washer/dryer for 28' deep closet?
Comments (2)I sort of doubt you could fit a full-size dryer, but you could check specs. My Asko T712 can vent to rear, right or left side. Bosch dryers vent to center or left, at least the one we looked at. So yes, you can put it almost against the wall if the vent is suitable. The washer goes almost against the wall, but you need an inch or two for the hoses. You need to carefully check the specs and installation instructions for any that you are considering....See Morewall hood depth 24 or 27 inch?
Comments (8)Wolf recommends the 27" if you are doing grilling or other smoky operations. With a 60" grange I would assume you will be getting both a griddle and a grill, so I think I would go with a 27" hood. The design of the Wolf hoods is such that the front does not have any sharp edges, it's just a nice rounded look. We are installing the Wolf Pro Island hood, which is 34" deep. It will be centered over 26" deep cabinets with a 36" Wolf rangetop mounted with a 2" space at the rear. This means the front of the hood will be 4" out from the front face of the cabinets and pretty much in line with the actual front of the rangetop knobs, which stick out past the cabinet fronts quite a bit. It's going to be 32" above the counter, which is way over my wife's head... but not mine :-) I think this will work fine as the bottom of the hood will be in my line of sight. Our local dealer had a rangetop mounted with a 27" wall hood and it seemed fine... I could stand in front and not think I was going to bump my head. That hood was only about 31" above the counter. With a 66" wall hood I hope you are going with a large blower, ideally the 1500 cfm remote would work best. That's what we are using with our island hood. Regarding Wolf hoods being manufactured by Independent... that is true for some hoods. I asked Independent about this and they confirmed. My local salesman did say that Wolf now manufactures their Pro line of hoods though. Don't know if that's true, but they look quite good and the attention to detail is very high, with all welded seams and a very uniform finish. I like the infinite speed adjustment also compared to just 3-speed for Independent. For the island hood the Indpendent and the Wolf were within $100 of each other in price. I went with the Wolf for its ease of mounting in an island configuration and also the much better warranty, local vendor, and much quicker delivery....See MoreCloset depth conundrum
Comments (9)We have bi-fold closet doors in all bedrooms other than MB. 2 BMs are being used as office. The closet is only 26 inches deep, DH leaves his office closet doors open. I hate the bi-fold doors in my office and wish I have deeper closet. The bi-fold door is 15" wide when fold. It means anything placed in the room, within 16" to the closet door has to be moved first to allow clearance to open the door. I would rather increase closet depth and use sliding doors. In my office closet I have Container Store elfa mesh closet 6-drawer units with table tops. I love the units. But they fit very close to closet door track, which I wish there is more room between closet track and units. The tight fit feel suffocating. When the time comes to reconfig elfa system, we will get rid of all the bi-fold closet doors....See More10' Reach-in Closet or Wardrobe like ikea PAX system?
Comments (23)I have had Pax closets for 10years. I don't have doors on them but I have taken than apart and rebuilt them several times as I did things in the closet. I would never use a normal closet versus the Ikea Pax. California Closet is very expensive and less flexible in my opinion. I would use one of the Italian systems from Minotti but those were about half the value of my house:-) My master closet is a galley with two 6foot long sections with 24" deep by 96" tall Pax systems. They hold a ton of stuff. There are similar sized systems in the other bedrooms. I have kids that spend the summers with me and they have never damaged these systems. The drawers pull out easily and I have added some updates like the valet rods and Hafele pull down closet rod. I love the pull out shelves for my shoes. I have a small number of shoes:-) The other update I was looking at is some interior lighting for the units using LED strips. I know you decision is made but there is some misinformation about the PAX system. There are a ton of door options and even inserts from non Ikea sources. At roughly $90 for the box, it really can't be beat for value. There are some size constraints but most closets can support the Pax units. Some Pax fronts that are super cool: SuperFronts From Remodelista Good luck!...See Moreroccouple
