Improvement of the kitchen experience is undoubtedly the aim of contemporary appliances, designed with maximum attention to smart functioning and technology that also reduces waste. All this goes together with an accent on silent operation, especially for open plan areas devoted not only to cooking but also to entertaining.

The iQ700 premium range studioLine ovens (on cover) by Siemens have a futuristic image. Finished in black glass and designed to be invisible, the new handle contributes – together with the black steel finish – to make these appliances true gems in the home. Thanks to the fullSteam Plus function, it is possible to prepare foods in a healthier, more sustainable way.
