5 essential home appliances, gift ideas and more for real professionals!

Do you need to furnish your new home, or are you thinking of making - or giving - a gift?

This is an article for dreaming, but not too much, because in our catalogue you have everything at your fingertips. If you don't know where to start or are looking for some inspiration, you've come to the right place! Sit back and be inspired, we are here to offer you the perfect combination of convenience, quality and innovation.

Here are the must-haves: 5 essential home appliances that cannot be missing in your home.

Refrigerator

We all agree, right? When we were kids a refrigerator was just a refrigerator, but today it can be something more. A refrigerator like this LG side-by-side may not have been seen yet: it offers a beautiful glass window that shows you what's inside with just a touch, without any loss of temperature.

From water and ice dispensers to ultratechnological screens that allow you to watch your favourite apps, listen to music while cooking or waiting for your guests, this little gem can really make your environment a functional and pleasant place.

If, on the other hand, you are looking for a more practical and less bulky solution, fear not, there is something for everyone: free-standing fridges, built-in or undermount, not to mention the finishes. Do white and steel bore you? Know that there are some really interesting proposals, such as this beautiful Severin.

For classicists, our catalogue offers a wide range of proposals. You can choose the direction of the hinges, the type of opening, the energy class, the price range and much more! A piece of advice? Choose No Frost, life is complicated enough as it is.

Pss! I almost forgot: freezers. Do you have some unused space and like to organise your supplies, perhaps in anticipation of an impending apocalypse? Here you will find some great vertical or chest freezers.

Cooker hob

In addition to the classic gas hobs, induction hobs and electric hobs are becoming increasingly popular. Induction hobs in particular offer a not inconsiderable package of benefits:

• Energy efficiency
• Speed of cooking
• Uniform cooking
• Precise temperature regulation
• Easy cleaning
• Safety

Along with the advantages, however, it is necessary to keep a few caveats in mind: induction hobs need specific anti-condensation hoods and cookware made of ferromagnetic materials - such as stainless steel, iron or cast iron. So if you already have a cooker hood and a set of pots and pans, don't feel sorry for yourself, gas hobs have continued to dominate our kitchens for over a century and today you can find truly elegant and, above all, economical solutions.

Oven

If you are a lover of good food and you are good with cookers, or if you are not a lover of cookers at all and you are not good in the kitchen, consider carefully buying your next oven: it could provide you with the cooking tips you need! But how many types of ovens are there?

• Electric oven. Undoubtedly the kings of the industry, they compete for the most functions, meet multiple cooking needs and can offer you modern aesthetics and technological support that can make all the difference in your kitchen - and finally in your dishes!
• Steam oven. A highly professional and sophisticated solution, it is an excellent investment if you prefer healthy and light meals.
• Combi steam oven. Don't know how to choose and don't want to give anything up? You're not the only one, that's why combi steam ovens combine traditional cooking with steaming for a spectacular and tasty result.
• Gas oven. Less intuitive or multi-tasking, they nevertheless offer a big advantage: energy savings.
• Wood-fired oven. And for future Master Chefs there is he, the wood-fired oven, invaluable if bread, pizza and levitates are part of your daily worship. Demanding in terms of space and maintenance, it is after all an increasingly accessible and delicious choice.

Remember to also consider the cleaning method if you want to optimise your time. Here are the most popular functions on the market:

• Pyrolysis. The oven raises the temperature (usually 500 °C) for a set time until the food residue is burnt, so that it can be easily removed.
• Hydrolytic. Steam softens the residue for ultra-easy removal.
• Catalytic. The catalytic walls of the inner compartment prevent residues from adhering, turning them into substances that are easy to remove even at relatively low temperatures.

Microwave oven

Not indispensable but highly desirable is the countertop or built-in microwave oven. Practical, fast and economical, it definitively takes on the title of 'lifesaver' on many occasions, from that forgotten meal in the freezer to that yawning dinner that drains us of all culinary intentions. Be aware that some combi ovens like to exaggerate: they combine both a steam function and a microwave function.

Freestanding cookers

If you have special space requirements, another attractive alternative are freestanding cookers with integrated hob and oven, which are excellent if you choose a two-in-one solution.

Dishwasher

Did you know that doing the dishwasher generally consumes less energy than washing dishes by hand? Exactly! Most of the latest generation of dishwashers are designed to optimise time and consumption, both in terms of water and electricity.

Again, if you are looking for excellence, you can find dream models in our catalogue that allow you to open your dishwasher with a touch, control it vocally or even remotely. From the most classic to the most sophisticated with automatic door opening, customise your search with the most important filters we have selected especially for you. Pay particular attention to the size of the built-in and the number of covers; for example, 6 covers are perfect for two people, 14 or even 16 are almost mandatory if you are a large family.

Washing machine

Washing machines also benefit from the technological revolution of recent years. At affordable prices you get all the more traditional functions, plus others that might tickle your fancy, such as special programmes for sportswear, ultra-fast programmes or specific programmes for shirts, sheets, jeans and jackets. In our catalogue you can also find slim washing machines that are only 45 cm deep or even 40 cm deep washing machines with top loading. Even small space will no longer be a problem.

5 small appliances for the whole family

No longer know what to give as a gift? Would you like a touch of novelty in your home, or to treat yourself to a pampering?

Here are 5 always useful small appliances from the Never Again Without line:

• Coffee machine. Although investing in a coffee machine may initially seem expensive, in the long run it can help you save time and money. And above all: no more ordinary coffee! Enjoy your cup just like at the café, and even better: turn your good morning or break into a real wellness ritual.
• Fryer. If the first things that come to mind are the smell of fried food and fat, recalculate. Discover air fryers, a multifunctional, healthy and stimulating solution. If, on the other hand, you have a space suitable for the classic fryer and believe that frying is an art, discover our selection of professional fryers!
• Toasters. You will always have crispy bread available in no time for your breakfasts, aperitifs with friends or your children's snacks!
• Blender. Perhaps this was among the must-haves. If one immersion blender isn't enough for you, you can get a whole multi-purpose kit: blender, whisk, chopper and vegetable masher in one package!
• Juicer. Always useful, always appreciated. Start the day with a full load of vitamins!

Of course this is not the end of the story, the list of home appliances that can make your life easier and more affordable is countless. Our catalogue satisfies multiple needs, which is why we have decided to leave you with an additional treat.
