The entries for the 2014 Good Design Awards (formerly the Australian International Design Awards) are in and once again the appliance industry has proven to be a big supporter of the accolade.

A number of brands have entered the competition multiple times, including De’Longhi with eight applications, Electrolux with seven, Breville with six (including the 2013 Appliance Retailer Appliance of the Year, The Oracle) and Nespresso with three. The list of appliance entrants reads like a who’s who of the market and it gives a good idea of which products the various brands are most proud of.
