<p><a href="http://www.sharpusa.com/" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">Sharp</a> has been one of the biggest names in home appliances for decades now, especially when it comes to microwave ovens, but they&rsquo;ve never offered a complete matching kitchen suite until now. The New Jersey-based brand <a href="https://news.sharpusa.com/2019-08-16-Sharpen-Up-Your-Kitchen-With-The-First-Full-Built-in-Kitchen-Suite-By-Sharp-R" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">has just announced a new range of smart built-in kitchen appliances</a> that look sharper than ever (pun fully intended).</p>
<p><br /></p>
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" width="1024" height="580" alt="Built-In Smart Kitchen Appliances by Sharp " src="https://dornob.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/sharp-built-in-appliances-1024x580.jpg" class="wp-image-68867" srcset="https://dornob.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/sharp-built-in-appliances-1024x580.jpg 1024w, https://dornob.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/sharp-built-in-appliances-468x265.jpg 468w, https://dornob.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/sharp-built-in-appliances-768x435.jpg 768w, https://dornob.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/sharp-built-in-appliances.jpg 1600w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
<p><br /></p>
<p>Designed as a seamless solution for consumers, the suite includes SuperSteam ovens, induction cooktops, wall ovens, a slide-in range, microwave drawers and over-the-range microwave ovens, dishwashers, and refrigerators. That means you can basically have an entire kitchen full of matching high-tech appliances at the click of a button.</p>
<p><br /></p>
<p>Like most of Sharp&#8217;s contemporary pieces, these ones will have black edge-to-edge glass and the ability to hide their controls behind a panel for a minimalist look. The company&rsquo;s goal appears to be to appeal directly to interior designers, architects, and discerning homeowners who want both top quality and sleek modern looks for new kitchens and <a href="https://dornob.com/renovation-inspiration-how-to-freshen-up-a-modest-1920s-house/" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">renovations</a>.</p>
<p><br /></p>
<p>Unveiled at this year&#8217;s <a href="https://www.nationwideprimetime.com/" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">Nationwide Primetime Show</a> in New Orleans, Louisiana, the line appears clean and simple on the surface, but includes new features like connection to the <a href="https://dornob.com/top-3-internet-of-things-trends-for-2019/" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">Internet of Things (IoT)</a>.</p>
<p><br /></p>
<p>&#8220;This line of kitchen appliances is rooted in Sharp&#8217;s rich heritage in cooking,&#8221; says Jim Sanduski, President of the Sharp Electronics Marketing Company of America. &#8220;We&#8217;ve taken our experience in the kitchen and created the recipe for a brand-new, end-to-end kitchen solution that is both technologically advanced and beautiful.&#8221;</p>
<p><br /></p>
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" width="1024" height="881" alt="Built-In Smart Kitchen Appliances by Sharp" src="https://dornob.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/sharp-built-in-appliance-oven-1024x881.jpg" class="wp-image-68869" srcset="https://dornob.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/sharp-built-in-appliance-oven-1024x881.jpg 1024w, https://dornob.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/sharp-built-in-appliance-oven-468x403.jpg 468w, https://dornob.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/sharp-built-in-appliance-oven-768x661.jpg 768w, https://dornob.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/sharp-built-in-appliance-oven.jpg 1600w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
<p><br /></p>
<p>&#8220;The entire team at Sharp Home is committed to delivering on our promise to service the dreams and desires of the home cook, and the introduction of our first-ever kitchen suite is another step in our commitment to Simply Better Living,&#8221; adds Peter Weedfald, the company&#8217;s Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing.</p>
<p><br /></p>
<p>&#8220;Our revolutionary new products, such as the IoT-enabled SuperSteam+ Built-In Oven and IoT Microwave Drawer, are simple to use and help create great-tasting meals for modern, fast-paced families pursuing a healthier lifestyle.&#8221;</p>
<p><br /></p>
<p>You&rsquo;re not alone if you&rsquo;re wondering why in the world you&rsquo;d want your microwave to be connected to the internet, and Sharp has yet to release all of the details behind these new appliances. But generally speaking, smart microwaves are supposed to give you a new level of control over the cooking and reheating process, helping you target exact temperatures and control everything from other rooms via your smartphone. Some smart cooking appliances can even identify exactly what you&rsquo;re cooking and switch to the appropriate settings automatically.</p>
<p><br /></p>
<p>Sharp says its 24-inch IoT SuperSteam+ Built-In Oven and 24&rdquo; IoT Microwave Drawer Built-In Oven will allow easy integration into new or existing <a href="https://dornob.com/at-your-service-this-ai-butler-lives-inside-your-mirror/" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">smart home systems</a>, and other features include &ldquo;easy wave open&rdquo; for quick, touch-free opening.</p>
<figure class="wp-block-image"></figure>
<p><img decoding="async" alt="clean white kitchen with oven" height="1333" src="https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/2000x1333_85/801/shutterstock-234658525-699801.jpg" width="2000" class="" title="" /></p>
<p><br /></p>
<p>Weedfald also notes that the smart appliances will go hand-in-hand with an app powered by SideChef that lets you browse for a recipe and send instructions directly to your oven, which is pretty cool, especially for people who aren&#8217;t the most experienced home cooks.</p>
<p><br /></p>
<p>The new Sharp appliance series is set to launch in 2020, so be sure to stay tuned for more information.</p>

					<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The wildly popular &#8220;smokeless&#8221; Solo Stove is now available in a miniature version for backyard fun and backpacking trips. The <a href="https://www.solostove.com/en-us/p/mesa" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Mesa Tabletop fire pit</a> stands a mere 6.8-inches high with a 5.1-inch diameter and weighs just 1.4 pounds, making it easily portable to any location.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Mesa Tabletop Fire Pit from Solo Stove burns brightly on a small outdoor table." height="650" src="https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/650x650_85/981/mesa-portable-tabletop-fire-pit-large-flame-675981.jpg" width="650" class="" title="Mesa Tabletop Fire Pit" /></p>
<p>&ldquo;Mesa lights easily and with its smaller size, fits any outdoor space,&rdquo; explains Solo Stove&rsquo;s Clint Mickle. &ldquo;Creating good moments has never been easier, and we&rsquo;re thrilled to see new and existing customers gathered around this ingenious, low-smoke tabletop fire pit.&rdquo;</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Mesa Tabletop Fire Pit rests on a white tray by the pool." height="650" src="https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/650x650_85/984/mesa-portable-tabletop-fire-pit-poolside-1-675984.jpg" width="650" class="" title="Mesa Tabletop Fire Pit &mdash; Poolside" /></p>
<p>The Mesa relies on the same dual-wall Signature 360&deg; Airflow design as its larger Bonfire predecessors to create a smoke-free fire experience. Air comes in through holes at the base of the outer wall and vents through holes at the top of the inner wall. While the fire is burning, air between the layers heats up, expanding up and out as it sucks fresh air in from below. The exiting air &mdash; now super-heated and oxygen-rich &mdash; ignites any smoke particles it touches, eliminating the annoying fire by-product.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Family enjoys a fun night outside around their Mesa tabletop fire pit." height="650" src="https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/650x650_85/983/mesa-portable-tabletop-fire-pit-backyard-fun-675983.jpg" width="650" class="" title="Mesa Tabletop Fire Pit &mdash; Family Night" /></p>
<p>The Mesa can be fueled by conventional hardwood (Solo Stove sells their own Mini Oak Firewood packs, perfectly sized for the smaller basin) or with bagged wood pellets (a special pellet adapter is also included in the purchase). It lights up quickly with the help of a Solo Stove fire starter, producing hot fire in just a few minutes. Reviewers say the heat is sufficient for about &ldquo;four people seated in marshmallow-roasting range.&rdquo;</p>
<p>To keep the heat from burning any plastic or wood surfaces, the Mesa also comes with a handy one-inch stand that easily folds up and fits inside of the fire pit when not in use. Solo Stove also throws in a durable nylon carry case for &ldquo;compact storage and ultra-portability.&rdquo;</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="All six available color options for Solo Stove's Mesa tabletop fire pit." height="671" src="https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/800x671_85/985/mesa-portable-tabletop-fire-pit-color-choices-675985.jpg" width="800" class="" title="Mesa Tabletop Fire Pit &mdash; Color Options" /></p>
<p>Unlike the standard Solo Stove Bonfire, which only comes in a <a href="https://dornob.com/reflect-luminous-steel-kitchen-design-by-architect-jean-nouvel/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">stainless steel</a> finish, the petite Mesa fire pit can be ordered in one of six &ldquo;seasonal&rdquo; colors: Deep Ash, Mulberry, Bone, Water, Ash, and traditional Stainless Steel. The color options definitely make it a more attractive accessory for backyard parties, and thanks to the Mesa&rsquo;s high-heat ceramic coating, less likely to rust over time.</p>
<p>Solo Stoves are solidly constructed from SAE 304 stainless steel, known to be highly durable and super lightweight. The company guarantees all their products with a lifetime warranty, promising to replace any defective unit.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Close-up view of friends roasting smores around a Mesa tabletop fire pit." height="650" src="https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/650x650_85/982/mesa-portable-tabletop-fire-pit-closeup-675982.jpg" width="650" class="" title="Mesa Tabletop Fire Pit &mdash; Smores Close-Up" /></p>
<p>Not only would the ultra-light Mesa be helpful on a hike or in the backyard, but it&#8217;s also a smart solution for city-dwellers who want to bring a bit of the outdoor experience into their urban jungle. The petite fire pit could easily fuel a smores-roasting party on an apartment balcony, roof, or patio. Of course, it is only designed for outdoor use. Even though this version is portable, you should avoid trying to bring the bonfire fun inside.</p>

<p>The Solo Stove Mesa tabletop fire pit is available on the <a href="https://www.solostove.com/en-us/p/mesa" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">company website</a> with a price tag of $79.99 for the stainless-steel edition and $89.99 for the colored options.</p><p>The post <a href="https://dornob.com/solo-stove-goes-mini-with-portable-tabletop-fire-pit/">Solo Stove Goes Mini with Portable Tabletop Fire Pit</a> first appeared on <a href="https://dornob.com">Dornob</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>

					<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The next season of <em>The Great British Baking Show</em> is out now, and all those delectable treats and beautiful cookware may have you hankering to recreate the iconic baking tent in your own home. While not all the products featured in the show are available in the Western Hemisphere, there are still lots of ways to bring the look and feel of the GBBS to your kitchen:</p>
<h2>Pastel Shaker Cabinets</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Kitchen decked out with pastel shaker cabinets like those featured in " height="644" src="https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/966x644_85/679/teal-shaker-cabinets-644679.jpg" width="966" class="" title="Pastel Shaker Cabinets" /></p>
<p>Creamy pastels are the name of the game in all <em>T</em><em>he</em> <em>Great British Baking Show </em>decor, starting with the workstation cabinets. You can find this classic shaker cabinet style every season in mint greens and baby blues. You could certainly have a whole new set of cabinets installed like these from Seconds and Surplus that ship nationwide and range in price from $99 to $407 per piece, but if you&rsquo;re not looking to completely gut your kitchen or if you already have shaker-style cupboards, a fresh coat of paint in one of the show&#8217;s iconic colors will do just fine.</p>
<h2>Pink KitchenAid Stand Mixer</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Pink KitchenAid Stand Mixer like those featured in " height="920" src="https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/920x920_85/680/kitchenaid-mixer-644680.jpg" width="920" class="" title="Pink KitchenAid Stand Mixer" /></p>
<p>The hues might vary from season to season, but a KitchenAid stand mixer is a definite staple of the GBBS kitchen. This <a href="https://www.kitchenaid.com/countertop-appliances/stand-mixers/tilt-head-stand-mixers/p.artisan-series-5-quart-tilt-head-stand-mixer.ksm150psdr.html?productcategory=stand_mixers&amp;cmp=kad%253Awp_sda%25257c01%25257c00373%25257czz%25257csh%25257ct02%25257cp69%25257czz%25257cv04_kasa_ppc%253Aga%253Aps%253Atxt%253Atxt%253Acpc%253Ashop_smartshop_standmixers%253Ana%253Ana%253A12342947679%253A120529976049%253Ac&amp;gclid=CjwKCAjw_L6LBhBbEiwA4c46ul5dHim2cqf0y8bSltiYOdQOwIz22bjfKhyyY80-M43jwlyJmE_JQhoC0hMQAvD_BwE&amp;gclsrc=aw.ds" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">one</a> in pale pink has a 5-quart capacity and 10 different speeds. Plus, if pink isn&#8217;t your jam, it comes in 20 different shades. It retails for $429.99 on the KitchenAid website, but you can often find sales on other sites.</p>
<h2><a href="https://swan-usa.myshopify.com/collections/small-appliances/products/swan-800w-retro-digital-microwave?variant=39140686218" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">SWAN Retro Digital Microwave</a></h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="SWAN Retro Digital Microwave featured on " height="1024" src="https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1024x1024_85/682/swan-retro-microwave-644682.jpg" width="1024" class="" title="SWAN Retro Digital Microwave" /></p>
<p>The old-school look of these microwaves is so chic, but unfortunately they&#8217;re pretty hard to find in the U.S. Alternatively, you could try this similar model for $149.99 from Lowe&#8217;s. It&rsquo;s a 900-Watt, 0.9-cubic feet machine in seafoam green that&rsquo;s so cute, you&rsquo;ll want to cook everything in it, even bread like granny Nancy from season 5.</p>
<h2>SMEG Fridge/Freezer</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Adorable SMEG Fridge/Freezer featured in " height="1300" src="https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1300x1300_85/685/SmegFAB38URPB-644685.jpg" width="1300" class="" title="SMEG Fridge/Freezer" /></p>
<p>No GBBS kitchen would be complete without one of those adorable retro Smeg refrigerators. The on-set model is the Smeg FAB30 series, and while it&#8217;s not currently listed on the company website, the FAB32 version is similar and available from retailers like Williams Sonoma, West Elm, and Crate &amp; Barrel. They come in 8 colors, too, including the muted blue and green hues highlighted on the show.</p>
<h2>Magimix Food Processor</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Ultra-efficient Magimix Food Processor featured on " height="710" src="https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/710x710_85/683/Magimix-food-processor-644683.jpg" width="710" class="" title="Magimix Food Processor" /></p>
<p>These powerhouse machines work hard and fast to help the contestants prep their amazing culinary creations. Available from places like Wayfair, Houzz, and Zola, this 12-quart model at Williams Sonoma retails for $299.95 and comes with a host of attachments and bowl sizes for any baking project.</p>
<h2>GreenPan Ceramic Cookware</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="11-Piece GreenPan Ceramic Cookware set previously used on " height="1200" src="https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1200x1200_85/686/cookware-644686.jpg" width="1200" class="" title="GreenPan Ceramic Cookware" /></p>
<p>The show has used several different brands of cookware over the years, but the GreenPan ceramic collection has definitely been in the mix a lot. These aluminum pots and pans are non-stick and scratch resistant. You can buy an <a href="https://www.greenpan.us/collections/sets/products/valencia-pro-ceramic-non-stick-11-piece-cookware-set" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">11-piece set</a> on the company website with all the must-haves for $499.99.</p>
<h2>Proving Drawer</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="This KitchenAid Slow Cook Warming Drawer makes a great alternative to the GBBS' classic Neff proving drawer." height="808" src="https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1000x808_85/684/proving-drawer-644684.jpg" width="1000" class="" title="KitchenAid Slow Cook Warming Drawer " /></p>
<p>We all salivate over the Neff slide-and-hide ovens on the show, but so far, they&#8217;ve not made it across the pond. Contestants also frequently use the handy Neff proving drawer to help their dough rise perfectly. While the Neff brand is not available in the States, many other companies have comparable products, like this <a href="https://www.kitchenaid.com/major-appliances/warming-drawers/p.27-slow-cook-warming-drawer.kowt107ess.html?cmp=kad%253Awp_mda%25257c01%25257c00212%25257czz%25257csh%25257ct02%25257cp30%25257czz%25257cv04_kama_ppc%253Aga%253Aps%253Atxt%253Atxt%253Acpc%253Ashop_smartshop_kitchapp%253Ana%253Ana%253A10303910315%253A103012395032%253Ac&amp;gclid=CjwKCAjwn8SLBhAyEiwAHNTJbReBtUShDIXe2aLyUzul6HoHXKI0RSn6PEMm9o2tB5phzCytYuApzhoCIB0QAvD_BwE&amp;gclsrc=aw.ds" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">slow cook warming drawer</a> from KitchenAid. Selling for $1,699, it can warm dough, act as a chafing dish, and even take the place of a countertop slow cooker.</p>
<p>Creating culinary wonders like the folks on <em>The Great British Baking Show</em> can indeed be a reality in your home with a few of these fun additions, so that all your biscuits and sponges are worthy of being called &ldquo;nice bakes.&rdquo;</p><p>The post <a href="https://dornob.com/how-to-turn-your-kitchen-into-the-great-british-baking-show-cooking-tent/">How to Turn Your Kitchen into the Great British Baking Show Cooking Tent</a> first appeared on <a href="https://dornob.com">Dornob</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>

					<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Renovating your kitchen is a big job, but well worth the effort to achieve the cookspace you&rsquo;ve always dreamed of &mdash; a place where cooking is not a bore or a chore, but something that&rsquo;s fun and inspires culinary creativity.</p>
<p>To create the kitchen of your dreams, it&rsquo;s important to visualize the space you want before even picking out paint colors or types of tile. And this requires planning. That&rsquo;s where the experts come in, with designer-approved tips that give anyone envisioning the perfect kitchen everything they need to get started.</p>
<p>Below are five top things to consider before beginning your kitchen renovation:</p>
<h2>Spatial Recognition</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Spacious open-plan kitchen renovation." height="1000" src="https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1500x1000_85/686/greer-interior-1529347631-643686.jpg" width="1500" class="" title="Open-Plan Kitchen " /></p>
<p>One of the most important things to consider when beginning a kitchen renovation is how you want to use the existing space to your advantage. Kitchen a little cramped? Then you may want to consider opening up the new space a bit. This may not require knocking down walls, though, so don&rsquo;t reach for your sledgehammer just yet (though some spaces may require more extreme makeovers to achieve that &#8220;open plan&#8221; kitchen look). The first step is to create a layout, or an actual plan for how you want to arrange the space. Larger appliances, like the stove and refrigerator, are a good place to start, as they&#8217;re the typically the biggest things in the room. The key is to maximize your kitchen space in order to promote functionality and flow, rather than having a cluttered, unorganized layout.</p>
<h2>All-In On Appliances</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Brand New Dishwasher" height="1600" src="https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1157x1600_85/687/HDW2401SS-thor-kitchen-dishwasher-kitchen5-scaled-1-643687.jpg" width="1157" class="" title="Dishwasher" /></p>
<p>Speaking of appliances, the next step is to decided what appliances need an upgrade. Current fridge too big (or too small)? Consider a brand new streamlined model that better fits your space. Tired of washing dishes by hand? Think about adding a dishwasher to the mix. While this step of the reno plans may require you to shell out some dough, think of it as an investment. New appliances often last for years, and many of them are energy efficient, to boot. That&#8217;s good news for the environment <i>and </i>your wallet.</p>
<h2>Fitting In</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Bright patterned kitchen countertops blend seamlessly with existing wooden elements." height="462" src="https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/616x462_85/683/1400992266879-643683.jpg" width="616" class="" title="New Kitchen Countertops" /></p>
<p>A brand new kitchen will shine like a brightly colored jewel and stand out from the rest of your space (if you&rsquo;re not doing a total home makeover, of course). Chances are you&#8217;ll just be renovating one room at a time, so it&rsquo;s important that the kitchen works with the rest of your home. Obviously, the kitchen is not its own autonomous space. It&rsquo;s an integral part of your everyday life, so be aware of how the renovation will look in relation to the rest of the house. Try not to indulge in uber-trendy finds that can&rsquo;t be easily swapped out and changed if you have a change of heart. Stay subtle and neutral with your palette, at least until you can actually see how the decor blends with your home.</p>
<h2>Storage Solutions</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Kitchen islands make for great multipurpose storage solutions." height="630" src="https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1200x630_85/684/kitchen-countertops-og-png-643684.jpg" width="1200" class="" title="Kitchen Island " /></p>
<p>The ideal kitchen is clean, not cluttered. It&rsquo;s much easier to work in a kitchen that&#8217;s organized, with everything in an easy-to-access place. This is why storage is one of the most important considerations during a kitchen renovation, especially if your previous kitchen was light on space. Feel free to get creative here, using up available wall space so as to not clutter countertops. Floating shelves are another trendy option for storing things like glasses, and <a href="https://dornob.com/the-evolution-of-the-kitchen-island/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">kitchen islands</a> can be handy spots for stashing things you may not use 24/7, or hiding things like the trash can.</p>
<h2>Remember, It&#8217;sYour Kitchen</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Clean renovated kitchen space. " height="3024" src="https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/2000x2000_85/688/krason-kitchen-before-643688.jpg" width="4032" class="" title="Renovated Kitchen" /></p>
<p>The most important thing to consider during a kitchen renovation is how to make the space your own. Just because certain trends may work for others doesn&rsquo;t mean they&#8217;ll automatically work for you. Carefully consider what you want and need from your new kitchen, because after all, it&rsquo;s <i>your </i>kitchen. You&rsquo;ll be cooking and living in it. So while designer tips are a great place to start, don&rsquo;t forget to add a touch of yourself to your new space. How else could it be the kitchen of your dreams?</p><p>The post <a href="https://dornob.com/considering-a-kitchen-renovation-these-5-designer-approved-tips-will-help-get-you-started/">Considering a Kitchen Renovation?

					<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Kitchen renovations can get expensive. But how does the cost of a full kitchen renovation differ around the world? According to recent data collected from <em><a href="https://www.comparethemarket.com.au/home-contents-insurance/global-kitchen-renovations/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Compare the Market</a>,</em> Denmark spend the most on kitchen renovations &mdash; an average of $42,993 USD. That number represents around 84 percent of the average annual income in the U.S.!</p>
<p>Meanwhile, here in the States, the average kitchen renovation is around $25,000 (36.38 percent of the average annual income). Of the countries studied, Hong Kong ranked the lowest, with the cost of renovation around $3,747 USD (approx. 13.30 percent of the average US annual income). To get these numbers, <em>Compare the Market </em>collected data from a number of sources, including government agencies, construction associations, and renovation experts. But the one thing they all agreed on? Kitchen remodeling costs differ, no matter where you are.</p>
<p>But what about the world&rsquo;s most lavish, luxurious kitchens? Where are they, and how much did they cost?</p>
<p>Inspired by <em>Compare the Market</em>&rsquo;s report, we scoured the internet to find some of the world&rsquo;s most expensive kitchen renovations:</p>
<h2>The Fiore di Cristallo</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="The million-dollar " height="469" src="https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/740x469_85/628/fiore-di-cristallo-632628.jpg" width="740" class="" title="Fiore di Cristallo" /></p>
<p>Touted as the world&rsquo;s most expensive kitchen, this London kitchen cost over &pound;1 million ($1.6 million USD). Designed by <a href="https://www.studioceliberti.com/million-pound-kitchen/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Claudio Celiberti</a>, the renovation took over a year to complete. Using only the highest-quality materials, including the world&rsquo;s best crystal &ldquo;Crystal of Murano,&rdquo; the luxe kitchen includes other super swanky features like solid copper-lined cabinets, a crystal island, and a stone worktop. The crystal island alone cost &pound;36,850 &mdash; higher than the average <em>total</em> kitchen renovation cost in the U.S. But the <span>pi&egrave;ce de r&eacute;sistance</span> of this space is undoubtedly the chandelier (also designed by Celiberti). Made of Swarovski crystal and cristallo di Murano, this beauty cost approximately &pound;26,400 to create. Of course, this is still a functioning kitchen, and any kitchen needs appliances. Boasting &pound;24,000 worth of Gaggenau handcrafted products, including a &pound;5,000 fridge and a &pound;1,714 espresso machine, this kitchen is truly one of a kind.</p>
<h2>The Colosseo Oro</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="The $450,000 " height="478" src="https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/780x478_85/627/COLOSSEO-ORO-ed2-632627.jpg" width="780" class="" title="The Colosseo Oro" /></p>
<p>Once dubbed &ldquo;the world&rsquo;s most expensive fitted kitchen,&rdquo; this $450,000 limited edition kitchen pairs classic elegance with futuristic accents to create an aesthetic fit for modern luxury. A product of <a href="https://www.marazzidesign.com" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Marazzi Design</a>, the reflective, shiny surfaces are accentuated by Swarovski crystal lights. Other opulent touches include crocodile embossed leather, Venetian ink-stained gold glass, and 24-carat gold leafing. The appliances are equally as impressive (all state-of-the-art and<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>worth approximately $85,000 themselves), with the highlight being a Zaha Hadid tap with a price tag of $12,000. With its combination of dynamic shapes and colors, luxe materials, and modern kitchen gadgetry, it&#8217;s no wonder this London kitchen is so highly coveted and admired.</p>
<h2>South Tower at Time Warner Center</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Penthouse Kitchen inside NYC's luxe South Tower at Time Warner Center" height="695" src="https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1200x695_85/631/nyckitchen-632631.jpg" width="1200" class="" title="South Tower at Time Warner Center - Penthouse Kitchen" /></p>
<p>This kitchen makes the list simply by being included in one of the priciest apartments in New York City. The penthouse suite is 8,500 square feet of pure luxury, and the kitchen is no exception. Dubbed &ldquo;a professional chef&rsquo;s kitchen,&rdquo; the space is fit with all the best appliances and is leant an air of elegance with Alba Chiara marble countertops and sycamore cabinetry custom-designed by Poliform. Another amazing feature of this kitchen is its view, replete with a breakfast area abutting a media room that has glorious views of the Hudson River. Imagine sipping your morning latte (made with a top-of-the-line espresso machine, of course!) while you bask in the most breathtaking city views. Now <i>that&rsquo;s</i> luxury.</p>
<h2>The Electrolux Grand Cuisine Professional Kitchen</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="The The Electrolux Grand Cuisine Professional Kitchen." height="640" src="https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/960x640_85/626/grand-cuisine-632626.jpg" width="960" class="" title="The Electrolux Grand Cuisine Professional Kitchen" /></p>
<p>Everyone knows that Electrolux appliances are some of the best out there, so it only makes sense that they&#8217;d form the centerpiece of this kitchen with a hefty price tag of $322,000. Showcasing Electrolux&rsquo;s Grand Cuisine Range, this kitchen has been described not only as revolutionary but also as the preferred kitchen of Michelin-starred chefs everywhere. But the appliances aren&#8217;t the only things that make this kitchen shine. With its reflective glass surfaces, the appliances seem to disappear and themselves become part of the natural surroundings. Though it&#8217;s built with only the best materials, the kitchen is still meant to be functional &mdash; albeit &ldquo;virtually effortless.&rdquo; Imagine having appliances built into your kitchen that are not only mostly automated, but also work better when used simultaneously for ultimate cooking ease and precision. While not the most expensive kitchen on our list, it is certainly the one that best combines luxury and functionality into a space anyone would be happy to cook in.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Disney World&rsquo;s &ldquo;Carousel of Progress&rdquo; imagined futuristic kitchen spaces long before they actually existed." height="800" src="https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1200x800_85/630/carousel_of_progress_gallery02__1_-0-632630.jpg" width="1200" class="" title="Disney World&rsquo;s &ldquo;Carousel of Progress&rdquo; - Futuristic Kitchen" /></p>
<p>While most of us will not have the opportunity to cook in a six or seven-figure kitchen any time soon, these spaces still give us a fun way to reimagine the <a href="https://dornob.com/homeadvisor-looks-back-on-the-last-500-years-of-kitchen-design/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">traditional cookspace</a>. Kitchens have long held the distinction of being rooms that can easily be transformed into visions of the future; one only has to visit Disney World&rsquo;s &ldquo;Carousel of Progress&rdquo; to experience how visionaries such as Walt Disney imagined technology would continue to change and shape our everyday lives, starting in the kitchen. And these kitchens are no exception. Through their lavish designs, sophisticated appliances, and evolving modern interpretations of a more traditional space, we continue our quest for the quintessential kitchen.</p><p>The post <a href="https://dornob.com/fantastic-and-functional-a-look-at-the-worlds-most-expensive-kitchen-renovations/">Fantastic and Functional: A Look at the World’s Most Expensive Kitchen Renovations</a> first appeared on <a href="https://dornob.com">Dornob</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>

					<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you&rsquo;re on the hunt for your next favorite kitchen appliance, you may be able to score an excellent deal during this year&rsquo;s upcoming Amazon Prime Day.</p>
<p>Although an exact date has not been announced, company officials have confirmed that the annual 48-hour mega sale will happen sometime in June this year. Even though Prime Day was postponed last year after the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, when it finally did happen in October 2020, people around the world bought a record $10.4 billion worth of goods, increasing global sales by 45.2 percent compared to 2019&rsquo;s Prime Day event, according to <em><a href="https://www.digitalcommerce360.com/article/amazon-prime-day-sales/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Digital Commerce 360</a>.</em></p>
<p>This year&rsquo;s deals, including those on smart appliances, are likely to be even bigger and better. While the company hasn&rsquo;t released any hints about which brands and products will be offered in 2021, below is a list of kitchen and home appliance suggestions to look out for when Prime Day finally rolls around. All these brands have seen particularly big discounts in years past:</p>
<h2>Smart Pressure Cooker</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="6-Quart Instant Pot with Smart Wi-Fi, available on Amazon." height="1000" src="https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/2000x1000_85/222/instant-pot-630222.png" width="2000" class="" title="6-Quart Instant Pot with Smart Wi-Fi" /></p>
<p>The <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0777XQ4S8/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B0777XQ4S8&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=292205-20&amp;linkId=8fee2f215a0761591c4124c26603fa32" rel="nofollow noopener">6-Quart Instant Pot with Smart Wi-Fi</a> could be a great connected appliance to add to your cooking arsenal. In addition to all the standard features like slow cooking, pressure cooking, rice cooking, and yogurt making, this smart version can connect with an accompanying app and be controlled through your phone or Alexa. You can check the temperature and cooking progress remotely, choose from more than 1,000 pre-programmed recipes, and even receive alerts when your meal is done.</p>
<h2>Smart Countertop Oven</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Amazon Smart Oven" height="550" src="https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/944x550_85/217/amazon-smart-oven-630217.jpg" width="944" class="" title="Amazon Smart Oven" /></p>
<p>Amazon&rsquo;s own <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07XSCBSN5/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B07XSCBSN5&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=dornob_ib-20&amp;linkId=014f717163f0a7281f1c2f42515bbda0" rel="nofollow noopener">Smart Oven</a> gets great reviews from customers and will more than likely go on sale this Prime Day. It&#8217;s a 4-in-1 microwave, convection over, food warmer, and air fryer. And because it&#8217;s an Amazon product, it can be voice controlled for over 30 different presets through Alexa devices. Have her notify you when the oven&#8217;s preheated or your food is cooked and never worry about watching a timer again. Best of all, if you scan select packaged items with the accompanying app, the Amazon Smart Oven will cook them automatically according to the manufacturer&#8217;s instructions. With an interior large enough to cook a five-pound chicken and an internal thermometer probe for perfect temperatures, this is definitely a product to keep your eye on.</p>
<h2>Smart Air Fryer</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Cosori 14-in-1 Smart Large Air Fryer Oven, available on Amazon." height="1381" src="https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1500x1381_85/218/cosori-air-fryer-630218.jpg" width="1500" class="" title="Cosori 14-in-1 Smart Large Air Fryer Oven" /></p>
<p>If you only need an air frying function, the <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07GJBBGHG/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B07GJBBGHG&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=dornob_ib-20&amp;linkId=c95108f5e5c063646bdac9b9cfe40a57" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Cosori 14-in-1 Smart Large Air Fryer Oven</a> might be one to search for on Prime Day. Featuring a seven-quart capacity and plenty of accessories, this model also connects to your Wi-Fi and allows you to check the cooking process on the company app. It can also be voice controlled through Alexa or Google&rsquo;s Assistant device.</p>
<h2>Smart Cordless Vacuum</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="MOOSOO Cordless Vacuum, available on Amazon." height="1500" src="https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1390x1500_85/219/moosoo-vacuum-630219.jpg" width="1390" class="" title="MOOSOO Cordless Vacuum" /></p>
<p>This MOOSOO Cordless Vacuum comes fully equipped with the latest Smart Sensor chip, allowing you to adjust the suction with a simple touch. The proprietary battery-saving technology also provides it with up to 40 minutes of continual use, and it only takes a few hours to recharge.</p>
<h2>Smart Robot Vacuum</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="iRobot Roomba s9+, available on Amazon." height="1500" src="https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1043x1500_85/220/roomba-630220.jpg" width="1043" class="" title="iRobot Roomba s9+" /></p>
<p>The <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07QXM2V6X/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B07QXM2V6X&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=dornob_ib-20&amp;linkId=f4465c9f7d44625e3b8df75f991bfd6f">iRobot Roomba s9+</a> is the company&rsquo;s smartest robot vacuum yet. The vSLAM navigation allows it to map out your home and learn to clean it better each time. It also uses PerfectEdge Technology with advanced sensors and a specially designed corner brush to clean better along edges and corners. You can even choose individual rooms to vacuum or set regular cleaning schedules through the accompanying phone app. Or, if you prefer, you can pair it with Alexa and control it via voice command.</p>
<h2>Smart Air Purifier</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Winix AM90 Wi-Fi Air Purifier, available on Amazon." height="1187" src="https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1500x1187_85/221/winix-airpurifier-630221.jpg" width="1500" class="" title="Winix AM90 Wi-Fi Air Purifier" /></p>
<p>Sure to be a popular item as COVID-19 continues to plague many parts of the world, the Winix AM90 Wi-Fi Air Purifier includes plasma wave technology that breaks down toxins like allergens, chemical vapors, and odors on the molecular level. It also includes True HEPA filters that capture 99.97 percent of airborne contaminants like dust mites, pet dander, and pollen. Powerful enough to clean the air in a room up to 360 square feet, you can monitor your air quality and control the settings through the Winix Smart App. It&#8217;s also compatible with Alexa devices.</p>
<p>Fetting the best deal on smart appliances will require you to check the website often on Prime Day, but you should be able to find deep discounts on your wishlist items without going through too much trouble. And don&rsquo;t forget that to participate in the event, you&rsquo;ll need an existing Amazon Prime membership (though you can always just sign up for the 30-day free trial).</p><p>The post <a href="https://dornob.com/6-smart-appliance-deals-to-look-for-this-amazon-prime-day/">6 Smart Appliance Deals to Look for This Amazon Prime Day</a> first appeared on <a href="https://dornob.com">Dornob</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>

					<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Did someone say Prime Day? In case you&rsquo;ve been living off the grid, Prime Day is the Black Friday-esque annual bonanza on Amazon when <a href="https://www.amazon.com/amazonprime" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><span>Prime members</span></a> can score great bargains on loads of fab items. Since Prime Day is traditionally a bit of a surprise, it&rsquo;s best to be prepared now so that you know what to look for going in.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt=" Echo Show 5 " height="518" src="https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/862x518_85/956/Echo-Show-5-629956.jpg" width="862" class="" title=" Echo Show 5 " /></p>
<p>Since it&rsquo;s (almost) impossible to know what&rsquo;s going to be on deck this Prime Day, we&rsquo;ve done some of the heavy lifting for you and created this handy guide to some of the best tech deals to expect this time around.</p>
<h2>Amazon Goods and Services</h2>
<p>Let&rsquo;s begin with Amazon. Historically, many of the top Amazon goods and services (like <a href="https://www.amazon.com/music/prime?ref_=nav_em__dm_pm_0_2_3_4" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><span>Amazon Music</span></a>) are discounted during Prime Day, so if you&rsquo;ve been holding out on upgrading to services like <a href="https://www.amazon.com/kindle-dbs/hz/subscribe/ku?pd_rd_w=Jnyv3&amp;qid=1621877267&amp;pd_rd_wg=lImEG&amp;pd_rd_r=8a81b250-dcc8-42ba-88c2-27a82ca69cd4&amp;shoppingPortalEnabled=true" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><span>Kindle Unlimited</span></a> or getting some new <a href="https://www.amazon.com/s?k=echo+smart+speakers&amp;rh=n:9818047011&amp;dc&amp;qid=1621877341&amp;rnid=2941120011&amp;ref=sr_nr_n_5" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><span>Echo smart speakers</span></a>, now is your time to shine. Here are some other great deals we are expecting to see on Amazon tech.</p>
<p><em><a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07CXG6C9W/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B07CXG6C9W&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=dornob_ib-20&amp;linkId=d02316856d3ac8b2ee3ec7d98be51900" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Kindle Paperwhite</a></em></p>
<p><em><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Kindle Paperwhite" height="1213" src="https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1820x1213_85/948/kindle-paperwhite-629948.jpg" width="1820" class="" title="Kindle Paperwhite" /></em></p>
<p>It&rsquo;s the Kindle of your dreams, all in one handy waterproof package that reads like a dream even under the bright summer sun. Imagine reading your faves by the pool without the fear of errant splashes (or spilled margaritas) trashing your gear. And with double the storage of older models, you can easily keep your complete collection of James Patterson books in one place (we&rsquo;re not judging!).</p>
<p><em><a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B085M66LH1/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B085M66LH1&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=dornob_ib-20&amp;linkId=edf4b4bcff0515ffc24095a1846253a2" rel="noopener nofollow">Amazon Echo Dot</a></em></p>
<p><em><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Amazon Echo Dot (4th Gen) " height="777" src="https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1000x777_85/960/echo-dot-629960.jpg" width="1000" class="" title="Amazon Echo Dot (4th Gen) " /></em></p>
<p>Siri is great and everything, but what happens when your phone isn&rsquo;t nearby? Have no fear, Alexa is here! With the pint-sized Echo Dot speaker, you can have Alexa answer all your burning questions and do your bidding without needing to try and find your phone. The best part is that because of its size, you can keep one in every room without worrying about unnecessary clutter.</p>

<p>The stars may align this year if Prime Day falls after the release of the new Echo 8, which is set to be released in early June. Always wanted a little portable TV for your office, kitchen, or just to take with you when you don&rsquo;t want to carry a laptop? Well, this definitely fits the bill. With a clear display that makes it easy to binge your fave shows, video chat with your BFF, and finally watch that tutorial about how to tie-dye at home, the Echo 8 is also compatible with Alexa and all her visual components. Pretty cool, huh?</p>

<p>These are just some of the amazing Amazon products and services you&#8217;ll most likely be able to find this Prime Day &mdash; and even if your aren&rsquo;t interested in the newest tech available, you&#8217;ll probably still be able to find some killer deals on older goodies like the <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08KJN3333/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B08KJN3333&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=dornob_ib-20&amp;linkId=202db560d08e0be7159e0efcdab5cb40" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><span>Echo Show 5 </span></a>and the <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07FZ8S74R/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B07FZ8S74R&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=dornob_ib-20&amp;linkId=5d51610fd0e50360468609558c90b559" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><span>Echo Dot 3rd Gen Smart Speaker</span></a>.</p>

<p>Let&rsquo;s face it &mdash; Amazon Private-Label brands aren&rsquo;t the only option around. However, during Prime Day, the online retail giant offers plenty of other top brands to add to your cart. Below are just some of the goodies we&#8217;ll be watching for:</p>
<p><em>Instant Pot Ultra Programmable Pressure Cooker</em></p>

Want to eliminate those unnecessary appliances gathering dust in your kitchen? Then be sure to add this little powerhouse to your Prime Day wishlist.</p>

<p>Historically, Prime Day is a great place to score deals on appliances like vacuums, and if you&#8217;re looking to replace (or upgrade) yours, then be sure to check deals on snazzy brands like <span>Bissell</span>. After all, who doesn&rsquo;t want an appliance that&#8217;s both futuristic and functional?</p>

Easy to use, non-stick, and sleek design combine in this handy kitchen tool that&#8217;s both versatile and fun to cook with. Fries, anyone?</p>

But there are other goodies that may also pop up during this year&rsquo;s event. Lucky for you, we have a time machine called the Internet that allows us to predict the following fab finds:</p>

<p>These are some of the most popular earbuds on the market right now, and during Prime Day, you may be able to snag them at a great price. Sleek and comfy, these AirPods easily connect to all your Apple devices. Plus, there are options for adding a wireless charging case for even more cord-free convenience.</p>

<p>For the traditionalists among us who would rather rock headphones than earbuds, have no fear &mdash; there will most likely be some eye-popping deals in that department, too &mdash; such as these cool ones from Bose. An added bonus is that these beauties are Alexa-enabled, allowing you access to everything you need while working (or playing).</p>

					<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Want to be able to eat less and still feel satisfied? The IGGI bowl, one of the latest campaigns on <a href="https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/iggi-effortless-weight-loss-calorie-cloaking?secret_perk_token=4eae24e9#/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Indiegogo</a>, could help.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Easy-to-remove dividers make portion control even easier in the IGGI Bowl." height="800" src="https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1050x800_85/776/dividers-624776.jpg" width="1050" class="" title="IGGI " /></p>
<p>Designed with a convex middle, this bowl reduces the amount of calories you can fit into one serving, and &ldquo;the unique false bottom causes your brain to see 33 percent more food than is actually there.&rdquo;</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Exterior view of the IGGI " height="800" src="https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1050x800_85/767/outside-view-624767.jpg" width="1050" class="" title="IGGI " /></p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Dissected view of the IGGI Bowl shows how it deceives you into thinking you're eating more than you really are." height="700" src="https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1050x700_85/777/inside-view-624777.jpg" width="1050" class="" title="IGGI " /></p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Even when chock-full of food, the IGGI " height="888" src="https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1050x888_85/773/calories-624773.jpg" width="1050" class="" title="IGGI " /></p>
<p>The creator of the IGGI bowl, Australian designer Roderic Andrews, was inspired to find a better path to weight loss after his doctor warned him that his liver problem would be irreversible in three months if he didn&rsquo;t make significant changes. After diving into nutrition research, &ldquo;I soon discovered dozens of little-known food psychology studies using &lsquo;sensory perception manipulation&rsquo; and learned that only about a third of our hunger is actually biological,&rdquo; Andrews explains. &ldquo;The rest is lifelong ingrained bad habits and unguided emotional eating.&rdquo;</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Easy-to-remove dividers make portion control even easier in the IGGI Bowl. " height="800" src="https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1050x800_85/769/portioning-624769.jpg" width="1050" class="" title="IGGI " /></p>
<p>&ldquo;Many of us overeat because it&rsquo;s all we&rsquo;ve ever known. We never learned appropriate portion sizes and we&rsquo;re surrounded by excessive eating out in public.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Enter the IGGI bowl and the attached Meal Mindfulness system. Based on a study from the National Library of Medicine that proved a correlation between portion perception and feeling &ldquo;full,&rdquo; this 7.7-inch stoneware bowl takes out a third of the space that would be in a similar-sized normal bowl. It allows for no more than 600 calories at once, but after you fill it to the top with food, your brain is tricked into thinking you&#8217;re eating more than what&#8217;s on your plate.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Graphic explains that the IGGI Bowl's red hue also helps you eat less than you normally would. " height="622" src="https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1050x622_85/768/red-dish-v-white-624768.jpg" width="1050" class="" title="IGGI " /></p>
<p>The dish is also glazed in a Japanese-style red, not only for beauty but because Andrews found studies showing that eating from a red plate versus a white plate reduces consumption by another 22 percent.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="The IGGI " height="700" src="https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1050x700_85/775/app-624775.jpg" width="1050" class="" title="IGGI " /></p>
<p>IGGI is designed to be used with an app that provides meal recommendations created by dieticians and chefs, as well as Mindful Eating audio that teaches you to slow your rhythm during a meal to reduce your calorie intake. The system also comes with 15 recipe cards and 15 Mindful Habits Cards that encourage healthier eating habits.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="The IGGI Bowl's accompanying Mindful eating tip flashcards help you slow down and actually enjoy the food you eat." height="700" src="https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1050x700_85/772/mindfulness-cards-624772.jpg" width="1050" class="" title="IGGI " /></p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Woman listens along to Mindful Eating audio as she enjoys a balanced meal in her IGGI Bowl." height="800" src="https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1050x800_85/770/mindful-audio-624770.jpg" width="1050" class="" title="IGGI " /></p>
<p>The bowl is microwave and dishwasher-safe and comes with food-grade silicone inserts that can separate your foods into vegetables, proteins, carbs, and legumes. These inserts are easy to clean and heat resistant up to 450&deg;F. They can even be popped out individually for reheating. Also included in the bundle are a bowl lid with a hermetic seal and a tight-fitting neoprene-style carry case for easy and leak-proof transport.</p>
<p>Andrews says the &ldquo;calorie cloaking&rdquo; bowl and Meal Mindfulness system was personally effective for him: &ldquo;So, how did it go after using IGGI daily for 6 months? I refuse to play the &#8216;before and after&#8217; game (that causes us all great psychological pain), but suffice it to say, I finally &#8216;feel good in my skin.&#8217; I reached my targets, but more importantly, I haven&rsquo;t relapsed for the first time ever. My habits have changed for the better.&rdquo;</p>

<p>If you don&rsquo;t want to take his word for it, you can buy a one full bowl kit on Indiegogo for $69, or a two-pack for $99.</p><p>The post <a href="https://dornob.com/this-calorie-cloaking-bowl-will-help-you-eat-less-and-feel-full/">This “Calorie Cloaking” Bowl Will Help You Eat Less and Feel Full</a> first appeared on <a href="https://dornob.com">Dornob</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>

<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="A large central kitchen island like this one makes cooking easier and a whole lot more enjoyable." height="1125" src="https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1500x1125_85/277/kitchen-tweaks-island-via-apartment-therapy-617277.jpg" width="1500" class="" title="Large Kitchen Island" /></p>
<p class="p1">Many kitchens, especially in older homes, just don&rsquo;t have enough counter space. And let&#8217;s be honest &mdash; it&rsquo;s hard to devote a lot of time and energy to healthy home cooking when you feel cramped. If possible, add a <a href="https://dornob.com/the-evolution-of-the-kitchen-island/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">central island</a>, even if it&rsquo;s just a compact butcher block surface on wheels that gets tucked away when not in use. Get some inspiration for small spaces at Apartment Therapy.</p>
<h2 class="p1">Convenient Chopping Station</h2>
<p class="p1">Healthy cooking requires a lot of fruit and vegetable chopping. Make this process as easy and convenient as possible by setting up a chopping station with a large cutting board, sharp knives within reach, and your trash and compost bins as close by as possible.</p>
<h2 class="p1">Water Filter</h2>
<p class="p1">Easy access to fresh, great-tasting water makes it a lot easier to stick to your daily hydration goals. If your fridge doesn&rsquo;t have a built-in water dispenser, consider adding a built-in filter to your faucet or using a filtering pitcher.</p>
<h2 class="p1">Healthy Items at Eye Level</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Keep the healthiest foods in your kitchen the closest to your eye level to inspire clean eating all year long." height="702" src="https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1250x702_85/279/kitchen-tweaks-healthy-items-eye-level-via-eat-this-not-that-617279.jpg" width="1250" class="" title="Healthy Items at Eye Level" /></p>
<p class="p1">On your counter or open shelving, arrange healthy food items right where you&rsquo;ll see them every day. That might include fresh potted herbs, produce in bowls or baskets, and dry staples like brown rice, beans, quinoa, and nuts in clear jars. That way, you&rsquo;ll feel inspired by these ingredients every time you enter your kitchen. (<em><a href="https://www.eatthis.com/coronavirus-healthy-grocery-list/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Image via Eat This, Not That</a></em>)</p>
<h2 class="p1">Plenty of Storage Space</h2>
<p class="p1">Adequate storage is essential to a functional kitchen, both to keep the counters clear and ready for use and to hide away less-healthy items you might otherwise find too tempting. Whether it&rsquo;s the kids&rsquo; snacks or your cookie baking supplies, these items are best kept in a high cabinet so they&rsquo;re not the first things you see when you go looking for a snack or a meal idea.</p>
<h2 class="p1">Lots of Room in the Refrigerator</h2>
<p class="p1">It&rsquo;s hard to eat healthy when you don&rsquo;t have enough space to store fresh foods, especially greens and other items that need to be tucked into a drawer to stay crisp. If a large refrigerator fits your kitchen and your budget, great. If not, see if you can clear out some unnecessary condiments and add extra produce-saver bins, like <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Produce-Saver-Refrigerator-Organizer-Fridge/dp/B082W2558J/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&amp;keywords=produce+bin&amp;qid=1609893497&amp;sr=8-3" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">this set of stackable containers from Amazon.</a></p>
<h2 class="p1">Magnetic Whiteboard or Chalkboard</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Kitschy Kitchen Chalkboard" height="600" src="https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/900x600_85/280/kitchen-tweaks-chalkboard-via-no-ordinary-homestead-617280.jpg" width="900" class="" title="Kitschy Kitchen Chalkboard" /></p>
<p class="p1">Even the most die-hard health nuts occasionally let food go bad in the fridge. To stay on top of what needs to be eaten ASAP and inspire ideas for healthy recipes, keep an inventory of the most perishable foods in your fridge written on a whiteboard or chalkboard, either on or beside the fridge. This is also a great place to write your grocery list and have family members write their own meal requests. A big <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Magnetic-Erase-Whiteboard-Sheet-Refrigerator/dp/B01LHNGMZ0/ref=sr_1_3_sspa?dchild=1&amp;keywords=refrigerator+whiteboard+magnetic&amp;qid=1609893695&amp;sr=8-3-spons&amp;psc=1&amp;spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUFWMTVJOFJPSk9JSUsmZW5jcnlwdGVkSWQ9QTA5MDA2MzkyMURTWklCUDdIUzNWJmVuY3J5cHRlZEFkSWQ9QTA3NzYzMzEyQUxUUTZYM0kxTFYmd2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9hdGYmYWN0aW9uPWNsaWNrUmVkaXJlY3QmZG9Ob3RMb2dDbGljaz10cnVl" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">magnetic dry-erase whiteboard sheet</a> is fast, easy, and cheap. (<a href="https://www.noordinaryhomestead.com/best-chalkboard-decor-ideas-kitchen/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><em>Image via No Ordinary Homestead</em></a>)</p>
<h2 class="p1">A Bright, Open Feeling</h2>
<p class="p1">You might have to get creative in smaller kitchens or rentals, but <a href="https://dornob.com/moss-carpet-and-natural-light-park-like-home-office/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">natural light</a> (or a good facsimile) and connection with the spaces where your family hangs out can be a big motivator to spend more time cooking. Consider switching out any heavy curtains or opaque blinds with lighter, sheerer materials that let lots of light into the room. Eliminate obstacles between the kitchen and living rooms if you can, too, or at least tuck some bar stools under the island or a small table in the corner so you can chat with a loved one while you work.</p>
<h2 class="p1">Little Extras That Make You Happy</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Person prepares a healthy meal comprised of fruits and veggies." height="1367" src="https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/2000x2000_85/278/kitchen-tweaks-healthy-via-nenad-stojkovak-617278.jpg" width="2048" class="" title="Healthy Eating" /></p>
<p class="p1">Think about what might make you want to linger in your kitchen a little longer. A bluetooth speaker, so you can play music or podcasts while you cook? An under-cabinet iPad mount? There&rsquo;s no shame in a kitchen TV, either, if that&rsquo;s what works for you. Similarly, if standing for long periods is hard for you, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/s?k=kitchen+mat+anti+fatique&amp;ref=nb_sb_noss_2" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">an anti-fatigue floor mat</a> will go a long way toward making you more comfortable.</p>

					<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>While our kitchens may not have reached Jetson-style ease quite yet, we&#8217;re also not too far off, with smart technology already being incorporated in all of today&rsquo;s cutting-edge appliances. In addition to gadgets like <a href="https://dornob.com/this-music-playing-cleaning-robot-is-basically-a-roomba-for-your-bed/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Roomba vacuums</a> and voice-controlled lights, every device in your cooking space can now be computer chip-connected and controlled, providing the most hands-off experience to date.</p>
<h2>Refrigerators That Plan Your Meals</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Bosch Home Connect Fridge" height="641" src="https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/521x641_85/485/Bosch-fridge-614485.jpg" width="521" class="" title="Bosch Home Connect Fridge" /></p>
<p>Not only are there refrigerators on the market with interior cameras that let you see their contents without opening a single door, but many of those same units also <a href="https://dornob.com/futuristic-smart-fridge-input-ingredients-receive-recipes/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">connect to your smartphone</a>, allowing you to view your inventory at the grocery store when you don&rsquo;t remember how many eggs you have left.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Use your smartphone to browse the complete contents of your Bosch Home Connect Fridge from wherever you are." height="780" src="https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1855x780_85/486/Bosch-fridge-1-614486.jpg" width="1855" class="" title="Bosch Home Connect Fridge - Smartphone Integration " /></p>
<p>This year, German-based Bosch made its Home Connect Refrigerator even smarter. Equipped with two cameras, one to scan the main interior and another to look at the door shelf items, this high-tech fridge comes with one more extraordinary feature: the ability to recommend meals based on the ingredients you have inside. Currently available in Europe, Bosch teamed up with Chefling, a meal and recipe planning app company, to allow users to scan in barcodes as they put food into the fridge. The refrigerator keeps track of those items, and the Chefling app uses them to compile a list of possible recipes.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Woman checks the contents of her Bosch Home Connect fridge from the grocery store using her smartphone." height="613" src="https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/923x613_85/487/home-connect-fridge-614487.jpg" width="923" class="" title="Bosch Home Connect Fridge - Grocery Store Update" /></p>
<p>Of course, since manually adding barcodes and inputting items by name can be tedious, the Bosch-Chefling partnership is currently working to add food recognition software to the mix and automate the entire process.</p>
<h2>Ovens You Can Preheat With Your Phone</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Woman uses the LG ThinQ App to wirelessly preheat her oven." height="800" src="https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1200x800_85/484/LG-ThinQ-app-for-oven-614484.jpg" width="1200" class="" title="LG ThinQ App " /></p>
<p>Oven tech today has evolved to combine convection microwaves, air-frying ovens, speed cookers, and steam units. Not only do you have your choice of cooking styles in just one model these days, but many ovens also have smartphone integration capabilities. Yes, practically all major brands have appliances today that can be preheated and turned off with an app. LG&rsquo;s <a href="https://www.lg.com/us/discover/thinq/kitchen" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Smart ThinQ app</a>, for example, allows you to remotely adjust the temperature or see how much time is left on your cook.</p>
<h2>Faucets That Know Your Voice</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Kohler Touchless Faucet" height="410" src="https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/637x410_85/483/kohler-touchless-faucet-614483.jpg" width="637" class="" title="Kohler Touchless Faucet" /></p>
<p>Touchless faucets have been around for several years now, but the latest updates allow users to turn the water on and off with just their voice. Wisconsin-based plumbing brand <a href="//www.us.kohler.com/us/sensate-kitchen-faucet-w-kohler-konnect-and-voice-activated-technology/productDetail/kitchen-sink-faucets/1548041.htm%20" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Kohler</a> has just such a unit that even allows you to customize the water amount to your specific recipe. For example, you could program the faucet via your smartphone to dispense exactly six quarts of water when you call out &ldquo;spaghetti.&rdquo;</p>
<h2>Dishwashers That Open With a Knock and Order Their Own Detergent</h2>
<h2><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="All it takes is a couple raps of the knuckles to activate the new Miele G7000 line of dishwashers. " height="636" src="https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/552x636_85/481/miele-knock2open-614481.jpg" width="552" class="" title=" Miele&rsquo;s G7000 Line of Knock2Open Dishwashers" /></h2>
<p>Dishwasher upgrades in recent years have included quieter decibels and crystal-clear drying, but in the kitchen of the future, the only thing you&rsquo;ll have to do is actually load the dishes. For example, Miele&rsquo;s G7000 line of washers use <a href="//www.mieleusa.com/e/knock2open-g6-patent-knock2open-zpv000000000000000020001901200-f%20" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Knock2Open technology</a>. &#8220;After knocking twice on the front panel of the fully integrated Miele dishwasher, the door opens by about four inches completely on its own using an ingenious opening mechanism,&#8221; the German company&rsquo;s website says.</p>
<p>Several of its models can also close themselves as well. In fact, &#8220;a slight contact between the door and the appliance is all it takes to activate the motorized door closing feature.&rdquo; And integrated dishwashers like Miele&rsquo;s also keep track of their own detergent needs, automatically ordering more online when supply runs low.</p>
<h2>Stoves That Sense When You Put on a Pot</h2>
<p>Admittedly, ranges may be the last kitchen appliance to get a smart upgrade. Control of open flames and touchable heat is harder to turn over to a phone alone. However, stoves do come in plenty of high-tech varieties today. Induction ranges can sense the difference between a metal pot and a human hand being placed on their surface. And Thermador, the luxury appliance company based in California, has a sophisticated unit with a simmer so low you can melt chocolate over it with just a paper plate.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Thermador Convection Speed Oven" height="707" src="https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/942x707_85/488/thermador-convection-speed-oven-614488.jpg" width="942" class="" title="Thermador Convection Speed Oven" /></p>
<p>A truly revolutionary change may be on the way though. German brand <a href="https://www.grundig.com/en-za/home-appliances/technologies/vux-system" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Grundig</a> is working on virtual user experience technology (VUX) to eliminate knobs and buttons altogether, instead projecting cook zones and temperature settings on the surface when in use. That same VUX automation can be used to project recipes onto kitchen walls for more <a href="https://dornob.com/cookingpal-julia-all-in-one-ai-powered-robot-makes-cooking-easier/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">hands-free help</a>.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Grundig Hands-Free Projection Stovetop" height="514" src="https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/947x514_85/482/grundig-projection-stove-614482.jpg" width="947" class="" title="Grundig Hands-Free Projection Stovetop" /></p>
<p>With the aid of smartphones and integrated tech, the hands-free kitchen of the future is already on its way into our homes. Now all we have left to dream about are self-cleaning counters and robots that put away the groceries for us.</p><p>The post <a href="https://dornob.com/thanks-to-smart-tech-the-hands-free-kitchen-of-tomorrow-is-here-today/">Thanks to Smart Tech, the Hands-Free Kitchen of Tomorrow is Here Today</a> first appeared on <a href="https://dornob.com">Dornob</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>

					<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="p1">Are you one of those people who can&rsquo;t be bothered to measure spices for a recipe? Hey, it&rsquo;s understandable. After all, pulling down the bottles and fastidiously pouring them out into a tiny measuring spoon can feel like a waste of time. Unfortunately, most of us aren&rsquo;t as good at eyeballing amounts as we like to think we are, and that can result in recipes that are a little<em> off.</em></p>
<p class="p1"><em><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="The CassCaps measuring lid makes adding the perfect amounts of spice to your meals a total snap. " height="1300" src="https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1600x1300_85/798/Casscaps-measuring-lid-605798.png" width="1600" class="" title="CassCaps Spice Jar Measuring Lid " /></em></p>
<p class="p1">Here comes one of those convenient upgrades that are practically begging to be a sold via infomercial. &ldquo;CassCaps&rdquo; is a set of alternative caps for all your standard-sized spice jars featuring built-in measuring capabilities for 1/4 or 1/2 teaspoon, which is sufficient for most cooking needs. To use it, all you have to do is select your chosen measurement, flip the bottle, and twist the lid to dispense the spice.</p>
<p class="p1">The creators are father-daughter duo Mark, who invented the pineapple slicer 30 years ago, and Erika, who helped bring her dad&rsquo;s new idea to life through W.E. Cornell and REV Ithaca Prototype to Production Accelerator. Mike first got the idea 25 years ago, but it really kicked into gear as <a href="https://dornob.com/kfc-is-creating-3d-printed-meat-of-the-future/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">3D printers</a> became more common and he was able to print his first working prototype.</p>
<p class="p1"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Helpful graphic shows all the components included with the CassCaps bundle." height="751" src="https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/680x751_85/805/casscaps-included-605805.png" width="680" class="" title="CassCaps Kit Components  " /></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">They explain that their &#8220;</span><span class="s2">caps are proudly made in the USA with FDA-compliant and BPA-free materials. Our packaging is 100-percent recyclable, biodegradable, and made from recycled materials. Our glass jars are recyclable, made with FDA-compliant materials, and dishwasher-safe. Whether you want to measure out 1/4 teaspoon or a full tablespoon, CassCaps has got you covered. With each twist taking less than a second to complete, measuring your desired amount is fast and easy.&rdquo;</span><span class="s2"></span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s2">&ldquo;We&#8217;ve spent over two years crafting, refining, and perfecting CassCaps to provide home cooks (YOU!) the best experience while cooking. After over 100 iterations, 150 different 3D-printed models, and extensive testing, we are confident you will love CassCaps as much as we do.&rdquo;</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s2"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="GIF illustrates the simple processes by which CassCaps works. " height="382" src="https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/680x383_85/796/casscaps-twist-605796.gif" width="680" class="" title="CassCaps Spice Jar Measuring Lid  " /></span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s2"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="CassCaps work great with basically any spice you can imagine!

<p class="p6">CassCaps just completed a round of Kickstarter crowdfunding to help get their product into the homes of both amateur and pro cooks everywhere. Packages start at $24 for two black CassCaps, two glass jars, and a set of labels, but you can save more by grabbing the Dozen Set for $89. Since they can be used with just about any spice jar you already have in your kitchen, they&#8217;re pretty versatile, too, and the ability to measure straight from the jar is definitely an upgrade. The fact that they&#8217;re made in the USA with 100-percent recyclable and biodegradable materials is just the icing on the cake.</p>
<p class="p6"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="They might not be your standard spice jar lids, but CassCaps are still perfect for neat storage in a drawer or cupboard.

<p class="p6">A lot of products with a similar &#8220;As Seen on TV&#8221; vibe are viewed with skepticism about whether they&#8217;re actually necessary or just another silly gadget that&#8217;s going to collect dust in the back of the junk drawer. Whether that&#8217;s true for you might depend on how much you cook, and how judicious you are about following recipes to a tee. But if you&#8217;ve accidentally poured too much salt straight into your other ingredients one too many times, you might find the prospect of a little more accuracy to be worth the risk.</p><p>The post <a href="https://dornob.com/measure-spices-straight-from-the-bottle-with-casscaps/">Measure Spices Straight from the Bottle With CassCaps</a> first appeared on <a href="https://dornob.com">Dornob</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>

					<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="p1"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="A beautifully furnished tiny home kitchen, complete with all the appliances an off-grid inhabitant could ever need. " height="427" src="https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/640x427_85/442/Tiny-house-kitchen-602442.jpg" width="640" class="" title="Tiny Home Kitchen " /></p>
<p class="p1">When your entire house measures a mere 200 square feet or less, there&rsquo;s usually no room for an abundance of normal-sized appliances. If you&rsquo;re thinking about making the jump to living tiny, you&rsquo;ll want to start by considering which items you can&rsquo;t live without &mdash; and how you&rsquo;ll slot them all into your floor plan.</p>
<p class="p1">Most tiny house residents find a few basic appliances to be absolute essentials: a water heater, a cooktop, a refrigerator, and a heater or air conditioner. Whether you decide to add on an oven, freezer, washing machine, clothes dryer, microwave, generator, electric ventilation system, and/or various additional kitchen gadgets is up to you.</p>
<p class="p1">Your setup will also vary depending on whether you plan to be grid-connected at all times, fully off-grid, or somewhere in between. For flexibility, many people choose appliances that are capable of running on propane or DC power as well as AC power.</p>
<p class="p1">Sized just right for tiny homes and versatile enough for most applications, these five essential appliances are a great way to jump-start your shopping list:</p>
<h2 class="p1"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00HTN4KIE/?coliid=I3S95QJQR8TCJH&amp;colid=3N6MQC3IMYCJ&amp;psc=1&amp;ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Atwood 3-Burner Cooktop</a></h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Atwood 3-Burner Cooktop" height="482" src="https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/908x482_85/445/Tiny-House-Appliances-Cooktop-602445.jpg" width="907" class="" title="Atwood 3-Burner Cooktop" /></p>
<p class="p5">Drop-in gas cooktops are affordable, attractive, and easy to use, and you can find them in both two and four-burner models. This one from Atwood, measuring just 16 by 20 inches, runs on propane and doesn&rsquo;t require connection to power for ignition &mdash; just use a lighter or a match. If you really need an oven, too, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Atwood-DOMETIC-RV-1735-Stainless-Campers/dp/B07YM1ZHLZ/ref=pd_sbs_263_2/131-1409916-0435533?_encoding=UTF8&amp;pd_rd_i=B07YM1ZHLZ&amp;pd_rd_r=5d46e8a3-ea4c-40a7-9f94-1bf53cfb5170&amp;pd_rd_w=rsVuJ&amp;pd_rd_wg=wCtYC&amp;pf_rd_p=bdc67ba8-ab69-42ee-b8d8-8f5336b36a83&amp;pf_rd_r=PSHDJ0RBPF85SNM4T2DA&amp;psc=1&amp;refRID=PSHDJ0RBPF85SNM4T2DA" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">similar models</a> include one without taking up too much more precious space.</p>
<h2 class="p5"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/SMETA-Propane-Refrigerator-Fridge-Freezer/dp/B077D4YRML/ref=sr_1_2?dchild=1&amp;keywords=smeta+propane+refrigerator&amp;qid=1595016241&amp;s=appliances&amp;sr=1-2" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">SMETA 3-Way Refrigerator</a></h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="SMETA 3-Way Refrigerator" height="952" src="https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/987x952_85/443/Tiny-Home-Appliances-SMETA-Refrigerator-602443.jpg" width="987" class="" title="SMETA 3-Way Refrigerator" /></p>
<p class="p5">Available in sizes ranging from 2.1 cubic feet to 9.4 cubic feet, this off-grid refrigerator can be hooked up to grid power, run on a <a href="https://dornob.com/solar-panel-blinds-provide-shade-and-produce-energy-at-the-same-time/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">solar panel system</a>, or connected to a propane tank. The larger models include a freezer, and while they&rsquo;re still not full-sized fridges, they hold a lot for their size. <a href="https://www.dometic.com/en-us/us" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Dometic</a> is one of the best-known brands producing refrigerators like these, but many tiny home residents say the lower-priced SMETA is just as good.</p>
<h2 class="p5">Mirage Ventus 12,000 BTU Ductless Mini-Split</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Mirage Ventus 12,000 BTU Ductless Mini-Split" height="1000" src="https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1000x1000_85/444/Tiny-Home-Appliances-Mirage-Mini-Split-602444.jpg" width="1000" class="" title="Mirage Ventus 12,000 BTU Ductless Mini-Split" /></p>
<p class="p5">Diminutive wood or propane-powered marine stoves are a popular choice for heating tiny houses, and they can offer a lot of cozy ambiance, to boot. But a more versatile option, if you have the electricity to spare, is an energy-efficient ductless mini-split air conditioner and heater combo. The condenser can be mounted to the tongue of your tiny house trailer while the indoor unit is mounted to an interior wall, high up out of the way. Models like this one from Mirage make temperature control easy throughout the year and use a lot less power than a conventional A/C unit.</p>
<h2 class="p1"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Residential-Tankless-Fahrenheit-Liquefied-Apartments/dp/B081CKZBP7/ref=sr_1_10?crid=31PTJ461N2DNH&amp;dchild=1&amp;keywords=propane+tankless+water+heater&amp;qid=1595017291&amp;s=hi&amp;sprefix=propane+%2Ctools%2C247&amp;sr=1-10" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Camplux Tankless Propane Water Heater</a></h2>
<p><strong><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Camplux Tankless Propane Water Heater" height="955" src="https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1001x955_85/440/Tiny-Home-Appliances-Camplux-Water-Heater-602440.jpg" width="1001" class="" title="Camplux Tankless Propane Water Heater" /></strong></p>
<p class="p1">On-demand hot water is a beautiful thing. This tankless, space-saving unit by Camplux runs on propane, offers a digital temperature display, and puts out 2.64 gallons per minute. While a lot of similar compact propane water heaters must be used outdoors for safety, this one comes with a horizontal venting pipe, exhaust fan, and safe electronic ignition system. Even better, it actually doesn&rsquo;t look half bad hanging on the wall.</p>
<h2 class="p1"><a href="https://www.lg.com/us/washer-dryer-combos/lg-WM3488HW-front-load-washer" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">LG Compact Washer/Dryer Combo</a></h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="LG Compact Washer/Dryer Combo" height="620" src="https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/940x620_85/439/Tiny-Home-Appliances-LG-Washer-Dryer-Combo-602439.jpg" width="940" class="" title="LG Compact Washer/Dryer Combo" /></p>
<p class="p1">Few people have time to wash their clothes by hand these days, and laundromats aren&rsquo;t so fun either. If you really want the ability to do laundry in your tiny home, a combo washer/dryer is the way to go. LG&rsquo;s 2.3-cubic-foot model gives you almost the same capacity and all the same functions you&rsquo;d get from standard washers and dryers in a single package measuring 24&rdquo; x 33 1/2&rdquo; x 25 1/4&rdquo;. Is it a bit of a luxury in a tiny house? Yeah, but it&#8217;s worth it.</p>

					<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-weight: 400">The kitchen is the heart of the modern home in 2020, but it hasn&#8217;t always been that way. In fact, early homes had no real designated space for cooking and eating, with families relying on nothing more than a table near the fire. Then, with the introduction of modern appliances like the <a href="https://dornob.com/chinas-haier-wins-ces-tech-awards-for-casarte-iot-refrigerator/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">refrigerator</a>, the world saw the need for personal spaces where food could be cooked, eaten, and stored all at once. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">Throughout it all, kitchen design has evolved based on trends and needs. What once was a rustic and functional part of the home, is now a vital space for entertaining, gathering, and food exploration. Of course, other rooms in the home have also undergone changes with the introduction of things like indoor plumbing. But the kitchen has perhaps seen the longest list of innovations in the form of appliances, structural requirements, and interior design. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">Interested in tracking this unique evolution, the creative team at <a href="https://www.homeadvisor.com/r/500-years-of-kitchen-design/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">HomeAdvisor</a> recently did a deep dive into the past 500 years of kitchen design. They then put together a digital compilation of all the changes they observed over that time.</span></p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="HomeAdvisor's rendering of a 16th-century Tudor Manor Kitchen " height="900" src="https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1200x900_85/679/01_1500s-kitchen-593679.jpg" width="1200" class="" title="16th-century Tudor Manor Kitchen " /></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">For accuracy, the HomeAdvisor team worked with noted historians Sara Pennell, Senior Lecturer in History at the University of Greenwich and author of <em>The Birth of the English Kitchen,</em> and Nancy Carlisle, Senior Curator of Collections at Historic New England. They then began with a kitchen in England circa 1520, moving to America as the new world evolved and bringing the interiors all the way into modern times.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">The first example is a 16th-century Tudor manor kitchen (1520-1620), whose cold stone walls are counterbalanced by the warmth of the multifunctional fireplace. Cast iron frying pans and a quintessential cauldron above the fire show the nature of cooking during these times, while ceramic pots, the primary means of storage then, line the shelves. Nearby, a wooden trough functions as a bread-making station.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="HomeAdvisor's rendering of a 17th-Century Late Stuart-Era Kitchen" height="900" src="https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1200x900_85/682/02_1600s-kitchen-593682.jpg" width="1200" class="" title="17th-Century Late Stuart-Era Kitchen" /></span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">Next, the 17th-century Late Stuart-era kitchen (1680-1720) boasts improvements in overhead candle lighting, storage, and display options. Teacups grace the space as afternoon tea becomes more common, and a cast iron coal gate makes the hearth more efficient to use. Another new device called a mechanical roasting jack was set up with a series of pulleys and weights that would automatically turn the spit inside the hearth, freeing up the cook for other tasks.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="HomeAdvisor's rendering of a 18th-Century Colonial Williamsburg Kitchen." height="900" src="https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1200x900_85/678/03_1700s-kitchen-593678.jpg" width="1200" class="" title="18th-Century Colonial Williamsburg Kitchen" /></span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">With the 18th-century Colonial Williamsburg kitchen (1720-1780) comes another light fixture upgrade and the advent of tile flooring, along with newer hearth features such as a swinging iron crane used for supporting Dutch ovens and other cookware.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="HomeAdvisor's rendering of a 19th-Century Victorian-Era Kitchen." height="900" src="https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1200x900_85/680/04_1800s-kitchen-593680.jpg" width="1200" class="" title="19th-Century Victorian-Era Kitchen" /></span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">The 19th-century Victorian-era kitchen (1870s) features the very obvious addition of <a href="https://dornob.com/ippin-project-a-new-source-of-japanese-fine-living/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">modern cabinetry</a> used for storing food and other cooking implements. Another innovation is the wood or coal-burning stove as a replacement to the traditional hearth. Not only is this form of cooking infinitely more efficient, but it also spares the cook from stooping over the fire. The kitchen sink was another enhancement of the century, although it still wasn&rsquo;t the critical component it is today. Ceramic is still the storage option of choice, although much of it is now housed inside the cabinets.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="HomeAdvisor's rendering of a 20th-Century Fitted Kitchen." height="900" src="https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1200x900_85/681/05_1900s-kitchen-593681.jpg" width="1200" class="" title="20th-Century Fitted Kitchen" /></span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">In the 20th-century fitted kitchen (1960s), electric appliances and other conveniences finally enter the scene. An electric refrigerator offers storage for perishable goods, and the <a href="https://dornob.com/pizzeria-pronto-a-mini-pizza-oven-for-your-gas-cooktop/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">gas range</a> modernizes the cooking experience. Plus, new materials for counter and floor coverings make the space easier to clean. Even small appliances such as toasters and coffee pots change the face of the kitchen during this time.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="HomeAdvisor's rendering of a 21st-Century Designer Kitchen." height="900" src="https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1200x900_85/677/06_2000s-kitchen-593677.jpg" width="1200" class="" title="21st-Century Designer Kitchen " /></span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">Jumping into the 21st-century designer kitchen (2020), we see ultra-efficient and streamlined design coupled with copious entertaining and gathering space.</span></p>
</p>

					<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-weight: 400">We all need a little help now and then, and that may never be more true than it is when it comes to preparing meals. Now, a new all-in-one product by <a href="https://www.cookingpal.com" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">CookingPal</a> called Julia could be the kitchen assistant you&rsquo;ve been dreaming of. While she can&rsquo;t offer life advice, she&#8217;s a true partner in all things related to cooking, including teaching you new techniques, cooking a variety of different ways, and even helping to clean up when dinner&#8217;s over.</span></p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="The AI-powered " height="1320" src="https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1320x1320_85/989/julia1-587989.png" width="1320" class="" title="CookingPal Julia " /></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">Julia has multiple features that are sure to come in handy during the prep and cooking phases of your favorite meals. She can </span><span style="font-weight: 400">weigh your food for accuracy with a built-in scale and measuring cup. Then <em>you</em> can tap into the chopping feature, which will save you the mess of a separate cutting board and knife. If chopping&#8217;s not cutting it, Julia can also grind or blend your ingredients. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">Once the food is all inside her three-liter stainless steel bowl, just ask Julia to knead, boil, steam, or grill it for you. You choose the settings, she does the cooking. That includes whisking or emulsifying as necessary, too, although some tasks do require additional accessories. But even with those components, Julia is still compact enough to keep readily available on the counter, so you won&rsquo;t ever have to worry about finding enough cupboard space for her.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="The AI-powered " height="450" src="https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/879x450_85/988/julia-main-587988.jpg" width="879" class="" title="CookingPal Julia " /></span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">She&#8217;s undeniably handy at doing her share of the cooking, but Julia can also make you a better cook by providing step-by-step instructions for you to follow. On top of that, she comes with a separate <a href="https://dornob.com/could-samsungs-foldable-smartphone-make-life-easier/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">tablet screen</a> that allows you to control the cooking unit, find and adapt recipes, give voice commands, and monitor your meal through a central hub. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">Never cooked okra before? Just ask Julia for recipes. Not sure what to have for dinner? Julia is your go-to girl. Listen from the two speakers as she guides you through the required steps and you watch on the screen, which itself can be angled for easy viewing with a built-in table stand. You can also use the camera to take <a href="https://dornob.com/chic-l-a-fitness-studio-paris-pilates-is-intentionally-instagram-worthy/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram-worthy</a> pictures as you cook.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="The CookingPal Julia's accompanying tablet screen/control hub." height="380" src="https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/676x380_85/987/julia-587987.jpg" width="676" class="" title="CookingPal Julia - Tablet " /></span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">Julia even makes it easy to monitor dinner while you work in the garden or wash the car. From anywhere in the house, you can use the hub or remote control to check the temperature of meat or see how long until dinner is ready. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">CookingPal knows that sometimes figuring out what&rsquo;s for dinner is the biggest challenge of the process, so Julia is even equipped with AI technology to come up with a meal plan for you &mdash; simply provide access to the ingredients you have on hand, taking a picture with the hub camera and allowing Julia to use food-recognition software to recommend meal options based on those ingredients. When you run low on ingredients, you can use her integrated online shopping and delivery feature. </span></p>
<p>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=luHdZzSOtwE</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">Julia is packed with hundreds of recipes for every occasion, from hard-boiled eggs to something with a fancy French flair. She&rsquo;ll meet you where you&rsquo;re at skillwise with options for easy, basic, or advanced recipes. </span></p><p>The post <a href="https://dornob.com/cookingpal-julia-all-in-one-ai-powered-robot-makes-cooking-easier/">CookingPal Julia: All-In-One AI-Powered Robot Makes Cooking Easier</a> first appeared on <a href="https://dornob.com">Dornob</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>

					<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Although their newest line of AI and automated home appliances won&rsquo;t be available for purchase until June 2020, Samsung was eager to introduce their latest collection at this year&rsquo;s <a href="https://www.ces.tech" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Consumer Electronics Show (CES)</a> in Las Vegas.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Samsung's colorful, customizable BESPOKE refrigerator fits nicely with any decor." height="667" src="https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1000x667_85/970/sam5r-582970.jpg" width="1000" class="" title="Samsung's Smart BESPOKE Refrigerator " /></p>
<p>While their newest innovations include two ground-breaking refrigerator models, a revolutionary induction stove, a stackable cube cooling system for multiple rooms in your house, and an incredible shoe storage system, the real star of Samsung&#8217;s newest line this year was the futuristic Family Hub.</p>
<h2>Family Relations Made Easy</h2>
<p>John Herrington, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Home Appliances for Samsung Electronics America, was brimming with pride and enthusiasm as he introduced the 2020 Family Hub to the CES crowd. &ldquo;In the five years since we launched Family Hub, we have introduced innovations that reflect the new ways that busy, modern families are managing their daily lives,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;The latest Family Hub is the most innovative yet, with more personalized, intelligent features that enable busy families to stay better connected to one another.&rdquo;</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Inside Samsung's ultra-versatile Family Hub Refrigerator." height="1026" src="https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1920x1026_85/971/sam2-582971.jpg" width="1920" class="" title="Family Hub Refrigerator " /></p>
<p>Indeed, the 2020 Family Hub not only simplifies meal planning and <a href="https://dornob.com/can-robomart-succeed-as-a-self-driving-grocery-store-on-wheels/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">grocery shopping</a>, it also includes communication features that enable family members to share events, interests, and milestones from remote locations. No one misses a thing, regardless of whether they&rsquo;re out of town or just stuck in traffic and unable to be home in time for dinner.</p>
<h2>The Family Hub Refrigerator</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="Samsung's Smart New Family Hub refrigerator. " height="2000" src="https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/cimg/www.dornob.com/1131x2000_85/974/sam1-582974.jpg" width="1131" class="" title="Family Hub Refrigerator " /></p>
<p>AI-improved cameras inside this smart refrigerator scan what you have on hand, plan meals around those ingredients, and provide smart recipes based on a set of dietary guidelines you customize. It can plan meals for up to a week and prepare a shopping list of food items you need to replenish. In addition, Whisk, an AI invention recently attained by Samsung NEXT, adjusts recipes based on how many people are on your guest list, compiling a shopping list with items that can be used in multiple recipes.</p>
