Is this the most ridiculous splurge ever on The Block?

<p>This week, <em style="font-weight: inherit;">The Block</em> contestants unveiled their kitchens to the judges and there was one team who broke several impressive records. </p> <p>South Australian couple Kerrie and Spence, who were the first team this season to score a perfect score of 30 for their kitchen, not only had the biggest kitchen ever but also the most expensive.</p> <p>In their safe was several vouchers from Sub-Zero and Gaggenau appliances that allowed the couple to spare no expense when choosing their appliances.</p> <p>The couple won over the judges with the Sub-Zero fridge-freezer and wine rack they chose that totalled $46,000.</p> <p>The fridge, which is worth $26,995, has an air purification system based on NASA technology and has the interior air refreshed every 20 minutes to preserve food for longer and reduce food waste.</p> <p>The $18,995 wine rack holds 147 bottles and not only acts as a cooler but as a guardian against heat, humidity, vibration and light.</p> <p>The dual-evaporators maintain the appropriate level of humidity to ensure the corks don’t dry out and it has two independent preservation zones for red and white wine.</p> <p style="text-align: center;"><img style="width: 500px; height: 278.5862785862786px;" src="https://oversixtydev.blob.core.windows.net/media/7820836/kerrieandspence2.jpg" alt="" data-udi="umb://media/77a9aee68a7f442db5c637384f90bf5e" /></p> <p>The judges found it difficult to fault the luxurious kitchen with Darren Palmer praising how the couple had put all the elements together.</p> <p>“If this was my home I would be pretty damn happy with my kitchen,” he said.</p> <p>“Execution throughout the kitchen is superb and the lighting is perfect too.”</p> <p>Complimenting the way the island bench had been styled with fresh ingredients, Shaynna said: “They look spectacular.”</p> <p>“It’s a bit hard to fault anything,” she said.</p> <p>Neale Whitaker described their kitchen as heaven for anyone who loves to cook and entertain.</p> <p>Placing behind Kerrie and Spence on the scoreboard was Hayden and Sara on 28.5 points.</p> <p>Norm and Jess and Bianca and Carla tied on 26.5 points, while Courtney and Hans placed at the bottom of the scoreboard on 24 points.</p> <p>Scroll through the gallery above to see the team’s kitchen reveals.</p> <p>Which kitchen do you rate the most?
