To me, nothing says cozy kitchen like an English country kitchen, complete with an AGA. While I loved my Wolf cooktop and wall ovens, there's just something about an AGA that has me smitten.
Aren't they great? AGAs were invented in 1929 and originally were heated using slow-burning coal and were on all day, providing heat to the entire kitchen on cold winter days. Nowadays they are programmable and run on natural gas or electricity. They're certainly not cheap but they are a true workhorse in the kitchen. I love the idea of their multiple ovens, warming plate and wide range of colours.
If you're looking for something with a little more warmth and personality than an industrial stainless steel range, I think investing in an AGA is worth every penny. What do you think?

I LOVE Agas and have always coveted them.
But my heart almost stopped beating when I saw the PINK one! Amazing!
I've never used one but now would love to try it. That very light blue in the modern white kitchen made my heart go pitter patter.
My grandmother always had one in her UK home. It was not only for cooking but to keep the kitchen warm (England didn;t always have central heating). It was our favorite spot. The dog and cat used to sleep in front of it.
There gorgeous....it would be hard to pick the colors are so fun! Love all the shots with the lazy pups! Have a wonderful Monday!
PS I saw the new Mission Impossible movie parts were in Dubai...have you seen it? Do they really have sand storms like that? Wild to say the least!
I'm sure they cost a pretty penny, but they're beautiful!! Love the character they add to the kitchen.
am from singapore. my kitchen is as big as e aga itself.. ,p love love e powder blue aga in white kitchen.
They're great to look at but I think I'd feel super intimidated by all the bells and whistles it has going on! Like I'd have to be roasting a goose while baking a souffle and boiling 10 lobsters all on a regular Tuesday night ;) Like I'd have to seriously up my game ya know? ;)
They are an absolute work of art...fabulous pink!!
Dreamy...amazing!
