    Trust me, these will make your life better and save you money in the long-run.

    3. Or a rolling utility cart with two storage shelves and four hooks. Each shelf can hold about 9 pounds each, and there are even two locking wheels to keep the cart in place. You'll love the convenience and style it brings to your kitchen. Plus, it can double as a bar cart if you need one.

    4. An industrial bar stool to up the ante on your at-home coffee shop setup. If one of your New Year's resolutions was to become more of a morning person and/or save money, these will help you do both. Who needs to go to the coffee shop when your kitchen is basically a cool cafe?

    6. Or a Nutrichef food preserver that's also a high-tech food saver! This will keep your food fresh for much longer than any Ziploc ever could. It's an easy, effortless way to stretch out your meals and your meal budget. It comes with a suction hose attachment that can be used to preserve opened wine (important) and even waterproof nonfood items. I'm a leftover kind of gal, so this gadget would be a game-changer.

    14. A 3-in-1 pizza dish that's a shovel, a cutting board, and a serving plate and even comes with a pizza roller with an ergonomic handle. The integrated grid lines on the bamboo board serve as a guide to perfectly cut your pizza. Cook, cut, and serve all on the same dish. Sounds like a perfect Friday night to me!

    16. And a three-piece pasta roller and cutter set to bring Italian authenticity to your home. Hey, it's cheaper than a flight to Italy...so, totally worth it. Honestly, nothing's better than homemade pasta. The rollers roll 6-inch sheets of pasta with eight thickness settings and include a fettuccine cutter and a spaghetti cutter, so everybody wins.

It only takes about five minutes to cook your steak evenly, while keeping the inside juicy. Each rack is removable and dishwasher safe, making it the most hassle-free grill ever invented. The cool-touch exterior isn't a bad touch, either. Plus, you can use it to cook more than just steaks!

    the blue glazed dishes

    24. A 4-quart air fryer that will quickly become your most used appliance, because it will help you get the taste of all your favorite fried foods without the fried part.
