Cuisinart

Stamford, Connecticut kitchen-appliance brand that also sells outdoor grills, smokers, patio heaters and fire pits.

Cuisinart was founded in 1971 by Carl Sontheimer. The company introduced its food processor to the American market in 1973, and the Cuisinart name became closely associated with that appliance. Conair Corporation bought the company in 1989.

The brand is based in Stamford, Connecticut, and its catalog extends well beyond food processors into countertop appliances, cookware and cutlery.

Its outdoor range is sold under the "Outdoor Grills & Accessories" category and covers gas, electric and charcoal grills and griddles, portable grills, vertical charcoal and electric smokers, a portable wood-pellet grill, grilling tools and grill-side accessories. The "Heaters & Fire Pits" line includes propane patio heaters, a propane chimenea and the wood-burning Cleanburn smokeless fire pits in 7.5-inch tabletop, 19.5-inch and 24-inch sizes.
