Its 1875 watts enable meals to be cooked a dozen different ways, including Rotisserie, Convection, Toast and Broil. Its digital controls, with large blue backlit display and exact heat sensor maintain precise oven temperature, while the nonstick interior and front pull-out crumb tray make it easy to clean after each use.

The blade grinder automatically grinds whole beans and dispenses ground coffee for the freshest, most flavorful coffee every time. And, it’s easy to clean: All removable parts are dishwasher safe!


CastLite™ Non-Stick Cast Iron Cookware; everyday retail price: 12" Fry Pan with Helper Handle: $49.95 

This new lightweight, non-stick cast-iron cookware weighs up to half the amount of the company’s traditional cast iron, while offering the same exceptional performance.

This dishwasher-safe, induction-ready cookware also comes equipped with riveted, cool grip stainless steel handles and an attractive porcelain enamel exterior.

Cuisinart’s SmarTrack Storage Solutions; everyday retail price: $3.99 for a 7-oz. container to $29.99 for a 12-piece set  

With this innovative new concept, you can quickly and easily organize items using a dedicated smart phone app and QR codes that are directly integrated into storage containers. SmarTrack can calculate the expiration dates of hundreds of items. Simply input the food type, state of the food (raw or cooked) and storage location and the app will set an expiration date, and automatically alert you before food goes bad. The app also keeps track of where items are being stored, so nothing will ever be misplaced. The SmarTrack storage containers themselves feature air- and water-tight technology, and a spill-proof secure seal. The odor and stain-resistant containers also include an area for labeling, and are freezer-, microwave- and dishwasher-safe. Cuisinart SmarTrack Storage is available in sets and as open stock.

Happy gifting!
