From the beginning a good product design was important to us at Otto Wilde. Because we think that the perfect grilling experience needs multiple components. That includes the right temperature, first-class meat and a grill that brings joy to those operating it. That’s why Otto’s O.F.B. combines uncompromising functionality with aesthetic industrial design.

The jury of the German Design Award, which awarded the O.F.B. for its intuitive operability and stylish look, shared this perception: “Otto’s O.F.B. allows you to grill like a professional. The operation of the grill is extremely easy und self-explanatory. A solid device design that promises perfect grilling results “, explained the jury the awarding in the category Excellent Product Design.
An acknowledgment that fills especially Otto with pride. “From the beginning of the development we were focusing on the simple handling of the O.F.B.”, says the name giver of the family business and technology expert behind the O.F.B. “Both burners can be adjusted separately, and the height of the grill grate can be adjusted precisely and flexibly using the lever. Furthermore, it only takes one touch to remove the top unit, so you can easily clean the grill from the inside. We are thus especially pleased that the thought-out product design and the high-quality workmanship of the Over Fired Broiler is now honored with the German Design Award.”
