Here are some that will make you think.

Kimchi Fridge

Any Korean readers will automatically be tantalized at the thought of Kimchi. Kimchi is a Korean delicacy made from freshly harvested and fermented vegetables. It does not keep particularly well and in a conventional refrigerator the smell soon taints everything being cooled. For this reason, upmarket Koreans use a Kimchi fridge that has been specially designed to keep Kimchi at the right temperature and eradicate the somewhat potent odour. These fridges are specially made and have price tags that start around $1,000.

Not many have been sold but this does nonetheless prove how very capable AEG is as a brand.

This is not so much an appliance but a really clever use of space that may inspire many people. This clever thinking dish draining closet from Finland solves an age old problem with drying and draining space by conventional sink is limited.
