5 Nifty Kitchen Gadgets For Your New Home

By now, we’re all familiar with the ebb and flow of kitchen gadgets over the years—some more helpful than others. Here, we’ve compiled the top five gadgets we believe will stay on the counter and won’t end up hidden away in a cupboard!

Air Fryers

This will come as no surprise. The simple yet versatile air fryer has become a kitchen staple in the 2020s. With rising energy prices, the appeal of a device that cooks food quickly while using less power than an oven is hard to beat. But how do air fryers work?

An air fryer is essentially a compact convection oven. It uses circulated hot air to cook food evenly, and its small chamber size enables speedy cooking. Dual-chamber air fryers even allow you to cook two types of food simultaneously, with options like Ninja models allowing you to sync or set different cook times for each chamber.

This gadget is perfect when you need to prepare a separate meal for the kids or if you just want to whip up something fast without preheating your full oven. Its compact design means it can sit on a kitchen counter with ease.

Yes, blenders aren’t exactly new. However, recent innovations have opened up a whole new world of possibilities.

Standard countertop blenders with a glass or plastic jug are familiar to most, but now there are many options to explore. Hand blenders with attachments can double as mixers, featuring whisks and various blades for different textures. Some models are even built directly into bottles, ideal for smoothies! Products like Nutribullet have revolutionised how we make smoothies, sauces, and more—all in one handheld device.

Stand Mixers

Stand mixers are the dream appliance for home bakers and none more iconic than the Smeg stand mixer. Long celebrated for its classic design and versatility, it’s much more than a cake-baking tool. With the right attachments, you can use your stand mixer to make ice cream, pasta, and bread, as well as to grate, grind, and slice—simply set it going and step back!

Stand mixers have become a fashionable accessory for the kitchen, available in a variety of sizes and colours to complement your décor.

Coffee lovers rejoice! The range of coffee machines available today means there’s something for everyone.

If you’re short on time, a pod coffee machine could be ideal—delivering smooth coffee in under a minute. These are great for busy mornings, offering easy cleaning, consistency, and little maintenance. Thanks to their popularity, coffee brands from Starbucks to Costa have developed compatible pods; some even offer hot chocolate options.

For those looking for a true barista experience at home, a bean-to-cup machine is ideal. These machines work with either whole beans or grounds, and you can find both in most supermarkets. Equipped with a steam arm, you can froth milk yourself for a cosy cappuccino or a creamy hot chocolate.
