WHIRLPOOL’S AMBIENT COLLECTION HITS THE SWEET SPOT FOR RETAILERS

With great design, sleek styling and attractive price points, Whirlpool’s Ambient Line of built-in appliances is proving to be a big hit with retailers.

The Ambient Line integrates advanced technology with supremely simple functionality to guarantee perfect results in the kitchen. The products in the range offer a comprehensive set of traditional and innovative functions and embrace the categories of ovens, microwaves, hoods, hobs, dishwashing, cooling and even a flexible and stylish warming drawer.

Each element of these durable products is made of high quality steel and finished in either black, white or stainless steel. All the components are beautifully aligned for maximum enjoyment and ease of use for the consumer. The advanced, fluid design of the Ambient appliances reflects the current desire for sophistication without clutter and can be seen in the sleek handles, easy-to-read display panels and understated aesthetics.

Whirlpool’s Ambient ovens are among the stars of the range with their smooth aesthetics and multi-function cooking options. Their capacious 67-litre cavities are matched by the flexible Cook3 system with five different shelf positions for creating all types of dishes. Whirlpool’s famed 6th Sense® technology ensures excellent results with convection and/or microwave cooking, baking, grilling, roasting, steaming or crisping.

The simple controls of these ovens are easy to use and sit elegantly within the smooth and geometric design lines. A classic example is the AKZM 756 single built-in oven, which is available in white, black or stainless steel. The oven is ‘A’ rated for energy efficiency and features a variable grill, retractable control knobs and a double glazed full inner glass door.
