Among manufacturers of household appliances for the kitchen there are conditional divisions into levels of prestige and quality: budget, or economy-class appliances, optimum, or middle class, and luxury appliances. Built-in appliances by Neff, reviews of which allowed it to conquer the Russian market in a short time, and impeccable long-term experience gave the company the right to be deservedly called the leader among elite household appliances.
Why has this company become synonymous with prestige and a high level of reliability among consumers? This is the result of a tandem of impeccable German quality and an innovative approach to production technology, seasoned with an unsurpassed exquisite design.
Home appliance manufacturer Neff
More than 140 years ago in the German city of Bretten, Karl Andreas Neff, a fitter with creative imagination, founded his company Carl Neff Herd und Ofenfabrik. Today this company is part of the Robert Bosch concern along with brands such as Bosch, Siemens, Gaggenau. Today, Robert Bosch’s company offers consumers reliable German technology in various functional and price segments, where the products of the Neff factory occupy the position of high-quality elite equipment designed primarily for European consumers.
The company produces about 1.5 million units of products annually, but it officially entered the Russian market only in 2005, and excellent reviews allowed it to quickly gain popularity. Neff appliances are in high demand today, because there are more and more lovers of elite household equipment with a high level of reliability.
All the best that is created in household appliances - the merit of NEFF
The first microwave oven in Europe was produced by Neff back in 1957. But this achievement fades in comparison with what was done by the inventors of the factory a year later. The sensational hob with induction heating, which is used today by all the chefs in the world, was created in this company.
Europeans were amazed at the possibility of safe cooking without directly heating the surface, but the factory's engineering bureau did not cease to amaze with its new developments. Among the innovative implementations of the company is the pyrolysis system for self-cleaning ovens, which is considered revolutionary around the world. Recessed plates, where the door is made entirely of glass, are also designed on the basis of the engineering office of the Neff factory. In addition, a system of high-speed convection in ovens has been developed, which allows you to create the same temperature at all levels and cook up to three dishes at the same time.
With all the innovative developments, the company paid no less attention to the intricacies of design, due to which Neff appliances won multiple awards at various interior exhibitions. Reviews about it, however, most of all refer precisely to durability and reliability, therefore, in addition to skillful and recognizable design, the factory attaches great importance to the quality of its products.
Is the Neff technique made by the Germans?
Despite the fact that many European companies exported their products to countries with cheaper labor, the customer policy of the factory remained the same - Neff kitchen appliances should have unsurpassed German quality and reliability, which, according to the board, cannot be reproduced due to lack of pedantry in the mentality of other countries.
Today, absolutely all models of equipment are manufactured in Europe, with the exception of budget models of embedded microwave. The output of several models to China was driven by demand for these products. But the technology of built-in microwave ovens does not allow to reduce the cost of equipment manufactured in Europe, even taking into account the delicate logistics. Therefore, the company offers several microwave models at budget prices manufactured at a manufacturing base in China, but leaves the consumer with the opportunity to purchase a microwave oven manufactured at its main factory in Germany.
Where exactly is the Neff technology manufactured?
The main production facilities of the factory are concentrated in Germany. They make hoods, induction and electric hobs, the bulk of ovens and all dishwashers. The company pays special attention to these products based on quality requests, and it is on these positions that it is gaining the best reviews.
Neff equipment is also produced in Italy. These are mainly gas hobs and stoves, since Italians are famous throughout Europe for their reliable gas technologies. Also, a large share is the production of Neff range hoods, which is also due to the availability of the best technologies in this area. Part of the hobs is made in Spain and France, and in France several models of ovens are also made in order to relieve the main production.
As for the built-in two-chamber refrigerators, their production is also concentrated in Germany itself, as the company pays special attention to this class of products. Therefore, large appliances Neff also have very good reviews, the prices for which, even those made in Germany, are not very high today thanks to well-established logistics.
Benefits of Neff Gas Ovens
An important criterion for choosing an oven among consumers is the method of heating. It is gas or electric. And if the bulk of the ovens is made on the basis of electrical technology, then only reliable companies produce gas cabinets. It is known that gas heating is simple and cheap, in addition, many consumers believe that some products, such as meat, can be ideally cooked only with the help of fire. However, when connected to a gas- fired built-in oven, there are a number of features that the manufacturer must consider, and first of all it is safety and reliability. Neff gas ovens are the guarantee of product quality. They are equipped with the functions of gas control, timer, electric ignition, making life more convenient and safer.
Advantages of Neff Electric Ovens
Ovens with electric heating, unlike gas ones, heat up to a predetermined temperature faster and more accurately support it during cooking. Convection and heating elements located on all sides, and not from below, like gas ones, allow you to cook three different dishes at once with the same temperature anywhere in the oven.
The cleaning system for Neff cabinets is given special attention. Catalytic has improved properties and allows you to not change the panel during the entire period of operation (approximately 10 years). However, pyrolytic cleaning is considered the best today. Although the Neff pyrolysis technique reviews well, many consumers complain of a smell during such cleaning.
To avoid such unpleasant consequences, the manufacturer advises cleaning the oven as it becomes soiled, and not once a year. Energy efficiency technologies today allow Neff ovens to consume about 4.2 kW per cleaning. If you translate this into rubles, then saving energy seems completely pointless, because the costs are minimal, so you should not save, it’s better to just turn on pyrolysis for cleaning more often.
Neff hobs and their advantages
Neff hobs are available in four versions: gas, electric, induction and combination. Regarding Neff gas hobs, customer reviews focus primarily on reliability and safety. The specially developed Flame Tronic ignition system allows you to ignite the gas again with possible attenuation, and this function is combined with gas control, which stops the gas supply when filling the burner.
Customers in all panels appreciate the wok burner. And Domino models among electric panels stand out for their design and modular options.
Yes, Neff household appliances are very popular, reviews of which can be found all over the world, and only in a positive light. And induction hobs are in special demand. And although almost all manufacturers offer these models today, the main advantages of Neff products among users are: a perfectly flat surface, stylish design, ultra-sensitive sensors with autonomous control, combined zones for non-standard dishes.
Cooker hoods Neff
Unsurpassed design and quality materials ... It would seem that only this can earn excellent reviews. Neff appliances for the kitchen, and in particular hoods, are famous not only for design. Their main advantage is a low noise during operation. What became possible thanks to the development of the company's engineers - the SilenceTaste system with two engines. Even at maximum speeds, this hood will work quietly, while maintaining comfort in the kitchen. However, not everyone is willing to pay for comfort, because Neff hoods are considered the most expensive.
What is the difference between Neff dishwashers from other manufacturers
The main advantage of dishwashers is their energy efficiency. In Europe, they attach great importance to this indicator, and since the main sales market of the company is European, there is no doubt about Class A energy consumption.
The Neff dishwasher per cycle, depending on the model, will use up to 8 to 12 liters of water, which is also important when considering costs. At the same time, the Duo Wash system will allow you to wash simultaneously and heavily soiled dishes, and delicate fragile glass. It is these capabilities that Neff dishwashers are famous for. This function is achieved due to the distributed temperature regime in the upper and lower basket and control over the water pressure.
Soundproofing in the dishwashers of this manufacturer also favorably affects the opinion of consumers. It has long been noticed that models of the same functionality by other manufacturers do not work as quietly as Neff dishwashers, while the latter have a high quality of washing.
