The kitchen remodel

[markem]

We had a pipe burst in the wall behind the kitchen cabinets a couple of weeks ago. Not overly major, but it looks like enough damage that a remodel is in the works.

The main issue that I'm not sure about is the appliances. Has anyone been through the issue of replacing multiple appliances recently? Looking for recommendations that won't break the bank. The current set is 23 years old, so seems reasonable to bite the bullet now.

I'm seriously considering considering replacing our 30" gas cooktop with a 36" one, either as part of a stove or separate from the oven, as we have now. 30" is big enough for me, but we will want to sell this place at some point and 36" could be a big draw?

Suggestions and ideas appreciated!
