About the Bauknecht brand

For more than 90 years, Bauknecht has been making quality, innovative appliances for the home that make everyday life easier. Today the brand is part of the Whirlpool Group, which is the world’s leading manufacturer and supplier of household appliances. Bauknecht products are particularly popular in the German-speaking countries, the Benelux and Scandinavia.

Home appliances make life easier for consumers. But convenience is not the only criterion for choice.

Recently, products that meet the requirements of a healthy lifestyle and do not harm the environment have become more appreciated. A number of studies conducted by Bauknecht in recent years in Germany, Switzerland, the Netherlands and Belgium confirm this fact.

Comfort, health and environmental protection – these are the main principles that Bauknecht adheres to in the manufacture of its products.

Starting with comfort

Bauknecht’s innovative technologies are designed to make home life more comfortable for consumers.

For example, the PowerClean technology, used in Bauknecht dishwashers, allows even very dirty dishes to be perfectly cleaned without soaking or pre-rinsing. Steam treatment function in new washing machines guarantees high quality of washing even in cold water.

The convenience of Bauknecht appliances is not only because of the innovative technology – the products of this brand are notable for their ease of use. A variety of useful features and a noble appearance make the Bauknecht built-in appliances the best choice for the modern kitchen. Bauknecht built-in and freestanding appliances use the innovative, multi-award winning ProTouch stainless steel surface treatment. Not only does it look stylish, but it is also highly practical due to its scratch and dirt resistance.

Don’t forget health

Bauknecht appliances help protect the health of consumers. Bauknecht washing machines and dishwashers have excellent hygiene performance and remove dirt even in cold water.

Hygiene is also important when storing food. Bauknecht fridges are equipped with the effective Hygiene 3 system, which significantly reduces bacteria and mould in the refrigerator without the use of chemicals.

For health-conscious eaters, Bauknecht offers appliances that preserve valuable vitamins and minerals in the food during cooking – steamers, microwave ovens with grill and steam functions.

Mindful of nature

When you choose Bauknecht appliances, you can rest assured that the environmental impact of their manufacture and operation has been minimized thanks to innovative technologies. Thus, in the development of refrigerators and freezers a lot of attention is paid to their energy efficiency – which is very important, because such devices are always on.

Dishwashers with Sensor+ technology are not only user-friendly, they also consume less water and less energy. The PowerClean technology, already mentioned, dispenses with energy-intensive pre-rinsing modes. Bauknecht washing machines are also energy efficient – this is one of their key features.

For example, thanks to a new development – the Super Eco cycle – the modern machines use 67% less energy compared to the models from 12 years ago. Bauknecht built-in hobs and ovens set new standards for sustainability. In all models, advanced insulation and an innovative approach to heat use reduce energy consumption to less than 0.8

The triple coated glass inner door, the CleverClean heat reflector and the special insulation on the outside that prevents heat loss are all major design features that make this possible.
