Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) February 27, 2015 -- The Dacor®Discovery iQ™ 48-inch Dual-Fuel Range has won three prestigious awards within a matter of weeks, solidifying Dacor’s reputation and position as the leading manufacturer of ultra-premium kitchen appliances.

“We are pleased to be recognized by industry thought-leaders for our innovative products,” notes Dacor CEO Chuck Huebner. “As a design and technology-focused appliance manufacturer, we’ve spent 50 years reimagining what is possible to enhance and elevate the culinary experience.”
The Discovery iQ 48-inch Dual-Fuel Range was honored with the 2014 GOOD DESIGN™ Award from the Chicago Athenaeum Museum of Architecture and Design in December. At the same time, judges announced yet another Dacor award-winner: the Discovery® 36” Gas TouchTop™.

“The Discovery iQ product line has redefined the connected kitchen,” said Dacor President Steve Joseph. “With its ingenious and intuitive iQ Controller—which had already shared another good design award just for its beautiful user interface—it enables a whole new level of creativity and empowerment for the passionate chef.”
