Cafe Matte White Wine Fridge

Hi everyone, we just ordered Matte White Appliances with Brushed Bronze hardware. I’m not willing to spend $2400 on a matching wine fridge. Anyone have any suggestions on something else that matches?
thank you so much

GE Cafe matte white or black fridge next to stainless steel wall oven
Comments (12)We ended up delaying our project, but plan to get two individual wall units (oven and microwave) in matte white and stack them. It's quite a bit more pricey, but it also seems the individual units have better features than the combo. We're also beginning to lean more towards cabinets that have a little color, maybe green or blue. Cabinets that aren't white/grey will probably enhance the look of the matte white finish (we got the Fridge and Dishwasher in matte white already)....See MoreHi All. anyone using white matte appliances?
Comments (17)@Aussie Bae we purchased the GE Cafe Matte White appliances. Our kitchen cabinets will be installed in the next few weeks, so I can show you how they look then. The appliances are gorgeous. I was drooling over that gas range in person, but ultimately we choose the Cafe induction cooktop and the double oven. There are definitely posts on here about the matching cabinet pulls to the appliance hardware and matching the cabinet white paint color to the appliances. Our perimeter cabinets will be white and I choose to have them pained by my cabinet maker in a cooler white called Wedding Veil by Benjamin Moore. I think where people get into trouble with the white appliances is when they have creamy or warmer white kitchen cabinets and that is why they don't like the look. I actually brought a piece of my vent hood to Benjamin Moore and attempted to have them color match it. The GE Cafe Matte White tends to lean a little blue and the color that it "matched" with was actually a blue white (I can't remember the name unfortunately)....See MoreCafe White Range Alternative?
Comments (12)I am in Canada but have the same supply issue here... had a client in December was able to get a fridge, stove and microwave hood in 2 weeks after being quoted months at another store. Depending on your location you can use the gecafe website "find a store" tool https://cafeappliances.com/find-a-store/ They've done a great job at selling these appliances and now with the pandemic and all the renos there is a shortage...up here they are carried at many furniture stores and also homedepot/lowes etc....See MoreCafe range in matte black with stainless hood?
Comments (8)With induction you may need to upgrade your electrical, so that would be one mark against it (similar to a dual fuel range). But for ease of cleaning it wins by a long shot. I have never heard that induction doesn't get hot enough. My personal experience extends to an induction hob, which I used to make rice and boil water for noodles. It seemed totally fine for those tasks. My friend just finished her kitchen and put in a GE Cafe double oven induction range - she says she can't get over how quickly water boils and how responsive it is. I suggested induction to her - she didn't know about it, and they were going to run a gas line and I suggested induction instead. Her DH told me over the weekend that he's SO GLAD they didn't do that. so regarding pot temperature - I would think that would have more to do with the type of pan you're using than the range itself, as the induction coils are just exciting the pan material; the stove itself doesn't get hot. The only thing that doesn't function that well on induction is a wok, or other cooking that requires an open flame (smores, roasting peppers). Pretty short list....See More

3 years agoI had a hard time splurging on the wine fridge but I have zero regrets. It's beautiful and works well. I've had it a month and it's made absolutely no noise. That seemed to be a common complaint about other beverage fridges when I was researching before this came out.
Plus you can have the light on all the time or by motion sensor which is pretty cool.
I got mine on sale for $2100 on wayfair. Plus it upped my rebate from $500 (for 4 appliances) to $1000 (for 5).
