And just like that, the holiday season is here. Are you ready? If you’re looking for a little extra help around the house, take a look at Miele. This week, we’re highlighting a few of our favorite  products that really pull their weight at this time busy of year.

Smart Technology: The Generation 6000 series (seen above) offers the some of the most technological and innovative ovens on the market. They include convection, speed, steam, combination and microwave cooking options, warming drawers and even coffee systems (one of Miele’s most popular collections.) Available in two styles, ContourLine (with stainless steel detailing) and PureLine (a sleek, jet-black design), allows you to choose the style that best suits your kitchen. And they’re available in new color ways, Truffle brown and Brilliant white. And no matter what you’re preparing, their new M Touch technology is like a digital sous chef with a menu of options that make cooking a breeze.

Dual Fuel: Miele’s ranges are also a customer favorite, especially the HR 1956 Dual Fuel model (seen below), which was in development for nearly 8 years and designed specifically for the American market. It offers intuitive controls like a pop-up touch panel, backlit knobs, sleek and sturdy professional styling, and the technology and power one expects of today’s appliances. The range includes a convection oven and the company’s MasterChef and MasterChef Plus systems that provide over 100 semi-automatic culinary programs and 15 fully automatic bread programs, respectively. A wireless roast probe and steam-burst settings ensure a perfectly cooked roast. The cooktop’s options, which can be configured in a variety of ways, include the M Pro dual stacked burner system (up to 19,500 BTUs and TrueSimmer setting), a high-power grill and an infrared griddle. With a variety of sizes (30, 36 and 48 inches), it’s right at home in any kitchen.

Imbibe in Style: Miele offers a wide selection of built-in and freestanding wine refrigerators that provide everything an oenophile could want: touch-control temperature zones, air filtration for odorless refrigeration, LED lighting, UV filters and tinted glass, and secure pullout racks. But did you also know about their exclusive SommelierSet? It’s the ultimate in practicality for wine connoisseurs—it’s perfect for entertaining small groups, and makes a great gift for the wine-lover in your life—and creates a built-in system perfect for decanting and tasting. It also offers storage for chilling white wine and champagne glasses.

Wash and Go: Miele’s smart dishwashers are also a true help when cooking for company. The EcoFlex allows you to shape the interior to suite special or fragile dishware, while the Generation 6000 Futura Dishwashers features easy “knock to open” technology. (Plus, this month you could receive $100 back on select models.)

A More Beautiful Holiday Table: One of our absolutely favorite household helpers is the Miele Fashion Master (seen above.) While it gives your wardrobe a polished, just-from-the-cleaners look all year round, it’s a dream for holiday linens. The premium ironing system offers a professional steam option, and folds up and rolls away when not in use, so it’s a space-saver too.
