Kylin Kitchen Appliances & Home Essentials

What Is Kylin?

Kylin is a kitchen and home appliance brand built around one core idea: materials that touch your food or water should never compromise health. Founded with a focus on ceramic and stainless steel construction, Kylin avoids PTFE and PFOA coatings across its rice cooker range, using natural ceramic inner pots instead of chemical non-stick layers.

The brand's stainless steel products use food-grade 304 or 316 grade steel, the same grade commonly used in surgical instruments and food processing equipment, chosen for its resistance to corrosion and metal leaching. Across more than 100 SKUs sold through Hello Kitchen, Kylin spans five core categories: rice cookers and slow cookers, kettles and water dispensers, woks and cookware, tableware, and home organisation products including storage cabinets and shower filters.

Kylin products are covered by a 2 year warranty on eligible appliances, with replacement parts (such as ceramic inner pots) sold separately for extended product life.

Kylin Rice Cookers — Health-Focused Ceramic Cooking

Kylin's rice cooker range centres on non-coated ceramic inner pots, avoiding the PTFE and PFOA found in many conventional non-stick liners. The ceramic surface is fired at high temperature and relies on natural non-stick properties rather than a synthetic coating, which means there's no risk of coating degradation or flaking into food over time.

Sizes range from 1.2L mini cookers suited to singles or dorm use, up to 4L models feeding families of six or more. Several models also support Chinese-style water stewing, a slower method that produces clearer broths and better preserves nutrients compared to standard pressure or rapid-boil settings. For the complete range with detailed specifications and capacity comparisons, see our dedicated Kylin Rice Cooker collection.

Kylin Slow Cookers — Traditional Stewing, Modern Convenience

Kylin's slow cooker range uses the same materials philosophy as its rice cookers, favouring ceramic and ceramic-glazed inner pots over synthetic non-stick coatings. The purple clay pot slow cookers (available in 4L and 5L) draw on a traditional Chinese clay pot method, which is prized for producing richer, more concentrated broths than standard metal slow cookers.

For smaller households, the compact 0.7L multi stew slow cooker uses a sealed ceramic liner and a gentle water stewing method suited to single servings of soup, tonic stews, bird's nest, or baby porridge, preserving nutrients that faster cooking methods can break down. A stainless steel and ceramic pot steamer model rounds out the range, combining slow cooking with a steaming rack for two-in-one meal preparation.

Whether you're after a large clay pot for weekend batch cooking or a compact stewer for daily single-serve meals, the range covers households from one person to family-sized gatherings.

Kylin Kettles & Water Dispensers

Kylin's kettle range is built on food-grade 304 stainless steel or borosilicate-style glass, both chosen to avoid plastic contact with boiled water. The stainless steel kettles feature automatic shut-off and boil-dry protection, while the glass kettle range includes multi-mode cooking (up to 16 functions on some models), allowing use for tea brewing, soup simmering and slow cooking beyond simple boiling.

The instant hot water dispenser range offers up to 11 precise temperature presets, suited to households needing consistent water temperature for baby formula, tea or coffee without repeated boiling. A built-in chlorine removal function is included on select models.

Kylin Woks & Cookware

Kylin's cookware range includes multi-layer stainless steel woks designed for even heat distribution across gas, induction, ceramic and electric cooktops. The 5-ply 316 stainless steel wok uses a precision-etched honeycomb surface to create natural non-stick performance without a chemical coating, paired with a tempered glass lid and cool-touch handle.

Beyond woks, the range includes stainless steel saucepans, stew pots and hot pot cookware in the 304 and 316 grades used throughout the Kylin range, giving consistent quality and cleaning behaviour across pieces bought at different times.

Kylin Home & Storage Range

Beyond the kitchen, Kylin makes practical home organisation products including modular storage cabinets, foldable shoe cabinets, and shelving units, designed for renters and homeowners who need flexible, tool-free storage solutions. Most cabinet ranges use a cube-grid design, allowing configurations from small entryway units up to larger wardrobes with 12 or more compartments.

The brand also produces shower head filters using ceramic ball and sediment filtration to reduce chlorine and particulates in household water, a category increasingly relevant for hard water areas across Australia.
