What’s Cookin’?

❝ For the price, we were very disappointed in the features/finishes. I can rent somewhere for less money and have better countertops, floors, appliances, etc. ❞—Reston, Va.❝ The current appliances are the main reason I won’t be choosing this community again. There are many other options in [the area] that are new and/or have updated appliances. I’m willing to pay a few extra dollars a month to have better appliances. ❞

❝ It would be nice if everybody would get stainless steel
appliances since they replace them in the remodeled
apartments. I just moved here about two months ago,
but I still have old appliances. ❞

❝ I wish there was more cabinet space in our kitchen and more places to store things. ❞

—Austin, Texas

❝ The newly upgraded appliances are nice, but the upgraded cabinets still look cheap. The price for the apartment was too high for the quality of the upgrades. ❞

❝ I love that we have a deep sink! Shallow sinks mean water is everywhere when you wash up. ❞

—Broomfield, Colo.

❝ I would prefer to have darker colored storage cabinets as white cabinets require very frequent cleaning. ❞

❝ This maintenance team is great. I had a dishwasher replaced, and they even put my dishes back! They are truly a professional team. ❞
