At Home in the Modern World

kMix by De'Longhi

This month, kitchen and home appliance company De'Longhi is launching its new kMix breakfast collection. The foursome—which includes a two-slice toaster, coffee maker, pump espresso maker, and kettle—is a zippy, modern addition to the company's line. Take a peek at its new offerings.

Self-dubbed the company's "brightest idea yet," the collection features a bold color range. Each product is available in pink, blue, yellow, green, orange, white, black, red, and stainless steel.

The die-cast aluminum Two-Slice Toaster features the standard crumb stray but also boasts a trademarked Peek & View function that lets the user lift the bread to check its doneness without canceling the toasting.

The new kMix Coffee Maker brews up to five cups at a time, and its design includes an anti-drip mechanism so that there's less tidying up to do, even once the caffeine kicks in.

Right: The carafe handle was designed for comfort and to be easy to grip.

For those that prefer espresso, the new collection also includes a Pump Epresso Maker. The dual-function filter holder is sized for either E.S.E. pods or ground espresso so the choice is up to you.

Last but not least, the new kMix Kettle will boil up to 54-ounces of water at a time. The flip top means you can fill it under the kitchen faucet, and the water window near then handle will help you measure its fullness.
