I am: A freestanding upright induction cooker and oven
About me:
If you’re an avid home cook and a Design Hunter™, chances are you’re well acquainted with induction cooktops and pyrolytic ovens.
Well, global forerunner in kitchen appliance design, Smeg, has now combined these two amazing technologies into one appliance.
The Opera A1PYID-6 90cm freestanding upright induction cooker features a 5-zone induction cooktop over a 90-litre (gross) multifunction oven with integrated pyrolytic cleaning function.
The mixing of these technologies delivers the time-saving and energy conservation benefits of induction plus the maintenance-free properties of pyrolysis.
The 5- zone induction cooktop offers the very best in fast, responsive cooking – each cooking zone featuring a boost setting to ensure full heat in just a few seconds – while a power function provides an initial surge of heat for up to ten minutes for heating large quantities of liquids very fast. There’s also a timer to ensure nothing is overcooked or burned.
The Opera’s 90-litre oven is designed for those who love cooking and entertaining. With 10 functions, Thermoseal technology – that ensures a perfectly controlled oven cavity – and truly effortless oven cleaning by virtue of the pyrolytic technology.
Low maintenance is one of the key features of the Opera A1PYID-6. The cooktop requires just a simple wipe-over with a damp cloth and the oven is cleaned – no matter how many grease and food splatters there are – by simply selecting the Pyrolysis function and waiting 90 minutes.
For added convenience, even the quadruple-glazed oven door can be removed for easy cleaning.
The Smeg Opera A1PYID-6 carries the highest Class A European energy rating, features finger-print resistant stainless steel and a handy storage compartment at the base of the oven.
It is available nationally from appliance specialists, electrical retailers and some department stores at $10990.
