Innovation on show rangehoods, ovens and cooktops by Kleenmaid

Designing a new kitchen is an ideal time to visit a showroom to check out the latest appliances. And let's face it technology changes rapidly from year to year.

At Kleenmaid galleries you can view Next Generation appliances in real-life kitchen settings. CEO Danny Hamilton says Kleenmaid works in partnership with kitchen studios, which means you can plan your kitchen in one location.

"With the kitchen designer, cabinet manufacturer and appliances all in the one centre, there is never any problem with appliances not quite fitting into the kitchen, or looking out of place."

Hamilton says Kleenmaid's studio partnerships are especially inspirational, showcasing innovative design, materials and the latest appliance technology.

"We call it the Kleenmaid Experience. People can see the appliances in action, and talk to consultants who are passionate about the products and are equipped with the knowledge and skills to discuss each client's requirements and preferences. Because every household is different, the product range is wide and varied."

The new Kleenmaid Elevator oven is one of the most talked-about innovations on show and was recently a finalist in the Australian International Design Awards presented by Good Design Australia. As the name suggests, the automated Elevator oven shelves rise beyond bench height, which eliminates the need for you to bend down to remove hot dishes.

New designs include the Kleenmaid 45cm series. The appliances in this series can be arranged in a linear format or stacked like cubes (see facing page), which provides a sleek symmetry that complements contemporary kitchen design. Hamilton says every design detail of these appliances sets a new benchmark and helps to establish Kleenmaid's pedigree of engineering excellence.

Kleenmaid has also introduced the Next Generation gas cooktops, which feature electronic touch controls instead of the more traditional knobs.

Hamilton says Kleenmaid has a new website showcasing the appliances, along with kitchens by leading designers and manufacturers.

"The website is a great resource for consumers, a place to research everything they need to know before embarking on a kitchen project."
