« It’s funny, as I thought I knew who made the best fridges but in reality the products we had been looking at aren’t even close to Sub-Zero, who really do manufacture a high-end product with great design and well thought out engineering. Most importantly, you can tell a lot of consideration has gone into the consumer, as it’s just so easy to use. From the integral ice and water dispenser, to the way the internal drawers open and close it’s all just…perfect.
During my racing career I have always admired the designers and engineers who get the very best out of their cars. It’s clear to see that the same dedication and passion runs through the Sub-Zero team. I never thought I would be so excited about a fridge! »

Ulrika Jonsson is a Swedish born television presenter who first became famous as a weather presenter.
Together with her husband Brian Monet, she has recently moved into a new family home in South Oxfordshire which sports a state of the art Sub Zero & Wolf kitchen! Ulrika is a keen gardener and has been an avid cook since she was 10 years old.
When asked about her relationship with food Ulrika says that her love of cooking was established when she moved to England in 1979. “My stepfather taught me all the foundations and I quickly developed a love for Italian and French food. Instead of going out at weekends when I was a teenager, I was at home baking and creating a new recipe every weekend.” She says there’s nothing quite as depressing as an empty fridge!
Aged 17 Ulrika spent a month in France on a cookery course and in her late 20s visited Italy to do the same. In 1999 she took part in the first ever Celebrity MasterChef alongside Rick Wakeman and Jenny Agutter with judges Raymond Blanc and a rookie Jamie Oliver.
The family built a new house, and the most important room in the house is the kitchen. For Ulrika and her family, the one area of no compromise was the kitchen appliances.
Ulrika on Wolf:
“Wolf not only makes the most stylish hobs and cookers, they work magic! If you’re serious about cooking, you cannot help but be seduced by the solidity and the functionality. There’s nothing better on the market.”
Ulrika on Sub-Zero:
“As for refrigeration, I have loved Sub-Zero for years. Living in the country, it’s crucial for me to have a fridge and freezer which keeps food fresh for as long as possible. Knowing Sub-Zero technology will prevent my food from deteriorating is unbeatable.”
