Technologically Advanced Designs: Awesome & Automated

Latest Kitchen Islands from Toncelli operate from push-button [Toncelli]

The Essential kitchen island from Toncelli is a prime example of how you can combine aesthetics and automation into one striking design. Featuring photoelectric cells and push-button automation wrapped in rich olive-wood construction, you’ll be amazed at how simple your culinary chores can be. With the push of a button, slide the wooden countertop out of the way to reveal your stainless steel sinks, prep and cooking areas underneath, literally putting extra counter space at your fingertips.

In line with the latest kitchen trends, the Essential kitchen from Toncelli presents us with the very best of two worlds. The massive Olive wood construction brings to mind a traditional, comforting image of a kitchen from which great home-cooked food emerges. But on the other hand, this is no traditional kitchen! Rather, this is a finely-tuned machine with all the latest advanced technology dedicated to helping you make the most of your time in the kitchen. The Olive wood worktop surfaces slide away electrically at the push of a button to reveal stainless steel areas dedicated to cooking and washing, and giving you lots of extra counter space!
