In our MI home we have the most wonderful stove I've ever had in 41 years. It is a Jenn Air that has a 5-burner gas cooktop and two electric ovens, all in one unit. The gas burners... One is super fast heating, and one is real low to hold food at warm temp. The ovens... One is like a drawer, which comes up to temp in only a few minutes. We use this most for ourselves. The other (below the drawer) is full size heat and convection with multiple configurations of racks. You can take part of the upper rack out to allow for a turkey below but still fit a casserole on the upper rack. I MOURN the loss of this stove!!! But we don't have gas here.
We have an LG French door fridge with ice maker in the door in MI too. We do not recommend this brand if fridge, nor the LG dishwasher we have.

Here at TV we like our Whirlpool Gold French door fridge and Whirlpool (non Gold) dw a lot.

We bought Sears no-agitator washer and dryer for here. It's different than our front loader washer in MI (also no agitator, 12years old and still going strong--love it) and I think the jury's still out on that. It saves a ton of water, but I,m not convinced it gets the clothes as clean. Have water softener in both houses. Don't know why I think one is better, just my observation. Hope this helps.
