The most purchased kitchen appliances today are white, stainless steel and black. Black is seeing a revival in the last 8-10 years, as it offers a contemporary style that suits modern cabinet furniture and apartment living.

Gloss black units for cooking and refrigeration appliances look fantastic, with a kind of mirrored finish. They also are easy to clean and not so expensive as the stainless steel option.

There wasn’t so much choice a few years ago but many leading brands are now selling more black kitchen appliances. Bosch for example have a whole new range of laundry products in black, and they really look great.

Another good thing about black kitchen appliances, is that they look good and match up fine with stainless steel or with white, so a kitchen design can either be all black or in a mixture to compliment each other.
