Smeg Fab28 Refrigerator: Coming to the U.S. by Tim Yu
Previously only available in the U.K., aesthetes based stateside can now rejoice with Smeg's first showroom opening in the U.S. soon.
With looks that are more '50s icebox than white-beast refrigerator, the Fab28 adds a bit of vintage style to your kitchen appliance line-up. Smooth rounded corners add to the Rocakabilly feel, while the single lever door comes hinged on either side. An antibacterial interior features five glass shelves, two compartments and the freezer's at the top. At less than five feet tall and 23" wide, it's well-suited for tight spaces.
Available in 10 retro colors, visit Smeg USA for more info and purchasing details or contact them here.

Her collection has grown and features works by several designers, spanning wallpaper (handmade, embroidered, trompe l'oeil, kits, appliques...), lighting, accessories, children's furniture and accessories.

A Good Reason To Get Your Clothes Dirty
Kenmore HE4T is one of the best-looking machines on the market. It has a very retro vibe with snappy colors with sophisticated names (ok, maybe they took a cue from J. Crew): Sedona, Bisque and Pacific Blue are just a few. But most impressive is the actual girth of the interior – the HE4T claims it can clean 23 large bath towels in one...

Toaster Challenge
The household toaster serves a simple purpose, but some models do it better than others. At CH we take this responsibility very seriously, and in hopes of separating the best from the average, we recently pitted four models from different manufacturers in a head-to-heat toast-off and recorded our highly subjective results. The toasters we used were the Alessi SG68, Viking VT200, Breville Smart Toaster BTA820XL...

Famos Peeler
Sometimes the elegance of an object is perfectly on par with its level of performance. Such is the case with the German-made Famos Peeler, which features a sturdy blade that's ideal for the hard stuff (parmesean, chocolate) but works equally well on potatoes and apples too. Far superior to all the gimmicky "design" peelers out there, the shark fin-like blade is an added bonus...
