    27 Kitchen Products Under $10 That People Actually Swear By

    These are low-~whisk~, high-reward purchases.

    1. A veggie spiralizer for an easy way of making delish zucchini noodles from scratch. Bonus: it'll easily fit in your drawers.

    2. A stainless steel bar that'll erase the smell of garlic and fish from your hands.

    3. A set of stove counter gap covers to prevent crumbs and liquids from falling into the unreachable crevice.

    4. A 5-in-1 unitool you can use as a slotted spoon, a solid spoon, a spatula, a turner, and a cutting tool.

    5. A manual food chopper for breaking up ground meats, mashing potatoes, or cutting up hard-boiled eggs.

    6. All-natural bottle cleaning tablets that'll dissolve decade-old coffee stains in your (supposedly) stainless steel thermos. The best part? No scrubbing required!

    7. A spill stopper to catch a pasta-boil-over disaster before it happens.

    8. A flexible sink strainer so you can easily empty out food particles by pulling on the tab and inverting it.

    9. A bottle of Barkeeper's Friend soft cleanser for tackling anything from rusty knives to grease-marked pans to stained porcelain sinks.

    10. A flat whisk that can do everything a regular ballon whisk can but will be a lot easier to clean.

    11. A pack of cleaning tablets to remove the lime and mineral build-up (as well any food residue) in your dishwasher, leaving it clean and odor-free.

    12. A pack of dishcloths can dry quickly and remain odor-free — they'll last a lot longer than your average sponge.

    13. A dish squeegee for scraping leftover food off plates and bowls so you won't have to scrub them as hard. It's also great for swiping any wet or dry spills on the countertop into the sink.

    15. A terracotta bear to keep your brown sugar from congealing into a hard and unusable rock.

    16. A digital food scale so you can be extra precise when measuring out coffee beans or baking ingredients.

    18. A pack of long-lasting sponges that won't scratch up your nice pans or start to smell musty after a few days.

    19. An instant-read meat thermometer, because it's the most accurate way to find out if the turkey is really cooked through.

    21. A smart funnel for transfering the lasts bits of BBQ sauce or dish detergent from one bottle to another — hands-free.

    22. A fish spatula that'll get under anything — flaky fish fillets, gooey cookies, fried eggs, and more.

    23. A pair of bag racks to hold storage (or trash) bags open so both your hands can be free to scoop the food.

    24. A set of silicone food huggers so you can abandon cellophane wrap forever. It'll even work on jars and cans.

    26. A 3-in-1 tool any ~hardcore~ avocado fan should get.

    27. A pair of silicone-covered tongs to boldly go where no human hands have gone (deep into a hot oven or a boiling pot of water).
