- it's almost as though we should ignore original intent because they created a living document that can change with the times. - mafic Apr 9, 18:14
- And if other laws hadn't been introduced superseding those stipulations, they'd still be the law in Arizona. -- nm - Mop🧹 Apr 9, 16:21

- Kitchen reno in England? Those stoves are expensive and this one went with the previous decor. -- nm - . Apr 9, 18:05
- I don’t think that’s a tv above the oven. You wouldn’t have lights like that on the wall either side of a tv. They would cause a glare on the screen. - Loyola Apr 9, 14:06 2
  - the lights and the screen don't have to be on at the same time. different uses. the frame is just to make it look fancy and not like a wall mounted - Andie Apr 9, 14:08 1
    - It could be a mirror to give the effect of making the kitchen appear bigger that it is, and accentuate the elongated nature of the room. -- nm - Loyola Apr 9, 14:14
- Some sort of freaky griddle-range with a fireplace above it for some reason -- nm - Beryllium Apr 9, 13:29 2
  - Yes I think it could be this. -- nm - Loyola Apr 9, 14:06
  - Oh yeah a gas decorative fireplace. I was kind of thinking maybe a rotisserie oven but no handle. -- nm - sycor Apr 9, 13:32
- Giant computer screen/tv. -- nm - Andie Apr 9, 13:28 3
  - Hmm, widescreen monitor would fit the proportions maybe. Good thought. -- nm - David Apr 9, 13:32 2
    - Some people use TVs to cook along with cooking shows on TV and streaming (and also just to watch stuff while they cook) -- nm - Roger More Apr 9, 13:37
    - Whatever it is, there's a reflection of a building on the screen. So, there must a window across from the reflection. -- nm - Inigo Apr 9, 13:36
- Very odd. It looks like a second kitchen in a house's basement made for some weird unknown requirements. -- nm - Inigo Apr 9, 13:26
- Related, I'm surprised that the announcement of a Zillow Gone Wild TV show hosted by Jack McBrayer has not been reported on ST. -- (link) - Roger More Apr 9, 13:19
- 2 ovens (the closer one has 2 sections. My cousin has one, it's neat). 0 microwaves. Maybe a hidden dishwasher? -- nm - sycor Apr 9, 13:15 5
  - Then how does the top oven open? -- nm - David Apr 9, 13:17 4
    - Maybe it's only an oven. And the stove only on top of the yellow oven. So, 2 ovens, one on the right is a double oven? -- nm - sycor Apr 9, 13:20 3
      - I honestly don't know. The ST conversation has played out the same way the debate did in my head, straight down to the side dishwasher/oven handle. -- nm - David Apr 9, 13:21 2
        
        Dishwasher seems too small since there is something above and below it. It would definitely only be a 1 level dishwas - sycor Apr 9, 13:24 1
        
        Dishwasher appears to be left of the sink based on the handle placement for that cabinet. So maybe a hidden dishwasher. -- nm - sycor Apr 9, 13:28
- What is that yellow oven/stove? and that biggest microwave Ive ever seen above it -- nm - Jovian Apr 9, 13:13 12
  - kind of looks like an Aga, but I think it's a knockoff. -- nm - mafic Apr 9, 18:23
  - replicator -- nm - Spawn Apr 9, 13:15
  - You get it. -- nm - David Apr 9, 13:14
  - I think that might be a TV - not a microwave. -- nm - Turd Ferguson Apr 9, 13:13 8
    - You might be right and that's a first for me. - Jovian Apr 9, 13:15 7
      - I think a TV over the oven is dumb - ya know, heat and all...but I don't know what else it could be. -- nm - Turd Ferguson Apr 9, 13:15 6
        
        right. lol. exactly, its the worst place I could ever think of placing a TV -- nm - Jovian Apr 9, 13:16 5
        
        And there are lights on either side of it, which you wouldn't (or at least shouldn't) do with an HDTV. -- nm - David Apr 9, 13:17 4
        
        its bizarre is what it is. Now I dont think its a tv. Because honestly? after just ONE week of cooking on that stove?? - Jovian Apr 9, 13:20 3
        
        It definitely appears to be a gas stove and possibly a griddle top combo. -- nm - sycor Apr 9, 13:26
        
        Even so, the heat from the oven would warp the TV, which is why people shouldn't put TVs over fireplaces. - David Apr 9, 13:23 1
        
        Silver thing and glass could be a heat shield. But seems excessive. -- nm - sycor Apr 9, 13:25
- That is what we call a kitchen. Meals are prepared here. -- nm - Turd Ferguson Apr 9, 13:10 14
  - How many ovens do you see in this picture? And how many microwaves? -- nm - David Apr 9, 13:11 13
    - The yellow thing is a very fancy/high-end oven. Lots of people don't have a microwave - decline Apr 9, 13:12 9
      - So, what's the thing above the yellow oven? -- nm - David Apr 9, 13:13 5
        
        appears to be a tv - how else can you watch YT cooking videos while making your gourmet meals? -- nm - decline Apr 9, 13:14
        
        I think it has to be a screen of some type. There's no way to open it, if it is a microwave. -- nm - Turd Ferguson Apr 9, 13:14 3
        
        It's flat to the wall - TV -- nm - rollo Apr 9, 13:15
        
        The dimensions aren't right for a tv. It's too wide. -- nm - David Apr 9, 13:15 1
        
        you should have pmb's wife go check the place out and get all the details for you -- nm - decline Apr 9, 13:16
      - The microwave is what the big handle it for on the cabinets on the right -- nm - Turd Ferguson Apr 9, 13:13 2
        
        I thought that was a double oven. Or maybe not. -- (link) - sycor Apr 9, 13:19
        
        I think that's a second oven -- nm - Krusty Apr 9, 13:18
    - I see one of each...although the yellow thing might be a double oven. -- nm - Turd Ferguson Apr 9, 13:12
    - I might suggest it's a kosher kitchen but you'd need two sinks and two dishwashers too. right? (right?) -- nm - 🏳️‍🌈 mandy chem 🏳️‍🌈 Apr 9, 13:12 1
      - Yes, you'd need two of everything that touches food. -- nm - Krusty Apr 9, 13:14
- I call upon the wisdom of ST Part II... - David Apr 9, 13:07 [Image] 9
  - I mean why wouldn't you put the thing designed to generate heat next to the things that need to be kept cold. -- nm - mafic Apr 9, 18:24
  - I recognize the rack. That's pretty much my business, day-in, day-out. Why's it in a laundry room? -- nm - Mop🧹 Apr 9, 13:21 2
    - No where else to put it? My builder to my "smart" cubby in the laundry room. Basically where the cable comes in for the fiber line and the connection - sycor Apr 9, 13:33
    - Because a dryer isn't hot enough on its own? -- nm - David Apr 9, 13:31
  - that a laundry/server mainframe/AC/router room? -- nm - Jovian Apr 9, 13:11 2
    - Yeah a lot going on. Washer, maybe dryer, server, HVAC maybe. Counter over washer for folding. Looks like maybe some kind of pullout or track - sycor Apr 9, 13:22
    - Yes? On the floorplan, they call this room "Room." -- nm - David Apr 9, 13:14
  - what kind of maniac keeps their Pellegrino about their washing machine? -- nm - decline Apr 9, 13:09 1
