Not only does the new Whirlpool Fusion induction oven offer a stunning new time saving option, which can halve your cooking time and reduce your energy bills by way of its revolutionary induction shelf, it now has a striking new streamlined design that will enhance the look of any kitchen.
Whirlpool, the world’s largest appliance manufacturer, is committed to delivering products that provide the user with excellent results with minimum effort, and the stylish new induction oven is at the forefront of cooking technology for faster cooking times and greater energy efficiency, saving up to 50 per cent in time and energy¹.
What is genuinely revolutionary about the Whirlpool AKZM 8920/GK oven is the removable induction shelf, which generates a magnetic field that directly heats the special induction tray for extremely efficient, speedy and precise cooking.
With guaranteed high cooking performance, together with a very fast cooking process and low energy consumption, the induction function is simple and easy to use. By simply selecting the food category, the 6th Sense® technology will calculate the required cooking time for fast, perfect results using the minimum amount of energy and time. Working in conjunction with the grill to brown the food from above, the induction oven cooks a large variety of dishes including pasta bakes, pizza, roast chicken and biscuits.
Part of the Fusion design range, with iXelium™ coated stainless steel to ensure long-lasting brilliance, the Whirlpool induction oven has now been redesigned to offer a streamlined look with an LED touchscreen display and a sleek integrated handle.
With a contemporary minimal design ideal for complementing a wide range of kitchen designs, the new Whirlpool induction oven is as beautiful as it is functional and easy to use. And what’s more, the iXelium™ coated stainless steel is resistant to scratching and discolouration, which ensures the oven will retain its stunning appearance for even longer.
The Whirlpool induction oven is feature-rich and similarly impressive in traditional cooking mode. Incorporating Cook3 technology, which ensures no aroma mixing between dishes, and the Ready2Cook function which completely eliminates the need for pre-heating; the new Whirlpool induction oven also benefits from innovative 6th Sense® technology that continually monitors the cooking process to ensure perfect results every time.
Jennifer Spragg, Senior Brand Manager, Whirlpool, says: “To have this cutting-edge technology in an oven, which is also a high quality multifunction oven in its own right, is testament to Whirlpool’s dedication to creating innovative appliances that make life easier for the consumer. A revolution in cooking technology, the new Whirlpool induction oven is fast, intuitive, and easy to use, as well as looking great in the kitchen and making the whole cooking experience a breeze.”
