With the touch of a button, this hot-beverage system makes coffee, tea, hot chocolate, and espresso, as well as cappuccinos and lattes with real milk.

 | Breadman TR2200C Ultimate Bread Machine
Hot and Fresh! Mmmmmm!
What used to be a time-consuming, messy process is now a snap. Measure the ingredients into the Breadman Plus, push a few buttons, then go for a walk in the park. Return a few hours later--or after a good night's sleep--to the unforgettable aroma and taste of homemade bread. This machine will even make the jam to top it off. The Breadman Ultimate makes and bakes most kinds of yeast bread--white, whole wheat, rye, honey banana, or crusty French--as well as quick or batter breads. Try the recipes in the booklet or your own favorites--just be sure the dry ingredients total less than about 5 cups so the dough doesn't overflow the 9-1/2-inch (nonstick) baking pan. If your recipe calls for adding ingredients late in the kneading cycle, there's a tray to hold and automatically dispense them. If you want to make bread that doesn't conform to the loaf shape, the machine can mix and raise the dough prior to shaping for baking in a conventional oven. |

 | Hamilton Beach Waffle Stix Waffle Maker
Sunday Morning Crowd-Pleaser.
Jazz up breakfast, brunch, or a kids’ birthday party with the unusual zigzag waffle sticks this cooker produces.

The green ready-to-cook light indicates when to add batter, so that waffle-making becomes a snap. Thick and fluffy or thin and crispy--waffles from the Stix can satisfy everyone’s whim. Latched shut, the waffle maker measures 9 by 10 by 4 inches and stands upright for compact storage. A one-year warranty covers the waffle maker against defects. |

 | George Foreman GR10AWHT Champ Grill
Makes a CHAMP out of YOU!
This smaller version of George Foreman's famous "as seen on TV" Lean Mean Fat-Reducing Grilling Machine is perfect for preparing quick, low-fat meals for one or two people. The double-sided grill surface heats in less than five minutes to an even temperature perfect for grilling most foods. The high grill grooves and slight angle allow fat to run off the grill as food cooks, and the nonstick surface requires little or no additional fat for cooking. The plastic, grooved spatula works well to scrape off any bits that may have stuck to the surface. |

 | Juiceman Smoothies
Jamba Jamba Jamba!
Exceptionally powerful (900 watts) and equipped with a variable infinite-speed control and pulse button, this big blender is similar to those found in professional smoothie shops. It blends, chops, purees, grinds, liquefies, emulsifies, whips, and crushes ice. It will make peanut butter, chop meat, create pancake batter, chop salsa, whip up a milkshake, emulsify a salad dressing, or quickly blend a thick smoothie--in seconds. The infinite-speed control buttons add or subtract 5 percent, and the LCD screen displays the speed and the elapsed time the blender has been performing the operation. The 64-ounce jar is made of rugged, impact-resistant polycarbonate and requires hand washing. To eliminate clutter, there's a cord-wrap under the base. A recipe booklet is included. The blender carries a one-year warranty against defects. |

 | Zojirushi EC-BD15 Fresh Brew Thermal Carafe Coffee Maker
Compact, stylish… and it makes GREAT coffee!
Lots of folks dislike the burnt flavor that coffee gets when it sits in a glass pot over a heating element. To avoid this, coffee shops often brew right into large thermal pots to keep the coffee warm without it becoming overcooked. The Zojirushi Fresh Brew does that, too, but in home-sized batches. It looks great, too, with a glossy black body and stainless steel carafe and brew basket. |

 | Hamilton Beach 76600 Smooth Edge Can Opener
Safe and Easy-to-Use.
It seems an affront to simply call this product a can opener. Sure, it does that, but it takes can opening to a new level by making safety a priority. It carefully opens cans from the side and not the top, so that you won't get your fingers messy trying to retrieve the lid. But best of all, a special feature allows it to smooth the edge of the can as it cuts, leaving behind a flat--and safe--surface. It also includes a built-in a knife sharpener for convenience. And no hassling with extra electrical cord lying on your counter top: a retractable feature tucks the extra cord away neatly into the base. |

 | Chef'sChoice 0130200 Knife Sharpener, 2-Stage, with Bonus
Stay sharp.
Banish dull knives forever with this compact, two-stage sharpener. It's designed to put a razor-sharp, longer lasting edge on your kitchen and household knives. In stage one, the knife's edge is re-angled to create the first bevel, with orbiting, 100% diamond abrasives. In the second stage, micro diamonds hone a second bevel and polish the edge. Patented magnetic guides hold the knife at the precise angle and assure the correct sharpening pressure, eliminating any guesswork. Diamonds will sharpen knives of any alloy - carbon steel, stainless and more. The patented Diamond Hone multi-stage process removes less steel (or dust) from the edge than other sharpening methods. Along with this sharpener comes a bonus sharpener, designed for serrated knives. Revolutionary, it realigns the serrated edge and sharpens prominent teeth into razor-sharp "micro-blades." Features 100% diamond abrasives for fast results; precision roller guides provide foolproof sharpening every time. |

 | Rival VS110 Seal-a-Meal Vacuum Sealer
Leftovers never tasted so good!
The Rival VS110 Seal-a-Meal lets you preserve your leftovers, bulk foods, and important documents far more effectively than using zipper-lock bags or plastic wrap. Oxygen and moisture are the mortal enemies of fresh food and other items; therefore, it stands to reason that the best way to preserve such items is by removing the oxygen. That's exactly the approach of the Seal-a-Meal, which vacuums oxygen out of included pre-cut plastic bags or rolls, then seals the plastic with its bag cutter. Now you can keep not only food fresh for far longer, but also treasured photographs, collectible books, birth certificates, or even certain items of clothing. The Seal-a-Meal comes with more than 50 feet of high-density bags, along with an integrated bag/roll holder and cutter. The unit uses Microban antimicrobial protection to inhibit the growth of stain- and odor-causing bacteria, though it will not protect the user from food-borne illnesses. As an added bonus, the sealer offers an accessory port that connects to the separately sold Universal Sealer, which seals items in canisters and mason jars. Other features include a convenient wall mount option and a removable, dishwasher-safe drip tray. |

 | Presto 04821 Orville Redenbacher Hot Air Corn Popper
Poppin' good.
Plug in the Orville Redenbacher Hot Air Corn Popper and the party begins. In less than 2-1/2 minutes you’ll have up to 18 cups--two large bowlfuls--of fluffy popcorn with virtually no unpopped kernels. And because the machine uses hot air instead of oil, the resulting snack is healthier and lower in calories. That’s not to say you can’t add butter; in fact, the 1/2-cup measuring cup on top of the popper doubles as a butter melter. Simply put in the desired amount of margarine or butter (room temperature is best), and it melts from the heat produced during the popping process. The clear plastic cover and cup, which must stay on during popping so the popped corn doesn’t fly all over the room, easily remove for hand cleaning with warm, soapy water. No other clean-up is required. While a few unpopped kernels spring out the chute as the machine begins to heats up, the chute does a good job of directing the popped corn into a bowl. The popper measures 14 by 9 by 6-1/2 inches, and is identical to Presto’s PopLite Hot Air Corn Popper except for color and logo. Presto covers the popper with a two-year warranty. |

 | Capresso C1500 Fully Automatic Coffee and Espresso Center with FrothXpress and Claris Water Care System
Coffee-lover heaven!

Built with an 18-bar power pump, the C1500 grinds, tamps, and brews a shot of espresso in 50 seconds. It also automatically froths milk or delivers hot water without the waiting period of lesser machines, thanks to its dual 1450-watt ThermoBlock heating system. In addition, a six-setting solid steel conical burr grinder and a two-step pre-infusion cycle ensure optimum flavor, perfect crema, and ideal aroma. The CLARIS water filtration system removes impurities and heavy metals for clearer, better taste. |

 | Santa Fe Quesadilla Maker
Yummmmm……
For a quick and easy meal, this festive red machine fires up quesadillas filled with grilled veggies, barbecued chicken, or just plain old cheese in under five minutes. The cooking plates fit tortillas that are up to 12 inches in diameter and divide your quesadilla into six manageable sections during pressing. A power light illuminates when the unit is plugged in and a ready light lets you know when your quesadilla is done. The metal cooking plates are coated with nonstick Teflon so quesadillas lift easily out of the maker and cleanup is even quicker than cooking time. The maker also has a built-in drip tray that catches stray bits of melted cheese and filling ingredients. The quesadilla maker's handle stays cool to the touch for safe handling, and the whole unit locks together for compact, upright storage. The Santa Fe quesadilla maker comes with its own recipe book and is covered by a one-year limited manufacturer's warranty. |

Quick and easy.
Sleek and effective, this simple electric device chills a bottle of wine or champagne in as little as four minutes. Simply place a bottle into the bucket, dump in one or two trays of ice cubes, add tap water to the bottle's shoulder, plug in the AC adapter (included), and set the timer, which runs from 5 to 20 minutes. When the wine is chilled (a guide for optimal temperatures of various wines is included), the chiller can be unplugged and taken to the table as an ordinary ice bucket would be to keep wine at the proper temperature. (For a too-cold red wine, using warm water instead of ice and water will bring it up to the proper drinking temperature.) |
