The kitchen is the heart of every home – big or small; it’s where all the action happens and to where the family gravitates. Yet, millions of families – especially those with limited kitchen space – are faced with the untimely chore of creating and maintaining a clutter-free kitchen. From décor to dishware to cooking appliances, the counter-top is often left in chaos – leaving no space for actual cooking.

The makers of the Black & Decker® SPACEMAKER™ lines are well aware of this challenge and have re-designed the SPACEMAKER™ line, now offering two new lines of under-the-cabinet appliances that offer space-saving solutions to consumers. The new lines allow consumers to regain the intended utility of their kitchen space, while making it aesthetically pleasing.

To help clear away the counter clutter, Black & Decker SPACEMAKER appliances now offer two very different looks – the SPACEMAKER Plus Line and SPACEMAKER Traditional Line. The new Save-A-Plug™ feature, which is available on the SPACEMAKER coffeemaker and the toaster oven, allows all four appliances to occupy only one wall outlet; and the cord management system eliminates excess appliance cords by inserting excess cord into a channel on the back of the unit preventing unsightly cords from hanging. The full lines include a coffeemaker, mini food processor/grinder, can opener/knife sharpener and toaster oven. Each product is sold separately to give consumers the freedom to choose the products they want and need in their kitchen.

Black & Decker SPACEMAKER appliances provide a quick, efficient and cost-effective way to remodel your kitchen, eliminating counter-top clutter and incorporating more organization into your life – and home,” said Carmen E. Garcia, Black & Decker brand portfolio manager for Applica. “SPACEMAKER appliances make it easy to get the most effective use out of your space, while allowing you to mix and match appliances that cater to your wants and needs in the kitchen.

Any chef will tell you that when equipping a kitchen, one of the most important investments you can make is in good quality cookware.  BlueStar designed its cookware specifically to handle the rigors of high-heat cooking.

BlueStar cookware features try-ply construction – utilizing a thin layer of highly conductive aluminum wrapped in two layers of professional grade stainless steel – to produce the perfect combination of quick and consistent heat conductivity.

The durable, outside stainless steel layer provides durability, while the professional-grade stainless steel interior layer ensures an even cooking surface; the cookware's aluminum core provides quick and even heat distribution. The combination of stainless steel and aluminum results in a product that not only heats quickly and evenly, but is also easy to clean and is durable enough to last a lifetime.

BlueStar cookware also features easy-grip, ergonomic handles that stay cool during stovetop cooking and are designed for maximum comfort and ease of use.  The extra-large handles provide increased finger clearance; the stock pots and sauce pans feature helper handles, making the cookware easier to transport when full. Each piece of cookware is dishwasher safe and oven-safe up to 500°F.

Available now on BlueStar's online store – in both a 5 piece set and an 8 piece set. The 5 piece set retails for $395 and the 8 piece set retails for $595. The 5 piece set includes a 6 quart stock pot with cover; a 3 quart sauce pot with cover; and a 10-inch fry pan. The 8 piece set also includes an 8-inch fry pan and a 2-quart sauce pan with cover.
