Whirlpool Corporation continues to turn out brands and product features homebuyers want to complement their lifestyles. KitchenAid brand appliances bring it all home, and are featured in the Show Village 2001 Home.

At the village, the spotlight is on two KitchenAid products, the Model KDRP407HSS 30" Dual-Fuel Range and the Model KUDS01DJSS Dishwasher.

Model KDRP407HSS -- The convection capability and generous 4.0 cu. ft. capacity of the new 30" ArchitectTM Series Pro LineTM Dual Fuel Range ensures accurate, even temperatures whether cooking for two or a crowd. Features include four 15,000 BTU sealed gas burners, 600 BTU simmer plate, cast iron full surface grates, convection/bake/broil/roast options, convection roasting rack, hidden bake element and a bread raising and keep-warm feature. Part of the expanded Architect Series of stainless steel appliances, Pro Line products are worthy of professional chefs.

Model KUDS01DJSS -- Continuing its tradition as a leader and innovator in dishwasher design, KitchenAid's new dishwasher series offers its largest capacity, greatest loading flexibility and quietest wash cycle ever. Super-functional and stylish, it has a choice of colors that include Cobalt Blue and Majestic Yellow.

With extra tall, stainless steel tubs and a 24% increase in usable capacity, the dishwasher can accommodate platters and cookie sheets and as many as 14, five-piece table settings as well as large dinner plates in both the bottom rack and adjustable top rack. An exclusive, advanced system of sensors, patented auto filtration and 3-spray arms provide superior cleaning with 20% less water consumption. A patented KitchenAid Whisper Quiet® sound insulation system is supplemented with a silent water fill function, extra quiet drain, and separate wash and drain motors for virtually silent operation.

KitchenAid continues to expand its product offering to include a full line of cooking, refrigeration, laundry and other major appliances to meet the needs of every builder's customer.
