Finally, You Can Paint Your Kitchen to Match Your Slow Cooker

Crock-Pot and Valspar are the duo we didn’t know we needed.

Finally, You Can Paint Your Kitchen to Match Your Slow Cooker

Crock-Pot, a well-known slow cooker brand, has collaborated with Valspar to introduce six innovative slow-cooker colors, each accompanied by matching paint swatches. This exciting collaboration aims to transform kitchens and align them with the latest color trends. The timing of this launch is particularly strategic, as it precedes the fall season, which marks the peak of slow cooker usage.

Interior design enthusiasts have been increasingly drawn to color-drenching and using stylish appliances as focal points in their spaces. Mallory Fuller-Guzman, a senior manager at Newell Brands, expressed that the primary goal was to reimagine the slow cooker as a visually appealing and fitting addition to modern kitchens, functioning both as a reliable appliance and an attractive design element.

The new Crock-Pots are designed to encourage homeowners to create personalized spaces that reflect their unique lifestyles. Considering the popularity of blue as a home color trend this summer, it is not surprising that Valspar named Cottage Door as their 2027 Color of the Year, further solidifying blue's potential to become the next big trend.

The partnership between Crock-Pot and Valspar is not the only effort to make kitchens more aesthetically pleasing. On the same day as the announcement, KitchenAid unveiled its newest stand mixer, The Luminaire, in a shade called Peppercorn Blue. As popular opinion suggests, the year 2027 may indeed become a time of change, with the potential shift from old-fashioned kitchens to more modern, blue-toned designs.

The choice of color ultimately depends on the individual's preference and the specific Crock-Pot color that resonates with their personal style.
