understanding is they have a v-e-r-y slow response time. I have a Raypak 400k heater. No regrets. Easy to maintain. Pump. Already mentioned the Pentair. Quiet and efficient. I'd get another if this one failed. Filter. I over-sized my filter. I have a Pentair Quad DE 100 filter. I like cartridge filters, it may simply be because that's what I've always used. I only have to clean the filter carts once, that's at the end of the season when I winterize. With my old "properly sized" filter I had to clean the carts 2, sometimes 3 times a year. So...a lengthy reply. Hopefully somewhat useful. But it is simply my opinion on how my pool works for me. And how sometimes I work for it. lol Overall, no regrets.

Well my opinion is that he is making judgements, not opinions. An opinion is a thought that can be supported by facts. If people say things, that cannot be supported by facts - then they are just being plain judgemental. Being judgmental, in my opinion, is not a good thing, it can lead to bigotry and mostly people are speaking out , because of some sort of emotion. In the example that you gave, about his comments about homeless people, that rings alarm bells to me. He is making unsubstantiated comments about helpless people and it shows that he is not capable of compassion and understanding. I would be concerned, if I were you about your future life with such a person, who doesn't seem capable of empathy and compassion and a clear understanding of the good values in a person. Please rethink you path in life.

Cpartist do you have a door into your closet or is it just an opening? Sara could you send me a picture? I measured the actual space since they made an error on the concrete footings measurement so I ended up with more house then garage which benefits this closet. The closet at question measures 6’3 1/2” deep and 5’8 1/2” wide. Also at this point the door is centered giving about 18” on either side of the opening. I guess I could do hanging in the back and narrow shelves on the both sides. Or maybe I should have him move the door to allow for the 2’ L shaped hanging? But then the door swing may hit my vanity or bed table.
