Hot
stuff.
Just
when you thought it was safe to buy some actual food, Aldi go and put
a bunch of great gadgets up for sale at crazily low prices. Oh well,
you can eat next month, as you'll definitely want to empty your bank
account on this new range designed to kit out your kitchen with
everything you could hope for. We review the Aldi Kitchen Specialbuy
Range.
There
are also smaller bits like a Sandwich Toaster (£14.99), Small Marble
Effect Pans (£8.99), Mixing Bowls (£6.99), and Coffee Glasses
(£2.99). This makes the range the perfect opportunity to stock up on
essentials, as well as snagging some cut-price booty (we've got out
eye on that espresso maker for sure!). As ever, our dear chums at
Aldi have seen fit to furnish us with a small selection from the
Specialbuy range. Here's what we got, and what we made of it:
Sandwich
Toaster
We
were a bit embarrassed to not already own one of these, but are
bloody glad Aldi threw one in. A steal at less than fifteen quid, the
Sandwich Toaster is actually a three-in-one, possessing swappable
heating plates to cook paninis and waffles, as well as the standard
toasted sandwiches.
Large
Slow Cooker
This
one we really couldn't believe: a big slow cooker for only £16.99...
and it isn't a huge pile of crap! The decent capacity is plenty big
enough to slow cook a whole bird (ooo, pardon!), while the settings
knob (ooo, pardon!) features three levels of cooking intensity.
Milk
Frother
The
perfect way to accompany an espresso maker? Why, yes... a milk
heating and frothing gadget. This one is great in that it can either
heat your milk or just froth it (or both, obviously), while
possessing a handle which lets you easily pick it up and pour.
Coffee
Glasses
Although
the Kitchen range includes a few different styles of drinking
receptacles, we received the two pack of liqueur coffee glasses.
Solidly made and with handles, these are perfect for Baileys lattes
or Baileys hot chocolate or, if you can't be bothered to make the
coffee, just Baileys.
