Doing Things Differently, One Appliance at a Time
A maverick in the appliance industry, Big Chill was founded in 2001 in Boulder, Colorado with one simple mission: to bring the kitchen's powerhouses out of hiding and into the spotlight. Built from the ground up by Orion Creamer and his uncle Thom Vernon, Big Chill was conceived as an alternative to conventional appliance design. "We simply wanted to steer clear of the dreaded 'white box' fridges and camouflaged dishwashers that were the norm in kitchens," says Creamer.    

Big Chill found a niche for products that had a retro look, but delivered state-of-the-art cooking and cooling capabilities. The new Pro Series leverages the company's design chops, and expands its artistic approach to define a new era of appliance design. With an eye on design and a knack for redefining classics, the new Pro Series is a perfect synthesis of performance and aesthetics, and an indication of the initiative and originality of design that is the hallmark of the Big Chill brand. 

A New Era for Appliance Design
After a decade in the business, Big Chill is propelling artful appliances toward a new future with the introduction of the Big Chill Pro line. The design strikes an appealing balance between the overpowering industrial look of commercial equipment and the extreme minimalism of Euro-influenced products. Straightforward lines and eye-catching materials are unmistakably modern.

The Big Chill Pro Range provides great performance and sought after features. The 30-inch model has four easy-to-clean sealed burners: an 18,000 BTU power burner; 15,000 BTU and 10,000 BTU burners; and a gentle 6,000 BTU simmer burner. The spacious oven fits a full sized sheet pan and features convection baking, a ceramic infrared broiler and full-extension racks. The Pro range features a stainless steel cooktop and front-mounted control panel; easy-grip analog knobs allow precision temperature settings.

Topping off the range is Big Chill's new line of Pro hoods.  Kitchen ventilation should never be under-rated; with the largest filter capacity in the industry, these 30-inch kitchen hoods perform as well as those in commercial kitchens. Effective and stylish, these stainless steel Pro hoods – with dishwasher safe stainless steel filters, variable blower control and commercial grade 18-gauge 300 steel construction.

The Big Chill Pro Refrigerator is the perfect blending of design and quality. Crisp modern lines, stamped metal body, silver trims and bold colors make functionality seem fabulous. This new-age 18.5 cubic foot fridge comes complete with gallon door storage, a spacious bottom freezer and two half-width crisper drawers. Fit for the modern kitchen, it is energy-star rated and ready for prime time.

Whether you prefer midcentury charm or modern sophistication, every kitchen can afford to bring their appliances out of hiding thanks to Big Chill. It's not a luxury—it's a lifestyle.  For more information or to purchase a Big Chill Pro Range, visit www.bigchill.com.
