    28 Kitchen Gadgets Reviewers Swear Are Worth The Counter Space

    The real estate market is booming on your kitchen counter.

    1. An awesome little handheld milk frother that'll up your at-home coffee game to the next level — it can basically froth up any milky drink (even those with dairy alternatives)!

    2. A multi-layer Hamilton Beach Breakfast Sandwich Maker to make you a warm morning meal in just about five minutes. Plus, all removable parts are dishwasher-safe and the surfaces are covered with a durable, nonstick coating.

    3. A super sturdy Uno Casa Cast-Iron Tortilla Press that'll help you make some of the best tortillas your mouth will ever know — and if I'm being honest, I never realized it was an option NOT to have this on your counter. A version of this bad boy has been a visible part of every kitchen I grew up in.

    4. A lightweight, programmable egg cooker, because believe it or not, the hardest thing to learn to cook are freakin' eggs — this little gadget can boil up to six eggs at a time, poach two eggs with its separate poaching tray, or even make an omelet!

    5. A cold-brew iced coffee maker, because your love for an icy caffeine fix is real and Starbucks is expensive.

    6. Or if you prefer your coffee of the hot variety, a sleek Keurig K-Mini single-serve K-Cup pod coffee maker that's only about 5" wide, can brew a single cup at a time so you're not dealing with a cold pot of undrunk coffee, *and* that only takes a few minutes to brew a steaming cup of joe for your morning pick me up.

    7. A countertop compost bin so you can convert your home into the green machine you know it can be.

    8. A cordless electric wine bottle opener complete with a foil cutter and the ability to open up to 30 bottles on one charge — so, like, you should be fine for your next Saturday night.

    9. A just plain awesome Cuisinart Classic Waffle Maker, because Leslie Knope was right about a lot of things but she was especially right about waffles being the best.

    10. A modern Bodum Melior gooseneck electric water kettle, designed out of durable stainless steel and natural, sustainable cork (which also makes the handle non-slip and the knob heat-protected). It's especially great for pour-over coffee since you can control the speed and consistency of the water flow.

    11. A SodaStream. A magnificent little carbonating SodaStream that I am so late to the party in celebrating because honestly no one ever told me how amazing they are, which is bizarre because as a company they've been around for over 100 years. One canister makes up to 60 liters of bubbling perfection! OMG! Imma need to sit down.

    12. The super-popular Our Place Always Pan, which is perfectly crafted and designed to replace your fry pan, saute pan, steamer, skillet, saucier, saucepan, nonstick pan, spatula, and ::deep inhale:: spoon rest.

    13. A Presto CoolDaddy Cool-touch Deep Fryer to make perfectly crispy yet soft french fries whenever you want. It's designed with an adjustable thermostat, a handy indicator light that signals when the oil is ready for frying, a locking cover to prevent spattering and reduce odors, an extra-large viewing window so you can monitor frying without opening the cover, a charcoal air filter to absorb frying odors, and an exterior basket handle to help you lower it into the oil with the cover closed to prevent spattering.

    14. Or go for a 2-liter capacity air fryer that uses heat and powerful dual fans to circulate hot air around food for the same crispy results you'd get from a deep fryer.

    15. A super-powerful 800-watt juicer to prepare those expensive juices you love so damn much...but that end up costing you too damn much!

    16. A dishwasher-safe panini press sandwich maker that'll create you a warm, yummy lunch in just about five minutes.

    17. A 12-setting bread maker capable of making up to two pounds of super yummy bread — including gluten-free bread! — right from the comfort of your kitchen.

    18. A two-rack BLACK+DECKER countertop toaster oven just in case you wanted that baked good toasted goodness without the risk of making a mess out of your big ol' oven.

    19. Or if you wanna keep it simple, go with a two-slice Hamilton Beach stainless-steel toaster to get that perfect golden bread every morn.

    25. A compact LCD digital kitchen scale perfect for measuring liquid and dry ingredients and meal prepping.
