#Top 5 innovative + functional appliances for your modern kitchen

If you’re a passionate lover of cooking, or you’ve recently kickstarted your cooking journey, and want to accelerate it even further then you’ve reached the right place. Having an efficient and streamlined cooking process is the key to preparing dishes that simply taste excellent! And the number one aid you need in having an effortless process is an arsenal of great kitchen appliances.  With the right kitchen tools and appliances, cooking can be an increasingly fun and simplified process. The right products can reduce your prep time in half, make the little cooking tasks much easier, and help you with tedious and complicated techniques. From the ultimate smoker to an aesthetic coffee machine that lets you experience the brewing process – these innovative and exceptional appliances are all you need in your kitchen.

1. The COit

The COit was designed by LG to function as a robot that can serve as a hub in your kitchen ecosystem. The robot can be easily used by both novices and professional chefs alike, and it functions as an autonomous device that shifts from focus from videography back to cooking – which is the primary aim behind entering a kitchen.

Why is it noteworthy?

The COit features a mountable rail with a circular display that is encircled by a projector, light, camera, and a smart grip. All the various modules can be moved around freely and independently on the small rail, covering the entire prep area or keeping them away from the fire and vapors.

What we like

• These modules – that clip onto the rail with built-in magnets – can be customized in orientation, depending on user requirements

What we dislike

• Food over the globe has such diversity, trying to standardize the recipe as per one instruction set would impact the diversity of that dish

2. Fender Amp Lunchbox

This super cute lunchbox is inspired by the Fender Amp whose lasting legacy is really something to consider! The brand Aquarius created their music-inclined lunchbox series around this amp, making it quite timeless and an absolute joy to carry around.

Why is it noteworthy?

The tin box features embossed dials on the front along with immaculate detailing of the Fender relief logo, the grill, and even the screws holding the front frame to the cabinet. The back, on the other hand, features a graphic of a 1/4″ jack and the Fender label… and that handle almost exactly copies the one seen on top of Fender’s amps!

What we like

• The amp’s naturally boxy shape lends itself perfectly to the lunchbox’s design too

What we dislike

• It is limited to people who love music or are musically inclined

3. The SMOKER-X

Measuring only 24 x 24 cm by 21 cm, the SMOKER-X allows you to smoke wherever you like whether indoors or outdoors! The smoker has been equipped with a compact body that works well with all kinds of stovetops. Whenever you feel the craving for a good smoked dish, you can quickly whip out the SMOKER-X to satisfy your appetite.

Why is it noteworthy?

The SMOKER-X is portable, and also extremely versatile, as it allows you to smoke any kind of food or ingredient. If you want a traditional hot barbecue, you can simply place some wood chips within the main frame, and light up a fire underneath. Equipped with a built-in thermometer, the smoker gives you a precise readout of how hot is it inside.

What we like

• The smoker’s unique design creates a narrow 6mm pathway for the smoke to pass through the saucer, making it possible to create all types of smoked foods

What we dislike

• Aesthetics are a bit boring and unassuming

4. Brew

This automatic coffee maker is called the Brew and it looks super cool. It not only helps you prepare your coffee, but also provides you with an entire sensory experience including the taste, aroma, and visuals.

Why is it noteworthy?

Because it has an open dripper, the aroma that comes from your coffee beans will spread within the room, which is what coffee lovers prefer. And since the top is open, you’ll be able to have a good view of the entire process, which includes an indicator light and then a series of chimes to add to the aural experience.

What we like

• Operating the machine is supposedly easy enough as you will be able to choose between regular, strong, and iced options

What we dislike

• The aesthetics of the coffee machine are boxy and traditional

5. Luvia Jug

The Luvia Jug lets you watch your water being purified! It’s built from glass and has a good-looking minimal appearance which makes it great to place on your tabletop or kitchen counter.

Why is it noteworthy?

Usually, water purifiers tend to look quite industrial, however, the Luvia has a rather decor-worthy appearance, with a compact catalytic carbon filter suspended in the center, and a chic bamboo lid, that helps you keep it covered.

What we like

• The jar has a double-walled construction with two levels – one for the water you pour in, and another for the water that gets purified by the Luvia jar
• Environment-friendly + somewhat recyclable design

What we dislike

• It seems to be easily breakable
