Many consumers have fallen in love with the Kitchenaid brand. Although they are best known for their stand mixers, Kitchenaid also produces many functional refrigerator units ideal for household use.
The company first entered the public eye when it introduced its heavy duty, multi functional stand mixer in 1919. In the following decades, Kitchenaid has grown to include numerous products as well as improvements to its original appliance.
In 1936, Kitchenaid celebrated the contributes of famous industrial designer, Egmont Arens. Arens was set to creating the design for the next famous stand mixer model. In 1946, Kitchenaid gave consumers the KD-10, which utilized the first pressure system to clean dishes at home.
The Chambers Range Company was acquired in 1955 and added cooking appliances to the Kitchenaid repertoire. This was also the year the first colorful stand mixers were made available.
Refrigerators were added to the Kitchenaid catalog in 1986 and in 1992, a line of blenders were introduced to the Kitchenaid portable appliance line. Since then, the company has been adding more appliances to cover every aspect of functionality in the kitchen.
The Kitchenaid company has also gained favor with consumers because of the approach it takes to marketing and designing its products. Each new creation is intended to help consumers live more comfortably, primarily through food preparation and storage. Modern refrigerators produced by Kitchenaid come in a wide variety of designs, from bottom freezers to top freezers as well as side by side and French door designs.
