Special Feature Small Appliances Haier introduces its small appliances to Europe IFA focus is on design, innovation, eco-friendliness and home solutions Global manufacturer Haier is introducing its new range of small and medium-sized electrical appliances for the first time in Europe, during the course of 2011. The appliances include kettles, vacuum cleaners, built-in ovens and cooking hobs. “Haier will also be launching a wide range of similar items which will inevitably help to boost its offer on the European market,” René Aubertin, CEO for Haier Europe, said. “Haier is exhibiting its entire current range, as well as its latest innovations, at IFA. On our white goods stand, we are focusing on four main themes that we believe clearly illustrate the brand’s recent developments: design, innovation, eco-friendliness and home solutions. The new products will be rolled out across Haier’s main European markets throughout 2011.” Design is at the heart of all product development within Haier. As open-plan kitchens are becoming increasingly popular in Europe, Haier has developed a range of design-led refrigerators and dishwashers, offering a range of colours and finishes. “Home appliances are not only expected to carry out practical tasks, but to also help towards a more agreeable and comfortable way of life,” Aubertin said. Hall 3.1 Stand 103 Russell Hobs goes for Bauhaus in the kitchen ‘Less is more’ is the design approach for the company’s new food preparation items The allure breakfast set was premiered at last year’s IFA. Its simple elegance and superior design impressed consumers as well as competition judges. Encouraged by this success, Russell Hobbs is extending its award winning range for the 2010 IFA with some high-quality food preparation items including a hand-mixer, hand-blender, jug-blender and a revolutionary new mini-ball-chopper and salt-and-pepper grinder. Allure’s motto is “less is more” in the Bauhaus style, and it is immediately evident in the five new food preparation items. The brushed stainless steel finish and the smooth sleek design make this range a classy eye-catcher in the kitchen. With 12 speed settings, a pulse function as well as an ice-crush function, Russell Hobbs’ powerful 800 watts blender can easily process its 1.5-litre capacity. The fully interlocking safety lid provides more security during usage, as the blender will only work with a fully locked lid. The stainless steel blades are detachable and dishwashersafe, anti-slip feet make the blender more stable and the LC-display rounds off the features.
