Four families, no model names yet

A family is a kind of work. A model is a specific machine. This page stays with the family until a written reply names the machine.

Boil

Kettles and hot-water carafes. For water at a temperature you can name.

Use Boil for tea, pour-over, or a pot you do not want to watch. In the letter, give the empty width, how the lid opens, and the height.

• We do not describe a kettle as a device for the body.
• We do not name a minute count until a written reply attaches the maker sheet.

Blend

Blenders and personal jars. For drinks and sauces, with room for the lid.

Say whether you need a full jar or one serving. In the letter, give the empty width, how the lid comes off, and the jar height.

• We do not describe an effect on the person who drinks.
• We do not invent a power number that is not in the written reply.

Bake

Counter ovens for a tray. The empty width decides if the cavity is even discussed.

Use Bake when the food needs an enclosed box. In the letter, give the empty width, how the door swings, and the height of the tray.

• We do not invent the gap above the box. The maker sheet comes with the written reply.
• We do not call it a replacement for a built-in range.

Crisp

Air-crisp baskets. Moving hot air is a way to cook.

Use Crisp for a basket, not for a plan about the person eating. In the letter, give the empty width, how the basket pulls out, and the height it needs.

• We do not turn the basket into a plan for the person eating.
• We do not name a capacity until the machine is in the written reply.
