Reno fans, rejoice! The Block is back on our TV screens, inspiring home renovation dreams across the country with great design and even greater kitchen and laundry appliances. As teams transform a series of 1950s houses in Melbourne’s East, you’ll be seeing lots of one all-star appliance brand in particular – ASKO.
As a proud supplier to Australia’s favourite reno show, The Good Guys has teamed up with ASKO and Kinsman Kitchens to bring Blockheads’ visions to life – because only the best will do on The Block!
“Easy on the eye and loaded with smart tech that truly makes life easier, these ASKO appliances hit the sweet spot between good looks and practicality,” says Tania Grillinzoni, The Good Guys Buyer – Cooking and Dishwashers.
“For Blockheads, this translates to higher scores from the judges and, hopefully, higher bids come auction day.” Want to set yourself up for success for your next reno, new build or kitchen and laundry upgrade? Take a leaf from The Block playbook with quality European ASKO appliances, stylishly designed to go the distance.
So which Block couple is loving ASKO? That would be South Australian contestants Kristy and Brett at House 3, who have been busy merging Victorian and contemporary styles in a marriage of old and new. When kitting out their kitchen, laundry and granny flat, the couple cast ASKO appliances as the star in their reno build.
“It speaks volumes that Kristy and Brett opted for ASKO throughout their home. It’s a brand that’s synonymous with quality, which will impress prospective buyers,” says ASKO appliance expert Rob Butchatsky Sales Director.
Read on for the must-have ASKO tech that is set to steal The Block limelight!
Steam cooking is a hot trend, so it makes sense that Kristy and Brett incorporated an ASKO steam oven in their kitchen design. Steam locks in flavour and nutrients whilst retaining the taste, texture and goodness for every dish creating healthier meals with no additional fat or oil required and no risk of over-cooking. ASKO’s Pure Steam technology ensures that the steam is free from water droplets and combined with ASKO’s 5 Airflow system, ensures hot air and steam reaches every corner of the oven making food perfectly baked on all sides. With over 100 automated cooking programs and up to 25 oven functions to bake, grill and steam like a pro, the ASKO 60cm Combination Steam Oven and the ASKO 45cm Combination Steam Oven – Black Steel are the chef’s secret that takes cooking to the next level.
Oven cleaning is about as popular as 2am painting sessions, as any Blockhead will tell you. That’s why Kristy and Brett opted for ASKO self-cleaning ovens that let you cook more and clean less.
“Pyrolytic oven cleaning reduces grease and grime to ash that you simply sweep away,” says ASKO expert Rob Butchastky. “This feature, paired with a black steel finish and 6.1” TFT colour display, made ASKO ovens an easy choice for The Block 2023 contestants.”
The South Australian couple sweetened the deal with an ASKO Deep Baking Pan – perfect for using with the included temperature probe that makes it possible to cook a roast to perfection.
Talk about multi-tasking! The ASKO 45cm Combination Microwave Oven – an inspired choice in House 3’s granny flat – pivots between microwave and oven mode, so you have the best of both worlds. The 120 automated programs cover everything from reheating leftovers to baking cakes.
The lucky buyer of House 3 will find meal prep a breeze with the ASKO induction gas hob, which features ASKO’s powerful Fusion Volcano wok burner for quick and easy stir fries combined with fast and precise induction cooking zones.
Kirsty and Brett upped their cooktop’s versatility with an ASKO Teppanyaki Plate and ASKO Grill Plate – MicroCeramic-coated plates for perfectly seared seafood, meat and veggies.
Like a trophy cabinet for your wines, the ASKO Wine Climate Cabinet is the House 3 home for chardonnay, pinot noir and more. With three climate zones, humidity control and a wine serving area this cabinet lets you preserve or age wines and helps you keep track of your collection through the smartphone app.
How to wow The Block judges during Laundry Week? Kristy and Brett went with sleek and smart ASKO laundry appliances to give them their best chance at a perfect 10.
“From energy efficient heat pump dryers to quick wash programs, ASKO laundry appliances have the features buyers want,” says Peter Simic, The Good Guys Buyer – Laundry.
It’s not just The Block Australia contestants who adore ASKO appliances – the Scandinavian-inspired brand has fans all over the world, drawn to its smart and stylish appliances.
From fast-heating cooktops to clever drying cabinets that dry clothes quickly, ASKO brings the technology to make life easier.
Want peace of mind with your purchase? All ASKO Australia cooking appliances come with a five-year warranty.
