Sounds like she had a good run. We have a counter top one and probably always will-possibly due to the fact that dd and I have a tendency to set them on fire (I put a bagel in for 6 minutes instead of 60 seconds and dd made easy mac without the water)-it’s easier to toss out a counter one than one that’s attached to a range.
range tops are nice because then you don’t have to use counter space for them…..
We have our first over the stove model and I love it, resisted it for awhile before agreeing when we redid the cabinets. Counter top would cost you less, but take up space. Hmmm, guess I wasn’t much help! How much other work is needing to be done in the kitchen? Would you have chosen a range top if you were staying? You have used your kitchen bunches, so I would go with your gut since you have the best idea of where it would work.
Over the range- over the range- over the range- more counter space that way- what do you really store over the stove anyways???
Over the range.
My answer will probably not fit in because I would go with counter top because of my height. I’m short and the ones over the stove are too high. Keep un informed. Nanny
Range top for sure!
Over the range definitely. We can always use more counter space. Don’t go pay full price though. I just got my microwave convection oven (over the range model) for $100. on craigslist.com. Check there. Especially since you’re selling the house! I saved about $400. Woo hoo!
