Basis of Presentation	Sep. 30, 2019
Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Hamilton Beach Brands Holding Company and its subsidiaries ("Hamilton Beach Holding” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments of a normal recurring nature considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. The Company operates through its subsidiaries, Hamilton Beach Brands, Inc. ("HBB") and The Kitchen Collection, LLC ("KC"). HBB is a leading designer, marketer and distributor of branded, small electric household and specialty housewares appliances, as well as commercial products for restaurants, bars and hotels. KC is a national specialty retailer of kitchenware primarily in outlet malls throughout the United States ("U.S."). Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the remainder of the year due to the highly seasonal nature of our primary markets. A majority of revenue and operating profit occurs in the second half of the calendar year when sales of our products to retailers and consumers increase significantly for the fall holiday-selling season. Prior period interest income amounts have been reclassified from other expense (income), net to interest expense, net and prior period non-trade customer receivable amounts have been reclassified from trade receivables, net to prepaid expenses and other current assets to conform to the current period presentation. The following new accounting policy is reflected in these quarterly financial statements as a result of the share repurchases made during the first nine months of 2019: Treasury Stock The Company records the aggregate purchase price of treasury stock at cost and includes treasury stock as a reduction to stockholders' equity.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards	9 Months Ended
Recently Issued Accounting Standards	Sep. 30, 2019
New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Abstract]
Recently Issued Accounting Standards	Recently Issued Accounting Standards Accounting Standards Adopted In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, "Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715)," which amends the requirements in U.S. GAAP related to the income statement presentation of the components of net periodic benefit cost for an entity's sponsored defined benefit pension and other post-retirement plans. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2019. The change in presentation of the components of net periodic pension cost was applied retrospectively which resulted in $0.2 million and $0.6 million of net periodic pension income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, being reclassified from selling, general and administrative expenses to other expense (income), net. Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted The Company is an emerging growth company and has elected not to opt out of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or nonpublic entities, the Company can adopt the new or revised standard at the time nonpublic entities adopt the new or revised standard. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)," which requires an entity to recognize assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by leased assets. For nonpublic entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is planning to adopt ASU 2016-02 for its year ending December 31, 2020 and is currently evaluating to what extent ASU 2016-02 will affect the Company's financial position, results of operations, cash flows and related disclosures. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326)," which requires an entity to recognize credit losses as an allowance rather than as a write-down. For nonpublic entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is planning to adopt ASU 2016-03 for its year ending December 31, 2021 and is currently evaluating to what extent ASU 2016-13 will affect the Company's financial position, results of operations, cash flows and related disclosures.

Transfer of Financial Assets	9 Months Ended
Transfer of Financial Assets	Sep. 30, 2019
Transfers and Servicing [Abstract]
Transfer of financial assets	Transfer of Financial Assets The Company has entered into an arrangement with a financial institution to sell certain U.S. trade receivables on a non-recourse basis. The Company utilizes this arrangement as an integral part of financing working capital. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company receives cash proceeds and retains no rights or interest and has no obligations with respect to the sold receivables. These transactions are accounted for as sold receivables which result in a reduction in trade receivables because the agreement transfers effective control over and risk related to the receivables to the buyer. Under this arrangement, the Company derecognized $36.9 million and $104.8 million of trade receivables during the three and nine months ending September 30, 2019, respectively, $37.0 million and $107.2 million of trade receivables during the three and nine months ending September 30, 2018, respectively, and $165.4 million during the year ending December 31, 2018. The loss incurred on sold receivables in the consolidated results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 was not material. The Company does not carry any servicing assets or liabilities. Cash proceeds from this arrangement are reflected as operating activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

The Company measures its derivatives at fair value using significant observable inputs, which is Level 2 as defined in the fair value hierarchy. The Company uses a present value technique that incorporates the LIBOR swap curve, foreign currency spot rates and foreign currency forward rates to value its derivatives, including its interest rate swap agreements and foreign currency exchange contracts, and also incorporates the effect of its subsidiary and counterparty credit risk into the valuation.

During the periods ended September 30, 2019, December 31, 2018 and September 30, 2018, there were no transfers into or out of Levels 1, 2 or 3.

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements: The Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Certain factors, such as the estimated property, plant and equipment salvage value, used for this nonrecurring fair value measurement are considered a Level 3 input. At September 30, 2019, the Company determined the carrying value of KC’s long-lived assets compared to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows were not recoverable as the Company lowered KC’s outlook for the prospect of a future return to profitability due to the continued decrease in comparable store sales. Based on the estimated selling price of KC’s property, plant and equipment in an orderly transaction between market participants, the Company recorded a $1.0 million impairment charge in selling, general and administrative expenses during the third quarter of 2019.

Revenue Recognition and Deferred Revenue [Abstract]

Revenue

Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the Company's customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. A description of the performance obligations for each segment is as follows:

HBB

•

Product revenue - Product revenue consists of sales of small electric household and specialty housewares appliances to traditional brick and mortar and e-commerce retailers, distributors and directly to the end consumer as well as sales of commercial products for restaurants, bars and hotels. Transactions with these customers generally originate upon the receipt of a purchase order from the customer, which in some cases are governed by master sales agreements, specifying product(s) that the customer desires. Contracts for product revenue generally have an original duration of one year or less, and payment terms are generally standard and based on customer creditworthiness. Revenue from product sales is recognized at the point in time when control transfers to the customer, which is either when product is shipped from the Company's facility, or delivered to customers, depending on the shipping terms. The amount of consideration received and revenue recognized varies with changes in incentives, returns and consideration paid to customers for advertising arrangements.

•

License revenues - From time to time, the Company enters into exclusive and non-exclusive licensing agreements which grant the right to use certain of the Company’s intellectual property (IP) in connection with designing, manufacturing, distributing, advertising, promoting and selling the licensees’ products during the term of the agreement. The IP that is licensed generally consists of trademarks, tradenames, patents, trade dress, and/or logos (the “Licensed IP”). In exchange for granting the right to use the Licensed IP, the Company receives a royalty payment, which is a function of (1) the total net sales of products that use the Licensed IP and (2) the royalty percentage that is stated in the licensing agreement. The Company recognizes revenue at the later of when the subsequent sales occur or satisfying the performance obligation (over time).

KC

•

Product revenue - KC sells a variety of kitchenware products from a number of highly recognizable name brands to individual consumers. Products are sold through brick and mortar retail stores whereby customers come into KC stores, explore the assortment of merchandise available for sale, select various products that they desire to purchase, bring those products to the sales register and pay the cashier the agreed-upon price using either cash, check or credit card. Once the sale is complete, a receipt is generated and provided to the customer as proof of purchase. Therefore, the sales process is both originated and completed simultaneously at the point of sale. Revenue from product sales is recognized at the point in time when control transfers to the customer, which occurs when the products are scanned at the sales register. The amount of consideration received and revenue recognized varies with changes in returns.

HBB’s warranty program to the consumer consists generally of an assurance-type limited warranty lasting for varying periods of up to ten years for electric appliances, with the majority of products having a warranty of one to three years. There is no guarantee to the customer as HBB may repair or replace, at its option, those products returned under warranty. Accordingly, the Company determined that no separate performance obligation exists.

The following table presents the Company's revenue on a disaggregated basis for the three and nine months ending:

Contingencies	9 Months Ended
Contingencies	Sep. 30, 2019
Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Contingencies	Contingencies Various legal and regulatory proceedings and claims have been or may be asserted against Hamilton Beach Holding relating to the conduct of its businesses, including product liability, patent infringement, asbestos related claims, environmental and other claims. These proceedings and claims are incidental to the ordinary course of business of the Company. Management believes that it has meritorious defenses and will vigorously defend the Company in these actions. Any costs that management estimates will be paid as a result of these claims are accrued when the liability is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. If a range of amounts can be reasonably estimated and no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other amount, then the minimum of the range is accrued. The Company does not accrue liabilities when the likelihood that the liability has been incurred is probable but the amount cannot be reasonably estimated or when the liability is believed to be only reasonably possible or remote. For contingencies where an unfavorable outcome is probable or reasonably possible and which are material, the Company discloses the nature of the contingency and, in some circumstances, an estimate of the possible loss. These matters are subject to inherent uncertainties and unfavorable rulings could occur. If an unfavorable ruling were to occur, there exists the possibility of an adverse impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the period in which the ruling occurs, or in future periods. HBB is a defendant in a legal proceeding in which the plaintiff alleges that certain HBB products infringe the plaintiff’s patents. On May 3, 2019, the jury returned its verdict finding that the Company had infringed certain patents of the plaintiff and, as a result, awarded the plaintiff damages in the amount of $3.2 million. Accordingly, the Company recorded $3.2 million expense in selling, general and administrative expenses during the second quarter of 2019 for the contingent loss. On September 23, 2019 the Company filed post-trial motions challenging the jury verdict of infringement and the award of damages and the plaintiffs filed motions seeking interest, post-trial accounting, injunctive relief, and attorneys’ fees. A hearing date on the post-trial motions has not been set. The Company maintains that its products do not infringe on the plaintiff’s patents and will vigorously defend against the plantiff's post-trial motions. Environmental matters HBB is investigating or remediating historical environmental contamination at some current and former sites operated by HBB or by businesses it acquired. Based on the current stage of the investigation or remediation at each known site, HBB estimates the total investigation and remediation costs and the period of assessment and remediation activity required for each site. The estimate of future investigation and remediation costs is primarily based on variables associated with site clean-up, including, but not limited to, physical characteristics of the site, the nature and extent of the contamination and applicable regulatory programs and remediation standards. No assessment can fully characterize all subsurface conditions at a site. There is no assurance that additional assessment and remediation efforts will not result in adjustments to estimated remediation costs or the time frame for remediation at these sites. HBB's estimates of investigation and remediation costs may change if it discovers contamination at additional sites or additional contamination at known sites, if the effectiveness of its current remediation efforts change, if applicable federal or state regulations change or if HBB's estimate of the time required to remediate the sites changes. HBB's revised estimates may differ materially from original estimates. At September 30, 2019, December 31, 2018, and September 30, 2018, HBB had accrued undiscounted obligations of $4.5 million, $8.2 million, and $8.6 million respectively, for environmental investigation and remediation activities. The reduction in the amount accrued at September 30, 2019 compared to December 31, 2018 is the result of a reduction to the accrual recorded in the second quarter of 2019 due to a change in the expected type and extent of investigation and remediation activities associated with one of the sites based upon additional testing and assessment performed with respect to that site in the second quarter of 2019. In addition, HBB estimates that it is reasonably possible that it may incur additional expenses in the range of zero to $3.9 million related to the environmental investigation and remediation at these sites.

Subsequent Events	9 Months Ended
Subsequent Events	Sep. 30, 2019
Subsequent Events [Abstract]
Subsequent Events	Subsequent Events During the three months ended September 30, 2019, KC continued to experience decreased comparable store sales as a result of declining foot traffic. Further deterioration in foot traffic has lowered the Company's outlook for the prospect of a future return to profitability. As a result, on October 10, 2019, the board of directors of the Company approved the wind down of the retail operations of KC and the closure of all of its 160 stores by the end of 2019. During the fourth quarter, KC expects to incur expenses in the range of $4.0 million to $6.0 million primarily for severance obligations and professional fees. The Company expects KC's total cash expenditures relating to the wind down, excluding cash expenditures in the ordinary course as KC continues to operate, to be in the range of $6.0 million to $8.0 million. These charges and expenses do not include lease termination obligations as the amount is subject to negotiation and is not known at this time. The Company’s estimate of the charges and expenses are preliminary and subject to change until finalized. The Company expects that the historical and future financial results of KC will be classified as discontinued operations in the period during which the assets are abandoned, which is currently anticipated to occur during the quarter ending December 31, 2019. On October 23, 2019, KC and its lender entered into a Forbearance Agreement (the “Forbearance Agreement”) with respect to KC's secured revolving line of credit ("KC Facility"). The wind down of KC's operations constitutes an event of default under the KC Facility. Under the terms of the Forbearance Agreement, the lender has agreed to forebear from exercising its rights and remedies as a result of the events of default pending accelerated payment in full of the obligations under the KC facility on or before December 15, 2019. The Forbearance Agreement reduces the amount of the aggregate commitments to $15.0 million and converts all LIBO rate loans to base rate loans and triggers default interest. In addition, KC will pay a forbearance fee of $12,500 each week until all obligations under the KC Facility are paid in full. The Company has not guaranteed any of the obligations of KC under the KC Facility.

Basis of Presentation (Policies)	Sep. 30, 2019
Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Hamilton Beach Brands Holding Company and its subsidiaries ("Hamilton Beach Holding” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments of a normal recurring nature considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. The Company operates through its subsidiaries, Hamilton Beach Brands, Inc. ("HBB") and The Kitchen Collection, LLC ("KC"). HBB is a leading designer, marketer and distributor of branded, small electric household and specialty housewares appliances, as well as commercial products for restaurants, bars and hotels. KC is a national specialty retailer of kitchenware primarily in outlet malls throughout the United States ("U.S."). Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the remainder of the year due to the highly seasonal nature of our primary markets. A majority of revenue and operating profit occurs in the second half of the calendar year when sales of our products to retailers and consumers increase significantly for the fall holiday-selling season. Prior period interest income amounts have been reclassified from other expense (income), net to interest expense, net and prior period non-trade customer receivable amounts have been reclassified from trade receivables, net to prepaid expenses and other current assets to conform to the current period presentation. The following new accounting policy is reflected in these quarterly financial statements as a result of the share repurchases made during the first nine months of 2019:
Accounting Standard Adopted and Not Yet Adopted	Accounting Standards Adopted In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, "Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715)," which amends the requirements in U.S. GAAP related to the income statement presentation of the components of net periodic benefit cost for an entity's sponsored defined benefit pension and other post-retirement plans. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2019. The change in presentation of the components of net periodic pension cost was applied retrospectively which resulted in $0.2 million and $0.6 million of net periodic pension income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, being reclassified from selling, general and administrative expenses to other expense (income), net. Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted The Company is an emerging growth company and has elected not to opt out of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or nonpublic entities, the Company can adopt the new or revised standard at the time nonpublic entities adopt the new or revised standard. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)," which requires an entity to recognize assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by leased assets. For nonpublic entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is planning to adopt ASU 2016-02 for its year ending December 31, 2020 and is currently evaluating to what extent ASU 2016-02 will affect the Company's financial position, results of operations, cash flows and related disclosures. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326)," which requires an entity to recognize credit losses as an allowance rather than as a write-down. For nonpublic entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is planning to adopt ASU 2016-03 for its year ending December 31, 2021 and is currently evaluating to what extent ASU 2016-13 will affect the Company's financial position, results of operations, cash flows and related disclosures.
