25 Kitchen Gadgets That Have Reviewers Raving About Their Handiness

I'm going to put this in the microwave at work and maybe she'll scare my colleagues into cleaning up their mess

We have this exact model at home, it's called "Señora Enfadada"/"Sciura Incacchiata"... we are a bilingual home ;)

I love that she looks like a playskool toy!

A Pyrex bowl, a coffee cup, or even a heavy glass with water will do the job. Easy to wipe out, and the items are already in your cabinet so you don't have to add to the rampant environmental degradation. If you want to spend your money on a plastic, get one of those microwave covers that spare the mess in the first place. |||| Okay, next day and I've got to edit this. Just now, I was telling my neighbor about this stupid post and how a cup of water is just as good for free. She goes into her kitchen, grabs something, and turns around: This? Is this what you're talking about? I died. I literally slid down the wall in hysterics. Yep, that's exactly what I'm talking about.

So….it’s replacing a glass of water that does the same thing? Please stop buying things like this!

Trust me on this: don't get silicone or plastic spongeholders. Get metal ones (like stainless steel). Nasty black/green mold/mildew gunk WILL grow on the silicone and plastic ones, no matter how dry you try to keep them. Because silicone is permeable, the mildew will actually permeate the material and stain it (and make it look constantly mildewy/moldy.) My family has owned a housecleaning service for over 30 years. Get a stainless steel holder/organizer, and if it attaches with suction cups, remember to remove the suction cups periodically and clean them too, as they're permeable as well XD

Just don't use sponges at all. They are disgusting. Use dishrags and change them every day, not every month, or never, like some folks do.

I've always used the ends from a loaf of bread.

I just use apple skins..

Damp paper towel or bread loaf ends work well.

You can do this with anything made of unglazed terra cotta.

Who has ever microwaved sugar?!

I mean, if you fold the two top corners in (like making a paper airplane), then double fold the result downwards, and then use a clip to keep it shut, you get the same result and.. oh look! I didn't have to buy anything extra! 😲

We have something similar, it's amazing. We originally bought it just to use it on trips, but it's become part of our every day life.

wooden clothespins, You can get 100 of them at walmart for a couple of dollars.

I use Klippets - plastic cups that come in many sizes. Absolutely brilliant.

I can't tell what this is.

I have one and it's great for getting the last bit of peanut butter, jelly, mayo, etc. out of the jar.

I thought the blue spatula's were only to be used in the toilet.

The join between the two different coloured sections looks like a fabulous place for bacteria, and really hard place to clean.

Oh, there you are Perry!

Bought a knock off version of this fr Amazon, was one of my best kitchen purchases ever. Had a wrist injury on my dominant hand that left it immobilized close to a year, I couldnt twist a doorknob to open a door. This thing got me thru so much frustration and works very well. My wrist is better now and my husband and I still use it all the time, never went back to manual.

I had to buy one recently as for years now where I live all cans come with ring pulls and then I bought a tin of corned Beef which had lost it's key

Love mine, use daily, batteries last a long time…very happy with it!

If I need to use a can opener I just use a manual one.

Immediately exploded taking off my hand and left breast

Love this

Waste of money

Totally a waste of money. You still must mix your batter, then you must fill this, and even if you can squirt the batter out well, it often doesn’t all come out. Then you must take it apart and clean it. Unless you are making special occasion pancakes that require a thin stream to use a ladle, or a pitcher youi’ve mixed this batter in, and a scraper to get all the batter out.

kind of a waste of money when there are left over containers such as a creamer bottle or ketchup bottle that will do the same thing.

Is this really better than a bowl and a big spoon?

i can't imagine trying to wash this

Depending on the size of the bag, just use cups, jugs or whatever you have in your kitchen, who needs yet more bits of plastic.

This would be awesome for my Jerky marinade!
