THE HOME SPECIAL
Gadget Essentials
A comprehensive selection of kitchen gadgets by Bosch allows one to manage the household chores in a
convenient and efficient manner.
CHIMNEY HOOD
A chimney hood offers the optimum air volume
for kitchens of all sizes whether you have an openplan
kitchen and living room, or a small, closed-off
kitchen. Air should be exchanged six to 12 times an
hour to ensure a consistently pleasant ambience.
To do so, the air delivery volume or power of the
cooker hood must be appropriate to the room
volume.
The wall-mounted Bosch 8DWB121K50
series box, slim-lined chimney hood gives you
complete freedom in planning your kitchen. At
120cm in width, and an extraction rate of 830
m3/h, it ensures optimal kitchen air quality. The
LED lighting is energy efficient as it perfectly
illuminates the hob. The intensive speed setting
allows for automatic resets to a normal speed
setting after six minutes. The hood is exceptionally
quiet yet high performing at just 49dB. The
chimney hood comes in a classy, brushed steel.
DISHWASHER
The Bosch 8 SMS88TW02E series
freestanding, white dishwasher comes
with brilliant cleaning and drying
results with its ActiveWater technology
with Super 60°C programme and TFT
display. At 60cm, this innovative rinsing
technology maximises efficiency and
ensures environmentally friendly
rinsing for excellent cleaning results.
Water and energy is saved through
targeted water distribution, optimised
filter technology, faster heating and
higher pump performance for increased water circulation.
It rinses efficiently with the highest possible energy efficiency rating of
class A+++. With its SuperSilence feature, it operates at an exceptionally quiet
42dB. The HygienePlus option rinses with a higher temperature for the highest
hygienic performance. The VarioFlex Pro basket system, VarioDrawer Pro and
GlassSecure Tray make this product more flexible and stable. The AquaStop
system consists of a double-walled supply hose, a safety valve, as well as a
floor sump with float switch, offering 100 per cent protection against water
damage. Bosch guarantees it for life. The IntensiveZone option, which can be
added to many programmes, ensures a higher spraying pressure and increases
the temperature in the lower basket. Heavily soiled pots and pans are cleaned
thoroughly whilst more delicate dishes can be placed in the upper basket. A
childproof door lock prevents the door from being opened and the programme
being altered during the cycle. This prevents injuries caused by hot steam and
accidental adjustments to the programme settings. Automatic programmes
allow for a more efficient use of water, water temperature and rinse time, which
are adjusted exactly to suit the level of soiling. This provides best results while
saving water and energy.
INDUCTION HOBS
Induction hobs can save lots of time compared to conventional hobs. An induction hob, for
example, can bring two litres of water to a boil twice as quickly than a ceramic hob, saving time
and energy, allowing you to serve dinner faster, and leaving you more time to enjoy yourself.
The Bosch 8 PXE675DC1E induction hob series with PerfectFry achieves perfect frying results
thanks to an automatic temperature control. It is perfect for browning roasted food as well, with
a five power level sensor control. The 60cm induction hob comes with a DirectSelect Premium
feature that allows for easy selection of a cooking zone, power and additional cooking functions.
The FlexInduction Zone gives more flexibility when combining cooking zones into one big zone
for both small pots and larger cookware. This elegant induction hob, which comes with a bevelled
front and metal strips on the side, is fast, precise, easy to clean and consumes little energy.
