The Stainless Portfolio offers a striking contemporary option. GE’s seemingly endless line of stainless steel appliances is a reflection of America’s growing demand for the sophisticated stainless finish. Bisque proves that the best decision is often a neutral one. Our new bisque color is a blend of vanilla, ecru and buff that’s incredibly warm and inviting. The ultimate in refinement, this delicate hue coordinates beautifully with the natural tones and materials in many of today’s kitchens. Nothing brightens a kitchen quite like white. White continues to reign as the most popular color for appliances. One reason is that its pristine beauty works wonderfully with any décor. Also, this classic color radiates light, brightening up rooms and opening them up, as well. If you want to make a dramatic statement, choose black. Anything but basic, our black is all about drama and effect. Think black-as-midnight, with a little moonlight glow. Instead of fading to black, this sleek color shines. It also provides the perfect backdrop for bright accent pieces. 6 000033667755551155 [[11]]..ppddff 66 55//33//0077 44::0055::3322 PPMM www.geappliances.com Table of Contents Product Page
