the Convert Function, which allows users to adjust the temperature to suit their needs. The Cool Fresh Box offers an ideal environment for delicate items, while the large Fruit & Vegetable Box provides ample space for fresh produce. Mr Glynn highlights the growing popularity of built-in appliances, explaining that their ability to blend modern aesthetics with outstanding functionality makes them a perfect fit for contemporary kitchens.
“Seamlessly integrated appliances not only maximise space but also enhance the overall design of the kitchen, making them especially popular in modern home interiors,” he adds.
Sleek design Haier provides its ID Titanium Series 6 range of refrigerators, designed with sophisticated features to meet the specific storage needs of consumers. Advanced technology like ‘My Zone’ allows users to customise the temperature settings for optimal freshness, while the ‘Humidity Zone’ function preserves the quality of fruits and vegetables, keeping them crisp and flavourful.
The range also boasts a newly positioned display in the centre of the drawers, offering both ergonomic and practical benefits. From this display, consumers can easily control the temperature for each compartment. Additionally, it provides access to convenient functions like ‘Holiday Mode’, which optimises energy efficiency and performance when users are away. In a different product category, Bluestem
Group has found great success in the hoods and hobs sector: “We’ve seen strong demand for these products due to our decision to offer them unbranded,” says a Bluestem Group spokesperson. “This approach allows customers to mix and match with other brands, offering attractive cost savings.”
This appeals to consumers who prioritise
features, benefits and price over brand names, especially since these products are often hidden in the kitchen and not as visually prominent. The Statesman 60cm Curved Glass Chimney Cooker Hood (CGH160GS) is one of the standout products in the Bluestem range. It combines a sleek, modern curved glass design with three adjustable speed settings, plus its aluminium mesh grease filter is simple to remove, wash and reuse. The built-in 1.5W LED light enhances visibility over the hob, too.

A streamlined look Statesman’s 60cm 4 Zone Induction Hob (IHZ460) also stands out for its performance and design. The hob features a modern black glass surface and offers four powerful induction zones with a total output of 6,800W, making it perfect for cooking multiple dishes at once. The programmable timer adds convenience for busy households, while the nine power levels provide precise control for every dish. Residual heat indicators highlight hot zones for safety, and child locks ensure the controls cannot be changed. “Built-in appliances are increasingly popular with consumers because they seamlessly integrate into kitchen décor, creating a sleek and minimalist aesthetic,” says the Bluestem Group spokesperson. “By being hidden from view or fitted into cabinetry, these appliances provide a clean, streamlined look that aligns with the growing trend of ‘fitted’ kitchens.” Built-in ovens, such as the Statesman BSF60 and BSM60 ranges, offer several practical
advantages. Their 70 litre capacity is larger than most ovens on the market, and unlike freestanding models, built-in ovens can be installed at a convenient height, eliminating the need to bend down while cooking. Some models can even be stacked to save space. Bluestem also offers the Statesman Built-In Single Fan Oven (BSF60), which boasts a spacious 70-litre capacity. Fan-assisted cooking ensures even heat distribution, delivering consistently delicious results. The oven’s multiple cooking functions—including conventional baking, defrosting, fan-assisted cooking, and grilling—make it versatile enough for a variety of culinary tasks.
Space-saving solutions Elsewhere, Belling has its ComfortCook Collection, which includes a range of 60, 70 and 90cm ovens, alongside gas and induction hobs, offering innovation and practicality to withstand the demands of a busy household.
