1. A luxe cheese board all your friends will be impressed with at your next party. (They don't have to know it's filled with cheap cheese from Trader Joe's.)

Get it from Amazon for $16.99.
2. A three-tier wire basket so you can thoughtfully display those fruits and vegetables that have been sitting in the middle of your kitchen table for weeks now.

Promising review: "I love it! I had a fruit and veggie bowl on my counter, but I was running out of counter space, and it didn't hold much. This is very sturdy, and I love the color. I knew it would be more of a rose gold than a copper just by looking at the pictures, so I didn't expect a copper color. I now have counter and refrigerator space and a cute way to display my foods. I would definitely recommend!" —Amy
Get it from Amazon for $13.04+ (available in copper and chrome).
3. An electric hot pot you'll be so egg-cited to use because it cooks noodles, steams vegetables, makes oatmeal, boils eggs, and reheats soup. Oh and not to mention, it also boils water!

It also includes an egg tray for making hardboiled eggs and a steamer tray for steaming veggies!
Promising review: "I have steamed vegetables, boiled eggs, and steamed eggs in the pot with no problem. The eggs come out perfect and no cracking of shells. I have cooked rice in the pot also." —ertigers
Get it from Walmart for $14.69.
4. A wine decanter and aerator that'll make you feel like your home is a five star restaurant, even if you're drinking a $5 bottle of wine.

Promising review: "This is the prettiest wine decanter I own! It's very delicate and quite an eye catcher! I bought one for my daughter, and she absolutely loves it!" —Cindy Bahr
Get it from Amazon for $14.99.
5. A sleek stovetop espresso maker that will help make your morning cup o' joe quickly — so much so that you may never want to buy a cup of coffee again.

Promising review: "I love this simple coffee maker! It is well made and works perfectly. I was particularly impressed that the handle doesn't overheat or melt on my gas stove. To get the best taste, it is important to use good quality espresso ground coffee. My husband used regular ground coffee, and the result wasn't half as delicious. The price is also great compared to other options." —Madeleine
Get it from Amazon for $19.95.
6. A gold measuring spoon and cups set with a removable loop so you can store them and then grab the 1/4 cup easily without rummaging through the whole drawer.
Get it from Amazon for $16.99 (available in copper and gold).
7. A mini waffle maker that'll make you feel like you're staying in a hotel when you use it on Saturday morning, but without, you know, that pricey hotel room bill.

Promising review: "YES! This makes tiny Eggo-sized waffles! Plus, you can put anything into it— hash browns, tater tots, waffle mix, or even canned biscuits! Or you can add nuts and berries and things! It even comes with a little recipe booklet! It fits in the palm of your hand, and you could literally stuff it in the back of a drawer, but you won't because as soon as you get it, everyone wants mini waffles for every meal. It heats up super fast and is a breeze to clean. If you're making a whole mess of waffles, be sure to give it a quick spritz of nonstick spray every couple waffles or so, so it doesn't rend your delicious waffles asunder. It's an excellent value. Buy 10 of them and a food truck, and you'd be in business." —Bryce Pierce
Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in nine colors).
8. A large marbled cutting board that's a ~cut above~ all the others you've used over the years. You may not even want to use this, it looks so nice.

It is recommended to hand wash this.
Get it from World Market for $7.99.
9. An ice bucket so ~chill~, you might use it to hold other, non-ice things when you're not throwing a party.

Get it from TJ Maxx for $16.99.
10. An electric wine opener so you can uncork bottles in seconds, and never struggle with that crappy opener you picked up somewhere along the way that takes about 15 minutes (and a lot of struggling) to work.

This removes corks in seconds, can open up to 30 bottles on a single charge, and has a built-in rechargeable battery.
Promising review: "OMG! I LOVE this wine opener. It opens with ease. I don’t post many reviews, but this is definitely worth the money. I can't say enough good things about this wine opener. It comes with an awesome charging stand and foil cutter. Don’t waste your time on other electric wine openers. This is the one! I love it! The blue light is really cool too!" —Allison Parks
Get it from Amazon for $19.99.
11. A six-piece knife set with an acrylic stand to make your knives seem like they should be part of a modern art exhibit, except that exhibit is your kitchen.

These knives should be hand washed and immediately dried to prevent rust. The set includes an 8-inch chef knife, an 8-inch bread knife, an 8-inch carving knife, a 5-inch utility knife, a 3.5-inch paring knife, and an acrylic stand for easy storage.
Promising review: "Seriously, the best knife set you can get for this price. They LOOK expensive, the design is unique, the knives work great, and it saves so much space in the kitchen! Every time I have guests over, they ask about this knife set. And if you do not like the "utopia" label, it is only on one side so just turn the set the other way!" —R. M.
Get it from Amazon for $17.99.
12. A revolving food server that'll make the perfect centerpiece for you table. Plus, as an added bonus, the flowers painted on it won't die after a week! 🙌

13. A set of eight kitchen utensils – you might feel like you're a contestant on Top Chef when you use 'em. Just be sure to be ready to pack up your knives if your cooking doesn't work out like you hoped.

It includes a solid spoon, slotted spoon, soup ladle, paster server, solid turner, slotted turner, round spatula, and regular spatula.
Promising review: "This product is really great! I love cooking with wooden spoons, and I love how this has the wooden handles and the silicon base, which makes it perfect. They are sturdy and feel very expensive. Plus, they are very well made. I couldn't be happier." —Rachel L.
Get it from Amazon for $17.99.
14. Some confetti stemless wine glasses to add a little ~sparkle~ to your next girl's night.

Get a set of four from Amazon for $19.99.

Get a set of four from Amazon for $15.48.
17. A glass carafe you'll impress your overnight guests with when you serve them fresh-squeezed orange juice in the morning. (Okay, maybe it's not fresh squeezed, but they don't have to know that!!)

The carafe is dishwasher-safe.
Get it from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in 35 oz, 50 oz, and 64 oz sizes).
18. An acacia wood utensil holder – it's so simple and classic you wood be making a mistake if you don't add it to your kitchen.

The utensils are sold separately, but are also reasonably priced! Brandless takes out the middleman and sells quality items at a fraction of the price you'll see at typical retailer. Plus, every time you check out, a meal is donated through Feeding America. I call that a win-win. Now, excuse me while I go stock up my new kitchen.
Get it from Brandless for $9.
19. A convenient multipurpose kitchen stand designed to hold a pot lid and ladle while you cook, or keep a cookbook open to make things a little easier.
Promising review: "I love this product! I have always had a difficult time removing hot and steamy lids from dishes with no place to put them without making a mess on my countertop. If placed upside down on the counter, then it's too hot to pick back up. This stand works perfectly for all my lids from my heavy lid on the Dutch oven to small lids. It's also great for large spoons and ladles without making a mess. I highly recommend it." —Colleen R.
Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in black and white).
20. A three-tier stackable wine rack because it's a fact that ~fancy~ people have racks to display their wine bottles.

21. A test tube vase to help your table decor really ~bloom~.

Get it from World Market for $16.99.
22. A glass teapot with a removable infuser so beautiful, the queen probably uses one during her afternoon tea time.

23. Some faceted glasses that'll look super ~sharp~ in your kitchen.

Yes, they are dishwasher safe!
Promising review: "The images of the glasses showed something interesting and unique. When they arrived, they proved to be functional, also. I love how they feel in my hand, so secure and comfortable. I love how they catch the light because of the slanted design of the glass sides. I've received many compliments. They are what I go to first because they are so pretty. They come out of the dishwasher sparkling and intact. The price was unbelievably reasonable! They look like expensive, designer glasses. It's such a good feeling to actually enjoy one's drinking glasses." —Joan Determan
Get a set of four from Amazon for $19.99.
24. A small cake stand you can display those delicious deserts on during your next gathering.

25. A set of 20 art prints with some pretty useful information that'll basically be your own version of "phone a friend" when you're cooking dinner.

Get it from Amazon for $14.93.
