We hope you love our recommendations! Some may have been sent as samples, but all were independently selected by our editors. Just FYI, BuzzFeed collects a share of sales and/or other compensation from the links on this page.
1. A *super*-compact eight-in-one spiralizer that also grates cheese, juices fruits, cuts ribbons, and more. All you have to do is change out one of the interlocking caps for a new function. Fresh-squeezed OJ? Zoodles in the air fryer? Grated Parmesan on your pasta? Done, done, and done. (And you never have to say "when"!!)
2. A beginner-friendly fermenting kit complete with everything you need to "set it and forget it," so you can serve yourself lil' sides of pickled things with your dishes like a fancy farm-to-table restaurant.
3. A trio lasagna pan designed so all of your edges are so perfectly crisped it will taste like Remy from Ratatouille cut them with his own discerning, bougie eyes.
4. An electric potato peeler that, whoops, just got a permanent spot on your counter. Not only does it effortlessly peel potatoes, but it can handle pretty much any peeled produce you throw at it, from apples to kiwis to oranges to tomatoes. (To be clear, though, your highest priority should *always* be mashed potato-ing.)
5. A small but mighty air fryer that can cook and bake so many excellent dishes using the power of rapid air technology that it'll spoil you for other methods of cooking forever — perfect for meals for one or a last-minute side dish, since there's no wait time for it to preheat.
6. Plus a magnetized air fryer–cooking cheat sheet so the next time you play my favorite game — "indiscriminately shove things in the air fryer and hope for the best" — you can actually experiment with confidence (particularly when it comes to meat and frozen foods!).
7. A set of three dough presses in different sizes perfect for hand pies, dumplings, ravioli, calzones, empanadas, and truly any delicious thing you can think of that you want tucked into a pillow of warm carbs.
8. A rapid corn and potato cooker because sometimes you don't just need a potato, you need a potato right the heck now. This uses steam to thoroughly cook it all the way through in three to five minutes to cut down on wait time (and un-fully cooked potato disappointment).
9. A produce-saver storage container designed to keep your fruits and veggies fresh way longer, so you can take your sweet time planning your weekly menus knowing that you won't have to race to eat certain things up faster.
10. An stainless-steel slicer to get you *chef's KISS* levels of perfectly sliced cheeses, whether they're the thick "I'm putting you on a Ritz cracker immediately" kind or the paper-thin "mayhaps I will top my pasta with Parmesan" variety.
11. A tiny milk frother so you can start concocting your own cozy café drinks so delicious that you might just start a new TikTok trend.
12. A simple silicone bread maker that proves you don't need any expensive equipment or complicated instructions to make delicious bread at home — in fact, you can mix the ingredients right into the silicone maker and pop it right into the oven.
13. A two-stage electric knife sharpener, because those blades you bought back in the day?? They're probably super dull by now, even if you haven't noticed since it's happened over time. But sharper knives = faster, safer cooking, so you can ~refresh~ them this this.
14. A beloved microwave pasta cooker to make cooking pasta so easy, you'll be eating like restaurant royalty seven days a week. Truly all you have to do is put water and dry noodles in it, hit the microwave buttons, and strain it right out of the container. Noodles on noodles, y'all.
15. A 3D-printed spaghetti measure so you never again have to squint at a spaghetti box, think to yourself, "Eh, I got this!!" and accidentally make enough pasta to feed an entire floor of your apartment building again.
16. A stuffed-patty mold to elevator your burger game like WHOA. These are specially designed to hold the contents of the patty in place so you can truly go to clown town experimenting with the inside of your burgers, whether you're stuffing them with cheese, veggies, or — dare I suggest!! — Ritz crackers??
17. A small crushed-ice machine to make a *ton* of restaurant dupes — people mention using it for homemade Sno Cones, Frappuccinos, or even just as a quick fix for anyone who loves crushed ice from the gas station or fast food restaurants they might not to get to very often now.
18. A pair of shredder claws to carve all your meats up faster than Wolverine can blink, sparing you and your measly fork from getting in a lengthy tug-of-war.
19. A magnetic hanging utensil set that includes (*DEEP BREATH*) a slotted spatula, spaghetti server, slotted spoon, solid spoon, and a ladle, all designed to nest into each other so you'll have them at the tip of your fingers whenever you get ambitious in the kitchen.
20. Or a Uni-tool, a show-off of a gadget that functions as slotted spoon, a turner, a solid spoon, a spatula, *and* a cutting tool, so you can go full MasterChef in your kitchen.
21. A silicone pan that can be used for homemade bagels and donuts so fresh and fragrant you'll be like, "Ah, yes, it's time to leave my old life behind and open a limited-batch bakery out of my back porch."
22. A panini press to make you crispy, Panera-level sandwiches with that deeply satisfying crrrunnnchhh to them that make all of your taste buds sigh in delight.
23. A snap-on pasta strainer to free your pasta from its hot juices straight from the pot, and spare you storage space boot (is it just me or are colanders always in the business of being exactly in the way of whatever it is you need?). Psst — these are also a game changer for washing your fruit, too!
24. A rapid egg cooker that I am warning you right now is going to become your only personality trait. It can make soft-, medium-, *and* hard-boiled eggs in addition to poaching, scrambling, and making omelets out of them. This gizmo is, like, a thousand potential brunches in one.
25. Or a handmade pottery egg cooker that is not only key to your kitchen's ~aesthetic~, but key to the ultimate goal of the most perfect egg possible. The bb cooks up eggs (with mix-ins!) in a minute or less, giving you perfectly round-shaped little omelets you can eat on their own or put in a sammie.
26. An automatic pan stirrer so you don't have to spend the full half hour before every meal babysitting the stove. For dishes on a low simmer, you can set the timer on this and go back to watching Netflix the way nature intended.
27. A breakfast sandwich maker that may be small but can cook an egg, toast bread, warm precooked meat, and melt cheese into the perfect sammie all at once. Dunkin' whomst??
28. A sleek electric kettle you can use as a ~shortcut~ if you're making something that calls for boiled water. A watched pot may never boil, but this handy kettle will have it ready for you in minutes.
29. A see-through toaster so you can watch your toast get to your *precise* level of preferred toastiness and finally have the kind of breakfast you deserve. TBH, cancel my Netflix account, this is my new TV.
30. A digital food thermometer to prevent any meat mishaps — this compact, lightweight model easily cuts through meat to give you a temp reading in three to five seconds, so you can have perfectly tender, Instagramworthy meat every time.
31. A compact electric hand mixer that will easily whip your creams, mix your doughs, and meringue your egg whites without causing a whole two-act-with-intermission production like its larger counterparts.
32. An 8-quart, family-friendly Crock-Pot to minimize effort and maximize deliciousness. All you have to do is toss in your ingredients at the beginning of the day, then look forward to the warm, slow-cooked bliss of perfectly moist chicken, flavorful chili, or mashed potatoes so smooth you'll wanna swim in them.
33. An ingenious ceramic bacon cooker you can pop right into the microwave to get perfectly cooked bacon — the ceramic evenly heats and cooks the bacon while the lil' drip tray catches all those extra bacon tears. It's BLT o'Clock, y'all.
34. A small but effective rice cooker that will make eight cups of rice and neatly pop into the dishwasher when you're done. It also comes with a built-in steamer, so if you're like, "Get this bread! But also these veggies!!" you can prep them at the same time.
35. A small three-tier cooling rack for when you want to cook or bake a bazillion things at once, but don't *quite* have the counter space for it. This will ensure that you can have a delicious main course *and* all the sides and desserts your heart desires, too.
36. A meat-cooking temperature magnet if you, like me, are always vaguely intimidated by the idea of cooking meat without accidentally giving yourself salmonella and need the extra confidence boost to try new recipes.
37. A set of stackable glass meal prep containers that are safe in the oven and the microwave, meaning you can cook, reheat, and eat out of 'em without ever bothering to go find a plate. Your homemade leftovers just got lit 🔥.
38. A pancake batter dispenser to make pancakes so easy that they miiiight just replace every meal. This not only saves you extra cleanup by letting you mix the ingredients directly in it, it also squeezes out perfectly round pancakes straight from the nozzle.
You treating yourself to delicious homemade dinner every night:
