Applicances: Aga Saga
From Julie
A couple of years ago, I became obsessed with Aga ranges. We were doing a remodel of our kitchen on Cape Cod, and I fancied a cream-colored enamel Aga to add that English country manor feel. Aga had just come out with a “moderately priced” (under $5,000) gas model for the US market, but being a leisurely minded UK company Aga was in no hurry to indulge my whim (the range was pending approval in MA). After a series of phone calls to the Massachussets Plumbing Board I eventually lost steam and we installed a Wolf. But you can get your Aga 36" Legacy Range, in a range of attractive colors for $5449 at AJ Madison.

As an ex pat of England, of course I wanted an Aga in my kitchen. However, the dream has turned into a nightmare. I went 6 months with a broken thermostat before it was fixed. The big problem for Aga in the USA is that the headquarters for Northern America are in Canada and you have a bunch of people up there who just don't care and have no idea of what to do with an Aga. I've had 4 different companies come out to "try" to fix mine. They always ask me for the manual!! It's actually gotten pretty funny. Have had numerous things go wrong. Again, unless you live in the UK, DO NOT buy this range!!! I am selling mine on Ebay after 6 horrid years and am now buying a Thermador.
