In 1921 a man named Heinrich Berndes started a cookware company in Arnsberg, Germany, with his wife, Sophie. Inspired by the joy of cooking, Berndes decided it was time for chefs the world over – both amateur and professional – to have nothing less than quality cookware. He took it upon himself to lead the way.

Today, the Berndes brand is known as a leader in innovative cookware. From its classic Tradition line to its sleek, new Tricion brand, Berndes is committed to pioneering the way of the future in an industry that’s inundated with mass-produced products.

Fireplaces are phenomenal to use during those chilly days by all, unfortunately no one enjoys cleaning them either. Ashes are such fine particles that they tend to go everywhere when trying to scoop them up into the garbage. The mess is only part of the problem as the coals can typically remain hot for many days adding to the difficulty of cleaning. Most household vacuums can’t withstand the heat to vacuum the ashes and there aren’t any commercial vacuums either. The Ash vacuum is designed to handle the heat from stoves and fireplaces while cleaning without any ashes flying around the room!

The Loveless Ash Vacuum is one of the safest ways of cleaning stoves and fireplaces. The entire vacuum is made of metal to withstand the highest of temperatures. The fire resistant filter is so fine that no ash will escape back into the room. Cleaning the filter is simple so as to allow the entire cleaning process to be completed without having to stop and clean the filter. The machine is designed to also hold up to 3 gallons of debris safely and securely. The manufacturer did not design the system to vacuum up wood or larger coal as they recommend leaving that to burn later. The unit operates very quietly and comes in several different styles that look appealing when left out. The device has many fire resistant plastic accessories to allow for easier cleaning based on the area size. Loveless designed the Cheetah series and the more expensive Cougar series which is the same though the noise level is much less.
