Bluestar makes a great range with over 750 color options. Doesn't look cheapo and cooks like a dream! 30" Platinum Series Range | Freestanding Range

If you are ok with white with stainless handles, check out this one in White Ice.

Whirlpool | Appliances for the Home, Kitchen, and Laundry Room[WFG715H0ES]-1022749/WFG715H0ES/

I don't think the link takes you right there, you may have to google the model number WFG715H0ES

I have it in stainless and think it looks very nice and the grates were one of the things I particularly liked.

Thanks emm74, I'm going to try to see if I can find them on display somewhere (I wonder what the difference is between white and white ice?)

White Ice and Black Ice are a Whirlpool thing, basically a more upscale version of black and white for people who wanted something besides stainless. They have the stainless handles, and I think knobs, etc. but not all stainless. I considered getting all white ice (new construction so I was buying every thing at one time) and I looked in person and thought they were very attractive, but ultimately went with stainless because I ended up mixing and matching brands and it was easier to do with stainless.

I will say that I had a pretty tough time finding white ice on display anywhere, so I would look to see if you can find anything in that color choice (I found a fridge at Lowes I think) and not worry about it being that particular range. Then you can look for the specific model range, which most likely a store would display in stainless, but you'd be able to envision what the white ice would look like.

God for bid you put white in your kitchen these days. I'm doing this & I swear my builder is retarded. He can get 100 things right; but when I try to tell him about things that are important to me he goes full retard. I guess bc it's not things that are important to the sheeple, the trendy, trend, trends??

I don't want a microwave, speaking of trends. So what does he do, after ignoring my several requests to speak to the cabinet guy, he puts in the type of cabinet that goes only w/ a microwave.

I also deleted the dishwasher. I swear it's as if I was talking like I had tourettes or something. What do you mean you don't want a dishwasher or a microwve...? OMG, omg.. omg...

The architect was the same way. Is there a microwave/ dishwasher cult I'm not aware of?

It's the same cult that uses cell phones, drives cars with electrical components, and dries clothes in a dryer.

I've never understood the microwave thing in a home kitchen, although I think they're extremely useful in an office environment. I did grow up with one -- my parents were the original early adopters, and we had every electronic gadget you can imagine -- but I've never had a microwave in any of the homes I've owned as an adult. It absolutely stymies my family & friends, who cannot imagine how I prepare meals without one. Very easily, as it so happens.

Regarding the dishwasher, I would be loathe to do without it. I'd sooner give up my clothes dryer.
