Christmas is a time for friends and families to come together and celebrate the joys of the season. With 2020 having been one of the most challenging years ever known, and lockdown keeping many of us apart from our nearest and dearest for several months, we really hope and deserve to enjoy this year's festivities with an extra loud bang!
Nevertheless, preparing the Christmas meal needn't be a stressful part of the proceedings. In fact, the kitchen is the heart of the home, and with this selection of Quiet Mark certified kitchen appliances, we're able to start those catch-up conversations as we cook and continue them as we clear-up, which is just as well... we've got a lot to catch up on!

The Novy PANORAMA PRO is a powerful 88cm four-zone induction hob with a downdraft extractor integrated within the hob itself. When not in use the ventilation tower is completely concealed and when activated it elevates to reveal an opaque glass extractor. Rising to any height level up to 30cm, the PANORAMA PRO efficiently extracts cooking vapours at source – directly behind the pans. With independent white LED touch-slider controls with 9 power levels and featuring automatic pan detection, the four 200 x 240mm (3700W) induction zones are laid out in a panoramic configuration, thus providing the cook with flexible freedom of movement.
By laterally positioning them side-by-side directly in front of the extractor ensures that aerodynamic flow is continually optimised, resulting in a positive effect on PANORAMA’s noise levels. This intuitive hob has a wealth of features including 2 flexzones with bridge functions for larger pans, automatic cooking, plus a grill function.

Compared to other static freezers, Liebherr’s SmartFrost technology freezes food faster, and reduces ice build-up, making defrosting simpler and quicker. It also provides a more flexible storage area with greater capacity and improved energy consumption for lower running costs.
The extra-high and removable freezer drawers are closed all round so the cold cannot dissipate so quickly when the appliance is opened. All freezers with NoFrost and SmartFrost feature drawers and intermediate glass shelves which can be conveniently removed so that space can be created quickly even for larger frozen food items.
Transparent vegetable bins provide plenty of space for the organised storage of fruit and vegetables. The reversible door hinges permit optimum use of the appliance wherever it is located.
