My most used kitchen gadgets include a $14 knife sharpener, an olive oil sprayer, and a clever tool for opening everything from cans to pickle jars. And unlike the fancy cookware in my kitchen, these 12 gadgets solve everyday problems that home cooks face. And they’re all under $25 on Amazon. Read on to learn how these tools can save you money, minimize waste, speed up meal preparation, and make cleaning your kitchen a breeze.

Kitchenllence 4-in-1 knife sharpener

This sharpener will keep your knives sharp like new no matter how long you use them. The three-in-one design includes a diamond rod to repair and straighten the metal, a tungsten steel rod to create a sharp V-shape, and a ceramic rod to sharpen the blade. The entire process takes less than a minute. I love that the ergonomic handle and non-slip base keep my fingers out of harm’s way. The sharpener also comes with cut-resistant gloves for added safety.

Yarramate 2-In-1 Olive Oil Spray Dispenser

I haven’t bought a single can of cooking spray since I bought this 2-in-1 oil dispenser. It’s pourable and sprayable, so you can use it to sauté vegetables, dress salads, grease muffin tins, and prepare food for the air fryer. The 16-ounce bottle is made with shatterproof glass, has a filter to prevent clogging, an automatic lid that opens when you pour, and a pressurized nozzle to minimize drips.

Ototo Fungai Refrigerator Deodorizer

I’m admittedly not the best at cleaning refrigerators, but this little guy absorbs bad odors between cleanings and makes the process look adorable. You fill him with baking soda, put the hat on and place it on the shelf. A hole in the cap absorbs odors from produce, dairy, meat, and fish. Made of silicone, it is BPA-free and dishwasher safe.

Souper Cubes 1 Cup Silicone Freezer Mold

These Souper Cubes freezer trays are very convenient, especially if you live in a one or two person household. I use it to freeze leftover sauces and soups, and since the tray is made of silicone, I can take out the leftovers for one person without having to thaw them. Each compartment holds up to 1 cup and the lid is leak-proof to prevent spills. The tray is heat resistant up to 415°F, so you can also put it in the microwave or use it as a baking pan.

Kuhn Rikon Lid Lifter Master Opener

My mom gave me this Kuhn Rikon master opener for Christmas three years ago. It was wonderful. (This is the only can opener I’ve owned that has lasted me over six months.) In addition to its durability, I like that it cuts the sides of cans without creating sharp edges. It also has a built-in bottle opener, pull tab, screw top grip, and vacuum release tool for jars, in addition to a pincher tool to help lift the lid.

Swedish dish towel cellulose sponge cloth 10 pieces

I used to be a paper towel fiend. Then I switched to these Swedish dish towels. I can’t go back now. It’s super absorbent, washable and reusable, durable and textured, making it a cross between a paper towel and a rag. However, since it’s made from cotton-based cellulose, it dries super fast without mold or odor. I use mine to absorb spills, wipe down countertops, scrub the stove, and scrub the sink, and I’ve saved so much money in the process.

Food Huggers 5 Reusable Food Savers

I’m a big fan of food huggers that allow you to store cut produce in the fridge without wrapping it. Simply push the sliced ​​ends into the hugger and the curved edges will seal snugly, minimizing mess and preserving freshness. Available in five sizes to fit everything from bananas to onions, it’s made of silicone so it’s flexible, BPA-free, reusable, and dishwasher safe. Can also be used to cover cans, cups, and bottles.

Scrub Daddy sponge set of 3

Did you know that scraping melted cheese off a plate can damage your sponge? That doesn’t happen with Scrub Daddy, which is one of the many reasons I stopped using all other options. Made from a special polymer foam that leaves no residue and resists odors when rinsed off. It also softens in hot water and hardens in cold water, making it suitable for all types of work. Last but not least, the eyes serve as gripping fingers and the mouth is perfect for washing dishes. Use one color for washing dishes and another color for cleaning.

HIC Kitchen 2-in-1 Mixn Masher Potato Masher

I use this two-in-one tool all the time for things like mashed potatoes, applesauce, and guacamole. The uniquely shaped head allows you to coarsely chop or finely chop ingredients while mixing them at the same time. Also, since it is made of stainless steel, it is rust resistant and extremely durable. (I bought it years ago and it’s still like new.)

hamilton beach portable blender

I start every morning with a protein shake. Rather than lugging a full-sized blender out of the cabinet, a portable blender makes the process quick and easy. It holds 14 ounces in a blending jar and converts into a to-go cup with a sip lid. The 300-watt motor and stainless steel blades are powerful enough to crush ice and fruit purees, and the cup and lid are dishwasher safe for easy cleaning. Choose from 7 color options.

HyperChiller HC2M Iced Coffee Cooler

I like hot coffee, but my boyfriend likes cold coffee. Instead of making two separate batches, pour the cups into the HyperChiller and store in the freezer. The stainless steel chamber is surrounded by ice on all sides, which cools the coffee quickly without diluting it. In less than a minute, it’s freezing cold. It can also chill iced tea, juice, cocktails, and wine and comes in five color options.

AmazonBasics Silicone Baking Mat 2 Pack

These silicone baking mats replace parchment paper because they’re nonstick, oven safe up to 480°F, and heat evenly for golden-brown cookies. The circular guidelines are also useful when making macarons and frozen desserts. Easily cleaned with soap and water, it can also be used to protect trays when roasting meats and vegetables.
