Kitchen gadgets seem to be one of the most abundant kinds of cool gadgets. There are just so many things you can do in the kitchen that a gadget will help you with. If you know of any new kitchen gadgets that you think we should report on please let us know.
One of the things that I love about airline travel is the ice cubes in the drinks they serve. I always liked the cylindrical shaped cubes that were somehow hollowed out in the middle. Somehow, they were always better than the cubes that you crack out of the ice trays at home.
It appears that a Japanese company has cornered the market on unusual ice cube shapes with the Ice Mold, a spherical ice cube maker.
The Barbegrill will definitely confound the older generation, being a mini barbecue grill where one is able to control its heat level so that stuff like incinerated sausages will be a thing of the past.
Thanks to a variable infra-red heat control system, this neat stainless steel grill is capable of cooking food to perfection without cremating it. It can even toast bread and simmer soup (assuming the soup is in a saucepan, of course). Amazing! Fueled by mini A4 Butane Battery gas cartridges (available from all good camping/outdoor stores, and quite a few mediocre ones) the Barbegrill is ideal for campers, festival fans and barbecue buffs. You can even use it indoors, as long as you’re in a well-ventilated space. Built to last and easy to clean, this brilliant cooking companion is also incredibly safe as it features a pressure-activated gas cut-off device.
The Barbegrill is truly one innovative device that brings together the best of both worlds of barbecuing as well as grilling. Firebox is carrying it for £29.95, making it an ideal purchase before the summer arrives.
Think about how much time we spend in the kitchen. While eating three meals a day at home nowadays is definitely not the norm, a tremendous amount of time is still spent in your homes eatery. It could even be called the heart of the home (and you can imagine which organ the bathroom is.)
But despite so much time spent in one area, there have been relatively few technological changes made to the kitchen in the last 50 years or so. The Izona kitchen line from Fisher & Paykel plan on revolutionizing the kitchen with their new VentSurface, CookSurface, and CoolDrawer products.

Every once in a while, some device comes along that makes me say, “That is so obvious! I should have thought of that. Then I could have got rich off of the patent”.
Such is the case with LG’s LTM9000, which is simply a microwave oven with a toaster attached to it. Considering that most of us use the microwave and the toaster in the same room, it really isn’t rocket science to put the two together. I’m sure you’re probably wondering why you didn’t think of such an obvious improvement to the kitchen.
The LG LTM9000 has 900 watts of power for the microwave, and about 800 watts for the toaster. The toaster can toast at nine levels, which will hopefully be better than what most toasters can do. I don’t know about you, but my toaster has two settings: barely warm and charcoal black.
I don’t do a lot of cooking in the kitchen, mostly because I don’t have the patience and I’m just too picky of an eater. Most of the things I like can be made by using the microwave or boiling water, so I stick to what I like. However, if you do enjoy the culinary arts, you might be interested in this handy little measuring device.
I’m not a morning person. I never have been, and I doubt that I ever really will. I’m the kind of guy that gets up, showers, dresses and still looks and acts like a zombie. The last thing I need in the morning is some way to make my routine more dangerous, because lets face it, I’m clumsy enough when I’m not groggy. Needless to say, this toaster won’t be making its way into my kitchen any time soon.
Most office workers will be able to tell you - coffee is the elixir of life, never mind water. A hot cup of joe is the perfect tonic to kickstart a day, especially during those dreary Mondays. The Javabot brings coffee making to the 21st century, delivering your favorite blend of seven beans, including the way they are roasted, the ground and temperature at which the coffee is brewed, all in a mere half a minute. This makes the Javabot the first and only walk-in coffee machine in the world, but should this idea catch on, expect different varieties to start making an appearance throughout offices (and maybe even rich homes) worldwide. No better way to keep the morale up than by pampering their stomachs, eh?
Toddlers are quite a challenge when it comes to feeding time, which is where the My Plate-Mate for Kids comes in.
My Plate-Mate is a children’s teaching aid for eating that can be used with any 8″- 9 ½ ” plate. Imagine a product that could assist a toddler in learning how to eat with a utensil and plate, without the usual mess and clean up! Well, My Plate-Mate does that…It helps toddlers learn how to eat like a big kid, while minimizing the mess that comes with toddler meals. Children gain self confidence and are less frustrated during meals with My Plate-Mate.
Well, I guess anything that helps parents have an easier time when feeding their toddlers is always a plus point in my book.
