Chef Tommy Banks chooses Miele appliances for his home kitchen, inspired by a visit to a Miele Experience Centre. He praises Miele's advanced capabilities, enabling restaurant-quality cooking at home, from steaming to sous vide. 

With expertise spanning over 30 years, London-born mother of three Annabel Karmel MBE reigns as the UK’s no. 1 children’s cookery author, bestselling international author, and a world-leading expert on devising delicious, nutritious meals for babies and children.  With 50 published cookbooks, and an MBE in the Queen’s Birthday Honours, Annabel is loved and trusted all over the world for raising healthy, happy eaters.  We are delighted to have partnered with Annabel on her home kitchen, which is often used for recipe development to include our Steam Combination ovens, which ensure no water-soluble vitamins and nutrients are lost, essential for family cooking.​​
