A New Species is Here: Miele unveils its first Outdoor Cooking range in Australia

Miele is extending its renowned "Forever Better" philosophy outdoors for the first time with the introduction of the 'Dreams' Outdoor Kitchen to the Australian market. Combining a timeless modular design, intelligent grilling technology and exceptional craftsmanship, Miele's Outdoor Kitchen reimagines the way Australians cook, entertain and connect outdoors.

Representing Miele's first venture into the premium outdoor living category, the launch marks a defining moment for the brand. Building on more than 127 years of engineering expertise, the 'Dreams' Outdoor Kitchen is fully customisable, seamlessly adapting to the way people live while simultaneously bringing Miele's signature precision, innovation, and timeless design to the outdoors.

Miele has chosen the ancient Daintree Rainforest – described by David Attenborough as his "favourite place on Earth" – as the setting for its Australian debut.

The world's oldest tropical rainforest, this extraordinary landscape provides a fitting backdrop for a range that celebrates the connection between exceptional food, thoughtful design and outdoor living.

To bring the ‘Dreams’ Outdoor Kitchen to life in the Daintree, Miele has partnered with acclaimed Australian chef Neil Perry. Recognised globally as Australia’s best steak chef, Perry’s mastery of fire and ingredient-led cooking makes him a natural partner to showcase Miele's innovative new category. United by a shared commitment to craftsmanship, his approach perfectly complements the Outdoor Kitchen's intelligent technology and precision engineering, delivering consistently exceptional grilling results.

“Outdoor cooking has traditionally involved a degree of compromise, but Miele's ‘Dreams’ Outdoor Kitchen changes that. It brings the precision, consistency and control you'd expect from a premium indoor kitchen into an outdoor setting, giving you complete confidence to cook at the highest level,” says Neil Perry.

“When you have that level of precision, you can spend less time worrying about the cooking and more time enjoying the people around you. There's no better place to introduce it than the Daintree, where exceptional ingredients and an extraordinary landscape speak for themselves.”

Celebrated Australian designer Collette Dinnigan, a long-time admirer of Miele and its design philosophy, will join the launch celebrations in the Daintree. Collette is also the first official owner of the Miele ‘Dreams’ Outdoor Kitchen in Australia, having chosen to include it in the renovation of her Sydney harbourside home.

"I've always admired Miele's approach to design and innovation, and when I heard they were launching their first Outdoor Cooking range, I knew it would be something special," says Collette.

"What I love most is its versatility. The collection allows you to create an outdoor space that feels entirely personal, while maintaining the same level of craftsmanship and functionality you'd expect indoors. It's a space designed for gathering, entertaining and enjoying throughout every season."

Designed for Open-Air Living

Designed to grow with its owners rather than define them, the 'Dreams' Outdoor Kitchen reimagines the traditional outdoor kitchen as an evolving living space. Whether for a city balcony or an expansive outdoor entertaining space, its modular design allows each kitchen to be individually configured and expanded over time through more than 50 interchangeable components and accessories, adapting to changing homes, lifestyles and entertaining needs.

At its heart is the new Fire Pro Grill, Miele's advanced outdoor cooking technology. Developed to remove uncertainty from outdoor cooking, the Fire Pro Grill combines precision engineering with intelligent technology, including five integrated temperature sensors, assisted cooking programmes and seamless connectivity through the Miele App. Together, these technologies provide real-time cooking guidance and remote monitoring, allowing hosts to spend less time managing the grill and more time with their guests.

The Australian launch follows the global debut of Miele's Outdoor Cooking range earlier this year and marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter for the brand, extending its renowned commitment to design, craftsmanship and intelligent innovation to the outdoors.

"The launch of Miele's Outdoor Cooking range marks an exciting new chapter for Miele in Australia,” says Lisa Saunders, Miele’s Marketing Director for Australia & New Zealand.

“As a country defined by its appreciation for outdoor living, Australia is the ideal setting for a fully integrated Outdoor Kitchen that reimagines the way people gather, cook, and entertain. Combining quality craftsmanship with modular design flexibility, the Miele 'Dreams' Outdoor Kitchen delivers precision performance allowing homeowners to create sophisticated outdoor entertaining environments.”
