It is indeed odd to see the name Grundig on appliances. We had a few Grundig tv's and radios from Grundig in the past. It used to be a typical brown good name.

I think it looks good - I haven't yet read up about them but given that we choose a lot of things on looks alone I think it stands out and I would consider it. I don't find the facia as cluttered as some I have seen. Personally, I am not keen on everything being spelled out on the facia - I prefer symbols, the more obscure the better. As long as I know what they mean that is all that matters - don't nobody use my washing machine unless under very close supervision! As for the Grundig name, I do associate it with brown goods and pretty low end as well so I would have to overcome my own prejudices...................

I noticed around Christmas 2012, that a discount chain store was selling Grundig Foodmixers in black & steel. They looked similar to Kenwood Chefs.
I see that Tefal has also branched out into the Kenwood Chef market.

Grundig went bankrupt in 2003, and Koç/Arçelik (the Turks who make Beko) ended up buying the remains.
So Grundig is no longer German, but Turkish. Don't expect that to be highlighted as a sales argument any time soon, but for informed buyers it's nice to know...

Lovely
I love the design of the Grundig. It does look like the evolution of the Servis quartz and possibly what it may have looked like today had it been carried on. I would buy one anyway.

Nice looking machines
I think over here they were known for their shortwave radios and stereos. I may have even seen a Grundig TV once.
I like how they showed how they filmed that commercial, but that camera on the boom is huge. Do you think it still is film??
Its also nice to see they've gotten away from that green florolumonescent screen technology behind a green or brown gel.

Infact, the STYLING is good. Has anybody recognized that the buttons on the left under the display look like some the older Bosch-modells (these with the buttons you pres and they saty in until you pres them again), the knob itself looks more like the newer Bosch, the middle display over the knob was first used by Samsung here in europe (but as time display). So, in my opinion, a quiet style-mixing machine.
BUT if I read A+++-35% and NO water-spray-tech, i would say, these machines will also work kind of BSH. And in i think they work pretty bad (rinseresults, drum size, cycle-times, temperature).
But does anybody now if the dryer reversers? If, that would be on BIG advantage for all custumers.

Grundig's site says the dryers reverse.

This is another case of some company buying out the no longer used brand name and slapping it on new products. Remember Packard-Bell computers? Same thing. How long did those last in the U.S.?

Dave886,
Your opening message with the pic, the style looks like a cross between my Servis quartz 6036G (ZodaWash's old Servis) & my Bosch Logixx WFT2800.
I say this, because both the Quartz & the Logixx use piano key selection buttons, which's what this Grundig sports, from your pic.
