8. Mr. Coffee Café Frappe, Mr. Coffee, $75

When I learned about this next product I thought “How silly,” but after checking user reviews, I found that it received hundreds of raves and 5-star ratings. It’s the Mr. Coffee Café Frappe, a single appliance that automatically brews and mixes to create blended coffee drinks similar to what you get at your local Starbucks. It combines a one-cup coffee brewer with a powerful blender. It takes three minutes to brew the coffee and then blend your drink. You fill the blender with ice, milk and other ingredients, and then turn it on once the coffee is brewed. While it still seems a little unnecessary, it worked quite well and fits into a tiny space.
