Technivorm Moccamaster KBT Coffee Maker
This iconic design consistently ranked first in our taste tests. It’s a reliable 40-ounce capacity workhorse that brews a nuanced, flavorful pot. It comes with an insulated carafe and a unique filter basket switch that adjusts steep time.
Other things to know: Lacks extra features of our other picks, like timers or complex settings, but coffee connoisseurs will appreciate the taste. Pricey, but much longer warranty (5-years) and Moccamaster’s reputation for longevity make it a worthwhile investment.

Nespresso VertuoPlus
If convenience and caffeine are your greatest concerns when it comes to your morning coffee, the Nespresso VertuoPlus is the perfect machine. With an automatic lid and single-button operation, it’s effortlessly easy to use, and can brew espressos, 5-ounce gran lungos, and standard 8-ounce cups of coffee.
Other things to know: Mugs are unstable on drip tray. We didn’t love the coffee, but it was still a big step up from Keurig’s. Only uses Vertuo pods, which cost more than Original pods. On sale in gray.

Breville Smart Oven Air Fryer Pro
This smart oven performs just as well as an air fryer as it does a toaster oven, and offers specific settings for dehydrating, proofing, and slow cooking. In our tests, it crisped-up foods faster than traditional toaster ovens. It also has a generous two-rack capacity and offers multiple fan speeds.
Other things to know: Even on sale, notably more expensive than our other picks. “Super convection” fan speed is incredibly loud. Didn’t toast bread quite as evenly as other picks. We’d prefer a pizza stone over the included nonstick pizza pan. Matches the lowest price we’ve seen.

Cuisinart Core Custom 4-Cup Mini Chopper
This compact workhorse dices well and is more roomy than other options we tested. It offers two holes for frustration-free drizzling, and the button design is similar to that of full-size food processors, making it easy to operate.
Other things to know: A mini chopper won’t replace a full-size model. Struggles to effectively dice herbs, tearing rather than cutting cleanly and evenly. Clip the on-page coupon for the deal price.

Ooni Koda 16 Gas Powered Pizza Oven
Enjoy fast and delicious pizza this season with an outdoor oven that lights up with the turn of a dial. Not only is it spacious, but it can bake an obscene number of pies on one tank of propane. It reached a maximum temperature of 890 °F during our tests, and reliably outperformed all others we tried.
Other things to know: Also makes a great gift for dads, wedding registries, and more. An expensive, specialized cooking appliance. The best deal we’ve seen outside of occasional Costco sales.
