The idea that Home Depot sells kitchen appliances like waffle irons, panini presses, slow cookers, and pressure cookers isn’t particularly surprising. After all, kitchen items fall into a small overlap between home improvement and home goods stores. What’s more of a surprise is that Home Depot’s website carries a wide array of kitchen appliances from Uncanny Brands, featuring a ridiculous selection of licensed intellectual property from across the entire pop culture landscape.
Maybe a Mandalorian waffle iron featuring Grogu doesn’t jump out at you, but what about a Bob Ross slow cooker, waffle iron, or pop-up toaster that imprints the face of the ASMR predecessor who taught us all how to paint fluffy clouds on “The Joy of Painting”?
Are you a Pokémon fan? You might enjoy Uncanny Brands’ Pokéball-shaped toaster or popcorn maker. They’re joined by several waffle irons featuring images of the most well-known characters from the franchise, such as Pikachu, Charizard, Squirtle, and Bulbasaur.
What about Star Wars? There’s the Death Star-shaped waffle iron that makes Death Star-themed waffles, an R2-D2-shaped popcorn maker, a Darth Vader toaster that makes lightsaber noises (for some reason), a Millennium Falcon-shaped waffle iron that makes Millennium Falcon-shaped waffles, and even more Grogu-themed items, including a toaster that makes toast with Grogu’s face on it, a grilled cheese sandwich maker, and a cake pop maker.
There’s more, but you get the idea. Uncanny Brands makes a lot of products like these, and HomeDepot.com stocks them.
