Is a coffee maker a small appliance?

Coffee makers are included in the long list of small kitchen appliances. Coffee makers fit the criteria of sitting counter-top, being portable or semi-portable, being small in size and being operated for household tasks. Other small kitchen appliances include blenders, deep fryers, food processors, kitchen grills and toaster ovens.

Coffee makers are not only defined by their style and efficiency, but also by the type of brewer. There are several types of coffee makers, including espresso and specialty coffee machines, French coffee presses, moka pots and percolators. Small kitchen appliances can be purchased at many stores, such as Bed Bath & Beyond, Best Buy, Home Depot, Kohl’s and Walmart.
