The second generation of the MasterCool series by Miele features a handle-free push-to-open door so the unit can sit flush with the wall, as well as an interior with height-adjustable shelves and bins for flexible storage. Discreet but effective LED strips illuminate the contents and an integrated filter eliminates odours.

Offered in three widths, JennAir’s modern column refrigerators have been updated with over 600 LEDs (to dramatically highlight the obsidian interior) and the Trinity Cooling system (which allows for three customizable and distinct temperature zones within). Solid glass and metal door bins are also new additions.

On the outside, the 400 Series of refrigerators and freezers by Gaggenau can be finished in a single sheet of stainless steel or adapted to match a kitchen’s millwork, while a programmable TFT touch display stores personal preferences. Inside, the anthracite aluminum bins and clear glass shelving can be configured in endless ways on a nearly invisible rail system.

These panel-ready or stainless-steel-fronted fridges by Signature Kitchen Suite are available in 61- and 76-centimetre widths, and can be matched with freezers (in three width options) and opaque glass-door wine coolers to create a seamless kitchen. An all-metal interior and linear compression keep temperatures stable.
