Miele Unveils Groundbreaking Innovations at IFA 2025

Under the motto “Miele now also Outdoors”, Miele will present numerous premieres at IFA 2025 in Berlin, including the modular outdoor kitchen “Dreams”, the intelligent cooking system “M Sense”, and the world premiere of the first steam drawer. These innovations expand Miele's portfolio with connected, convenient, and enjoyable cooking solutions for indoors and outdoors, ushering in a new era of cooking.

Global trends such as digitalisation and longevity, alongside the growing desire for customised, streamlined solutions, are shaping everyday life. Dr Reinhard Zinkann, Executive Director and Co-Proprietor at Miele, stated, "In an increasingly complex world, our customers are looking for reliable innovations that simplify everyday life and create special moments. This is exactly what we deliver with our new products at IFA. They are at the core of our Cooking Innovation Initiative and embody the highest standards in quality, design, innovation, and sustainability. In doing so, we are ushering in a new era of cooking.”

The First Miele Outdoor Kitchen "Dreams"

Miele is entering the growing "Outdoor Cooking" market segment with its new modular outdoor kitchen, "Dreams". Dr Axel Kniehl, Executive Director Marketing & Sales, commented, "More and more people around the world are discovering the outdoor living lifestyle. With Dreams, we are now bringing the special Miele cooking experience outdoors for the first time. This modular outdoor kitchen can be customised and combines minimalist design, intelligent technology, and Miele's premium standards."

The "Dreams" kitchen comprises individually combinable modules, including multiple gas barbecues, a hob, sink, and outdoor refrigerator, supported by over 60 coordinated accessories. A key highlight is the "Fire Pro IQ", an intelligent gas barbecue that automatically regulates temperatures and grills dishes independently, ensuring perfect results with minimal monitoring. It can be controlled via an integrated display or the Miele app and features an AutoClean mode.

"M Sense" Cookware: Preventing Overcooking

Miele introduces "M Sense" intelligent cookware, designed to prevent incidents like boiled-over pasta water or burnt steak. Featuring integrated touch controls and up to three temperature sensors, it works in conjunction with the new KM 8000-generation induction hobs. This multi-patented system automatically regulates cooking power for precise, stress-free results. As Dr Markus Miele, Executive Director and Co-Proprietor, explained, "M Sense is our promise for more joy in cooking. Nothing burns. Nothing boils over. – just more time for what really matters. With intelligent sensors and intuitive operation, we make cooking easier, safer, and smarter.”

Steam Drawer: A World Premiere for Versatile Cooking

The new steam drawer marks a world premiere at IFA, offering new possibilities for kitchen planning and high-level cooking experiences. Its minimalist design and 14 cm height allow it to adapt to various kitchen concepts. It forms a unique 3-in-1 solution when combined with a compact oven with microwave, enabling baking, reheating, and steam cooking. With DualSteam technology and over 100 automatic programmes, it effortlessly prepares vegetables, sous-vide dishes, and everyday meals. The capacity is sufficient for up to four people.

Dr Reinhard Zinkann noted, "The new steam drawer is our response to the growing demand for multifunctional solutions for kitchens with limited space. In combination with a compact oven, it is possible to prepare entire menus in two separate cooking compartments with Miele's renowned quality."

Further Highlights and Innovations at IFA

Miele also presented other innovations, including a new downdraft extractor with integrated ambient lighting and large-format MasterCool refrigerators. In floor care, the cordless Triflex HX3 Plus Aqua offers versatility as both a standard and wet cleaner.

Digitalisation, AI, and Smart Extras: Miele is integrating digitalisation and AI into the kitchen. The "FoodView" feature in MasterCool refrigerators allows users to check contents remotely via the Miele app. In ovens, Artificial Intelligence via "Smart Food ID" automatically recognises 50 dishes and adjusts settings for perfect preparation. The Miele app serves as a central hub for appliances and services, with features like CookAssist guiding users through recipes. The Consumption Dashboard provides transparent data on appliance usage.

Sustainability and Quality Commitment

Miele is demonstrating its commitment to sustainable innovation with its "Energy Heroes" initiative, featuring washing machine and dishwasher models with significantly improved energy efficiency. The company's IFA trade fair presence also highlights circularity, with a resource-efficient stand made of reusable materials.

Regarding quality, Miele is introducing a "Miele Motor Guarantee" – a 25-year guarantee on motors for washing machines and dryers, launching in Germany on October 1, 2025. This builds on Miele's long-standing focus on high-quality products with exceptional service life, exemplified by washing machines tested for up to 20 years.
