5 Benefits of built-in kitchen appliances


*Built-in is beautiful

Let's" face it, built-in simply looks better. They are designed to blend seamlessly with modular kitchens without being overpowering. Unlike a free-stand cooker, for example, it causes a truncation to what would otherwise be the continuous flow of the cabinet design & worktop.

*Space Saving

The worldwide trend of urbanization resulted in a smaller space available per person; space utilization has become a significant issue. Built-in appliances are clever in maximizing countertop & floor space in any kitchen.


Take, for example, a microwave oven. A free-standing microwave plonked on the countertop occupies useful (and expensive) space that could have been used for food preparation.


On the other hand, a built-in microwave tucks neatly into your kitchen cabinet, revealing only the door and control panel, which are the only interface you need. True, a free-stand microwave costs less to buy, but its countertop space is worth far more.

*Latest Tech

The free-stand kitchen appliance is a sunset industry for manufacturers, so, in recent years, the lion's share of investment into research & development has been allocated to built-in products.


Therefore, one can expect to find the latest electronic technology, materials, manufacturing techniques & most importantly, safety & energy saving standards featured in built-in products. Built-in appliances are, therefore, your best insurance against obsolescence.


*Ergonomic

Bending over to check on the turkey roast? With built-in, your oven can be installed at any level of your preference for convenience and safety (little tots are endlessly curious & impatient when something is baking). The oven may not necessarily be located under the cooktop but in any cabinet you like.

*Flexibility

Mix and match galore! With built-in appliances, you are no longer confined to a particular oven with the cooktop. You may have a different cooktop or a different combination of cooktops and match it with your preferred range. Depending on your cooking habits, it could be a high-end model or a budget one. When it is time for replacement, it can be done piecemeal, but the entire set needs to be replaced in a free-stand cooker.


Best Options Money Can Buy

Built-in appliances are mainly designed for luxury and high-end kitchens and discerning homeowners. They offer clean lines and luxury styles you can't reach with more affordable, stand-alone designs.
