White Ceran Induction
Diva launched the first white ceran induction top available anywhere.
White ceran is a product designed to appeal to those who obsessively scrub their
hands until they bleed, who live in fear of microbes, germs, and lint and who
alert others of their imminent arrival by a wafting sanitized cloud of Purell . White Ceran, the
cooking surface most impossible to clean, targeted at those most likely to
commit suicide (pills of course) after the first pot mark.

A $100,000 Custom Range
Diva showed off a custom built range, destined post-show for a consumer kitchen,
but waylaid
temporarily for KBIS. Really more of a custom cabinet with a few cooking
appliances inserted than one huge cooktop appliance, build with loving care for
some New York securities trader or New England candle tycoon....one never knows.

2003 Kitchen & Bath Show Introductions
New Induction Cooktop. Maybe This
is the Year for Induction
Diva launched a 36" (5) station induction cooktop with (2) 2.0kW stations and
(3) 2.9 kW stations. Diva claims that induction is more powerful than any other
heating system on the market as it is 90% efficient vs 50% for gas, and 60% for
traditional electric. Diva throws in a 9 piece All-Clad cookware set as both a
perk and a necessity of induction cooking. The pots are the active
ingredient in induction cooking. Induction heats the pots directly without
heating the cooktop top. The wrong pots = a bad cooking experience. MSRP $5000.
We guess that these units are being supplied by De Dietrich, a European manufacturer.
