1. A Dash toaster that's not like regular toasters — it's a cool toaster. Not only do reviewers say it toasts better and more evenly than other toasters, but it also has a *see through* window for monitoring the darkness of your Eggo, bagel, or toast.
2. The Chopula, a genius spatula with a thin and flexible flipper for sliding under delicate foods, a curved edge for neatly fitting into pan corners, a flat, hard edge you can use to cut foods (like when separating fried eggs!) AND a smart design so it sits up off the counter to keep your kitchen cleaner. Whew!
Promising review: "I first ran across the Chopula at a little kitchen store in North Carolina. I was so impressed with all the ways it can be used, I came back to Amazon and ordered another for myself and one each for my kids. I really do love how easy it is to get underneath fried eggs to flip them with this gadget. I had other spatulas but they always seemed too think or they were metal and couldn't use them on my nonstick pans. I find myself using it instead of a wooden spoon for a lot of things I stir on the stovetop. You can chop pounds of groundbeef with the side of it too. Nice product for sure!" —Lois Thurston

3. An omelet maker that'll deliver a delicious and healthy breakfast from the microwave to your plate in just minutes — and will taste like it was made on the stove!
4. Rubbermaid FreshWorks storage containers with ~venting technology~ to keep produce fresh for up to *80% longer.*
5. And for your everyday food storage needs, a set of Rubbermaid Brilliance containers — once you try them, you'll be ruined for your old containers. They're completely clear, shatter- and stain-resistant, leakproof, and have built-in venting lids to make mess-free reheating (no microwave splatters!) a breeze.
6. Garbage disposal cleaning tablets that'll fizz up to blast off any stuck-on food particles, leaving a lasting lemony fresh scent instead of those gross sink odors that tend to linger...and linger.... Drop it in, run your disposal, and you're done.
Promising review: "Do you have a stinky garbage disposal? If so, get some of these. They are cheap, smell nice. and the foaming action really provides you with a visual they are cleaning the drain. After using these the garbage disposal seems smoother (fewer strange noises, like it's been lubricated). I'd recommend these over Plinks any day as I feel the Plinks only hide smells whereas these foaming packets actually clean the disposal."—Sugacookie

7. Clip-on stands to keep your bags upright while pouring in leftovers for storage; you won't waste another morsel.
8. Antimicrobial silicone sponges that'll never get stinky — they're almost 100% resistant to mold and mildew, more durable than regular sponges, and won't scratch your pots and pans! Aka you won't be tossing a whole new sponge every other day.
9. Or a completely reusable sponge (run it through the washing machine or dishwasher for cleaning) made from terry cloth on one side, cotton flannel on the other, and polyester mesh for a super effective clean — without as much waste.
10. A stainless-steel bar that'll actually rid your hands of foul odors (even fish, garlic, and onions!). Just rub — with or *without* water — and the stink is gone.
11. A compact, fold-down bread slicer so you can cut even pieces of delicious loaves, whether you're picking them up at your favorite local bakery or joining the from-scratch sourdough bandwagon.
12. A stainless-steel electric corkscrew that'll open a bottle in seconds, seriously reducing the amount of time you have to wait before having a glass of wine.
13. An air fryer (from the makers of the INSTANT POT!!) so you can crisp up leftovers, make homemade versions of your favorite fried foods (without having to deal with hot oil), and more.
14. A machine-washable countertop drip catcher if you're tired of cleaning that splash zone behind your sink after ricocheting water off every! single! spoon! you wash.
15. An oil dispenser with some really smart upgrades: a dropper-style dispenser so you can add juuuuust the amount of oil you want and a silicone brush so you can spread oil on a pan with ease!
Promising review: "I saw this being used on a few TikTok accounts and had to get one for my husband. He loves being able to grab this and quickly brush it on a pan as he's cooking. Add on that it cleans super easily and you have a great gift for anyone who is looking for an easy addition to their pantry!" —Angieleigh
Get it from Amazon for $11.99.
16. And/or a OXO chef's style squeeze bottle you can fill with the olive oil you buy in bulk (that is just impossible to pour), the homemade sauces and dressings you love to drizzle on anything, or truly whatever else you love to pour. This bb is easy to cap and uncap with one hand, pours evenly and neatly (no drips!), and even has handy measurement markings on the side.
Reviewers say it's perfectly leakproof, and great for non-kitchen uses too! BTW. it's made of BPA-free plastic and is dishwasher safe.
Promising review: "I’ve used this bottle daily for almost exactly a year now. I use it for dispensing oil during cooking. It is very easy and fast to use. I just flip the lid off with my thumb and squeeze, which makes me feel like a graceful, quick and efficient chef. Oil doesn’t drip down onto the bottle at all, so my hands never get oil on them and I have no problems with drips either. I simply store the bottle directly on my shelf for quick access, because I have not seen even the slightest hint of an oil ring on my shelf, even after a year of daily use. This bottle is easy to use, clean to use, and comes apart for easy cleaning. And it still looks and feels new, so it is definitely holding up very well with a lot of use. I definitely recommend this little squeeze bottle." —Jkats
Promising review: "We buy real maple syrup by the gallon & even when decanting into a smaller syrup container or jar, my kiddos always pour way more than they need, wasting $$$$. These squeeze bottles are perfect! I filled the big one with syrup: 5, 8 & 10 year olds can serve themselves without spills, leaks, or dribbles down the side. I filled the smaller one with vegetable oil for cooking - much better to coat the bottom of a skillet than pouring from the quart container the oil comes in. For the syrup, I wash the top every time I refill — the spout tends to get a little bit of crystallization on it, but it doesn't stop the top from closing. So glad I finally bit the bullet and bought these!" —KateW
Get the 16-ounce bottle from Amazon for $10.94 (also available in a 12-ounce size and as a set of two or a set of three with a 6-ounce size).
17. A multi-use microplane to remove only the top layer of skin when zesting (no pith!), easily grate delicious shavings of parmesan cheese, and even finely mince garlic and ginger.
18. A clip-on strainer made of sturdy BPA-free silicone so you can drain your pasta one-handed! No more overcooked pasta while you try to unearth that giant colander.
19. A five-in-one wine stopper that'll also aerate, filter out cork particles, pour neatly, and re-cork the bottle. If you've got any wine about, you need this.
20. The Icebreaker, a next-level ice maker that solves several problems you might have encountered with your old ice trays. 1. It's watertight so you can store it any-which-way in your freezer (great if you have limited room) and so it doesn't absorb any funky freezer odors. 2. You fill it just like you would a water bottle, meaning no more messy trips between the sink and the fridge. 3. Just take it out of the freezer, push the sides in and then open to break the ice, and you can *pour out* cubes into your glass without ever touching any ice!
Promising review: "We have a small freezer and no icemaker, and have been using fiddly trays for years. Icebreaker Pop has changed everything! No more leaky ice trays spilling in the freezer, (or on the way to the freezer), and no ice picking up weird smells and tastes from the freezer. Icebreaker Pop is self-contained and easy to use. You fill it up with water –but be careful not to overfill, because it does expand as it freezes. (Physics!) Seal the top and put it in the freezer. Once it's frozen, you lay it on a flat surface, press down hard on it a couple of times on each side to crack the ice, and pull apart with both handles. You now have 18 cubes of clean ice that dispense from the opening, eliminating the need to touch the cubes as you add them to your glass. The cubes are a little smaller than from regular ice trays, but that's okay with us. Icebreaker Pop is also cool-looking and easy to clean; it's made up of three easy-to-separate pieces that are a snap to wash thoroughly. Very happy with this product!" —Leah Koepp
Get it from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in four styles).
Icebreaker is a Texas-based small business established in 2020 by Danish engineer Kim Jensen.
21. Or a mini ice sphere maker you may have seen all over TikTok — for a reason! Just fill, freeze, and then twist to *easily* release the ice right into the included storage container (so your ice doesn't get that funky freezer smell). It even comes with a scoop so you can film your own satisfying beverage videos.
Promising review: "I’m convinced these make my drinks taste better LOL. I just think it’s such a cute little razzle dazzle to add to drinks. It’s also easy to get the ice out you just gotta twist the tray a tiny bit and they pop right out!" —Isabella Jafarbay
Get it from Amazon for $22.99 (available in four colors).
22. A flexible scraper spatula with a unique bill that'll make the last bit of peanut butter trying to hide at the bottom of the jar yell as it's being scraped up "CURSE YOU, PERRY THE PLATYPUS!"
Promising review: "A useful and amusing stocking stuffer for my 79 year old dad. The Splatypus is gentle on his arthritic but still very busy digits. And as a Baby Boomer, he never wastes a smidgen of his beloved peanut butter or orange marmalade. Dad loves the Splatypus!" —dk72
Get it from Amazon for $12.95.
23. A trio of rubber jar openers so you can get into that delicious container of pickles or your shortcut jar of tomato sauce without straining your hand. ~Get a grip~ already!
One reviewer also had the genius idea of using the flat one under a cutting board to keep it from sliding away!
Promising review: "I bought a set of these years ago (about 10 years ago) for myself and my mother-in-law. Mine are still going strong, but she managed to wear hers out, so I ordered her another set. When my dad saw them, he wanted a pair. They both have arthritis in their hands and have tremendous difficulty opening jars and bottles. These grippers allow them to to get a strong enough grip to open all kinds of jars and bottles. The different shapes work great for different types of containers — the flats ones work well for just about anything with a lid; the cone shaped one is great for water bottles, salad dressing, etc. I would highly recommend for anyone with arthritis or a weak grip." —MGS
Get a set of three from Amazon for $7.49.
24. A rapid mac 'n' cheese cooker for those days that you want to have one of your fave comfort foods but really don't feel like turning on your stove or dealing with a strainer. This handy kitchen gadget has your back — you just need five minutes and a microwave (vs 20 minutes the old-fashioned way).
Here's how it works: Pour in the macaroni and add enough water to the fill line. Then microwave for 2 minutes and 30 seconds. Remove, stir, and microwave two more minutes, then add the other ingredients per the mac 'n' cheese instructions. Check out a TikTok of the rapid mac cooker in action. PS — people also use this to rapid cook their ramen!
Promising review: "There is nothing I dislike about this. I don't like milk so didn't add it but it's surprisingly as good or better than stove top. The texture and flavor is on point and it's not soggy like easymac. I laughed when I got this and was like wow it's no different than any container. It's harder material so idk what it's made of but the directions inside the container are on point for good mac and cheese except I drained the water. The days of scrubbing a big pot are over for me. I can't believe this actually worked. Especially bc the texture of the noodles and the taste is so on point. I got no discount and wasn't paid for this review. I just really am shocked it worked and worked so well. They got this down to a science with this container and directions. I am amazed." —me
Get it from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in six colors and a two-pack).
Rapid Brands is a California-based small business that specializes in dishwasher-safe, microwaveable, BPA-free kitchen products.
25. A sandwich cutter and sealer so you can make your own version of Uncrustables PB&J sandwiches (or sub in any filling you or your kids are craving) — and save money in the process.
The set comes with a round shape, a square shape, and a double triangle cutter for that classic cut-sandwich shape.
Promising review: "These have been a GAME CHANGER in this house!! My son has always begged me for Uncrustables but my wallet didn’t agree with them. I LOVE being able to make them at home and customize them to exactly what they would like them filled with! I make two weeks' worth of sandwiches at a time and store them in sandwich bags in the freezer so in the morning during the school year we can just grab and go! Love them!" —Katherine Smaczniak
Get it from Amazon for $15.26.
26. A three-tier Wilton cooling rack that can hold *three* cakes or *dozens* of cookies, and collapses down easily, making it a must-have for baking enthusiasts who have smaller-than-ideal kitchens. For smaller batches, just separate the racks to use just one or two at a time, too!
Plus it's made with a nonstick coating so alllll of your cookie pops off the rack and onto your serving platter (or right into your mouth tbh).
Promising review: "This cooling rack holds about three dozen cookies. What I love the most about it is that it stacks on top of each other so it takes up a lot less space. Great product for the price." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $14.99.
27. A handier-than-you-might-think cup rinser to power-wash any of that annoying residue on the bottom of wine glasses, mugs, blender cups, and more (it's popular with parent reviewers for baby bottles!), without having to spend time scrubbing by hand or take out crusted-on glasses from the dishwasher if you didn't pre-rinse.
Check out a TikTok of the cup washer in action. It includes instructions to easily hook it up to your hot water line. And just note that it won't install on sinks without a flat edge!
Promising review: "This installed easier than removing the existing soap dispenser, which was always a nightmare. This has the same type of jetted sprayer that you would use to jet out a drain line, so yeah it'll spray the stink off of a turd. It cleans baby bottles, Contigo, yeti, spaghetti sauce, baby food, mason jars with a couple of presses. Highly recommended over the messy soap dispenser!" —Chuq
Get it from Amazon for $21.99.
28. FryAway, a plant-based solidifying powder capable of turning leftover cooking oil in to an easily disposable solid, so you *don't* end up pouring grease down the sink and dealing with clogged pipes later on. And it hardens completely, meaning no leaking in the trash!
Just sprinkle a packet of the power into your *hot* oil, wait for it to cool down...and toss! FryAway is available in two sizes: Pan Fry (which comes with four packets each capable of solidifying two cups of oil each) or Deep Fry (which comes with two packets, each capable of solidifying eight cups of oil each).
Promising review: "Honestly I didn’t know if this would work, waiting for it to cool down made me nervous, but once it was at room temperature it was solid. It popped out of the fryer so nicely. Worth every penny." —Emma
Get it from Amazon for $12.99 (available in two sizes).
FryAway is a woman-owned and Latina-owned small business, and they donate 1% of revenue to nonprofits focused on water conservation.
29. A lemon-lavender soy candle made of soy wax (it burns slower than paraffin!) for a long-lasting fresh scent that'll fill your kitchen — but not overpower — if cooking or trash can smells get to be too much.
30. Dawn Powerwash, a borderline magical spray-on dish soap that BLASTS through tough grease and baked-on messes so you don't "have" to let dishes "soak" in the sink overnight (and smell gnarly by morning). Every dish will be done in record time.
Just spray on (don't add water until you rinse!) and wipe. I'm not joking when I say that the first time I used Dawn Powerwash on a lasagna pan, I almost cried. I will never be without it!
Promising review: "I bought this stuff because my sister swears by it. I've seen the commercials and thought, yeah sure... But first off, the fresh scent smells amazing without being overpowering. Secondly, it cleans oily, greasy stuff like a dream! My husband used my stockpot on his grill burner, resulting it in being COVERED in black sooty stuff. And everything it touched also received a healthy dose of soot. I initially tried the normal Dawn dish soap and while it did clean it up, it was smearing it and not easy to clean. I pulled out this stuff, sprayed a bit on the pot. BOOM, it was literally clean. Seriously, awesome stuff." —Laura Pirkle
Get the starter kit (with one reusable spray bottle and one refill) from Amazon for $8.44.
31. A garlic press, but not just *any old* garlic press. This one has a built-in spring-loaded scraper that sends all your nicely minced garlic right into your pan (no stinky garlic fingers here). And you don't even need to peel your cloves beforehand!
Promising review: "Was desperately seeking a garlic press after my previous one started chipping and eventually fell apart. This press is obviously more money than the replacement one I bought at the supermarket but it is worth it. When you press a clove of garlic, the garlic actually gets minced and comes out of the press. It is easy to clean, insuring that there is never any leftover garlic bits to find on the next use. And you don't have to look around for the other piece to push through the little holes, because it is securely attached. No chipping despite the bright red color. Also lightweight." —Susan E.
Get it from Amazon for $24.95 (also available in a metal version for $54.95).
32. An easy-breezy pineapple corer perfect 🎶 if you like piña coladas 🎶... but not spending a fortune on pre-cut pineapple. This thing is so easy to use, it's like a tropical vacation in your kitchen.
33. A silicone tube designed to easily peel garlic. Just pop the clove in the tube and roll it back and forth against the table or counter.
34. A pair of claw shredders you'll want to get your ~paws~ on ASAP for all of your meat carving and pulling needs.
35. A cast-iron skillet that'll get job after job after job done — steaks! skillet cookies! at-home pizzas! Keep this bb seasoned (and don't let it rust!) and you won't have to ever replace it.
36. The (2.0 version!) nonstick ceramic Always Pan (this one's PFOA-free), because that dinner you spent valuable time on shouldn't be burnt on! This one's designed to do the work of TEN pieces of regular old cookware, and comes with a lockable lid, steamer basket, pouring spout, and a nesting spatula with a built-in rest.
37. Cheese storage paper for keeping your cheddar sharp, your Parmesan poppin', and your Brie better than ever for way, way longer.
38. An adjustable rolling pin with removable rings to let you roll out cookie dough or pie crust to an exact thickness in no time flat. AND it has measurements printed on the length of the pin for easy pie crust rolling (and comes with a pastry mat with measurements printed on it too).
39. A pack of K-Cup cleaning pods, because you've...maybe never cleaned your Keurig before... That's ok, because this is here to help! Just run it through, and you'll be shocked at how much gross-looking water comes out — and at how much better your morning coffee tastes.
Promising review: "OK, so these cleaner pods are awesome! I didn't know how gross our Keurig was until today. The big mason jar on the left is when I actually ran the cleaner through plus one rinse cycle. The middle one is another rinse cycle and the last one, on the right, is the last one I did. So yes, I would suggest running two or three rinse cycles instead of the recommended one. But it's still an awesome product for the price! I have a 2.0 and I had no issues." —Mads0421
Get a pack of six from Amazon for $9.95.
40. A stainless-steel, dishwasher-safe ice cream scoop with a ~chiseled edge~ and ergonomic grip for effortless serving — no letting your ice cream sit out for 10 minutes, no microwaving, no chipping at it slowly with a spoon. And it'll make dishing up a sundae feel less like arm day at the gym.

43. And a popcorn kernel sifting bowl anyone who has unknowingly bitten down hard on an unpopped kernel (ouch!) will truly find genius. It has a handy dandy straining bottom — just pour in your popcorn, pop the lid on, and shake! All those annoying unpopped pieces will fall through the holes into the removable bottom section.
It fits a full bag of microwave popcorn (or about 4 quarts if you pop your own!). Plus you can use this as a regular strainer for rinsing produce on other occasions! And it's dishwasher safe.
Promising review: "My husband loves popcorn. However, unlike me, he HATES any unpopped kernels. So after a lot of searching, we found this and ordered it. OMG......he loves this thing. And I love that I no longer have to hear him complain about how many kernels are in the bottom of his bowl! So if you want to eat popcorn without having a bunch of kernels in the bottom, DEFINITELY order this one........" —R. Harris
Get it from Amazon for $16.50 (available in four colors).
44. A "Bread Buddy" storer and dispenser to keep store-bought sliced bread much fresher than those annoying closures they come with. (And the hard container means no squishing too!) Plus, you can just pull the bag down the sides of the container to raise up the slices themselves for easy access when you're packing a lunch wayyyy too early in the morning.
Check out a TikTok of the Buddeez sandwich bread dispenser in action.
Promising review: "The Buddeez Sandwich Bread Dispenser is great! It does exactly what it was intended for. I live alone and I don't quite go through bread often enough before the last quarter section of the loaf starts to go stale. I was originally looking for something to put a loaf of bread in as a shell for my vacuum sealer, that would keep the bread from getting crushed from the pressure. This dispenser solved all of my problems. Thank you!" —DRMcQuaig

46. A TikTok-famous grape cutter to make halving your tot's favorite snack much quicker and easier. But that's not all — it also works on small tomatoes for easy salad prep. You'll be surprised how much time this little gadget saves.
Promising review: "Initially, I really felt silly and lazy for buying this. But after using it, I feel like a genius and wish I bought it sooner! My kiddos love grapes and I love how it gives me a slight peace of mind knowing it can gets diced up, allowing me to briefly walk away if I need to with less worry. Overall, I’m very happy with this purchase and I tell everyone how awesome it is!" —Dom
Promising review: "I cannot believe that I’ve spent so much time in the past just slicing grapes and olives. This tool is absurd, ridiculous and absolutely wonderful. The pieces are just the perfect size for salads, either savory or sweet. I’m looking forward to trying it on grape tomatoes, too. I would give it more stars if I could." —Minnie A. Hamilton

54. A roll of ~bamboo~ paper towels you can toss in the washing machine and reuse over *120 times*. They're super-absorbent and durable, but are soft enough to use on your skin, too. You can even use them on your Swiffer!
55. A quick and easy breakfast sandwich maker so you can enjoy a hot and satisfying brekkie without having to go out — or shelling out those extra bucks.
56. A rapid egg cooker you're sure to think is ~eggsquisite~; it can make hard-, medium-, or soft-boiled eggs, *plus* poached or scrambled eggs and omelets.
