Big Chill Appliances Bring a Slice of Americana into Today's Kitchens
Boulder, Co. (PRWEB) July 01, 2014 -- Big Chill, the distinctly innovative appliance manufacturer, brings home a taste of Americana just in time to celebrate the country’s birthday. From its start up story and ‘can-do’ attitude to its rugged good looks, Big Chill is an all-American classic.
Started in 2001 by Kansas native Orion Creamer and his uncle Thom Vernon, the duo – in the spirit of true American entrepreneurship – saw a niche for a small company with a big idea in the home appliance market.
“I remember building our first retro style refrigerator in my uncle’s garage when his neighbor walked by,” Creamer explained. “He said, ‘That is the coolest thing I have ever seen,’ and he cut us a check right there.”
“The Old ’57 Chevy was an inspiration for the original Big Chill design,” said Creamer. “It’s a purely American look.”
Big Chill is reinventing kitchen style with a complete line of kitchen appliances in fresh, original designs that are modern-made classics. Advocating retro, Eisenhower-era Americana designs and a streamlined business model, Big Chill took kitchens by storm in 2003 with its one-of-a-kind, ‘appliance as art’ aesthetic. Stunning retro-style appliances available in more than 200 colors, as well as custom colors, the goods evoke the spirit of a bygone era and are a true taste of Americana. With an eye toward the future, Creamer has applied this design philosophy to a new Big Chill Pro line. Maintaining their distance from the drab boxes and standoffish steel of most appliances, the Pro line combines the modern lines and serious performance coveted by home cooks with (of course) bold colors.
Big Chill products are designed in the U.S. With stoves manufactured in Reading, Pa. and fridges and dishwashers assembled in Boulder, Co., Big Chill creates American jobs, supports the local economy and ensures the highest quality possible for its products.
The inspiration that founded Big Chill continues to drive the company forward. "Whether you prefer midcentury charm or modern sophistication, thanks to Big Chill, homeowners everywhere can have beautiful and unique choices,” said Creamer.
