Top 10 Kitchen Gadgets Under $25
1. OXO Good Grips 3-in-1 Avocado Tool
This 3-in-1 Avocado tool is a game changer if you enjoy eating avocados. This tool cuts, pits, and slices the avocado for the perfect topping to a salad, chicken breast, or avocado toast! As someone who adds avocado to my meals frequently, this OXO Good Grips 3 in 1 Avocado Tool saves me tons of time cutting and prepping avocado for meals AND cleanup is as easy as tossing it in the dishwasher.
2. Clip-On Strainer
If you are anything like me and hate washing dishes, THIS STRAINER IS FOR YOU! I frequently say that this is one of my all-time favorite kitchen inventions (not just for under $25). This easy to use, clip-on strainer clips on to the side of any bowl, pot, or pan to create a seamless straining experience. It is adjustable so it will fit just about any size bowl you have. With no large straining bowl to clean afterwards, just toss this strainer into the dishwasher and move on with your day.
3. OXO Measuring Cups
I have always been a fan of the OXO Good Grips products, especially kitchen gadgets. They have a great line of products and so many great options to choose from! I’ve used many different brands and styles of measuring cups over the years, but these OXO measuring cups will be my go to from now on. The sturdy stainless steel design with non-slip grip handles is very high quality and durable. The handles are magnetized which creates a clean and neat look when stored in a cabinet or drawer. They are also dishwasher safe which is a huge plus in my house! OXO also sells a matching set of measuring spoons that I love just as much!
4. Zulay Handheld Milk Frother
We have all seen these wonderful handheld milk frothers on social media, but I just need to reiterate how amazing this one really is! I have had mine for over 4 years now and still use it daily. These are most commonly used for frothing milk to add to your favorite coffee beverage, but I use mine for so much more. I use mine for mixing protein drinks, iced coffee concentrate, milk frothing, iced tea, pre-workout, daily greens superfoods, Mio mixers, and really anything liquid that might need a quick stir! I highly recommend having one of these Zulay Milk Frothers on hand.
5. AIEVE Cord Organizer
Tired of long cords cluttering up your kitchen counters? These cord organizers keep the kitchen appliance cords wrapped up, organized, and out of the way for a clean look all the time! They are made of high-quality, durable silicone with an adhesive strip on the back for easy application. Perfect for air fryers, toasters, and stand mixers.
6. Microwave Popcorn Maker
This popcorn popper is the perfect alternative to the store bought, bagged popcorn that can be filled with chemicals. Just add your favorite popcorn kernels and toss in the microwave for a healthy popcorn snack in a matter of minutes! You can add butter or flavor powder if you like flavored or movie style popcorn. It’s dishwasher safe and so easy to clean!
7. Kitchen Aid Shears
These all-purposes kitchen shears are a must have in every kitchen! I actually have multiple scattered throughout my kitchen that I use for different things. The amazing blades on these scissors provide a superior cutting experience whether you’re cutting food, cardboard, or anything in between. I’ve had these in my kitchen for years, and the blades are still sharp as ever! They come with a blade cover & are dishwasher safe.
8. Taco Holders
These taco holders make taco night a breeze! Made of stainless steel, you can put them in the oven, on the grill, and of course they are dishwasher safe (my favorite)! These help you create a perfect taco while saving room on your plate for sides. Great for kids who want to make and eat their own tacos as well!
9. Over-The-Sink Drying Rack
These over the sink drying racks are wonderful! I use mine every single day when washing dishes or rinsing fruit, and I can’t imagine not having one now. They come in many different sizes, so you can get one that will fit your unique sink size. It saves space and the clutter of drying dishes on your countertop while drying directly into the sink!
10. Guacamole Keeper
If you or someone in your family enjoys eating guacamole, this is an absolute MUST. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve made guacamole just to throw half of it in the trash the next day due to browning. It holds about 4-5 avocados worth of guac and keeps it fresh in the fridge for a week!
