ALLLLLL of them I am addicted to small kitchen appliances. If they make it’s in one of my cabinets. But my ace wasn’t on the list. I am a Crock Pot savant. You name it, I can cook it in a Crock Pot, my slow cooker lasagna rolls are legendary.

I love my InstaPot. It does everything and I got the special top to make it an air fryer.

VitaMix Blender

Breville Tabletop Convection Oven


I used to work at Williams Sonoma years ago so I know my stuff.

If you are serious about smoothies, mixed drinks, etc invest in a VitaMix, its worth the expense and hell I make ice cream and soup in mine.

I love my small appliances but these are my favorites.

I use a Bunn instead of a Keurig because its so versatile.

I use my pressure cooker a couple of times per week. I also use a steamer often. I don’t like microwaves so I use the steamer for vegetables and when I need to heat/reheat food without it drying out. I eat a lot of legumes, hard grains and soup so the pressure cooker is a necessity.

I love small kitchen appliances, but i have been informed that i better not bring ONE MORE HOME :unsure:(i informed myself :ROFLMAO:)

i am interested in a convection type oven though.

Like an air fryer, but hotter and faster (if that even exists)

My ninja foodi!!

It’s an air fryer, pressure cooker, broiler, oven, slow cooker, dehydrator, etc.

I want that so bad. Waiting for it to go under 100. I saw it for 107 at kohls with a 40 percent off coupon, but I think it can go lower. I'm in no rush.

I love my air fryer. Pressure cooker/slow cooker is not really necessary imo because I can cook it on the stove with the top on the pot and get the same results. It's not life changing, but that air fryer is magical.

I'm grabbing the self-cleaning blender and if there are a few more seconds left before the backdraft, my steamer/multicooker.

Cuisinart Chef’s countertop convection/ toaster oven. Use it for almost everything. I barely use my oven and I have had it for several years. Love the pre-programmed settings.

I voted for air fryer but, I second the slow cooker. It's a humble tool with endless uses.

That sounds good. I bought a Instant Pot but have yet to use it.

I love my kitchen gadgets and utensils, I enjoy cooking so I like to make sure I have whatever I need.

My food processor is my FWB and my crock pot is my best friend.

Bruh, the only thing I have out of this list is a blender so I guess that?e2

I mean, I wouldn't be able to make my smoothies any other way--and I practically make them every morning.

Either that or my rice cooker--Which I equally love and if I had access to it I would use it almost daily, but I can't really say that because I left it up in a storage room in my college town and have been traditional cooking ever since.

I want to jump on the bandwagon and get an airfryer, but I don't eat much fried foods anyway? The only thing I would probably prepare in it is like fish and chicken.

I protest that this poll does not have a mini waffle maker. I'm very serious when I say I can't live without mine.

you can cook damn near anything in an air fryer, especially if you get the one with different functions like, bake, broil, reheat...

I make grilled cheese, veggies, toast, my mom made an entire pork roast in her's....

needless to say, my vote is for my air fryer, with my nespresso or my vitamix being a close second.
