Heavy metal Über Furniture has launched its new Couture Collection of kitchens. Colour and texture are both prominent in the new range, with both metallic finishes and natural colour palettes available. In addition, novel innovations include letterbox style doors along with external corner posts. The new metallic Kasai range, pictured here in Bibury


Prosecco and Quartz, is available in six pearlescent finishes which come into their own when sunlight or feature lighting strikes the surface. Meanwhile, the doors are made from polyurethane top coats with polished metallic particles in the paint, and über offers a huge range of handles along with push- to-open and handleless options. www.uberfurniture.co.uk


Time is of the essence Stairways has announced the launch of its quick and easy concealed lining fixing solution for doorsets and door kits, RapidFix. Adding the RapidFix system to a Stairways door kit configuration ensures a neat, secure and tidy fixing method. It also eliminates all face fixing and filling to linings which is especially welcomed when specifying fully finished linings. Both quick and easy to use as well as cost and time effective, RapidFix reduces the need for skilled labour and speeds up installation time. The system is also fire tested and NHBC approved. Joint managing director, Karen Wood, said: “We’ve had a fantastic reaction to this revolutionary product and we’re absolutely delighted with the take up from new and existing customers alike.” Stairways.co.uk


Back to black Offering a high end look for high street prices, the new Black Shine Series from Baumatic provides a range of four black ‘gas on glass’ hobs. Finished in easy-to-clean glass, each of the models has a contemporary look that will add visual interest to a worktop. Silver dial controls provide a distinctive look,


while practicality has been taken care of via the full size cast iron pan stands which provide greater stability. Offering cooking diversity, most of the hobs come with a triple crown wok burner for fast or Asian style heating. The range includes two 30cm domino hobs as well as two standard size 60cm models. www.baumatic.co.uk

106|May 2013 showhouse


Small but perfectly formed Appliance specialist Caple has produced a new collection of eco-friendly, efficient dishwashing appliances, including the new slim-line Di474. This model has an A+ rating for energy, making it incredibly efficient, with an A for washing and drying performance. Water consumption is also kept to a minimum with just 10.5 litres of water used for every economy wash. This fully integrated model measures just 45cm in width and still has ample room for nine place settings, making it a great choice if you’re short on space. Inside, there’s further proof that advanced technology has allowed for extra space, as this model still holds a maximum plate diameter of 30cm, making it a good choice for larger items, such as dinner party charger plates. In addition, this integrated appliance operates at 55dB, which is below conversation level (60dB) so it fits in well in open-plan kitchen designs. www.caple.co.uk
