3. Side-by-side coffee
Here a CM250 stainless-steel coffee machine and an oven from the 200 series from Gaggenau sit side by side, perfectly matched. The oven features 12 heating methods and the coffee machine produces all types of coffee and milk-based drinks possible with — most impressively — no warm-up phase. gaggenau.com
