A masterpiece of industrial design that not only revolutionized coffee brewing but also set a benchmark for modern domestic design. The Braun KF 20 Aromaster, designed in 1972 by Florian Seiffert, is not just a coffee maker—it’s a piece of history and a perfect example of how functionality and aesthetics can merge seamlessly.
With its tower-like vertical design, optimized for kitchen spaces, and its distinctive deep yellow-orange casing, this coffee maker embodies the essence of 1970s design. Every line, every detail reflects Braun's innovative approach to blending practicality with beauty. Its cultural significance has transcended generations, earning its place in museums and private collections as an undisputed icon of 20th-century design.
This specific unit is in exceptional condition, featuring all-original parts except for the glass carafe. The original carafe is unfortunately not included; However, a brand-new replacement carafe has been purchased specifically for this machine and has never been used. The original wiring remains intact, ensuring authenticity and functionality. The warming plate at the base, which was originally black, has faded slightly over time, but this does not affect its operation.
It is important to note that this is a coffee maker since 1972. Evidently, 53 years have passed since its production, and while it remains functional, it does not perform like a modern coffee machine. This is an item of historical and aesthetic value, perfect for collectors or enthusiasts of design and vintage appliances.
