Smeg's design lines
Smeg gives each family of appliances a distinct style and then builds matching ovens, hobs, hoods and drawers around it. These are the lines you will come across most.
| Line | Style | What it covers |
| 50's Style | Rounded and retro, in pastels, cream, red, black and white, plus the odd decorated special edition. | Fridges, fridge freezers and mini fridges, and freestanding dishwashers. |
| Victoria | Traditional, with chrome trims. Slate grey, cream, black or steel, depending on the appliance. | 60cm cookers, ranges from 90 to 110cm, and matching ovens, compact ovens, hobs, hoods and warming drawers. |
| Linea | Flat glass, a slim handle and almost no detail, mostly in black. | Hobs, warming drawers, microwaves, and both standard and compact ovens. |
| Classic | Plain, timeless stainless steel. | Wine coolers, warming drawers, hobs and microwaves, plus single, double and compact ovens. |
| Opera | Professional-looking ranges in stainless steel for serious cooks. | Ranges from 90 up to 150cm, with hoods to suit. |
Alongside these sit plainer designs for fitted kitchens, including integrated refrigeration and dishwashers that disappear behind your cabinet doors.

Choosing a range cooker
Smeg ranges start at 90cm and go up to 150cm; for an ordinary cooker space, look at the Smeg cookers instead. Victoria suits a country or traditional kitchen, Opera brings a professional look, and Smeg's contemporary ranges keep things clean and simple. Go for gas if you enjoy cooking on a flame, or induction for speed and a top that wipes clean. The Smeg range cookers page sets the styles, widths and fuels side by side.
Completing the kitchen
Each line is designed as a set, so matching is straightforward. Put a Victoria hood in the same colour over a Victoria range. For a fitted kitchen, stack a compact oven and warming drawer beside a single oven from the same line, and set a matching hob into the worktop. A retro fridge freezer or a Smeg dishwasher rounds the room off.
Before you buy
- Measure. For a range, measure the gap in all three directions. For built-in pieces, check the housing against the installation sizes on the product page.
- Check the supplies. Any gas hob or gas-topped range needs a Gas Safe registered engineer to connect it. Most double ovens, induction ranges and large induction hobs are hard-wired to a cooker circuit, a job for a qualified electrician.
- Pick the hinge. 50's Style fridges are made with the door hung on the left or the right, so check which way it should open in your kitchen.
- Leave breathing space. Freestanding fridges need a little air around them; the installation guide gives the gaps.
- Check the way in. Ranges and large fridge freezers are heavy and bulky, so measure doorways and corners on the way to the kitchen.

Is Smeg Italian?
Yes. Smeg is a family-owned company with its base in Guastalla, northern Italy.
What is Smeg 50's Style?
Smeg's retro line, drawing on 1950s design: curvy fridges and fridge freezers in bold colours and pastels, with a freestanding dishwasher to match. The fridges are made with left-hand or right-hand hinges.
Are 50's Style fridge freezers frost free?
Some of them. Others are manual defrost and need clearing of ice from time to time. Each product page tells you which type it is.
How do Smeg Victoria and Opera ranges differ?
Victoria is the traditional style, in colours such as cream, black and slate grey. Opera is Smeg's professional-looking range in stainless steel, and its biggest models reach 150cm.
Is there a Smeg hood to match my range?
Yes. Smeg makes hoods for its range designs, Victoria and Opera included. Pick one no narrower than the range from our Smeg extractors page.
