Kitchen Gadgets! We have way too many!  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 93/100. bwrattybaby (5226) 3 years ago

Maybe I am crazy LOL!!! I woke up this morning and thought to myself how many kitchen gadgets does a person need? We have 2 blenders one we had and a friend gave us another one. She didn't know we had one already. We have 2 food processors a small one I use to cut up onions and peppers. Stuff for the homemade hot sauce we make during the summer months. And a large one I don't use it much it is for making hash browns. We have 3 fat daddy's deep fryers, and a different kind of deep fryer it is great for frying up chicken in a hurry. We have only one crock pot but I would like to get a better one of them. We have a regular coffee pot and an espresso coffee pot. A microwave and a 4 slice toaster. Okay this is all our gadgets the point of this discussion is that we have no counter space for anything that we need to use daily! Not a place to put down a single plate, coffee cup, etc. Now this is going to sound nuts but we don't have cabinet space either it is full of other cooking tools....LOL.
My question to you my dear friends is where do you put all the stuff when your not using it? Do you have many kitchen gadgets? What do you do with it when you got company? Do you just leave it out on the counter? We do no place to put anything! Really!

myLot reputation of 93/100. bwrattybaby (5226)  3 years ago

I could live without all this stuff but it sure makes cooking things I like to cook. Oh I didn't mention I also have a stand up blender on the counter and one under the counter. I also have a bread machine it lives on top of the fridge.....LOL Thanks I guess I am not the only person that likes this stuff....LOL

We did not have that many. The extra ones we were able to put in cabinets. Stuff we could not use we had to put in a storage building.

I have tons of cooking gadgets. I have a Indoor/outdoor electric grill,I have 4 grills 2 George Foreman and two Kitchen aid grills. I have 1 crock pot,1 roaster,1 toaster oven, 2 toasters, 1 food processor. 2 deep dryers(one is smaller) 2 can openers, 2 mixers,(one large one that is a Kitchen aid)2 coffee pots,2 electric skillet,1 electric pizza pan,1 electric presto cooker,waffle iron, I have enough space for them to be off my counters except for the coffee pot and can opener. Maybe if you aren't using them all that you have multiples things of give one to someone who might need it.


myLot reputation of 93/100. bwrattybaby (5226)  3 years ago

I have a lot of gadgets but it makes things easier for me anyway. Heck I forgot the electric skillet and the George foreman grill. I would love to have a waffle machine but just no space to spare. I would give stuff I don't use to someone but don't know anyone that needs them. Thanks Mtdewgurl. I thought I was about nuts for having all that stuff.....LOL


myLot reputation of 99/100. mtdewgurl74 (11320)   ranked 505 out of 32,950 in life  3 years ago

Anything that makes life easier I am all for. Doesn't make us nuts at all but smart since we can have more time to spend on other things we enjoy since using our gadgets take half the time to use and make things then using it the conventional way.thumbupthumbupthumbup

We have a Kitchenaid mixmaster, a large wok, a breadmaker, a crockpot, a waffle iron, and a George Formant Grill plus a second hand blender. The breadmaker and George Forman Grill does not work. They are in the cupboard as well as the waffle iron that I do not use since I am slightly diabetic and the crockpot is in the cupboard as well because I am married to a man who thinks that everything has to be kept out of site and the counters clean.
But I kept the Kitchen Aid and Wok out because if we suddenly get company I will need it. I do not have enough kitchen gadgets, but the wrong kind. I did not need the grill or rather I could have gotten a store one instead of a celebrity type and I would rather have gotten a Cuisinart then a blender.
Oh when company comes, we do all right.


myLot reputation of 99/100. mtdewgurl74 (11320)   ranked 505 out of 32,950 in life  3 years ago

I totally forgot my electric Wok...I use it as a cooker since it works great that way.. I also have a Presto cooker that I use as well. I would love a bread maker and a Blender again but when I had it before I didn't use it except for a few times a year. My husband thinks the only thing should be on counters is canisters with like flour,cornmeal,sugar, and stuff in them and the can opener and coffee pot otherwise besides the drain board that is all we have on the counter.

I used to have all that stuff years ago...the bread maker , donutmaker...electric canopener, on and on. I got so tired of the space it took up that I got rid of it all. I now have a toaster, coffeemaker, crockpot & a small microwave....that's it. I have a spot for all of them and still have some cupboard space and counter space. I didn't need all those gadgets...most were gifts that I just really never used. Probably because I'm pretty old, I know how to make most things without all the gadgets. Some do make the job easier but way too many just take up space. happy

We have alot of gadgets too but we have plenty of counterspace for all of them. We have enough room for plates and dishes also. We are lucky about that.

If we had more space and more money, there'd be no end to the stuff my husband would get for our kitchen. He's a great cook, and a sucker for infomercials. I often have to come out here in the middle of the night to make sure he's not ordering more crap off of the TV. LOL We have our coffee maker, two espresso makers, a French press coffee maker, a Turkish coffee maker, a blender, a microwave, an electric can opener, and of course a stove and a fridge.
