This year, LG is planning to roll out a full range of smart appliances in the hope of transforming our living, through energy saving and convenience improving products.
The smart technology, called ‘THINQ’ includes Smart Grid, Smart Diagnosis, Smart Access, Smart Adapt and Smart Manager and allows customers to manage their refrigerators, washing machines, ovens and vacuum cleaners from a remote network.
The House Saver: LG Smart Washing Machine delivers washing performance but with very minimal energy use plus has this Smart Diagnosis. Then, if and when a problem arises, all you need to do is phone the call service and press diagnosis for the staff to identify what the issue is, remotely, by listening to the tones from the machine!
And the Smart Access option means you can control the washing machine on your mobile, by changing the cycle or starting a drying function.
When did housework become so simple?!

We love contemporary design, so when we saw this uber modern Cooker Hood by Electrolux, we were just blown away!
The lampshade-styled cooker hood hangs directly from the ceiling so it will have extra impact when placed over island units.
The EFA50700 is available in stainless steel, white and black which so you can select the right tone to match your kitchen.
As well as it’s striking design, it also boasts three levels of extraction, a charcoal filter and an aluminium grease filter to purify the air while you cook.
And if that wasn’t enough, there’s also two choices of lighting: two 20W halogen lights can provide a bright, clear light or opt for four 40W lights for a more ambient atmosphere.
We’d love to see one of these hanging in our kitchen!

Last year Magnet installed a brand new kitchen for This Morning, so we were delighted to see the breakfast TV show’s team pick up the award for the Best Topical Magazine Programme at the National Television Awards last night.
Magnet supplied This Morning with a curvaceous and fresh Crème Lineaire kitchen in September 2010, and ever since the kitchen has been put to good use.
The kitchen is an integral part of the show and reflects the warm and glossy personalities of the presenters Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield. And no doubt you will have tuned in at some point to see the lovely Gino D’Acampo rustle up some tasty recipes.
Ladies of the world rejoice – the win also means that a certain Italian chef will have to fulfill his promise to cook naked on the show!
On behalf of Magnet, we just want to say a huge well done to Holly, Phillip, Gino and all the rest of the team at This Morning!

One of the latest colour trends has walked straight off the catwalk and into the kitchen. Fashion’s hottest colour for Autumn/Winter, camel, has hit interiors in the form of Magnet’s Urban Café range.
The Urban Café is as contemporary as it gets, with high gloss doors and a distinctive camel finish. Combined with Urban Crème it creates even more drama and impact.
The kitchen also features a complimentary ‘Coco Bola’ laminate worktop, which completes the overall warm effect, along with stainless steel plinths and matt nickel handles.

I’m sure you’ll have been tuning into ITV This Morning to check out the lovely curvaceous Crème Lineaire kitchen.
So you may have noticed the beautiful worktops that compliment the range perfectly. Well, not only are they stylish but they are environmentally friendly!
The durable ECO worktops that This Morning selected are partly made from recycled consumer waste such as mirror, porcelain sinks, baths and tiles, and from industrial waste such as ash from power plants and stone scrap from quarries and workshops.
These products are bound together using an eco-friendly resin made from corn oil to create beautiful composite kitchen worktops. They come in 10 different colours and styles.
So, if you’re thinking about some new surfaces then definitely check out the latest eco-friendly trend!

We all know that storage space is always at a premium, especially in more compact kitchens. Fortunately Magnet has developed some cutting edge and stylish innovations to help maximise storage and make the space in the kitchen work harder.
LATERAL OPENING LARDER
The Lateral Opening Larder Unit offers an efficient and contemporary storage solution. The unique opening mechanism allows doors to open sideways to provide easy access in restricted spaces, such as galley kitchens.
