Increasing Rent after kitchen upgrades?

I have a townhouse for rent. It was built in 1989. It has new carpets for the 2 bedrooms and new laminated hardwood floor for the living and dining room areas. The kitchen is pretty much outdated. If I replace the updright microwave, oven, and refrigerator to the stainless ones,

 would I be able to increase the rent from $1,900 a month to $ 2,100? Should I upgrade to a granite countertop too? Please advise.
