It’s official, the holidays are upon us! We’ve made Thanksgiving leftovers out of Thanksgiving leftovers, and your next door neighbor probably has their lights up already. It’s time to start crossing names off your gift list, whether it’s your spouse who loves craft beer or your mother-in-law who’s been looking for a new coffee maker.
We’ve rounded up some of our best-selling gift items on Compact Appliance, from the EdgeStar 21 Bottle Dual Zone Wine Cooler to the Schott Zwiesel Tritan Fortissimo Wine Goblet Glasses.
Below we’ve included gifts for a variety of price ranges and occasions, whether for a seasoned wine collector or the baking enthusiast.
Gifts for Your Favorite Wine Lover
Do you have a wine lover on your holiday list? For someone just venturing into the world of wines, a more compact unit such as the Koldfront Freestanding Dual Zone Wine Cooler holds 18 bottles and keeps wines at their optimal temperature with its dual zone feature.
For the sommelier with an expanding wine collection, the EdgeStar 166 Bottle Cooler offers plenty of space and the capability to be used as a freestanding or built-in unit. The wood-trimmed wire rim racks display bottles attractively with a wine cellar feel.
Elegant stemware is an excellent touch for any wine drinker. The right set of wine glasses creates a luxurious experience for your favorite bottles of wine, whether this Schott Zwiesel set of crystalware for Cabernets or stemless Riedel wine glasses that lend a contemporary feel to Viognoiers or Chardonnays. With the right stemware, wine collectors can serve their bottles in just the right way.
Gifts for the Coffee Lover & Espresso Connoisseur
In the mornings, we want coffee and we want it as quickly as possible. Keurig coffee makers are ideal for family and friends who like to be out the door quickly with a tasty mug of coffee in hand. The Keurig K10 Mini Plus Brewing System comes in a holiday red, white or platinum, and brews a perfect cup of coffee in under two minutes.
For the espresso connoisseur or simply someone who enjoys savoring their coffee beverages, the Jura-Capresso One-Touch Espresso Machine is perfect for the at-home barista. Capable of making a delectable cappuccino, café americano, latte, and even tea and hot chocolate, this machine features fine-foam technology and the holding capacity for 20 espressos. It’s ideal for after-dinner drinks and coffee shop-quality beverages in the morning.
Gifts for the Beer Geeks
One way to guarantee you’ll always be a hit at the party is by gifting a kegerator to the beer lover in your life. If your friend or family member is always trying a new craft brew or simply entertains frequently, the EdgeStar Ultra Low Temp Dual Tap Kegerator keeps full sized standard kegs or two sixth kegs always at the perfect drinking temperature. For a budding beer enthusiast or a way to keep it cold on the go, the Deluxe Mini Kegerator keeps beer cold whether tailgating or for RVs.
For a lower budget gift item that’s just as thoughtful, growlers are great for the consummate beer enthusiast. This Bukowski Quote Growler is a fun and stylish way to combine a love for the essential B’s: beer and books. Growlers can double as a cool, decorative item in a bar area or bachelor pad, like this HandCraft Glass Handle Growler.
To give someone on your gift list a restaurant or bar feel in the comfort of their own home, beverage coolers are the ideal way to keep drinks of all kinds chilled to the ideal temperature. This Extreme Cool Beverage Cooler holds 103 cans and 5 bottles with the guarantee of keeping your drink ice cold, capable of storing beverages as low as the mid thirties.
Gifts for When the Temperature Drops
The temperatures are dropping, ringing in that time of year where little sounds better than a sofa, a fireplace, a warm drink, and a book. For those on your gift list who live in a smaller space such as an apartment or cottage, or for those who simply don’t want the upkeep of a fireplace, the Duraflame Electric Stove offers cozy warm appeal with the realistic look of a fire, and it works easily in any room.
Both a statement piece and a place to keep warm, the Serendipity Wall Hanging Fireplace is a beautifully modern accent for any living space. It adds ambiance and can be used with or without heat year-round. When the temperature outside keeps dropping, a way to stay warm keeps the holiday cheer strong!
Gifts for the Baker
Baking artisanal goods has become a bit of a culinary trend, with pastries such as cupcakes and “cronuts” becoming just as trendy as what looks are in this season. For your friend who always brings the yummy goods to the party, or your mom who bakes brownies to die for, there are certain kitchen essentials that an avid baker just shouldn’t live without.
The KitchenAid Artisan Series Stand Mixer is a classic, beloved mixer that has been used for generations. With playful colors and a retro feel, this stand mixer is tough, with a 325-watt motor. It even comes with a dough attachment to mix the perfect pizza dough or pie crust.
