Racy, high-end kitchen appliances
When you think of the name Bugatti you immediately visualize super-high-end Italian motor cars. Right?
And, when you think of kitchen appliances you generally think in terms of companies like Hamilton Beach, Oster, Black & Decker, Cuisinart, Proctor-Silex and all the others.
It’s now time to begin thinking about Bugatti’s new line of kitchen appliances as well.
How about a nice toaster?
The Casa Bugatti Volo 2-slice toaster is definitely a looker. It comes in chrome or an incredible racing red finish. It sports the usual features such as a two-slice capacity, darkness control, a bagel setting (Italian bagels?) and a defrost feature. The bread slots are approximately 1-inch wide and the toaster weighs in at a hefty 6-1/2 pounds.
Then there’s the blender.
The Vela 400-watt model. It has a glass jar which holds 1-1/2 liters of liquid, three speeds and pulse settings. There is no ice crusher or food processing attachments but it is very, very solid — the blender weighs something like 11 pounds!
Or, how about the new Vera electric tea kettle?
Beautifully styled. Holds 1.7 liters of water. Has electronic temperature controls. There is also a self-timers built-in that let you set, in advance, the exact hour and minute that your hot water will be ready and waiting. Thermal controls will also keep the Vera from overheating.
You might have noticed that I haven’t yet mentioned prices. That’s because I wanted you to keep reading. Each Bugatti device mentioned above has a suggested retail price of $299.99. Some are available for ordering on Amazon.com at the discount price of $249.99.
If all of this seems too much for you then you might want to forgo the electric tea kettle and settle for Bugatti’s attractive, old-fashioned stove-top model. The cute, 1-1/2 liter model number 86-7092C3 can be had at the bargain basement price of $149.99 (also on Amazon.com).
But for any of my readers who think these products are too inexpensive do I have something for you…
As you can see, Bugatti’s 15-bar (lots of water pressure) pump espresso machine is amazing looking.
It is capable of making 1 to 2 cups of espresso as well as steaming/frothing your milk for cappuccino-like drinks. It is capable of using either ground coffee or espresso pods (with the included adapter.) There’s even a cup warming plate for the perfect espresso experience. It’s a solid machine. I know because it weighs nearly 20 pounds.
The price? For you? $1,499.99! Luckily Amazon.com is discounting it down to $1,300.
The Bugattis come in that terrific red finish or in chrome. They seem like they’ll make wonderful holiday gifts.
