Why Smeg?
Smeg appliances have an incomparable design. Without a doubt, a product from the Italian manufacturer will steal the show from any other household appliance in your kitchen. The design is colorful, striking, and perfectly formed. In every respect, Smeg kitchen appliances correspond to the perfect design with the highest standards of design Made in Italy. This is ensured by world-famous designers who develop the household appliances brand together: Smeg x Dolce and Gabbana, Guido Canali and the Piano Design studio are just a few names that express the living style of our time with Smeg appliances.
Production is based on the three pillars of product design, quality and technology. In addition to the appearance, the technical equipment and quality also play a role. Smeg can look back on a long company history: in 1948, the Italian Vittorio Bertazzoni founded the Smeg brand in Guastalla, Reggio Emilia, a province in northern Italy that is still the company's headquarters today. Bertazzoni's family history goes back to the 19th century. The family originally worked in the blacksmith's shop and over the years began producing freestanding stoves. Today, Smeg develops electrical appliances and small appliances for the kitchen.

Our Smeg favorites
Smeg creates unique products. Sometimes they are so unique that they cannot be assigned to the classic design lines. For example, the collection that was created in collaboration with the designer duo Dolce & Gabbana. We present this collection and two other unique kitchen appliances to you: Our three highlights from Smeg that no kitchen should be without!
Smeg and Dolce & Gabbana
For the second time, Smeg and Dolce & Gabbana have joined forces and created a unique collection. "Sicily is my love" is the name of the small appliance collection Made in Italy. A special feature is the unmistakable look that is familiar from the designers: toasters, citrus presses, kettles and the like appeared in a Mediterranean arrangement of lemons, oranges, prickly pears and cherries. It is reminiscent of the home of Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana: Sicily.
Smeg and Mickey Mouse
Among the Smeg innovations is the refrigerator in comic design and our second highlight product. The iconic FAB Retro-Kühlschrank in white now appears with a Mickey Mouse sketch. The basis was the limited special edition for the 90th birthday of the Disney character. Now the Mickey Mouse refrigerator is going into series production.
Smeg and Fiat
Smeg and the car manufacturer Fiat prove that a refrigerator can do more than just cool things and a car can do more than just drive. Together they have created the Fiat 500 Mini Bar, an Italian icon that turns your living room into a cool bar. Only Smeg can create such a product!
