1916
In the year that Thermador was founded, kitchens were workrooms without a lot of frills or excesses. Even though the first electric refrigerator had just been introduced, only about 10% of the homes in the country had electricity at all, and those that did only had enough to power their lights, not appliances, too!
So, ranges were free-standing metal behemoths that were either wood or coal burning, and some of the newer ones ran on natural gas. These stoves heated the water for the home and provided any hot water that a home had, too.
