Furthermore, the haptic pattern of Twist Touch® aligns with the character of our product family, resembling the familiar Twist Pad® found in higher value classes.Flex Design and Flex Control are part of the new NEFF Collection – a series of ovens, hoods, hobs and coffee makers – that invites owners to interact with the design and user experience.

The Collection has four go-to finishes to choose from: Brushed Bronze, Anthracite Grey, Deep Black and Metallic Silver.

Miele induction hobs Design Award

Posted on by

Miele induction hobs received two important design awards: the iF Design Award and the RedDot Design Award. Two hobs with an integrated extractor (TwoInOne) and a full-surface induction hob were each double winners.both powerful and quiet in operation. Their reduced design is characterised by the central air intake with a grille set in the ceramic glass screen. This feature, in particular, convinced the jury of the Red Dot Award and allows pots and pans to slide freely. The grille on the rectangular air intake blends in seamlessly with the design of the hob. Depending on the model, the grille is either completely black (KMDA 7272 Silence) or has discreet brushed stainless-steel slats (KMDA 7473 Silence).

A further recipient of the iF and the Red Dot design prize was the KM 7897-1 FL Diamond full-surface induction hob. As many as 6 pots, pans and oven dishes can be placed anywhere on the 90 cm wide hob unit and move around freely. This guarantees untold freedom during cooking. Moreover, the ceramic screen on the hob unit features a special coating: DiamondFinish is one of the hardest surfaces on the market and hence particularly scratch-resistant

BORA New products

Posted on by

BORA unveiled a series of products during their Product Launch Event

The BORA Pure M with its signature vertical slider made its appearance. Alongside, lighting solutions were introduced, notably the linear pendant light – BORA Horizon, and the vertical pendant light – BORA Stars.
BORA ventured into presenting an extendable vacuum-sealing system for kitchen countertops,
The main highlight in my opinion, however, was the introduction of three freezer solutions. According to BORA, these freezers are designed with intelligent circulating air cooling to ensure optimal temperature stability. An added feature is the integrated odor filter, aimed at reducing unpleasant fridge odors.

BORA branching out into peripheral products like for instance lighting and vacuum-sealing solutions. At first glance, this might seem a departure from their original product – cooktops with integrated exhaust systems. The addition of freezer solutions now rounds off their offerings in the large kitchen appliances segment. It’s going to be fascinating to watch how this once-specialized provider positions itself brand-wise for the future. The coming months will surely demand some additional communication to clearly convey their brand positioning to the market.

“Technological innovation is at the heart of every model within AEG EcoLine with functions designed to make life of consumers more enjoyable while making it easy to take more sustainable choices. Resource efficiency and performance without compromise is what consumers want and it’s what AEG EcoLine delivers,” says Chris Braam, CEO Europe Electrolux Group.

“We chose IFA 2023 to present the AEG EcoLine selection to an international audience because of its important role in highlighting innovation. AEG EcoLine is a significant step forward in making resource-efficient models stand out when people are looking for an appliance in-store or online, and we are very much looking forward to showcasing it to our trade partners and consumers in Berlin,” adds Braam.

Better than the best A rating
The new AEG EcoLine selection covers all the main product categories ensuring it meets the appliances needs of the entire home.

Within laundry, AEG EcoLine will be showing washers which have an energy rating better than the best A rating on the market and with resource saving features such as AutoDose, which saves detergent, and UltraWash which cleans efficiently at 30ºC and saves 30% energy [2].

AEG EcoLine ovens retain minerals and vitamins while using up to 20% less energy when cooking with steam [4], and a steam cleaning function saves up to 95% energy versus pyro cleaning [5].
