Backyard entertaining
There are a few big contenders when it comes to catering to dads who love cooking up a storm and promoting themselves to boss of the backyard:
-
Pizza oven | Gozney, Ooni - Give Dad the glorious gift of backyard bragging rights with a pizza oven. Portable or built-in, these ovens can pump out wood-fired-style pizzas in just a few minutes. $300 - $4,000
-
High-performance BBQ | Weber, Traeger - Upgrading Dad’s barbie setup as spring arrives is a clever tactic to make him King of the Grill by summer. Gas barbecues are convenient, charcoal delivers smoky flavour, and portable gas barbies are great for camping trips or picnics. $120 - $3,000+
-
Electric BBQ & smoker | Ninja Woodfire - Turn Dad into a legendary pitmaster without the fuss of gas or charcoal. The Ninja Woodfire Electric BBQ & Smoker delivers authentic smoky flavour while the SmartProbe does the monitoring – leaving Dad free to kick back and take the credit.
Home comforts
Heading indoors now, for the Dads who appreciate the kind of everyday upgrade that makes mornings smoother and evenings a little more relaxing.
-
Espresso coffee machine | Breville, Sunbeam, Smeg, DeLonghi - Let Dad skip the café queues by giving him café-quality coffee at home. Espresso machines come in a few flavours: fully automatic for supreme ease and ultra-fresh taste, pod Nespresso machines for mess-free mornings, or manual machines for dads who secretly fancy themselves baristas. $150 - $3,000+
-
Mini-LED TV | Samsung, LG - If Dad’s squinting at last decade’s flatscreen, it could be time for an upgrade. Mini-LED TVs display richer colours and brighter images than his old telly, thanks to thousands of tiny backlights paired with Quantum Dot technology. $900- $4,000
-
Wine fridge | LeCavist, Cantina - Help Dad protect his prized collection of pinots, cab savs and rieslings with a dedicated wine fridge. Regular kitchen fridges are just too cold for a good shiraz, but a wine cabinet delivers perfect, vibration-free cellar conditions. $350 - $5,000+
With warmer months on the way, more of us are turning our attention to alfresco and entertaining spaces. Appliances Online makes that easier with free, next-day delivery and 24/7 Australian-based phone and online support, so you can buy Dad an upgrade that will get real use well beyond Father's Day.
