Growth in new centre

Since the Dishwasher and Hood Centre moved to new premises in Mandeville Street in March, 1985, it has grown steadily and broadened the range of its products to become Christchurch’s premier appliance centre. The Dishwasher and Hood Centre is the principal distributor of Classlque, one of the country’s best known range hoods, along with its ranges of dishwashers, waste disposals and other appliances. For style, elegance and quality one cannot go past the Domino range of European cooking hobs, manufactured in Italy by Gasfire S.P.A., a large manufacturer of electric and gas appliances. These products are designed and produced to the very highest standards, offering unmatched quality and style. Whatever your cooking preferences, Classique Dominos enable you to create your own cooking system. Two or four burner, gas or electric hobs, an electric barbeque grill or magnificent deep fryer — there is a combination to meet every requirement. Beautiful removable glass lids which add instant class to your kitchen

decor are supplied with each Domino purchased. These luxury imports are the ultimate in modern cooking appliances. The Classique Downdraft gives efficient, unobstrusive grease and odour extraction. The Classique Downdraft is an integrated high powered proximity ventilation system designed as an effective alternative to conventional Rangehoods or extractor fans. The Classique Downdraft is amazingly quiet and ideally suited to combine with imported Gasfire Dominos. The Downdraft can also be installed immediately beside an upright cooker or cooking hob. An efficient multilayer aluminium filter effectively removes grease particles and is easily removed for cleaning. Smeg offers understated Italian styling and is one of the world’s foremost names in kitchen appliances. It has long been renowned for setting new standards of excellence in product quality and cooking techniques. Both the single underbench and wall mounted double ovens have thermo fan ovens and exclusive high temperature searing

controls. Each oven features a fully retractable facia, concealing controls and maintaining the flush lines and elegance of your kitchen. The model S 18 double oven features a compact top oven offering many special features. The roof element may be selected for browning or floor heating can be chosen. Both elements together are suitable for baking bread and scones or cooking game. This versatile compact oven grills evenly and thoroughly with the door closed. Grilling is growing in popularity, as it is now believed that grilled foods are healthier, more nutritious and in many cases, better tasting. Smeg ovens are fitted with an infra-red grill, grill pan and handle as standard equipment. The exclusive special Browning Control on Model S 16 has a timer which overrides the thermostat setting for up to 15 minutes allowing maximum heat for searing meats. Smeg Thermofan ovens have a fan-only control for quick and easy defrosting of frozen foods, while all Smeg ovens have catalytic self-cleaning linings.
