When my mother died, we pulled out the stand-alone appliances in her
40 year old house. Her refrigerator and stove were the old Heirloom
Gold gawdawful stuff from the late 60s and, although both worked
reasonably well, were butt ugly. They were worn, dated and the stove
had grease in places that you couldn't have gotten off with a
flamethrower. We pulled them out, replaced the vinyl flooring, and
left bare the spaces where the refrigerator and stove had been. It
made the kitchen look *much* bigger.
