I feel like a nice blender is an essential. I love making smoothies, or blending up vegetables to put in my soup. This blender is powerful, and simple to use. I also love that it comes with smoothie cups to minimize the dirty dishes!

I used to think electric kettles were dumb, but they are so nice. They boil water so fast compared to a microwave or stove. I love that this one allows you to either boil water or set a specific temperature. I also love that theres a way to make tea ...

This toaster's great. Everyone needs a toaster and this one is small, cheap, and works great. I got it when I was in college and it got the job done. There's no need to get some fancy toaster! This is one just what you need.

Just like the lid organizer, I love this tray organizer. While this is technically made for pot/pan lids, I use it to keep my baking trays, cutting boards, and lids organized in one place. Just like the lid organizer, you can adjust the amount of spa...

A bit on the more expensive side for a utensil organizer, but is such a good investment. I love the look of the bamboo, and the adjustable sizing of the width. It has a lot of sections to place various utensils and even other kitchen tools!

You need a box grater in your kitchen. I love using it to grate my cheese when I'm making mac and cheese or if I want to grind something like garlic or ginger. I like that this one has a little container to put on the bottom if you want to measure ou...

I think a grater is a great gadget to have in the kitchen. While you can zest with a box grater, this is a great option when you need to grate/zest less and is less to clean. I like that this zester even comes with a little brush to help get the food...
