Whether you’re moving into your new home for the first time or have lived in the same place for ages, one thing is certain. Appliances are an essential part of making day-to-day life in your home so much easier. Whether it’s something as big as a washing machine or something taken for granted like a kettle, we’ll show you the most essential appliances for any homeowner.
Kettle
The kettle is a seemingly overlooked appliance. Nearly every kitchen has one, and it makes morning pick-me-ups like coffee a dream to make. The inexpensive appliance is a must-have for any kitchen, whether it is plugged in or on the stove.
Stove
Every kitchen needs a stove top to make basic cooking a breeze. The versatility of cooking on a stove with just a few simple pots and pans means that’s all you’ll ever need, and it uses much less power than an oven.
Oven
While stoves might be the cornerstone of any kitchen, ovens still have their place when you really feel like broiling or baking. The power-hungry device will more than makeup for its power consumption when you’ve made a beautiful lasagna or delicious brownies.
Air Fryer
Just a few years ago, the microwave would have made this stop on the list, but the air fryer has become so popular for a reason. This device can cook frozen food in minutes and, with the right settings, can even make an amazing steak that’ll impress any guests.
Microwave
Even if the microwave isn’t as versatile as it once was compared to newer appliances, there’s still a reason it’s been in households for decades. Reheating leftovers is one of its strong suits and can make any cold food sizzling in seconds.
Coffee Maker
If boiling a kettle or buying an expensive coffee machine isn’t your thing, then a coffee maker might be the appliance for you. A French press or a percolator is an affordable option to get that daily cup of coffee without spending hundreds on an expensive machine.
Bread Maker
Bread makers may be a little more niche than the other appliances on this list, but when you feel like a fresh loaf of bread, nothing’s better than making it in the comfort of your kitchen. Despite the wonders of bread though, this appliance has little other uses.
Blender
A Blender can be used for many lifestyles. Whether you’re a health fanatic looking to make vitamin rich smoothies, or you like spoiling yourself with a milkshake every once in a while, a blender offers all of that and more. You can liquidate pretty much anything into a consistency as thick or smooth as you need.
Kitchen Scale
Last on the list, but definitely not least. A kitchen scale is a must for anyone looking to bake or work with exact recipes. It’s normally okay to guesstimate, but when you need your cooking to come out perfectly, the only way is to use a kitchen scale.
