1. A drip coffee maker wayyyyy prettier than the bulky thing you have on your counter right now. Not to mention much more high-tech — you can control it with Alexa or Google Home, use voice-to-brew technology to serve up your morning cup, or program it to make your ideal coffee every day before you've even gotten out of bed.
It has a 10-cup capacity and even stores your favorite settings for number of cups, temperature, and brew strength. You can brew to your favorite temperature every time thanks to a precision coffee maker that creates drip coffee from 185–205 degrees. BTW, you'll need cone-shaped filters for this!
Promising review: "After going through roughly six coffee makers in the last three years, we found a keeper. I thought he was going to cry drinking the first cup brewed using the Gold setting. Price is a little steep, but certainly cheaper than the total cost of all the fails we’ve gone through. I love the convenience of the app. It makes setting schedules so easy. I can set up the entire week based on everyone’s calendar. It’s amazeballs. We have yet to play around with the settings since Gold has been a win, but the ability to make the amount you want on demand is wonderful. We usually start out the day with the max of 10 cups (I do wish it was 12), then make additional smaller amounts on demand. Brew time is FAST, maybe six minutes. I keep meaning to time it and keep forgetting. This is a fancy-looking maker and looks amazing on the countertop. Even the box is high-end. My frugal husband gave me serious side-eye when opening it. I could see the 'What did you spend on this?' on his face. First cup and he was content and would possibly have sacrificed our first-born for it. It’s a keeper." —Hilary
Get it from Amazon for $172.78+ (available in three colors and two carafe styles).
2. And a cute set of glass coffee syrup dispensers to turn your kitchen into your own bougie Starbucks (and here a plain coffee doesn't cost like $6). Your boring cup o' joe will get quite the upgrade when you can add a few pumps of vanilla or hazelnut…or both!
Each set also comes with a variety set of labels and a funnel. Don't forget to grab some syrup!
Promising review: "I absolutely love the look of these dispensers on my kitchen counter. These dispensers have an expensive feel and look. Added so much class to my countertop and blended perfectly with the current decor and items on the counter. The only change I would make is maybe adding an outline for where the perfect placement of the label should be on the jar. You really want them to be even and at the same height, but once they are on they are on. I would still recommend this purchase to anyone! 10 out of 10. Gorgeous! These are stunning and I am in love." —Kevin
Get a set of two from Amazon for $18.95+ (available in two sizes, two set sizes, and with a tray).
3. An Our Place oven pan that isn't just for your oven. This is gonna be your new go-to for roasting, baking, and even using on the stove as a griddle. Now you can make more than one pancake at a time!! Cute and efficient, we love it 👏🏼👏🏼.
It's oven-safe up to 450º. It is unfortunately not compatible with induction stove tops, so be aware of that if you're buying it in hopes of using it as a griddle.
Promising review: "A solid pan, and the silicone sheet is one of the best I have ever used. Easy to clean, and everything in the oven is baked to perfection. Love the color as well. It is a versatile pan that can be used on the stove. Cooked an entire breakfast, eggs, sausage, and potatoes all in one pan." —Mary N.
Get it from Our Place for $125 (available in 10 colors).
4. A six-piece set of whimsical pastel kitchen tools because who said knives had to be just black and silver?! This colorful set will bring you so much joy, it may even inspire you to cook more often.
Each set includes a chef's knife, a small cleaver, a bread knife, a paring knife, scissors, and a peeler.
Promising review: "I love these knives! I have now used them for five months and they are still like new. Very sharp, cut right through chicken, potatoes, and plenty of other things." —Wenlow
Get it from Amazon for $19.89.
5. A wooden egg holder so you can easily see how many eggs you have left without having to dig out the annoying styrofoam container every time you wanna check if you'll be able to make the omelet you've been craving.
As shown above, you can also stack two of these on top of each other with eggs inside! Each one holds 18 eggs.
Promising review: "I love this egg holder. It’s simple but beautiful sitting on my counter with free-range eggs in it. I can look at their different colors, sizes, and shapes every day!!!" —Hazel J Gull
Get it from Amazon for $16.30.
6. A nonslip clear food prep and cutting board you can leave out on your counter so you're always prepared for your next chopping session. Unlike most cutting boards, you will barely even notice it's there *and* you don't have to worry about wasting your precious storage space to put it away every night.
Promising review: "This piece is beautiful. I love how it's clear and shows what is underneath. I can have it on my counter all the time and it looks to be part of the kitchen. I've chopped many things on it and I have no scratches. Very easy to clean." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $52.99.
7. A set of glass storage jars with bamboo lids to not only keep your food fresh longer, but to give you that ~aesthetic~ kitchen pantry. I can't be the only one who dreams of having my pantry full of these containers, right?!
Promising review: "I recently upgraded my kitchen storage game with these fabulous glass containers with bamboo lids, and I couldn't be happier with my purchase. These containers have not only elevated the aesthetics of my pantry but also contributed to my sustainability efforts. I am pleased with the quality and sturdiness of the glass, as well as the tightly sealed lids." —Caroline
Get the 7-pack from Amazon for $26.99 (also available in other packs, shapes, and sizes).
8. A pretty rose gold measuring cup set so you can upgrade your fresh-outta-college dingy plastic set for these, which are worthy of being in a professional kitchen.
The set comes with 1/4 tsp, 1/2 tsp, 1 tsp, 1 tbsp, 1/4 cup, 1/3 cup, 1/2 cup, and 1 cup measures.
Promising review: "These are beautiful! It's a wonderful set! They are heavy duty and have a great expensive look without costing a fortune!" —K. LaNou
Get the eight-piece set from Amazon for $22.99 (available in two colors).
9. A sleek wine decanter, which is not only wayyy more aesthetically pleasing than the bottle the wine came in, but actually serves a purpose. It'll aerate your wine to help release natural flavors and aromas that may have been suppressed while in the original bottle. No one will ever guess the gorgeous, full-bodied red with hints of strawberry jam is actually a $12 bottle you got from Target.
Promising review: "My family loves this decanter. It improves the taste of all kinds of wines and looks very nice when displayed. It is much cheaper than many $100 or $200 decanters while looking and working just as nicely. While these can be a bit tricky to clean, I've been using a quick trick to make it look like new! 1) Rinse with warm water (if you have time, let it soak for an hour). 2) Fill about one centimeter with salt and add two centimeters of white wine vinegar. 3) Swirl the solution and CAREFULLY shake if stains are higher up. 4) Rinse with warm water. That should get your decanter ready for the next bottle!" —Jackson L.
Get it from Amazon for $50.49.
10. And a whiskey decanter so you can get rid of those alcohol bottles that don't match the rest of your kitchen and instead display this beautiful, functional work of art.

Promising review: "I bought this for my stepdad and he has always wanted one but I wanted one that I could put his last name on, and this was just the perfect one for that. He absolutely loves it. Made him tear up and everything. So if you wanna make a grown man cry and they really want something like this, then this is definitely a must." —Maranda H.

11. A Le Creuset salt mill (and matching pepper mill) that'll singlehandedly turn your kitchen into a 5-star dining establishment. Go ahead and ask your guests if they would like some freshly ground sea salt and watch their jaws drop in awe.
Promising review: "We use this with sea salt and it works like a gem. Also looks really good paired with the red pepper mill. Note that these are tall mills. I like them on the table to accompany dinner but when cooking, I prefer the smaller ones. It's a matter of preference, though. This salt mill works perfectly." —Melanie N.
Get them from Amazon: salt mill and pepper mill for $45.95 each (available in 11 colors).
12. A set of rainbow wineglasses reviewers are raving about and you can't even blame them — the glasses are absolutely stunning. So gorg in fact, you'll wanna use them as decor when you're not drinking from them.
Check out a TikTok of the rainbow wineglasses in action.
Promising review: "Love these! I’ve run them through the dishwasher once so far and they held up fine. Glass is thin near the top, which I love in a wineglass. I would recommend!" —Tricia
Get a set of six from Amazon for $49.99.
13. A plastic bag dispenser that will finally declutter and organize that one drawer we all have in our house that is just full of different size bags with absolutely no method to the madness. Finally, the days of frantically searching for a sandwich bag to pack your kid's lunch in the morning are over.
Check out a TikTok of the plastic bag dispenser in action. Psst — these come with optional sticker labels so you know which size bag you're grabbing!
Promising review: "I like it very much. Not so large. Lightweight. Would look nice on top of the counter. What I like is that you do not have to wrangle the box into the slots. Simply pick up the roll of bags from their packaging and put them in the designated slot." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in three-, four-, or five-slot models).
14. A stylish colander you can expand or retract to fit and rest perfectly on your sink. You can easily wash or rinse products without wasting any space in the actual sink. It's also great for prepping food and leaving it to the side where it can't be ~infected~ by your other ingredients or washing a bowl. And if you're tight on space, this is a great place to store drying dishes!
This colander can expand from 14–19 inches. It's top-rack dishwasher safe as well!
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Jenae Sitzes owns this in the pink color and absolutely loves it! "I don't leave it out on my sink permanently, but I've hung it right next to my sink using small Command hooks so I can quickly grab it and place it on my sink whenever I need to clean produce or drain pasta. I love being able to leave ingredients on it to drain while I work on other steps of a recipe, and it also leaves enough room in the sink for me to place dirty dishes or wash a pan without the dirty water going onto my clean ingredients. Highly recommend, especially for small kitchens!"
Promising review: "I’m obsessed with this. I leave it in my sink always. It makes washing fruits or draining pasta so much easier and has such a simple cleanup. It also adds a nice pop of color to my kitchen. I highly recommend it." —Alyssa
Get it from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in seven colors and two-packs).
15. An adorable microwave rice and quinoa cooker because does anyone actually know how to cook rice on the stove without ending up with a squishy mess or half of it burnt to the bottom?! Plus the built-in colander is great for quinoa and other grains that need to be drained. Once it's done cooking you can just take it to the table and use it as a serving dish, which means…fewer dishes!!!
It's dishwasher-safe! And specifically designed to prevent water from overflowing while it's being microwaved so you don't have to dread the cleanup.
Promising review: "We love this rice maker! Prep time in just minutes. This has saved us so much time, especially when we need dinner done quick! The rice comes out fully cooked. In the beginning, it may take a few tries, since all microwaves are different, (setting at 800) as recommended, you'll eventually know what amount of rice goes with what amount of water, etc. I add salt to taste and a teaspoon of olive oil and it comes out delish! When done, just turn it over on your serving plate or just serve it directly from the container; afterward, just pop in dishwasher...no hard rice scraping to do." —Ani
Get it from Amazon for $27.95.
16. A set of nesting mixing bowls that not only save you space when you aren't using them, but also add a little extra joy with their super cute color palettes. Plus these aren't just regular bowls, they're ~cool~ bowls… they have handles and spouts for easy pouring and nonslip bottoms so they won't slide all over the place when you're whisking.
Promising review: "I love these mixing bowls. The packaging is very beautiful. The bonus for me is the black rings in the bottom to prevent the bowls from sliding around on the counter when you’re mixing/whisking. I bought them for making pancakes, but I use them for everything now. The set is a nice upgrade from using a regular soup bowl for mixing." —Sarita
Get the set of four from Amazon for $19.99 (available in 14 color combinations).
17. Or a beautiful patterned 10-piece mixing bowl set you would gladly leave out on the counter 24/7, they're that gorgeous. To make them even better, they're super practical with nonslip rubber on the bottom to spare you from a kitchen covered in batter. And that's not all! There are also lids that you can pop on when they're full of leftovers but you don't wanna transfer to Tupperware.
The set includes five mixing bowls of different sizes and lids for each of them.
Promising review: "I cannot rave enough about how cute and perfect this plastic/melamine bowl set is! I was looking for something that nested, was durable but lightweight, had lids, and was the variety of sizes I needed. To boot, they have nonslip rubber bottoms and an adorable floral pattern. The largest is ideal for huge salads, a whole watermelon, etc. The smallest is great for a handful of grapes. Perfect in-between sizes too. This definitely exceeded my expectations!" —Gretchen
Get it from Amazon for $37.99 (available in two designs).
18. A French-style marble butter keeper so you can always have perfectly softened butter instead of having to mangle your toast when you try to get an even layer. It uses water as a seal to help keep the butter fresh without refrigeration.
Promising review: "It’s like Zeus made a statue of himself and then carved the butter bowl out of that. I feel like society moved one step closer to true enlightenment with this invention. It really is the cat's meow, and keeps our cat from licking the butter!" —Mike
Get it from Amazon for $21.45+ (available in two styles).
19. A K-Cup storage drawer to organize the ~plethora~ of coffee choices you have lying in boxes all over your kitchen. There are three divided areas so you can even separate them by flavor, caffeination, or some other system that makes sense for you.
Each of these holds up to 36 standard-sized K-Cups.
Promising review: "I am so glad I got this. It makes for such great streamlined storage. Keeps things tidy and neat, and also helps me keep track of how many cups I have left to determine whether or not I need to add to my grocery list. It is very sturdy and I fit my machine on top. The top is very durable, hard plastic and does not buckle with the weight of the machine filled with water on top." —tunisianswife
Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in eight colors and other pod capacities).
20. A mushroom kitchen timer so freaking cute, you'll ditch your phone alarm to use this guy for alllll your timer needs. Maybe now you'll end up with some little elf helpers running around your kitchen, too.
This winds up and times up to 60 minutes, ending in a loud buzzer. Reviewers also use it to help time themselves with work tasks and studying.
Promising review: "This is whimsical and fun, my kids love it. I tell them their dinner comes from a fairy mushroom forest. 😋 Works great, keeps my little monsters in line — 'Dad, the mushroom went off.' Love it." —Vik V
Get it from Amazon for $8.95+ (available in four colors).
21. A set of collapsible silicone microwave to-go containers you can use to store leftovers at home or if you're feeling a little extra, you could even take them to restaurants so you don't have to use their wasteful to-go boxes. Plus these are sooo much better since you can just pop 'em in the microwave *and* they are designed to not leak all the precious sauce from your meal into your lap. And when you're done, just squish them down and they'll take up minimal storage space.
Promising review: "I keep one of these in my bag at all times, and now I can bring home leftovers from restaurants and not have to deal with single use plastic or Styrofoam to go containers that will just be floating around the planet a thousand years from now. They have never leaked or spilled. They are well made, easy to open and close, and take up little space in my bag." —Kristen Nicoletti
Get a set of four from Amazon for $24.95.
22. Or an absurdly adorable W&P Porter Seal-Tight glass container to keep your leftovers or packed lunch sealed, fresh, and from ever leaking. When you're ready to reheat, you can just pop this in the microwave and then toss it in the dishwasher when you're finished.
Check out a TikTok of the Porter containers in action.
If you love these, here's some more super aesthetically pleasing food storage.
Here's what BuzzFeed contributor Rachel Dunkel says about these: "Before working from home became the norm, I would use these handy jars to bring my lunch almost every day. They're perfect for things like fruit, salad, or something saucy — stuff you really don't want to get squished *and* want to ensure doesn't leak into your bag. *But* I have found that I use them just as much at home full-time! They are of course great for leftovers, but also for prepped ingredients for the week. Shredded cheese, prepped chicken, and chopped veggies usually live in these, ready to be utilized for a quick lunch or snack. They clean *super* well — I even have the cream color and it recovered from storing beets! 10/10 from me."
Get one from Amazon for $23.75+ (available in two sizes and seven colors).
23. A magnetic acrylic weekly planner you can hang on your fridge so you can easily see your meal plan, weekly appointments, or kids' activities in a much more aesthetically pleasing way than a boring ol' calendar thrown on your counter.
Check out a TikTok of the magnetic acrylic planner in action.
Each planner also comes with six colorful markers, a magnetic eraser, a magnetic pen container, and a cleaning towel.
Promising review: "I love the bright colors of the markers that it comes with it and it’s super helpful to remember what we’re having for dinner for the week! Comes with markers, an eraser, a little cloth, and some little sticky pads to put on the back of the magnets so that it doesn’t scratch your fridge up, love that!" —Krista Paige
Get it from Amazon for $17.99 (available in three sizes and a variety of other styles).
24. A fruit and veggie hammock that hangs from the bottom of your cabinets to declutter your countertops and create a stylish way to store your fruit.
This cute macrame hanging basket is handcrafted by Knapp's Knots, a San Diego-based macramé and woodcraft shop run by Anastasia Knapp, who is originally from Ukraine.
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Jenae Sitzes says, "I recently picked up this macrame basket (in the Cactus shade) and *highly* recommend it if you're looking to add a cozy touch to your kitchen. As someone with a relatively small NYC kitchen, I need every bit of counter space I can get, and this lets me keep produce out without having to take up space with a fruit basket or banana stand. I'm a big fan of utilizing vertical space as storage, and this does just that; plus, it allows for ventilation to help your fruit stay fresh for longer. I'm constantly cooking with onions or grabbing an apple as a mid-day snack, and having them right there at an arm's reach is sooo nice. BTW, these come with hooks that screw directly into a cabinet, but if you (like me) want to avoid that damage, I recommend using Command hooks — I'm using four of these small toggle hooks and they've held up the basket *with* produce in it wonderfully."
Promising review: "I love love love this! It adds a lot of charm to our kitchen, and it’s super functional. The macrame is very high-quality, and it shipped fast." —Rachel Amity
Get it from Knapp's Knots on Etsy for $28.90+ (available in two sizes and 11 colors).
25. Or a chic minimalist fruit bowl/colander so you can wash and store your fruit all in one place. The bottom also detaches for easy drainage and cleaning.

Promising review: "I love the way this looks on my counter. It is sturdy and holds all the fruit that I purchase in a week just perfectly." —Jami Lively
Get it from Amazon for $24.99.
26. The Always Pan from Our Place, which will pretty much eliminate the need for any other pan. You can use this bad boy to braise, sear, steam, strain, sauté, fry, boil, bake, and serve. Plus, it's so pretty, you won't mind that it lives on your stove because you'll use it so often it won't even be worth putting away.
The updated version is now oven-safe up to 450 degrees F!
Here's what BuzzFeed Shopping writer Taylor Steele has to say about the Always Pan: "As someone who neither enjoys cooking nor is particularly good at it, I find that the Always Pan has made being in the kitchen feel like less of a chore. Having one pan that can do everything means I don't have to second-guess every cooking decision I make. I can boil and prepare pasta in it. And I can roast Brussels sprouts. And I can make the perfect fried egg. And I can steam dumplings. The best part is that everything slides so seamlessly out of the pan and onto the plate, which also makes clean up super fast and easy. Both the amateur (read: reluctant) cook and the more seasoned chef will enjoy creating fan favorites and new recipes in the Always Pan!"
Other BuzzFeeders also LOVE this pan. Here's our review of the Always Pan, in which seven members of our team weigh in everything they love about it, from the nonstick coating to the versatility to the ~aesthetic~.
Get it from Our Place for $150+ (available in three sizes and 11 colors).
27. A gorgeous and reliable electric tea kettle that'll boil four cups of water in minutes so you can have your tea, coffee, or oatmeal wayyyy quicker than waiting for water to boil on the stove. Plus it has an automatic shutoff so you don't have to panic 10 minutes after leaving your house wondering if you remembered to unplug it.
Promising review: "I'm definitely a fan of this kettle. Our last one broke, so this was my first 'gooseneck' one. I love the Azure color and wished my other appliances would come in this color to match too now. It's cute and the spout makes it easy to pour in a controlled manner. The large capacity makes it great because I can boil enough hot water for the whole family, but it's still small enough that I can fit it on the kitchen counter and it not be a visual nuisance. Recommend!" —Kim Vo
Get it from Amazon for $37.99+ (available in four colors).
28. A dainty bird-shaped lemon juicer to give an aesthetic upgrade to your freshly squeezed juice. Easily squeeze lemons, limes, or oranges into tea, salads, hot water, or whatever else needs a little extra ~fruity~ flavor.
Promising review: "This little utensil is adorable, and quite practical. When I saw it on TikTok I knew I had to have one. You simply put a slice of lemon in and pour out the juice. It looks so pretty sitting on the table and comes in very handy." —Dian Marchese
Get it from Amazon for $4.98.
29. A set of vintage-inspired glass mugs that'll put your regular glasses to shame. You're gonna want to use these for everything from coffee to oatmeal to cereal to Cheez-Its…literally anything you can fit in 'em.
The set also comes with two spoons!
Promising review: "Came straight to Amazon when I saw these beautiful mugs on TikTok. I just had to have them! I’m very picky with mugs, these are perfect for me. Stunning to look at and a pleasure to drink out of. Highly recommend!" —Margarita Harutoonian
Get a set of two from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in seven styles).
30. An attractive storage rail you can hang inside your cabinet, but it's so pretty you won't mind having it out and proud for everyone to see. Use it for dish towels, measuring spoons, or other items you need to have nearby.
Keyaiira is a Santa Rosa, California-based shop that sells leather and fiber home goods.
And grab some S-hooks to open up your options for what you can hang on the rail.
Promising review: "Love how simple but unique this is. Great quality and easy to install. Will buy from again!" —Amanda Shaw
Get it from Keyaiira on Etsy for $32.99+ (available in seven leather loop colors, two rail materials, and three rail lengths).
31. A chic produce-saving container designed to help keep fruits and veggies fresh longer, because those things are expensive, and having them mold after like three days is enough to convince anyone (at least me…) that buying them isn't even worth it anymore.
Check out a TikTok of the berry container in action.
Promising review: "I really wanted to see if this worked so I purchased two packages of strawberries. I washed all the berries and let them dry throughly. I put half in my berry keeper box and the other in the plastic container from the store. My daughter had to ask for help with the new berry keeper, she had difficulty opening it and closing it sometimes. The berry keeper kept strawberries for 15 days, the grocery store container only kept them six days. Groceries aren’t cheap and I can use anything to prolong the life of my produce. Washed well in the dishwasher on the top rack. I’ll be purchasing more of these attractive quality boxes. I need one for blueberries and grapes." —Toogreen
Get it from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in three colors, two sizes and various sets).
32. A pair of airtight cereal dispensers, which is honestly the epitome of the organization aesthetic I dream of having. If you have room for one of these in your pantry, I envy you. With these, you can easily access your favorite snacks and cereals without having a bunch of bags and boxes scattered around that will go stale before you have time to finish them.
Psst — a lot of people use this to safely store pet food, too!
Promising review: "We have three kids and a very small kitchen with very little cabinet/counter space!!! We used to keep our cereal boxes on top of our refrigerator, but I've been trying to de-clutter, and also come up with a solution for our kids to be able to get their own cereal in the mornings. THIS IS IT!!!! It looks great on our counter and we have very little space, so it fits just right! This has been the perfect solution to giving our kids the independence they need to get their own breakfast! It has been a lifesaver!!! Love it!!!" —tenle
