Just-launched kitchen gadgets and cooking appliances for Aussie kitchens — air fryers, coffee machines, cookware and clever tools that change how you cook.
The short version: the Breville Barista Express ($599–$699) is the safer buy for most Australians — a proven machine, easy to find at a fair price, with the biggest accessory ecosystem in the country. The Sunbeam Barista Plus (~$531–$749) is worth a serious look only if you find it near the bottom of its price…
Quick verdict: In this Bambino Plus vs Dedica Arte comparison, the Breville Bambino Plus (from $487) is the better machine for milk-drink lovers thanks to its automatic steam wand and 3-second heat-up — but the De’Longhi Dedica Arte (from $199) is remarkable value if you’re happy to learn manual milk texturing. The price gap is…
There is a moment every home barista knows: you’ve ground the beans, you’ve dosed, and now you’re tamping — pressing down, twisting, second-guessing — while coffee grounds scatter across the bench. The Breville Barista Touch Impress (BES881) exists to delete that moment. At $1,899 on the Australian street (RRP $2,299), it’s the touchscreen espresso machine…
Breville’s Oracle series has always been the “money is no object” answer to home espresso — and the Oracle Jet (BES985) is the smartest one yet. At $3,349 direct from Breville Australia (or $3,099 at Bing Lee), it’s the machine that grinds, doses, tamps and textures your milk for you, then coaches you through the…
Here’s the cheapest way to own a real De’Longhi espresso machine in Australia: the Stilosa EC230, at $149 in black direct from De’Longhi Australia. It’s a proper 15-bar manual pump machine with a stainless steel boiler — not a toy, not a pod machine — and it’s been quietly sitting at this price while budget…
Philips’ most advanced air fryer is also its biggest — and right now, it’s the cheapest it’s ever been in Australia. The Philips 7000 Series Airfryer Combi XXXL Connected is clearing out at $349–$350 — though the $349 listings at Harvey Norman and Joyce Mayne are now showing out of stock, leaving Myer’s $350 as…
Air fryers have a size problem. Every dual-basket model promises twice the cooking, but side-by-side drawers eat up 40-plus centimetres of bench space — a dealbreaker in the apartments and small kitchens where air fryers live. Ninja’s answer is the DoubleStack XXXL 9.5L 2 Drawer Air Fryer: two 4.75L drawers stacked vertically instead of horizontally,…
Quick verdict The Russell Hobbs Heaton Espresso Machine (model RHCM2870) is one of the cheapest proper espresso machines you can buy in Australia — $189.95 RRP, and currently on sale for $170.95 at Harris Scarfe. Its party trick is dual brewing: it takes both ground coffee and Nespresso Original-style capsules, so it suits households split…
Quick verdict The Ninja Crispi Pro Australia release (model AS101ANZ) is the supersized follow-up to 2025’s hit Ninja Crispi — a 2050W, 6-in-1 glass air fryer that ditches the traditional drawer for clear CleanCrisp glassware you cook, serve and store in. It’s $399 in Australia, and you get a modular base that accepts 2.3L, 3.8L…

It’s currently $1,599 at JB Hi-Fi — $100 under its $1,699 RRP and the cheapest price in the country right now. You…
