Oh yes, the Instant Pot has its own thread here. That is the major multi-cooker. It is also a newcomer.
Now as to things found in kitchens:
Electric tea kettles are common in the UK. They are starting to find a market here. Stove top kettles have been around for years.
A coffee maker is much more common in the US.
Stove top canners have been around for years. Funny thing though, the new multi-cookers are not recommended for canning only cooking.
Now stand mixers in Germany are what we would consider a blender. (Or at least some stand mixers in Germany are blenders.) Stand mixers here are usually big heavy things with beaters. (Kitchenaid makes the most popular one.)
Another item more common in the southern US would be a barbecue pit or grill. (Not grilling like in the UK). Grilling here is on top of the fire not underneath it.
Grilling is for faster cooking, a barbecue pit is for slow cooking. Now I could grill on my outside barbecue pit but I can't barbecue on my indoor/outdoor electric grill.
Microwave ovens are found in almost every house in the US.
We also have deep fryers, steamers, food processors, ice cream makers, pasta makers, air fryers, toasters and toaster ovens. Halogen ovens. I almost forgot juicers. Also hand mixers. The latest fad seems to be ice makers.
Now you can buy kitchenaid accessories to do everything from grind meat, shred or slice or spiralize or juice vegetables and fruits, make pasta and ice creams. I think there is even now a cooker accessory.
The two appliances you will find in most American kitchens are microwaves and coffee makers.
