Perhaps you are one of the millions people that hates clean up the kitchen after cooking, perhaps you are concern for the waste of energy in your dishwasher, perhaps you look at the future praying for a “robot” that could help you to do the homework, well the answer is “The Self-Cleaning Kitchen”. This simple device can also be called “The Future Of Dishwashers” using the same working principle of dishwashers it washes with the same soap and hot water the dirty dishes, eating utensils and also the electric cooktop with touch control, the greasy range hood, sink, countertop… in fact the whole stainless steel kitchen, resulting in a save of energy, resources and of course your own time. In the upper part is hidden the rack for the dishes, this rack also holds the water spray arms like a conventional dishwasher, when you want to do the washing up, you just have to pull down the rack, put the dishes, glasses and cutlery in the rack, add some dishwasher detergent in the dispenser and lift up the countertop to close the self-cleaning kitchen. The countertop has and L shape so when you close the kitchen the water falls in the corner of this L and runs till the filter in the sink so there is no leak possibility. The filter, pumps, heater and all the electromechanical parts are under the sink, this results in a compact size so you can put “The Self-Cleaning Kitchen” in a new kitchen design or adapt it to an existing one. All parts in contact with water are stainless steel, the external parts can be also stainless steel or have a colourful finishing. Energy efficient, design and practicality for the “must have” kitchen appliance of tomorrow. Would you like one? Me too
