T2’s Morphy Richards sells full-size appliances airside
Right in Melbourne Airport Terminal T2, Morphy Richards functions more like a compact department store than a duty free add-on. You’ll see kettles, toasters, irons, and other small kitchen appliances lined up rather than the usual souvenirs and snacks. It’s post-security, so you can browse properly after immigration without clock-watching for check-in.
This T2 shop focuses on home and travel-friendly electricals from the Morphy Richards range. Prices mirror typical Australian high-street RRP most of the time, so you’re not exactly scoring a deep airport discount, but you can sometimes catch promo tags on older models. Stock skews to 240V Australian plugs, so think more “buy for home or local gifts” than “gear for your US apartment.”
You’ll find it on the international side of T2, so it only makes sense if you’re flying out on an overseas service, not on a T3 or T4 domestic run. Staff usually plug in kettles or irons to show basic functions, which helps if you’re choosing between two similar models. Expect standard card payments plus contactless; cash acceptance follows usual MEL retail rules.
Most units come in their full retail boxes, which matters if you’re already on your second bag. A boxed two-slice toaster or jug kettle eats up a chunk of carry-on allowance, and some airlines from T2 still gate-check aggressively on busy evening departures. If you want something bulky, buy it here but ask about delivery options or be ready to shift heavier items into checked luggage before your next MEL trip.
