You can’t have a functioning kitchen without them, but homeowners have come to expect more from their appliances. Almost nine in 10 (88%) of renovators replace some or all of their kitchen appliances, according to the “2019 U.S. Houzz Kitchen Trends Survey.” That includes the 54% who opt to replace all their appliances and the 34% who replace only some. Those in the 55+ age group are far more likely to replace all the appliances in their kitchen, at 62%.
Here’s how those upgrades break down by appliance type:
Refrigerator/freezer: 93%
Dishwashers: 93%
Microwave: 83%
Range: 72%
Range hoods: 65%
Cooktops: 49%
Wall ovens: 36%
Integration promises to be the appliance buzzword of the year.
