Cooking is not on my list of favorite things to do, but my son and I do love home-cooked meals, so I cook (as if I have a $u# to my head), but seriously and most importantly, I do it because it's a healthier option and it gives me peace of mind.
But the thing is, I don't think anyone has hours to spend in the kitchen, especially if you're juggling work, family, and trying to keep up with everything else. All that's going on can make cooking feel like a chore.
But what can change things around and help make cooking so much easier and less time-consuming is having good kitchen gadgets! Having the right kitchen gadgets can help cut down prep time and make cooking easier.
With that said, I'm excited to share with you the best kitchen gadgets that are time-saving and that people swear by. So whether you're whipping up a quick dinner or the traditional Sunday roasts, these gadgets can help you spend less time prepping and more time eating!
What Kitchen Gadgets Can Do For You
Kitchen gadgets are not just shiny toys you have in the kitchen but they solve real problems.
On those nights when you're rushing to get dinner on the table, a good kitchen gadget can shave minutes (or even hours) off your routine. They chop, mix, and clean up faster than you can by hand.
Good kitchen gadgets also make cooking less intimidating. You don't have to be a chef to use them. They're simple, practical, and turn "I don't have time" into "I can do this." They turn cooking into something you can handle even on your busiest days!
15 Kitchen Gadgets In 2025 That'll Save You Time
This thing is a beast for chopping veggies fast. You toss in onions, peppers, or whatever, push the lid down, and it dices everything into perfect little squares in one go! It's got a 4.9-star rating on Amazon because it's quick, sturdy and the blades stay sharp. It does come with a catch tray to keep your counter clean, and the parts pop apart for easy washing. If you're into quick meal prep tools, this one's a game-changer.
You've probably seen this all-in-one workhorse wonder before. It's a pressure cooker, slow cooker, steamer, rice cooker, food warmer, and sterilizer all rolled into one. It's so loved by many because it just slashes cooking time. Think cooking rice in 10 minutes or a stew you can whip up in 30. You could possibly make a chicken curry before you finish setting the table! The controls are pretty straightforward, and it has presets that take all the guesswork out of it. This instant pot truly is a kitchen gadget must-have if you want dinner fast without hovering over the stove.
Eggs are the go-to breakfast for many of us, but boiling them the old way takes forever, and you'll have to babysit the stove. This little genius of a kitchen gadget cooks eggs in six minutes, and you can use it to have your eggs hard-boiled, poached, or even scrambled. You only need to add water, set your eggs, and walk away. The buzzer tells you when they're done, and cleaning up is as easy as just a rinse. For those busy mornings, it's one of those kitchen gadgets you'll be grateful for.
This slicer is like having an extra pair of hands. It shreds, grates, and slices with adjustable blades. I shredded carrots and cabbage for a coleslaw in under two minutes—no knife skills needed. It comes with a container to catch everything, so no mess, and the blades can be kept safely. If you’re prepping big batches or just hate chopping (like me!), this is one of the best kitchen gadgets you can own.
Mixing by hand just isn't a workout I need. This mixer is not only light, but it's powerful. It's got seven speeds, so you can go slow for things like eggs or fast for cream. What I like about it is that it's cordless! It doesn't tie you to an outlet, so you could literally be mixing while watching Netflix if you wanted to. Not only that, for a cordless gadget, the battery does last through multiple recipes, and it charges really quickly. Whether you're using it for baking or blending, it's a time-saving kitchen tool that feels like a treat to use.
Avocados are yum, and we use them in so many things, but they can be a pain to prep. This small tool splits, pits, and slices them in mere seconds. It's not only efficient, but it's safe as well. The pitter grabs the seed without slipping, and the slicer scoops out the avocado in neat pieces, no mushy mess here. It's just one of those kitchen utensils that's worth every penny.
Leftovers can pile up, but this tray can easily freeze them in perfect portions, 1-cup or 2-cup blocks. It's great for meal prep, you can just pop them out like ice cubes, ready to be reheated. The silicone material is sturdy and the lid helps keep freezer burn away. You can use it to freeze soups, sauces, curry, lasagna, literally anything and everything you want to save for later. Your freezer will look aesthetically pleasing too, no more mismatched tupperware!
If you cook with garlic a lot, this is one of the best kitchen gadgets. Just skip the knife and press directly into your pan. This press crushes cloves in one squeeze, and it really gets the whole clove. It just takes away all the mincing you'd have to do, it's so easy! It also comes with a silicone peeler which is a game-changer. Just pop the cloves in the sleeve and roll for a skinless garlic clove.
This skillet is so versatile. It can fry, saute, or even bake in, and it's big enough for family meals. You can use it for anything you'd throw in a frying pan. It's non-stick, heats up quickly and evenly, and the skillet is the easiest to clean. Storage is simple as well because all you need to do is fold the base handles and store them inside the pan together with the cord. It doesn't take much cabinet space at all. If you need something to cook with for a crowd, this one's a solid option.
Chopping anything, nuts, herbs, onions, or anything by hand can take time you don't have. This mini-processor, blitzes anything in seconds. No knife, no fuss. The blades are sharp, and it's easy to clean, plus it's small enough to stash in a drawer. One of those straightforward, easy cooking gadgets that makes you feel like a pro, while making cooking easier.
This air fryer is a multitasker with two baskets, so you can literally cook two things at once. This has an 8-quart capacity with six functions: air fry, roast, broil, bake, reheat, and dehydrate. If you have fries in one basket and chicken in the other, you can use its "Smart Finish" button to sync them to be ready together, which is really welcoming when you're putting your meal together. The non-stick baskets make cleaning easy and are big enough for family meals. It's one of the top kitchen gadgets for fast, healthy cooking with zero fuss.
