1. A can of fire extinguishing spray for keeping in your kitchen cabinet just in case you get carried away scrolling TikTok while your chicken parm is in the oven. It discharges up to four times more than a real fire extinguisher and is so much easier to carry.
Promising review: "I bought one for beside the grill, one for beside the stove, one for the laundry room, and one for the car. I think the intuitive, easy to use design is fantastic. We already have the muscle memory for using a spray can. In an emergency, it's so much easier to grab this and use it, and turn a small fire into a non-fire. I don't have time to remember a three step method of fire control when my bacon has gotten out of control on the stove. I'm not a firefighter! I'd really like to have one in every room. Think about it. Isn't it better to immediately contain a small fire than deal with a big one? This could save your life, and your house." —K. Zander

2. A stainless steel "soap" to remove the odor of pungent foods from your fingers. After chopping up some garlic, rub your hands on this bar just like a real bar of soap — then bid the smell *farewell*.
Promising review: "This little bar of 'soap' does exactly what it is intended to do. Do you have a sponge or rag that has that...odor? Simply wash your hands under the sink with this little guy and suddenly, your hands smell like hands again. I've used it after handling several smelly items that have a tendency to make an odor stick with you. It's worked consistently every time." —Jeremy
Get it from Amazon for $9.59 (available in three styles).
3. A sleek stand so you can keep both your lid and stirring spoon upright and off the counter to prevent a puddle of random liquids forming.
Promising review: "I personally always hate it when you pull off the lid of something and the lid is leaking water everywhere while being super hot. With my new solid-surface counters, I definitely don't want to set the lid on there and ruin them and putting it on the stovetop is either annoying due to the water mess or impossible if you are using the whole stove. This was made for the fussy new-home person like me. I can now set the lid down down safely and not worry about where all that hot water is going." —Susan
Get it from Amazon for $6.99.
4. A bread maker because waking up at 6 a.m. to get fresh bread is waaay too early — instead, make it from the comfort of your own kitchen! The bowl is partially closed, allowing steam to circulate inside, which makes for the softest, moistest bread you'll ever eat. C'mon, you *knead* this.
This is both microwave and dishwasher safe. It's capable of withstanding temperatures up to 428 degrees.
Promising review: "I love this. It's very easy to use and to clean. I have been trying to make fresh bread every week and this is much easier than using my dutch oven. I have been trying different recipes with this bread maker and so far all have come out great!" —Natalia Corres
Get it from Amazon for $27.95.
5. A pack of cheese storage paper to keep even the moldiest of cheeses fresh. This specially designed porous paper will extend its lifetime, unlike plastic wrap or deli sheets. It's un-brie-lievable how much longer your cheese will last!
The paper recreates the environment cheese is aged in by breathing just the right amount and maintaining perfect humidity.
Promising review: "Before I bought this cheese paper, I would do the cheese search in the refrigerator. After buying cheeses, opening them, and then rewrapping them in heaven knows what, it was always the same result: moldy cheese. This box contains the paper in sheets plus some stickers that you can write on with the name of the cheese and the date it was wrapped or even sell by date. There are also pictures of a sheep, cow, and goat so the source can be identified by circling or checking one of them! What I also like is that the cheeses can be rewrapped after use and amazingly the stickers still stick! The paper can also be cut to size to wrap smaller cheeses. So far I have noted that the cheeses have stayed fresh with not a trace of mold. I highly recommend this product to all cheese lovers!" —Prairie Woman
Get a pack of 15 sheets from Amazon for $15 (also available in larger packs).
6. Or a cheese keeper that you can just plop your brie into so you can ensure its freshness (or as fresh as cheese can be).
Promising review: "Oh wow! I followed the directions and put that moist paper towel in with my cheese, on the bottom and put some unwrapped and cut Jarlsberg wedge in it. I left for vacation and two weeks later came back, and it was still fresh and moist and not moldy! Huzzah! I'm MIGHTY impressed with this simple gadget. I hate food waste and this is super helpful!" —Awesome Taste
Get it from Amazon for $11.54.
7. A Souper Cubes freezer tray for saving hard-to-freeze liquids like sauces and soups, especially if you like to distribute them in portions.
This is BPA-free and dishwasher safe!
Souper Cubes is a US-based small business that specializes in bake-and-freeze storage products.
Promising review: "LOVE, LOVE, LOVE. My freezer is so much more organized now. Gone are the days of having to defrost an entire bag of chicken broth for one cup for a recipe. I now have perfectly portioned 1/2-cup and 1-cup blocks ready to go. They fit easily in freezer bags, take up less space, and make me incredibly happy. There was a lot of attention to detail put into the design and I particularly appreciate the wire inside the rim that holds everything steady — no more worrying about spilling all the liquid on the way to the freezer. Just a fantastic product all around. I purchased this and a cheaper version from another manufacturer at the same time but returned the other product. This one is definitely worth the added cost." —Kate
Get it from Amazon for $19.95.
8. A mini skillet naturally seasoned with cooking oil to help prevent food from sticking on the pan, and also help prevent rusting! Now, you can make a perfectly shaped sunny-side-up egg without it flowing everywhere.
Promising review: "I have the 6.5-inch and it's the basically size of a regular napkin. I got it to make pizzookies (pizza cookies). This size is perfect for me. I've used my skillets for cookies and eggs (mountain man breakfast) and it hasn't caused me any issues. In fact, my eggs didn't stick at all! Overall, great. I think I'll order two more to use with friends over!" —jhfitness
Get it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in six sizes).
9. A cake slicer for serving up a flawless slice of your famous red velvet cake. Plus, it creates even slices so no one will be fighting over the largest piece.
10. A cookie press to create the prettiest of cookie shapes in just a few seconds. The Great British Bake Off will be waiting for you.
This kit includes 14 different steel disks, six decorating tips, a storage box, recipes, and it's dishwasher safe!
Promising review: "I bought this press a few years ago and have used it several times. I just got it out for this year's batch of Christmas cookies, and was reminded again of how well this works compared to others I have used. I have owned four other presses, one electric and three manual, plus I remember fighting with my mother's manual press many years ago. This one makes perfect cookies! One squeeze of the handle dispenses the correct amount of dough for the cookie. It is easy to fill, easy to change cookie molds, and easy to clean. I would definitely buy this for a gift." —Laura M. Young
Get it from Amazon for $34.47.
11. A pair of herb scissors with FIVE blades. It'll *snip* off so much prep time and cut through herbs or leafy greens in just a matter of seconds!
Promising review: "I like to grow herbs and use them in salads, soups, and many other recipes. I received these as a birthday gift and can't believe how fast and easy it is to cut up cilantro, basil, parsley, lovage, etc. My husband tried them today too for the first time while making guacamole, and found that slicing the cilantro went very quickly. The storage case-cleaner is very efficiently designed too. I ordered four of these sets to give as gifts." —Lucille P. Nawara
Get them from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in three colors).
12. A tomato knife so you can turn Fruit Ninja into reality (without the bombs ofc) and chop up those fruits and veggies into perfect slices.
Promising review: "I love this knife! I stumbled upon a description when I was shopping for a sushi knife. It was so cheap, I decided to take a chance. Wow. It is such a great little knife. Yes, it works perfectly on soft tomatoes. But, to be honest, I use it for many other fruits and vegetables. It is amazingly sharp, the serrated edge is very effective, and it has a great feel in my hand." —Jane S.
Get it from Amazon for $15.60.
13. A cutting board prep station letting you chop and store ingredients all in one place. Who's up next on the chopping block? Def not you after using this 2-in-1!
Promising review: "I purchased this product because I do a lot of food prep and have challenges placing prepared cuttings into containers. This unique cutting board allows me to cut various foods and slide them through an opening directly into a sealable plastic container. the time savings and organization allows for faster prep time. The bamboo board works well for this purpose." —N Hara
Get it from Amazon for $77.99.
14. An adjustable bakeware rack for organizing your pans upright instead of constantly looking at an eyesore of a metal pile.
YouCopia is a woman-owned small business that specializes in home organization products.
Promising review: "By the picture, I was expecting a lightweight plastic base with flimsy metal uprights that would hold a lightweight pan or cutting board. BOY WAS I WRONG!!!! This is a very heavy-duty base with a good grip on the bottom. The uprights are heavy coated wire to prevent scratching of the items it is holding. I am SO PLEASED with the quality of this rack that I will be ordering a couple more to use for my skillets. Buy with confidence as these are really a quality product." —labbie1
Get it from Amazon for $19.99.
15. A non-stick grill mat so you can prevent even the tiniest of crumbs from falling through or sticking to the grates. You can even do your prep directly on the mat and carry it over to the grill, and it's dishwasher safe for easy cleanup. Live out your hibachi chef dreams of creating an onion volcano with this nifty mat!
Promising review: "This was a Father's Day gift for my hubby who loves to grill. We've used them now for three months and still love them! He has told all of his friends about them as well. GREAT for asparagus and other small veggies that are prone to falling in the grill. Also makes grilled salmon a lot easier to enjoy. Clean up is a breeze. I love that they are dishwasher safe." —Becca
Get a three-pack from Amazon for $24.95.
16. An inconspicuous jar opener because opening jars with your bare hands is a struggle that no one should have to go through — especially just to get one pickle spear.
To install, remove the backing of the adhesive and stick it on, then screw in the three included screws to secure it!
Promising review: "I bought this last year and have used it many times on many different lids, even use it to open gallon milk jugs when those pesky plastic attachments just won't seem to give. I haven't found anything I try that it won't open for me. No more banging on the counter, just hold it under my cabinet and slid it in the V-shaped opening, give it a little twist to open, hardly any effort at all. It was easy to attach under the cabinet, I put mine so the wide opening faces forward. I personally think every house should have one of these." —Addie
Get It from Amazon for $18.55.
17. A hanging garbage bag holder so you don't have to go back and forth to the trash can while making your famous vegetable stir-fry. Plus, you won't run the risk of dropping scraps on the floor along the way to throw them out. Reviewers also use this for composting!
Promising review: "I love this product because I'm always chopping vegetables and cutting up meat. I would be making several trips to the trash. Now I'm able to make meal prep quicker, easier, and cleaner! A good way to use up some of those plastic bags from the grocery store, too!" —Ellen Holcomb
Get it from Amazon for $7.99.
18. A set of nylon kitchen knives because your toddler keeps begging to help you cook. Start 'em young with these knives that aren't sharp enough to cut skin but *are* sharp enough to cut food.
Promising review: "My 2-year-old was desperate to join me in the kitchen, and I wanted to be sure she was safe. These knives come in three sizes. They are not sharp to the touch but easily cut through most fruits and vegetables! For denser foods like carrots, she needed a bit of assistance, but she was quickly chopping all of the asparagus for dinner!!! We just got these, so I can't speak to durability, but for the price, these seem like a great value for my little chef!" —Nicholas and Zarya Fogelson
Get a three-pack from Amazon for $14.91.
19. A dishwasher magnet so you'll have a status update on your dirty dishes in case (*ahem*) someone always puts dirty plates in when everything else is clean.
Promising review: "A stylish, functional little magnet. Eliminates the need to wonder if that cup looks dirty or is it just hard water etc. Also just looks cute on the dishwasher. I do not run mine daily as I have a small household and when it does get filled, more often than I'd like to admit, the clean dishes live in the dishwasher, getting picked off as needed. This makes that process much simpler." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $4.95.
20. A roll-up drying rack for your kitchen sink if you don't have a dishwasher or any more counter room. Just place it on top of your sink and leave your wet dishes to dry. Plus, if you have hot pots and pans, you can place them on here if you need to move them from the stove.
Promising review: "This is very sturdy and it allows air into cups, pans, etc. to dry easily – unlike a drying pad. It holds heavy pans with no problem. The color is soft and goes great with my white and gray countertops and it's extremely functional. It's easy to clean, just roll it up and store it under the sink. Highly recommend. 👍🏻" —Denise
Get it from Amazon for $12+ (available in four sizes).
21. A flexible spoon that's multifunctional — it measures, it stirs, it flips, it can do anything! OK, not literally anything, but you get the point.
It's heat resistant up to 600 degrees and designed with an ergonomic handle, stiff nylon core, and flexible angled head for easy stirring. You can also get a blender spatula, jar scraper, and assorted sizes of spoons from the same link.
Promising review: "This is a perfect mix between a spoon and a spatula. Perfect for pans that can’t tolerate metal utensils. You can scoop, move things around in the pan, and the end doesn’t bend everywhere. It’s also dishwasher safe, so cleanup is a snap. I would consider buying more because my other cookware just doesn’t compare! This will be my go-to from now on." —Katherine Barnes
Get it from Amazon for $11.99 (available in four colors).
22. A pack of dishwasher-safe stretch lids for covering up half-sliced fruits, bowls, and blenders — whatever you need covered, these lids can do it. Wave goodbye to the struggles of sticking on plastic wrap, and welcome these babies into your life.
These are also safe to use in the freezer.
Promising review: "I purchased these lids in error. I thought that I was ordering a different set of lids. When they arrived, I was disappointed that I had ordered wrong ones but I have to say, boy! Was I wrong! This was the best 'mistake' I made! They stretch and fit tight on any container. I love the variety of the lid sizes and they perform very well. I'm so glad I purchased these, even though it was in error." —shanry
Get a seven-pack from Amazon for $16.99.
23. A red cast-iron tortilla press kit because the only thing better than street tacos are 100% homemade tacos (especially if they're al pastor IMO). They're made in Mexico out of old Singer sewing machines, which are cast iron, so you just know they'll last long.
Verve Culture is based in Steamboat Springs, Colorado. This woman-owned small business was founded by a mother and daughter, Jules and Jacquie. They curate products for their shop that are "made in the country of origin using traditional practices."
Promising review: "This tortilla press is SO cute and lets you make delicious tortillas super easily. I love the pop of red on my counter and guests always give me compliments when I take it out for Taco Tuesday!" —Carly
Get it from Verve Culture for $48.
24. A pack of reusable baking cups so you'll always stay stocked with cupcake liners. That way, whenever you watch Cupcake Wars and find yourself craving some baked goodies every time, you can just whip some up.
This 12-pack of food-grade silicone cups are safe to use in the freezer, microwave, and oven. They can handle temperatures up to 500 degrees and come in pink, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple.
Promising review: "These little thingies are perfect! I made some muffins with them and they came out incredibly easily with no residue on the cups at all. I didn't have to use grease or anything. The colors are bright and fun, and they you plenty of each color. These are slightly smaller than a regular cupcake pan/liner, which is actually perfect for my purposes. As others have mentioned, the cups are a bit on the flimsy side, so make sure they're on a baking sheet before you fill them because they can be difficult to transport once full." —kapplejack
Get a pack of 12 from Amazon for $7.15 (also available in a 24-pack).
25. A dishwasher-safe garlic peeler that'll keep the clove intact while removing the peels and keeping them inside. Just toss your garlic in, press down, and roll to get perfectly peeled garlic in seconds. The best part: Your hands stay odor-free!
This includes a ventilated case for storage.
Promising review: "OK, this is DEFINITELY not a gimmick! Follow the instructions and this will save you time and sanity in the kitchen! Roll it with minimal pressure and it works like a champ. It also rinses very easily and dries quick. The case has holes on either end to ensure it dries completely in between uses when you toss it in a drawer. I will never hand/knife smash garlic and fight with those pesky skins sticking to everything ever again." —ThatKasper
Get it from Amazon for $9.99.
26. And a garlic rocker so you can continue to keep your fingers free from the garlicky scent. Just rock it back and forth a few times and you're done!
27. A tofu press to drain tofu from all its moisture in just 15 minutes — leaving it ready to absorb other flavors when cooking! There are two pressure levels, so whether you have firm or soft tofu, it'll always stay intact.
BTW, TofuBud is a small biz based in San Francisco, California!
Promising review: "I used to use a kitchen towel to squeeze water out of tofu. The process was time consuming, messy, and took a kitchen towel straight from clean drawer to the laundry. The TofuBud works amazingly well. Push the plunger to the second compression, and 30 minutes later, the perfect amount of waster has been removed to make tofu patties. Add an egg and some light soy sauce and brown in a non stick skillet. Great!" —MT Nester
Get it from Amazon for $26.95.
28. A microwave omelet maker for those mornings when you egg-ccidentally snoozed your alarm one too many times. Just beat some eggs with milk and add the mixture in with your desired ingredients for a perfectly cooked omelet in just five minutes!
This is made of 100% platinum silicone that's resistant to high temperatures and is dishwasher-safe.
Promising review: "This product is brilliant because it works on the steam concept of cooking. I suggest cooking frozen vegetables with some butter first then adding two to three eggs on top. Instant frittata. Adjust your cooking times because it takes some time to perfect it." —Enjoy Good Design
Get it from Amazon for $17.95.
29. A set of stove counter gap covers because we all know those crumbs and liquids that fall in between the way-too-narrow gap will probably never be cleaned up.
Promising review: "I ordered these silicone gap covers to keep debris from falling in between our kitchen appliances and the counters. The thing that sold me was when I read a review on here that stated that they were able to use it for the gap between the stove and fridge. I have the same setup in my apartment. Countertop on one side of the stove and fridge on the other. The silicone sticks very well to the fridge, stove, and counter. It doesn’t move around very easily, which is a good thing. Just make sure you place it with the wider side of the strip towards the counter as shown in the picture." —Kevin B.
Get two from Amazon for $10.95 (available in three sizes and three colors).
30. A hot-to-cold coffee device for those who need iced lattes even in the winter (guilty!) since it can chill drinks in just 60 seconds. Psst, it can also chill wine — um, yes please!
Promising review: "Got this for my boyfriend who hates hot coffee but makes his coffee with the Keurig. This little thing fits right on the freezer door cleans really easily, and cools down whatever you put into it so quickly. We have even used it to cool down wine and other spirits that aren't carbonated. It beats adding ice to a drink you don't want to water down!" —J_Thrill
Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in five colors).
31. A reviewer-beloved veggie chopper so you can feel like the next Gordon Ramsey. This multi-functioning gadget chops, spiralizes, and slices veggies instantly so you don't have to, AND it comes with a built-in storage container that'll leave your kitchen ~mess free~.
Fullstar is a small biz that specializes in super useful kitchen gadgets!
Promising review: "Makes life so much easier. I can't imagine chopping onions or bell peppers by hand anymore, and it does so much more. We used to have a Prepworks chopper, which was a similar idea, but you had to press so hard to chop, and it broke after not too long. This one requires very little effort to cut through the food and it has a generous container." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $23.95+ (available in two styles and three colors).
32. A set of silicone oven rack edge protectors that can be cut to whatever size you need. If you've burned your hands or forearms countless times, this was designed for you.
Promising review: "These things are awesome. Not only are they attractive and reasonably priced, but are so easy to put on and they stay on the rack. Most important, I find they help to protect your arm when reaching into the oven from getting any bad burns. Highly recommend these, I'm so happy with them I'm buying a set for my mom and daughters-in-law." —Sandi
Get a four-pack from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in three colors).
33. A pig egg yolk separator — it's just as useful as it is adorable. Simply put the pig's lips to the yolk and press in to suck it up.
34. A strainer that attaches to any pot so you don't have to *strain* your forearms holding up a colander. Plus, no pasta will be a flight risk and end up in the sink.
It's made of flexible silicone and designed to fit most pots and pans.
Promising review: "Years ago I had a pot strainer that worked well. When it finally broke I bought several nearer versions and NONE of them fit anything well. I ended up getting a large bowl style strainer which worked but took up valuable cabinet space. This clip-on silicone strainer is amazing! It fits every pot in my cabinet, keeping food in and letting the water or grease out. Plus it frees up valuable cabinet space. I highly recommend it!" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $12.99+ (available in five colors).
35. A NanoFoamer milk frother to create cafe-esque lattes and cappuccinos with microfoam. The battery-powered handheld frother will turn your cup of joe foamy in just a matter of seconds!
The kit includes a frother, two screens, a protective hood, an adhesive wall mount, the user manual, and an access code for a latte art master class.
Get it from our Goodful shop for $57.
36. And finally, The Unofficial Disney Parks Cookbook so you don't have to spend an unspeakable amount of money on Mickey waffles, churros, and every other food they sell there. Bippity boppity boo, your wallet will be thanking you.
