Trademark Registration – Classification Guide Class 11 in Japan

It seems that high-end bread is popular, so I wonder what it would be like to launch a high-performance “electric toaster”.
First of all, we have prepared a product name and logo that will convey the appeal of my goods, and we would like to register it as a trademark so that others will not imitate us.
Then you need to remember to designate Class 11, which includes “household electrothermic appliances”!
Class 11 includes a lot of goods related to household cooking appliances! Let’s check it out.
Considering the future product development of cooking utensils, it would be better to designate other goods in class 11.
Is it possible to designate “pressure cookers, non-electric” in Class 11 as well, although the cost would be the same for the same classification…?

Class 11 is a classification of environmental control apparatus and devices, etc.

It may be easier to understand if you associate them with lighting and cooking appliances sold at electronics retailers.
