4 kitchen appliance gift ideas for Christmas

Christmas is well on its way and it’s time for many of us to start thinking about the gifts we’ll be getting for our loved ones this year.

For many budding chefs and veteran food aficionados alike, a kitchen appliance is the perfect present that helps them get more from their favourite hobby, or simply makes their lives much easier in the home.

Fortunately, there are all kinds of different appliances out there to suit all sizes of kitchens and all levels of ability when it comes to cooking. Here at Haier, we’ve got a complete range, including everything from high-tech blenders to wine coolers, so you’ll be sure to find what you’re looking for for your recipient.

To help inspire you, we’ve put together five of our top suggestions for what kitchen appliance gifts you could go for – read on to find out more:

Kettles

We all enjoy sitting down after a long day with a nice cup of tea, or starting things off in the morning with a steaming cup of coffee – and because of that, our kettles can get worn down over time and worse yet, build up limescale that just won’t come off.

So if you’re set on buying your friends a new appliance this Christmas that can fit in anywhere in the modern kitchen, a new kettle might be just the thing. This is especially true when you consider how many of us just forget to replace our kettles, with many homes still having models from years or even decades ago.

Modern kettles are sleek, energy efficient and boast an array of innovative features designed to make your life easier. The Haier Kettle I-Master Series 5 lets you choose from a range of different temperatures for your water to get to, perfect for creating the perfect tea blends or coffee

Blenders

For those friends who love to cook, and like to experiment with different foods, sauces, smoothies and soups, blenders make for wonderful gift ideas to help them expand their gastronomic repertoire. 

Blenders are just the thing to save household chefs the time they spend chopping ingredients for fillings and liquid based dishes like soups and gazpachos. Their quick action takes out one of the more menial tasks in food preparations, leaving the recipient with more time to focus on the best and most enjoyable parts of cooking.

There’s more to it than just the time savings, however. Blenders help open up recipes to new options with different settings allowing chefs to try different textures and bring out different flavours with everything from nuts and pulses to fruit and veg for smoothies. And they won’t take up too much room so they don’t cause any inconvenience.

Some models, like the Haier I-Master Series 5, also include innovative features like the self-cleaning function – which makes cleaning the blades and jar quick and simple.

Multi-beverage maker

Almost everyone loves a hot beverage, whether it’s a hot chocolate, a cup of tea or a mug of coffee to get their day going. So who wouldn’t enjoy the gift of an appliance that does it all for them, quickly and easily in one place?

That’s what makes the multi-beverage maker such an excellent choice for gift-givers this Christmas. These fantastic appliances can make a range of hot drinks with just the touch of a button, made to your temperature and taste preferences. 

The immediate benefit is convenience. Multi-beverage makers cut out the whole process of putting together your hot beverage, with all the ingredients added by the appliance itself. They also have safety features included, preventing your drinks from becoming overheated and from posing a danger to the drinker.

Finally certain multi-beverage makers can offer a more sustainable solution to other counterparts. The Haier I-Master Series 5 uses only natural ingredients you can provide yourself, instead of single-use plastic pods that other makers use – so you can be sure you’re reducing waste with every cup.

Air fryer

Air fryers are compact and easy-to-use appliance gifts that come with a major advantage for those of your friends and family who are more health-conscious: they present a healthier alternative to cooking food and preparing meals.

Since air fryers use hot air to cook food instead of using oils, they offer a solution with less fat and less calories than traditional cooking methods – which means those who are pursuing a healthier lifestyle can still enjoy a lot of the food they love to make.

Like the other ideas on this list, air fryers are compact and easy to move, which means they can fit in any kitchen. And they also save energy for those looking to bring down their carbon footprint.

The Haier I-Master Series 5 gives all of the above without sacrificing the flexibility of cooking. It provides five different functions, including Fry, Bake, Roast, Grill, Dehydrate, Slow Cook, Reheat, Defrost & Yoghurt, so you know that whatever you’re making, you’ll get it at its best.
