Newly released appliances we can’t stop talking about
Updated
It’s our job to stay across the latest and greatest appliances as they drop, and lately there have been some impressive products that are already changing the way we live.
From the microwave that air-fries (sorry to our airfryer, we have a new favourite) to the $199 pizza oven that cooks crispy ‘wood-fired’ pizza indoors and the coffee machine endorsed by David Beckham, if you’re looking for quality upgrades, let this be your starting point.

Panasonic 27L 1000W 4-in-1 Air Fryer Convection Microwave Oven, $549
Panasonic microwave Panasonic
You had us at air-frying microwave. But if you need more convincing, Panasonic has released a 4-in-1 microwave that bakes, grills, reheats and airfrys, essentially doing away with the extra appliances you’ve acquired to help out in the kitchen. The microwave features 19 auto menus, at the touch of a button, to help you perfect meals like jacket potatoes, pizza, fish and chips, and reheat your leftovers back to life. When you buy the microwave you’ll also get the air fry basket, a wire rack and an enamel baking tray included.
Ninja Luxe Café Pro Limited Edition Espresso Machine, $999.99
Ninja coffee machine Ninja
If you’ve been waiting for a coffee machine that looks as good as the coffee it makes, consider the Ninja Luxe Cafe Pro Espresso Machine. Not only does it feature barista-assist technology, this limited edition is also created in partnership with David Beckham – yep, the one and only – which is why this machine looks so sleek with its beaded matte-black stainless steel body and ebony wood handle. Features worth shouting about include the integrated tamper and grinder, weight-based dosing and the dual milk frothing system.
Kenwood My Pizzeria Pizza Oven, $199
Kenwood pizza oven Kenwood
Unless you have a decent-sized backyard or a massive balcony with adequate airflow, owning a pizza oven is out of reach. Kenwood realised this gap in the pizza-oven market and has answered the prayers of apartment dwellers with their affordable pizza oven. The compact appliance allows you to bake fresh pizza at 400 degrees in as little as 4 minutes on its removable pizza stone. There are no flames with this oven; rather a dual-element heating system with temperature controls to help you cook calzones, quesadillas, sandwiches or warm baked goods, as well as pizza, all from your kitchen bench.
For the price, $199, we’re yet to find an indoor oven that can serve up a slice this good.
Shark Chill Pill 3-in1 Personal Cooling System, $199.99
Shark Chill Pill Shark
If the weather forecasts are anything to go by, this summer is going to be a hot one, which is why the Shark Chill Pill is a smart investment to make now. The newly released 3-in-1 bladeless fan offers a high-speed fan with 10 levels of cooling as well as the option for ultra-fine misting to keep you cool on the go. The InstaChill feature is a cooling plate that chills on skin contact – it claims to lower your skin temp but up to 9 degrees. If you struggle with the heat or maybe you’re battling through perimenopause and want some relief when the hot flushes persist, this could be your saviour.
Dyson HushJet Purifier Compact, $549
Dyson air purifier Dyson
As the name suggests, this compact purifier is as quiet as a whisper as it purifies the air in your home and delivers powerful airflow. In Sleep mode it will do its job, capturing 99.97 per cent of ultrafine particles, gases and odours, at just 24dB, which is similar to soft rustling leaves. If the air quality in your home is a concern, you can trust Dyson’s latest piece of tech to take care of it.
