ANAHEIM, Calif., Dec. 19, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hestan—industry recognized reinventor of the commercial kitchen and, more recently, the outdoor grill, today announced its upcoming line of indoor kitchen appliances for home chefs. The line, which will include ranges, rangetops, cooktops, ovens, refrigeration, dishwashers, and ventilation, will be available for purchase in the summer of 2018.
“We are very excited about our latest endeavor,” said company founder Stanley Cheng. “Hestan products withstand the rigorous and precise demands of some of the most discerning Michelin-starred restaurants, including the kitchens of culinary legend, Chef Thomas Keller. Our engineers have parlayed this same level of quality and attention to detail to our new residential indoor line.”
