Fuego 01 Grill Designed by Robert Brunner is Awarded Gold IDEA
The highly-acclaimed Fuego 01 grill from Fuego North America has received a 2007 Gold IDEA (International Design Excellence Awards).

The IDEA program, cosponsored by Business Week and the Industrial Designers Society of America (IDSA), recognizes excellence in industrial design and cultivates understanding about industrial design's impact on the economy and standard of living.

The coveted Gold award is the highest honor recognizing cutting-edge products, ranging everywhere from house wares to scientific equipment to consumer electronics.

As the name implies, IDEA is truly an internationally recognized competition, with 29 countries submitting products in 2007.

This year, the coveted gold was bestowed upon only 20 of 1,691 entries, emphasizing the strength of the Fuego design.

The Fuego 01 combines patented technology with sleek design and unsurpassed functionality to propel the idea of outdoor entertaining to a new, distinctively modern social experience.

Fuego's Patented Quick Change Drawer System allows the user to alternate cooking with gas, gas-fired infrared and traditional charcoal.

The grill boasts the industry's first cooking island configuration, both re-introducing the "grill master" to the party and creating, in the words of Fuego chief designer Robert Brunner, "a social hub for the backyard."
