What to consider when buying new kitchen appliances
Cost
If you're working with a limited budget, you want a product that's going to offer value for money without compromising on performance. At John Lewis, there's a wide selection of price points across popular brands – plus all electricals come with a minimum two-year guarantee at no extra cost. Several products also come with an extra three-year warranty that can be redeemed after you purchase.
Size
Not only should your new kitchen appliance be able to fit in the space you have, it should also be able to serve the number of people in your household. Look at the product's capacity and dimensions, as well as the number of place settings, shelves, or trays, and compare it to your current set-up.
Energy efficiency
Before purchasing a new appliance, you want to be sure it will give you the best results without creating a big dent in your energy bills. All John Lewis electricals are clearly labelled with energy efficiency ratings, and there's even a guide to buying energy efficient appliances, recycling, and understanding energy ratings on the John Lewis website.

Samsung RL38C776ASR freestanding 70/30 fridge-freezer
With an 387-litre capacity and room for up to 24 bags of shopping, this fridge-freezer provides ample space for families or anyone regularly feeding a crowd. The Big Door Bin can house cartons and bottles of up to four litres, and the thin walls allow for more room on the inside of the fridge-freezer too – with impacting the outside size.
What makes it particularly impressive, though, is Samsung's Twin Cooling Plus™ technology, which uses two separate air flows and precise temperature controls to help keep groceries fresher for longer – resulting in fewer trips to the supermarket.

Miele G7460 SCVi integrated dishwasher
Featuring 14-place settings, this smart dishwasher from Miele uses AutoDos technology to detect how dirty your pots, pans and plates are, so there's never too much detergent or water in each cycle (a great potential cost-saver). There's also a height-adjustable drawer if you need more room for bigger items, a 3D Multiflex tray that takes care of all your cutlery and utensils, and an app to control your dishwasher remotely.
The 58-minute quick-wash option comes in handy if you need your crockery clean in a hurry, plus there are energy-saving features to help keep electricity costs low. When your load is clean, the door will automatically open too, allowing in a natural flow of air so everything dries quickly.

Whether it's a heavily soiled pan or delicate glassware and crockery, this 13-place Bosch dishwasher offers a range of dedicated cleaning options – plus energy and water-saving features. It's built with a whisper-quiet motor and silence programme, which reduces the spray pressure and the length of the cycle without compromising on performance.
Other features include a TimeLight, which displays the programme status and remaining time on the floor, and an Extra Clean Zone on the top basket for those items that need some extra TLC.

Beko BBAIF22300X built-in single electric oven
This 72-litre oven from Beko uses AeroPerfect™ technology to ensure fast and consistent cooking, so everything you bake has an even finish. That means no more worrying that the food on the top shelf will be overdone while the bottom shelf catches up.
Keeping the oven clean isn't a hassle either thanks to the SimplySteam™ setting. Simply pour water into a tray and place inside the oven, then as the water evaporates, it will soften the burnt-on residue so it's easier to wipe away. In an effort to recycle waste, parts of the oven have also been made from recycled fishing nets and industrial thread waste.

Neff N50 C1AMG84N0B built-in electric compact oven with microwave
Offering a 44-litre capacity, this multifunctional appliance from Neff is all about convenience. It has a brightly lit LCD display with large, clear characters, and automatic programmes that remove the guesswork from cooking specific dishes.
The Hotair feature is ideal for baking, as it ensures each corner of the oven receives an even amount of heat. It also comes with a built-in combination combination for reheating, defrosting or preparing a variety of dishes, so you get two appliances in one – and save space on the countertop too.
Cooking programmes include microwave, hot air, circo-roasting (best for meat and poultry), keep warm, and a full-surface grill, plus there are four additional defrost settings, three cooking presets, and eight combination presets.

Bosch Series 4 KGN392LDFG freestanding 70/30 fridge-freezer
This freestanding fridge-freezer from Bosch uses clever tech to keep cool air moving around inside the cavity, so your groceries stay fresh for long as possible. It has a 363-litre capacity, with five shelves and space for 22 shopping bags. It stays frost-free too, so you never need to worry about manually defrosting it.
When you arrive home with your food shop, you can also use the Super Cool and Super Freeze functions to reduce the temperature of each compartment – so your newly purchased food items hit the correct temperature quickly, without impacting the other food items already stored inside.
And if you're concerned about how it will fit in your existing space, or you want a more ergonomic design, this appliance even has a reversible door hinge.

AEG Sensiboil IAE84421FB 80cm induction hob
One of the most impressive parts of this AEG induction hob is the MaxiSense® technology, which automatically detects the shape and size of the pan you're using and exclusively directs heat to the base of it. That means no energy gets wasted elsewhere, and the surrounding areas stay cool to the touch.
Another useful safety (and potentially cost-saving) feature is the Boil Sensor, which detects rising bubbles and automatically reduces the temperature settings to a simmer. The smooth surface of the induction hob also wipes clean easily, and there's even a combine-zone button that links two cooking zones together if you're using large pans.
