The Mini-Line company, importers of Kav Halavan domestic
electrical appliances, announce their new King and Philco
ovens which have especially adapted to the cooking and baking
needs of the chareidi sector. They have two completely
separate baking compartments and a special Shabbos device.
These two new entries take their place alongside the Bellers
stove and oven line that has long been specially designed and
marketed to the chareidi community.
Eli Brick, strategic and planing director of the company,
told Yated Ne'eman that both the King C2K and the
Philco P2K are "the most advanced of their kind: both from a
technological standpoint and from their conformance to
halachic demands. This is the ultimate oven for the chareidi
sector, in its classic, clean design and its fair price. For
Pesach, the King oven will be on sale at the reduced price of
NIS 3,300; the Philco at NIS 3200."
In honor of the new ovens, Mini Line gave Ezer Mitzion five
King ovens to be distributed among its volunteers.
Mini Line's directors note that the baking compartments of
these ovens are totally separate. In addition, a metal plate
under the upper door prevents the penetration of vapors from
the lower oven. There are also two separate vents for the
vapors. This means that the two compartments can be used
simultaneously to bake meat and milk dishes.
The ovens were also designed for use on Shabbos. The
thermostat can be neutralized so that the heating bodies can
operate on a continual basis. The oven contains a special
"Shabbos state" and can be used as a Shabbos hot plate. It
also has a special metal cover above the controls for use on
Shabbos.
The Bellers line of stoves has featured ovens with separate
compartments for several years. This line also has the
singular virtue that some of their models are certified to
meet kashrus requirements by the BaDaTz of Shearis
Yisroel.
