The Most Expensive Kitchen Gadgets

IFA Technology Fair

Whether it’s an expensive oven range or a stainless steel microwave, one place that everyone seems to spend lots of money on in their house is the kitchen. And while we understand that it’s important to be comfortable in your own house, we’re not so sure that having expensive appliances and gadgets makes the person become a better cook or the food to taste any better. Still, because folks can’t help themselves, here are the most expensive kitchen gadgets.

5. Hammacher Juicer – $9,900

Can you believe that something as simple as a juicer is actually close to $10,000? While one might assume that all it takes to juice something is squeeze it against another thing with force to get the juice out, the Hammacher Juicer is a bit more than that—squeezing nearly 30 oranges every single minute for a perfect cup each time.

4. La Cornue Rotisserie – $10,000

No matter what type of meat your taste buds savor, La Cornue Rotisserie will make sure it’s cooked with amazing flavor whenever you use it. Built to optimize heat circulation perfectly, the meat will be both juicy and tasty once you eat it.

3. Victoria Arduino Venus Century Espresso Machine – $20,000

Not only does this machine look like it’s a million bucks, but the Victoria Arduino Venus Century Espresso Machine is also pretty darn difficult to get your hands on—with only 100 pieces being made. With so many people spending $5 on their coffee every single day, this might be the best way to cut down those costs—assuming you can find one.

2. Meneghini Arredamenti Refrigerator – $41,000

Looking more like it was designed by a luxury Italian car company, the Meneghini Arredamenti Refrigerator isn’t just an oversized fridge that keeps food and drinks cold, but something that looks like it should be in an art museum somewhere. Depending on what your taste is, this thing can come in a variety of finishes, but be prepared to spend quite a few dollars on customizing it.

1. Sveid Custom-Made Corkscrew – $70,000

Yes, you’re reading that correctly—a corkscrew is more expensive as many luxury cars out there—and it doesn’t even get you from point A to point B. Still, assuming you want and engineers’ dream come true, you might consider purchasing one. Built from titanium in either yellow or eighteen carat platinum, this piece will impress any wine-drinking guest.
