Flex Control: The Revolutionary Way of Flexible Display Control

Flex Control® is one of the cornerstones of a unique, holistic kitchen concept from NEFF, which is dedicated to flexibility. With Flex Control®, consumers can control their oven and coffee machine according to their individual preferences: by touch or Twist Pad Flex® rotary knob. The high-resolution surface of the display reacts to the selection in real-time and completely automatically. The ovens even offer space for two Twist Pad Flex®, one on each side. The intuitive magnetic control element can be easily removed from one appliance and docked onto another, combining the control of the induction hob, oven, and coffee machine in an innovative approach to rethinking the kitchen as a space. For ultimate flexibility and control.

Siemens new iQ700 oven with integrated camera and individual browning feature

Whether dark or delicately browned, Siemens’ iQ700 oven range with integrated camera and artificial intelligence can prepare pizza, lasagna and bread rolls the way each consumer likes them. Consumers just select the desired browning level and a scale from one to five and the oven program turns off automatically once it is finished. Furthermore, the oven sends a notification via the Home Connect app to the consumer’s mobile device.

Enabling a Seamless Culinary Journey in the Connected Kitchen

Who would not want to be able to give their dishwasher feedback now and then? Maybe the wash process could go a little faster, or there is still food stuck to a plate in the lower basket. Now consumers can do just that, teaching their Bosch and Siemens dishwashers about their personal preferences. Immediately following the cleaning cycle, they can rate their satisfaction with cleaning, drying, and duration via the Home Connect app. Based on this feedback, the app recommends an optimised programme that matches the consumers’ needs.

At first glance, the innovative downdraft extractor fan, controlled by the Home Connect app, is a sophisticated slim glass panel that rises up when needed. With Guided Air technology, it creates an air curtain behind the glass, achieving strong suction across all cooking zones and powerfully pulling vapors downwards into the fan. Ambient LED lighting accompanies the cooking process, with colored accents on the glass panel.

Smart Washing and Drying

Doing laundry with Home Connect is the smartest way to perfectly dried clothes. Thanks to Bosch’s Smart Dry and Siemens’ intelligentDry technology, the washer and dryer are closely interconnected. The washing machine sends the parameters from the last wash, including program, fill level and remaining moisture content, to the dryer. The appliance automatically selects the right drying setting – efficient and convenient. Another highlight: the dryer no longer needs a door filter to capture the lint. The appliance self-rinses both the condenser and lint filter automatically after every drying cycle and directs the lint to a filter compartment at the bottom.
