No room in your house has more available gizmos and tech gadgets that claim to make your life easier than the kitchen. Seriously, there’s a kitchen tool for ev-er-ee-thing these days. Whether you love working in the kitchen or would rather order DoorDash every night of the week if it meant you never had to cook again, there’s something out there that promises to indulge your culinary laziness.
We’ve seen and tested many of them by now. From coring pineapples to shelling walnuts to babysitting your steak’s internal temperature to automatically stirring your pasta sauce, these cool kitchen gadgets almost make it possible to cook without actually cooking. It’s the closest we’ve ever been to having our own personal robot chefs (and that day is coming very, very soon). But how many of these kitchen gadgets are actually worth buying?
Every year, our team spends countless hours researching, testing, and comparing the best kitchen gadgets, tools, and appliances so you don’t have to. Most of them aren’t worth the spend, but we take note of those that genuinely save us time and effort in the kitchen. From clever safety cutters to corded hand blenders to steam-powered, Japanese-inspired toaster ovens, these are our picks for the coolest kitchen gadgets of 2024.
