New Year, New Kitchen

You did it. You survived the holidays. From Halloween to New Year’s, the parade of parties, festivities, visiting relatives and over-the-top meals is over. You have time to focus on other things again.

Forget spring cleaning. Use the first few weeks of the new year to clean, donate and re-assess so your household runs smoothly in 2018.

So what project will you tackle first?

If you learned anything from the holidays, it’s that your kitchen isn’t perfect. There are no major problems, but little things crept up as you put your kitchen through its paces.

First, your dishwasher. To your frustration, there are always dishes which aren’t fully clean after the cycle ends. You end up scraping off leftover food and washing dishes in the sink. Also, certain cups and bowls capture water that doesn’t dry off. You flip it over and — ugh! — there’s water all over your hand. Simply unacceptable.

Then your microwave doesn’t have as much stamina. Melting butter for baking takes longer. Reheated leftovers are lukewarm, or food has hot spots and isn’t heated through evenly.

These little inconveniences add up. Instead of putting up with these problems, it may be time for an upgrade. There’s good news, though. When you bundle eligible LG kitchen major appliances purchases, you can receive up to $500.

Better appliances and you save money? Win-win.
