Just like the trends for paint color or kitchen designs, kitchen appliances also experience functionality or aesthetic alterations as companies release their newest products.  In 2024, many of the kitchen appliance trends focus on making your time in the kitchen more efficient.

Customizable Zone Refrigerators

Induction Cooktops

Induction cooktops may be different than what many people are used to, but they offer benefits like quick cooking and environmental friendliness.  Popular in Europe, manufacturers are looking for ways to offer more affordable options to entice customers in the US.

Multiple Mode Ovens

Ovens with multiple modes for cooking different foods are one of the kitchen appliance trends for 2024.  Companies are incorporating the popular air fry mode into ovens making the need for a separate smaller appliance null.  Speed ovens that cook faster are also gaining popularity.

Smart Dishwashers

Customizable spaces within a dishwasher make doing the dishes a simpler task.  GE Cafe’s CustomFit dishwasher features a top rack with smaller containers that can be moved to fit utensils along with a concentrated spray to clean stuck on food. The flexible silverware basket with a dedicated jet allows the owner to get utensils, straws, and cups in clean.

Built in Appliances

This trend ties into one of the kitchen trends of 2024, built-in appliances help to contribute to the sleek kitchen design that is rising in popularity.  Usually achieved in new builds or remodels where cabinets and appliances sizes are ordered at the same time, sleek kitchens create seamless lines.

Pops of Color

Appliances appear in a wide range of colors today other than white, black, and stainless steel.  Refrigerators that come in shades of blue, pink, and even customizable  as well as ovens make kitchens unique to the owner.
