Smart appliances and gadgets for the kitchen: the most useful assistants for housewives. Useful kitchen tools Necessary and convenient kitchen tools
The frequency of appearance of modern, mega-progressive, technological innovations for the home is truly impressive. Useful gadgets are actively invading our lives to make it easier, more convenient and more economical. Here are thirty “smart” and incredibly creative kitchen helpers!
The “smart” device will certainly please avid cooks, as it ensures maximum accuracy of food dosages. The compact spoon will fully replace electronic scales and cups with divisions - it can weigh absolutely any bulk ingredients and liquids, be it flour, sugar, pepper, butter or another ingredient from the recipe. The weight limit is 300 grams - considering the capacity of the spoon, this is quite an impressive figure.
Fans of the most popular snack can rejoice - special scissors for neatly cutting pizza have become available for sale. If previously a separated piece could hopelessly ruin the appearance of a ruddy dish, now nothing threatens the beauty of the delicacy: miraculously, the scissors are equipped with a triangular stand that “dives” under the dough and serves as a kind of cutting board. This way, you are left with an appetizing, even and aesthetically pleasing slice of pizza in your hands!
There is a fairly large contingent of gourmets who prefer to soak cookies in their favorite drink - hot chocolate, coffee, tea or milk. But here’s the problem: during the dipping process, the flour product can slip out of your hands, and besides, not everyone likes to get dirty. The Oreo Dunking Spoon was invented specifically for this purpose. A convenient unit allows you to deftly pick up double cookies with filling so that you can carefully lower them into a mug and then taste them with pleasure.
Having such a dispenser at hand, you can cut the butter into thin pieces without using a knife. The device has a very clever design, which allows you to select the desired proportions of the product dispensed: after the optimal weight of the oil is set, it is crushed into even, elegant slices of the required size. The remaining product is safely stored inside the dispenser “until required” - of course, provided that the mechanism is placed in the refrigerator.
Each of us has our own preferences in the temperature of the drink we drink, but calculating the temperature parameters is not at all easy - some people get burned, while others, on the contrary, have to resort to additional heating. But the difficulties do not end there, because overdoing the process of “reanimating” the liquid is as easy as shelling pears. In the end, the epic of bringing the temperature to perfection develops into a tedious and annoying process.
Meanwhile, a valuable find has already appeared on the market just for such cases. The “Tank up mug” ceramic mug is equipped with a temperature sensor and automatically transmits the current temperature to its surface. By owning such a gadget, you will not only protect yourself from the prospect of getting burned, but you will also be able to track the rise or fall of degrees, as they say, online.
This device is designed to maintain a spectacular and appetizing consistency of beer. If you like to contemplate lush white foam, the “smart” device will create it without any difficulty. In appearance, the gadget is a small stand: you just need to place the glass and press the corresponding button. In a matter of seconds, the drink will be covered with a beautiful, fragrant “cap”. And all this is thanks to invisible ultrasound waves, which are absolutely safe for the human body.
7. Lemon spray
An unusual spray bottle will help you easily extract juice from any citrus: it is inserted directly into the pulp of the fruit. During use, the device retains all vitamins and protects the extracted liquid from harmful oxidation (the body of the gadget is made of safe food-grade plastic). The sprayer is equipped with a special mini-filter, so the purified juice can be immediately delivered “as intended” - directly to food or drinks during serving. The developers have added a small stand to the spray, so it can be conveniently placed on the table during a meal.
It's no secret that when cutting food, a lot of unnecessary waste is generated. To keep them out of the way, you have to periodically take time to dispose of them. To avoid such a routine, enterprising manufacturers have released a special model of cutting board: it has a special slot into which husks, peels and other unnecessary items are discarded. All these production surpluses end up in a drawer, which is later pulled out and emptied without any hassle. On the other hand, the tray can become a “shelter” for already chopped vegetables - this is also very convenient.
9. Portable USB mug warmer
Distracted by other things, many of us often forget about cooling tea or coffee. To maintain the pleasant warmth of the drink, a miniature heating pad was invented: it connects to the computer via a USB port, thereby freeing its owner from the need to return to the kitchen. The wonderful device is presented in the form of a delicious cookie and is capable of raising the temperature to fifty degrees. The duration of operation of the device is not limited - you can retain heat for as long as you want.
As a rule, a bucket with household waste has to be hidden in the depths of the kitchen cabinet: in addition to the fact that it looks unaesthetic, the accumulated garbage creates an unpleasant “smell”. To solve this pressing problem, a waste bin with a cooling function was developed. The essence of its work comes down to the following: low temperature easily repels odor by suppressing the activity of bacteria (UV lamps are built into the device to combat microorganisms). It is worth emphasizing that the gadget is not difficult to clean.
The promising new product has not yet entered the market, but in the near future it threatens to make a real splash.
11. Float for a pan
Swirling in the whirlpool of everyday worries, housewives often forget that boiling water or broth in a saucepan is waiting for them on the stove. Of course, upon returning to the kitchen, even more hassle is added - sooner or later the liquid naturally splashes out and shamelessly stains the equipment.
Sincerely sympathizing with the ever-busy cooks, manufacturers of practical devices have developed a product called “BoilBuoy”. In fact, this is the most ordinary float, placed directly in the pan: in the process of heating the contents, it calmly drifts on the surface, and when the liquid composition boils, it emits a piercing “scream”. The inhabitants of the house will certainly not be able to ignore such an expressive and persistent sound!
A portable microwave oven is an extremely successful invention for those who do not want to part with their “nurse” even while traveling. Along with a compact iron, kettle, refrigerator or TV, this unit can be taken with you on business trips or on a country picnic.
Thanks to its rather modest dimensions, the portable stove does not take up much space in the car. The equipment is usually powered by an adapter or battery; some models provide a connection via a USB port.
13. Pan for cooking barbecue
Kabob Maker cookware is ready to take on such a responsible process as preparing juicy kebab. However, the talents of the pan do not end there: it is capable of bringing almost any stewed, boiled and baked types of food to the table, or simply heating up ready-made food.
The kitchen assistant is made of heat-resistant plastic, so you can safely put it in the oven or microwave (where, in fact, the entire culinary process takes place). There are special “slits” on the sides of the container into which wooden skewers are inserted. An important advantage of this kebab technology is the ability to do without adding fat, because the steam literally hangs under the lid of the dish.
There are times when you need to urgently defrost semi-finished products or meat, but there is sorely not enough time for slow thawing. A special tray for quickly defrosting food will help save the situation. The metal device does not require connection to an electrical outlet and does not require batteries at all: just place the freezer on the surface and wait for the result.
An additional “bonus” of this useful device is longitudinal grooves that hold liquid within the tray. The kitchen table will remain clean and tidy!
15. Artistic pens
Lovers of creative work now have another reason to rejoice. The Candy Craft Chocolate Pen creates three-dimensional edible masterpieces like a 3D printer. The figures are made from liquid chocolate - white, milk, dark or bitter, but if you add food coloring to it, the sweet decorations will turn out even more colorful.
16. Freshness keeper for greens
If fresh herbs often “settle” in your kitchen, it makes sense to think about purchasing “Herb Savor” from the Prepara company. In appearance, the container looks like a large glass flask: enclosed in it, the herbs receive a significant increase in life, because the process of their natural withering slows down much.
The manufacturer promises to extend the freshness and food safety of greens for up to three weeks. Before putting it into the flask, it must be rinsed and slightly dried; Water is poured into the container tray. After this, the container should be placed in the refrigerator (fortunately, it does not take up much space - it even fits on the door).
Caring for the device is completely easy; it can be washed in the dishwasher. Periodically you will be required to add another portion of water.
17. Bag sealer
Trouble often happens with an open bag of chips or cereal: the products quickly become saturated with moisture, losing their crispness and appetizing appearance. A pocket-sized bag sealer is ready to save you from these annoying disappointments.
There is a magnetic strip attached to the bottom of the gadget, so you can mount it somewhere on the refrigerator if desired. The mechanism of action is absolutely simple: under the pressure of the lever, a closed contact causes the wire to heat up, causing the package to melt and stick together. The packer runs on a couple of batteries, so maintenance is completely hassle-free. The products will be completely safe!
18. Jug indicating spoilage of milk
An electronic drink carafe will helpfully notify you that the product stored in it is no longer suitable for consumption.
The secret of this unique find is as follows: a PH level sensor is fixed on the inside of the jug, and a compact display displaying its “verdict” is mounted on the outer surface. If the screen shows “Fresh”, you can enjoy milk without any fear!
19. Banana syringe
The delicate tropical fruit is adored by both adults and children. But why not make its exotic taste even more original? By purchasing a syringe for stuffing bananas, you will get an excellent opportunity to pamper your loved ones with a delicious and unusually refined dessert with a variety of fillings.
A convenient rod-shaped gadget deftly and accurately removes the “core” from the fruit, thereby providing wide scope for culinary fantasies. Cream or whipped cream, liquid chocolate or yogurt, honey or syrup can be considered as filling. Undoubtedly, such a spectacular treat will be the highlight of any party!
20. Marinator for vegetables and meat
The vacuum marinator accomplishes its mission in a matter of minutes; you only need to cut and place the food in a container, as well as prepare the marinade itself. The operation of the device begins with active pumping out of air, after which vegetables, fish or meat undergo intensive mixing - each piece should be thoroughly saturated with marinade.
The time savings with this processing method are truly amazing: if under normal conditions barbecue meat is marinated all night, then with a marinator you can easily do it in 20-30 minutes (for one serving, the standard one-time cycle is only 9 minutes). It is also interesting that subsequently the products do not need to be removed from the container - they will remain fresh even if they are outside the refrigerator.
To prepare multi-layer baked goods, it is necessary to divide the base into separate cake layers as evenly and accurately as possible. To cope with this task, take the “Zenker” mold: on its side surface there are slots for a knife, so at the end you will get 7 absolutely identical “floors”, equal in thickness.
22. Knife - baking mitt
A plastic knife has been developed to match the “smart” shape, making it easier to cut and portion out ready-made confectionery masterpieces. An ergonomic device, coated with silicone and pointed on one side, deftly divides baked goods into portions and at the same time picks up a piece of dessert.
The whole process takes place without direct contact of your hands with the cake or pie, which protects you from the risk of getting dirty or accidentally crumbling the delicate delicacy.
23. “Spawn” device
Not long ago, Canadian designers set out to create a gadget that could make caviar from any available food products. The result of their meticulous work was the “Imperial Spherificator” - a kind of shaker that forms colorful eggs with different tastes and aromas (for example, coffee or Pepsi).
Meat, seafood, vegetables, fruits or berries can be used as the basis for “spherificator” caviar - they are first pureed in a blender and mixed with broth or juice. As it turns into caviar, the product is rolled into balls and “overgrown” with an edible shell of sodium alginate (a substance obtained from seaweed), and after the formed eggs are placed in water with calcium chloride (its purpose is to become a natural fixative so that the capsules hold well form). Both alginate and calcium can be found at the pharmacy, or you can order directly from the manufacturer.
24. Toffee packaging
Silicone-based elastic food film is designed to protect juicy fruits and other products from early spoilage. “Cover Blubber” easily stretches to the desired size, tightly fitting a container or individual fruit.
The reusable mode of use should be recognized as a valuable advantage of the new product, but we must remember that placing the practical film in a microwave oven, as well as putting it in the dishwasher, is strictly prohibited.
25. Grocery safe
Pathological cravings for sweets affect health in the most detrimental way. But now it becomes much easier to control the bad habits of those with a sweet tooth: just install “Kitchen Safe” in the kitchen!
The innovative plastic safe is topped with a lid with a built-in timer. Access to the products placed in this storage is limited until the expiration of a given period, therefore, even with a great desire to get to the coveted sweets or gingerbread, none of the household members will definitely be able to. The minimum period for which a block can be set is 1 minute, while the maximum limit is 10 days.
It is worth noting that the “tight” safe can significantly help not only passionate fans of desserts, but also heavy smokers or lovers of alcoholic libations. Moreover, the gadget will greatly save the family budget - you just need to hide a credit card or cash in time!
26. Spaghetti fork
All those who quickly get tired of wrapping spaghetti on a fork will certainly like a device that rolls pasta automatically. From now on, you will safely avoid the fate of dropping your fork at the most crucial moment, and greasy stains will no longer stain your clothes due to an accidental careless gesture.
This device runs on regular batteries. And, oddly enough, it is becoming increasingly popular!
27. Desk vacuum cleaner
A handheld mini vacuum cleaner will gladly free owners from the tedious task of wielding a rag, brushing away crumbs and other small waste from the kitchen countertop. In appearance, the battery-powered device resembles a large hair dryer, only it does not blow out, but rather sucks in air along with debris.
Some “cleaner” models support not only dry, but also wet cleaning, which, I must say, is very prudent. In addition to the table surface, a compact vacuum cleaner can be used to clean cabinets, drawers, various pieces of furniture, blinds and curtains (replacement attachments are usually included in the factory package).
28. Predatory claws for cutting meat
The American company Foreasy offers to make eating meat dishes as easy as possible. Her invention promises to make the meal truly unboring: holding a shredder in the shape of animal claws in his hands, the passionate eater gets the opportunity to literally tear his prey to pieces.
Of course, such a plot is clearly not lacking in entertainment value, but the process is not without a rational grain. Firstly, you won’t drop either the cutlery or the tasty morsel on the floor, and secondly, the awesome heat-resistant claws make it convenient to transfer meat from the grill directly to the dish, without any additional oven mitts.
29. Magnet for catching fat
Advocates of diets and healthy eating will certainly be impressed by the Fat Magnet, a device that removes excess fat from food. It is enough to bring this unit to this or that product, and the fat, and with them the harmful calories, will immediately begin to be attracted to the magnetic surface.
Before use, the gadget should be kept in the freezer so that the captured fat particles instantly thicken and freeze securely. You can degrease almost any dish - both liquid broths and dense side dishes. Fat magnet can be cleaned manually or in the dishwasher.
30. Tea maker
Millions of people around the world trust a special mechanism for preparing coffee - at a minimum, a coffee maker and, at a maximum, a functional coffee machine. Despite the fact that in terms of popularity tea is not at all close to the coffee drink, we are somehow not used to fiddling with it, although we know that observing the ritual could significantly improve the taste.
Fortunately, one ambitious American company has undertaken to eliminate this blatant tea injustice. In the near future, it will launch mass production of so-called tea makers under the name “Teforia”: the process of their work boils down to the fact that loose tea leaves, placed in a special flask, are subjected to vigorous boiling, and then filtered and poured into mugs.
It would seem that the matter is completely simple, but the developers promise to include a whole package of options - regulation of brewing strength, control of heating temperature, changing the cooking / pouring speed, as well as the ability to automatically add sugar. Of course, all these parameters will have a beneficial effect on the taste of the drink.
The army of functional home assistants is constantly growing. Perhaps one day you will want to “register” a couple of technological gadgets in your own kitchen?
There are always a lot of different devices in the kitchen that help realize the most daring ideas. While not all of them are useful, there are plenty of interesting and unusual items that can help keep your kitchen clean and make some tasks easier.

Have you noticed that many brands that produce dressings and sauces for salads and main dishes make the neck of their bottles too wide, so that several times more content is poured into the plate than you would like. To avoid this, use a special attachment that will help you control the amount of refill, that is, it will serve as a kind of dispenser. This is especially necessary for those who monitor the caloric content of their food.

With them, kitchen chores turn into a fun game - don’t deny yourself this pleasure!
A lot of cute and useful gadgets that make household chores easier have already been invented. Some can be purchased at the store, others can be made with your own hands. Let's look at the most interesting and necessary kitchen appliances, and at the same time share some ideas with you. Perhaps you will take some of this into account.
What do manufacturers offer...
Tablet holder
No matter where you put the TV in the kitchen, you still can’t see what’s happening on the screen all the time. But on the tablet you can turn on the video recipe you like and hang it, for example, above. This is where a convenient adjustable holder comes in handy - a simple mechanical device that can be easily installed anywhere in the kitchen.
Organizer stand for peeling potatoes
An excellent device for those who never get used to peeling potatoes while sitting in the kitchen. This is the most ordinary tray, but of a very unusual shape. You lay him on your lap - and here in front of you is everything you need to organize this boring work:
- right at hand there is a recess for cleaning;
- in front there is a “bucket” for tubers;
- on the right and left there are additional recesses where you can put potatoes;
- in the center there is a flat surface for cutting.
But in the kitchen you will have to find a place to store such a voluminous device.
Cutting board with electronic scales
This kitchen appliance has a durable coating that cannot be damaged with a knife. But after slicing, it’s easy to move the shredded products into the highlighted circle to determine their weight. An excellent device for those who are on a diet or are not used to preparing complex dishes by eye.
As an everyday option, you can use a spoon with scales in the kitchen. The display on the handle of the device will immediately highlight the exact number as soon as you scoop up salt, sugar or other spices.
Drink cooler
The electronic device is designed for one bottle, but can work both from a kitchen outlet and from a built-in battery. Unlike a primitive ice bucket, this device cools wine and drinks in minutes to the correct temperature set from the control panel.
Another option, more compact and energy-independent, was called Corkcicle, that is, “cork icicle”. A long transparent test tube with liquid inside and a real wine cork at the end just sits in the freezer in your kitchen. And as soon as you need to cool the wine, just insert the “icicle” into the neck of the uncorked bottle for a few minutes.
Pot-combine
Very useful kitchen gadgets come from combinations of household appliances. This happened in this case too: the combine-chopper was simply combined in one housing with a multi-cooker. All that remains is to clean the necessary products with your own hands, throw them inside and select a program - and the smart device will cut and cook them itself.
Pasta machine with dumpling attachment
Previously, such a device in the kitchen could only be used to roll out dough or cut pasta. And with the new attachment and filling dispenser, you can prepare dozens of neat ravioli in just a few minutes. A lot of square dumplings come out of the device at once, so it’s better to put some of them in the freezer.
Containers with dispenser
An improved version of measuring cups in the kitchen, they are used for precise dosing of batter poured into muffin tins, as well as when baking pancakes. The shutter at the bottom of this device opens by simply pressing the double handle, and a scale on the transparent walls allows you to control the volume of dough flowing out.
Electric spaghetti fork
Funny devices are most popular with children, so they come in bright and cheerful designs. The principle of operation of the device is the same as that of an electric toothbrush, only there is a regular plug at the end. When you press the button, it begins to rotate, carefully winding long spaghetti.
... and what you can do yourself
Kitchen appliances not only make the work of housewives easier, but also decorate the interior. And what can give it more comfort and charm than useful hand-made accessories?
Cutlery organizer
The first kitchen devices that a housewife decides to make with her own hands are organizer stands for storing forks, spoons and other small utensils. You can assemble a useful decoration from scrap materials, and after decorating it will acquire an original appearance and transform the interior. To create this device, tin cans or cut plastic bottles, which are bolted together or glued together, are suitable. The decor can be anything at all - from painting and painting to covering it with fabric and twine (depending on the style of the kitchen itself).
Invisible magnet
It is convenient to store knives on a wall magnet - here they do not become dull, are always in sight, and can be quickly picked up and returned to their place. And so that the metal strip does not spoil the interior of, say, a classic kitchen, you can make a simple device with your own hands. To do this, you need to drill round recesses on the back side of a small board with a crown and glue magnets of a suitable size inside. From the outside, such a board in the kitchen will look like natural wood, and will work no worse than standard magnetic strips, securely holding sharp utensils.
Sometimes there is not enough space even for such small devices in a cramped kitchen. If you can’t fit spices on the shelf, you can hang them from below. To make such a storage system yourself, you will need glass baby food jars or small containers with screw-on tin lids. These are the ones that need to be bolted to the bottom. Then pour the spices into the jars and screw each one into place.
Storing packages in the kitchen
A good housewife always has a supply of plastic bags: for freezing, sandwiches or garbage. To make storing and retrieving them more convenient, use a cardboard tissue box. And to save space, the simplest device can be mounted on the inside of the door of one of the kitchen cabinets.
Drainer
This original device can be made from sanded bars or long cylindrical blanks, but it’s easier to use several wooden coat hangers. The hooks are unscrewed from the hangers, and the bodies are connected with screws crosswise so that the “legs” are at the bottom and the “horns” point upward.
Four or five such pairs are assembled into a single structure using slats about 60 cm long. They will serve as limiters and will securely hold the plates inserted between the hangers of your device. You can hang mugs and glasses on the “horns” of a homemade drying rack.
Hooks in the kitchen
Convenient and funny DIY hooks for potholders, aprons and towels can be made from forks by simply bending their handles. It is also better to clamp the teeth of the instruments so as not to accidentally get hurt. This hook is attached to the kitchen wall with a simple self-tapping screw through a hole drilled in the metal. True, aluminum forks are the easiest to process, but they are not able to support a lot of weight. So you shouldn’t hang everything on one hook - make several similar devices for your kitchen at once.
Bags of vegetables
The original method is much more convenient than bunches of garlic or mushrooms hanging on nails. These are cross-cut canvas bags with drawstrings at the top and bottom, which can be hung on hooks by the back loop. Potatoes, onions and the same garlic are placed on top, and during cooking they are easily removed from the lower “sleeve”, you just have to undo the lace.
Narrow wardrobe
Probably the most useful gadget you can imagine in a cramped kitchen. When there is only 10-15 cm of free space between the refrigerator and the adjacent cabinet, it must certainly be used for its intended purpose. To do this, you can make a frame from ordinary boards of slightly smaller width, equip it with shelves and side stops on the inside, and wheels on the bottom. After this, all that remains is to cover the façade to match the color of the surrounding objects and screw on a convenient handle - the roll-out shelf for jars and bottles is ready.
