Appliance Manufacturer & Brand Information

Founded in 1847, Siemens started producing vacuum cleaners and small appliances, it wasn't until 1932 that they produced their first washing machine. In 1964 Siemens started producing dishwashers then they alos produced the first pyrolitic self cleaning oven in 1970 and the first condenser dryer in 1976.

For some years now Siemens has been owned by the Bosch Group which became the Bosch Siemens Group or, BSH when the companies merged in 1967.

Siemens has traditionally been an upmarket brand and this is reflected in the pricing of the products and they tend to focus on good build quality coupled with interesting and, sometimes, innovative, designs. The "Porche" small appliance range was one such example as is the new wall mounted "Lift-O-Matic" oven about which little is known other than the name strikes us as a bit cheesy for such a supposed upmarket product.

Some Siemens products are still German made however and do tend to be higher rated by the trade than the run of the mill Bosch machines. This is however reflected in the price.

It should also be noted that there is a large commonality in components used with the much cheaper range of Bosch prodcuts.
