Signature Kitchen Suite (SKS) appliances are crafted for precision, performance and culinary passion.
In the luxury kitchen, every detail matters—from perspective to performance to palate. Meet the new generation of forward-thinking home chefs who seek the latest design and technology innovation in appliances that meet their high-performance demands and enable them to fully express their culinary prowess.
SKS, also known as Signature Kitchen Suite, is a luxury kitchen appliance line that offers built-in appliances with the latest technology designed specifically for these passionate home chefs. Here are four important qualities that make this luxury line of appliances stand out.
Central to luxury kitchens are premium appliances that maximize performance, matching the space’s design in both form and function. SKS creates built-in appliances that blend stunning, purposeful design with leading-edge innovation. The SKS 30″ Integrated Column Refrigerator, for example, is the most spacious 30-inch built-in column refrigerator in the industry, with a total of 18 cubic feet of storage capacity. It includes an internal water dispenser that delivers chilled and filtered drinking water, panel-ready design flexibility and an all-metal interior to help minimize temperature fluctuations within one degree to maintain food freshness. Plus, it pairs beautifully with the SKS 18″ Integrated Column Freezer for a custom, integrated look.
Quality means appliances that are crafted with precision and performance in mind to enable the highest level of food preparation. As arguably the most crucial component of any kitchen, your cooking appliance must be reliable and versatile for years to come. The SKS 36″ Induction Pro Range features two flexible cooking zones on the cooktop for various cookware sizes, alongside the industry’s most powerful 7,000W centre element among 36-inch induction cooktops paired with pots over 9 inches. Also included is a steam and convection combination oven to allow for adaptable cooking and baking.
A modern kitchen design should combine purposeful, innovative technology to enhance the cooking experience to achieve restaurant-quality results. The SKS 30″ Combi Wall Oven features some of the industry’s most cutting-edge technology to make preparing any dish even smoother. The steam-assist convection oven can cook up to 20 percent faster than conventional models. Infrared technology eliminates the need for preheating, while steam-assist convection provides gourmet results in a large-capacity oven. In addition, Gourmet AI technology combined with a built-in camera identifies food types and provides automatic recipe suggestions.
Ultimately, kitchen design is meant to reflect a love for all aspects of the culinary arts. The SKS 24″ Integrated Column Wine Refrigerator boasts a 113-bottle capacity to ensure the perfect pairing is always at the ready. Dark, opaque glass doors with Touch Display Lighting provide UV protection, while a smart inverter compressor wards against vibration. Three evaporators maintain steady moderate humidity, and three independent temperature zones ensure optimal conditions for red, white and sparkling wines.
SKS’s passion for innovation results in products that are aesthetically designed, intuitive and intelligent. Learn more about SKS and shop these luxury appliances at sksappliances.com/en-ca.
