Abstract: A compact appliance includes a housing that has a planar bottom surface and sidewalls that define a cavity. A cooking assembly is operably coupled to the housing. The cooking assembly includes heat conductors that are proximate to the planar bottom surface of the housing. A heating plate is operably coupled to the heat conductors and define a portion of the planar bottom surface of the housing. A seal is disposed around and coupled to the heating plate. A tray is selectively disposed within the cavity defined by the housing and removably coupled to the heating plate. The tray includes a ceramic coating.

Abstract: A microwave-heating crisp plate includes a body defining a food-supporting surface and an outer surface opposite the food-supporting surface, and a coating applied over at least a portion of the outer surface. The coating includes a base polymer material defining a matrix, carbon nanotubes, and ferrite particles. The carbon nanotubes and the ferrite particles are dispersed throughout the matrix in a predetermined relative ratio and in a predetermined dispersal ratio with respect to the matrix.
