While normally I’d suggest avoiding those single-use coffee pod machines, since you don’t know when the beans were roasted or ground, I’ve a feeling I’ll give the WMF1 a pass simply because of the excellent design. Intended to product a single cup of coffee, the WMF1 has a distinctive niche for the supplied mug and a straightforward loading system.
If you’ve ever been tempted by a touchscreen kitchen PC, but can’t afford the high prices most off-the-shelf units command, then sidekick-x’s nifty Eee PC hack may fit the bill. He took a normal ASUS netbook, cracked it open, fitted a touchscreen layer and then integrated it neatly into a kitchen cupboard.

It’s time to unpack the wedding china and start cutting the crusts off your sandwiches; as soon as whatever nearby minor royalty hears you’re boiling your water with a Bugatti kettle, they’ll be round like a shot. The handiwork of the same studio responsible for the indecently-fast Veyron supercar, the Vera Electric Kettle offers not only some eye-catching colors but a control-encrusted handle with LCD display.
As someone who was banned from even considering bringing an automatic donut machine into the kitchen, you can’t begin to imagine how impressed I am with the ChefStack automatic pancake machine. Capable of producing 200 pancakes per hour with minimal human intervention, the ChefStack works from pre-filled bags of pancake batter fitted with special nozzles.
Oster may be better known for their retro-styled blenders, but the company is attempting to claw its way into the 21st century with the launch of this, the Oster eLume Touchscreen blender. Topped by a 6-cup capacity glass, dishwasher-safe jug, the blender’s most obvious departure from tradition is the backlit touchscreen control panel.
It actually makes more than a little sense to use a touchscreen rather than rotary or push-button controls, before you accuse Oster of pandering to the latest interface fetish. Since the display is flat and crevice-free, it’s easy to wipe clean and keep free of old food that could present a future hygiene hazard.
Wow. Now this thing is excessive. If you are super into barbequing everything then you’ll love the Hampton Grill. This thing is downright awesome and it looks like something out of the future. While it might look normal at first, it can actually unfold into three separate grilling stations.
If you ever find yourself in the kitchen and lacking a suitable recipe, then you might just be able to make use of the Pandigital Kitchen Technology Center. With its wireless tech and touchscreen, the whole culinary world can be at your fingertips, while you’re cooking. Talk about convenient!
Equipped with wireless Internet, this kitchen gadget features a digital cookbook and recipe collection built right in from Bon Appetit. It also has a built in HDTV and can act as a digital photo frame. You can watch TV or have your photo collections display on the screen. You can also surf the web, while you’re at it.
It’s not that often that we feature appliances here on SlashGear, but this one just had to be mentioned. The Samsung RFG299 French Door Refrigerator is no ordinary ice chest. In fact, it features a LCD screen.
For those that just can’t stand to be away from their technology, even while in the kitchen, this Samsung fridge is right for you. With a 7-inch touchscreen LCD built right into the door, you can control your refrigerator from the outside.
I love kitchen gizmos because anything that can make cooking easier, I’m all for it. But the ILVE VELA rangehood brings a whole new level of technology into the kitchen.
This new device is a rangehood outfitted with a 10-inch LCD monitor. That way you can look at a screen right above your stove. Talk about convenient. And with it up high like that, it’s out of the way of splatter and food particles, unlike screens that sit on counters.
