Hi Bernhard

That oven and cook top look cool; love the angled control panel of the cook top - what brand are they? Is the bottom drawer a broiler and what about the drawer above the oven, is that actaully a part of it and what is it for? Clearly it's a bit high to accomodate utensils. In the kitchen picture I noticed some switches along the wall. Was there a garbage disposal built into that sink?

It would be interesting to know if that dishwasher was built specifically for export and designed to run on 220 volts or is it rated 110 volts, with a built-in voltage converter?

 

[bernhard]

see the label: it's rated 220 volts. and i did not find any converter.

oven and cook top are "prometheus", which seems to be a swiss brand.
i'm sorry, but i don't know, what the drawers were for - and i really regret, that these units were scrapped...

the switches on the wall were just for light and one is a water-valve for the dishwasher. garbage-disposals are not common in europe and there definately was none in that kitchen.

Great save, Bernhard! Thanks for showing it to us..an export model built for 220 volts and 50 Hertz!

You and rollermatic might have the last ones. These can't be very common.

Your English is quite good, by the way.

I agree..

That kitchen was beautiful, those appliances looked like real quality...
