CHICAGO— Hamilton Beach will showcase several new small electrics with the focus on products that offer multi-functionality.
The company’s 2-in-1 Oven & Toaster is designed to allow consumers to free up counter space. According to the company, the toaster oven features many functions traditionally found on a similar unit, but also offers an extra wide, long-slot toaster across the top. Retail price is $79.99.
With the trend of multi-use one-pot meals remaining popular, Hamilton Beach is debuting its 3.5-quart casserole slow cooker. Offering the same functionality of a traditional slow cooker, the rectangular unit allows users to make a variety of dishes including casseroles, lasagnas and desserts.
In addition, the unit’s stay or go design is designed to help messy spills and manual controls allow the user to select high, low or warm settings. Retail price is $39.99.
The 6-cup (cooked) capacity digital rice cooker is touted by the company as offering the home cook the ability to serve a well-rounded meal without using another cooking device. Equipped with a non-stick cooking bowl, ingredients can be pre-cooked or browned before adding grains such as rice. Vegetables, meats and fish can also be steamed while the rest of the meal cooks. Suggested retail price is $27.99.
In the coffee segment, Hamilton Beach is showcasing its TruCount 12-cup coffeemaker. The unit features an integrated scale that automatically measures the amount of coffee added to the brew basket. Retail price is $79.99.
