Out with the Instant Pot, in with the rice cooker

Though I bought it with the intention of cooking a great many things (beans! grains! polenta! greens!) for the past couple years I have used my Instant Pot for one thing and one thing only—rice. Which led to the inevitable existential question: Why do I have an Instant Pot and not a rice cooker? There is no good answer to this. So I am patiently waiting for the right rice cooker to go on sale. Then I can say farewell to my Instant Pot—we had some good times, sort of!—and free up the full cabinet it's been occupying. Also, I'll finally be able to make deputy food editor Hana Asbrink's rice-cooker shiitake salmon. —Emma Laperruque, associate director of cooking

An electric kettle for cozy beverage season

When I make tea and am visiting my parents, I allow myself to live in luxury and use their electric kettle. I can get the exact temperature I need to brew a cup of tea and it turns off when it's done boiling and saves me a scalded pot. The funny thing is that throughout college I always had a cheap, but functional kettle to boil water in. In adulthood, however, for some reason I have decided to live on the edge and either boil water in a small pot or stick a mug full of water in the microwave. After a few too many mouth burns, the time has come for me to invest in a kettle and if the Amazon Prime gods allow, I want it to be this very good looking, very functional one from Kettle. —Kate Kassin, editorial operations manager

An upgraded ice cream maker with a compressor

As someone who is decidedly not a planner and whose freezer is constantly full, I've had my eye on the Lello Musso Lussino for years. I loved it the moment I used it at a friend's place. With its built-in compressor, there’s no need for pre-freezing and it’s the closest you can get to near instant ice cream gratification. It consistently makes ice cream from a cold base in under 20 minutes, always a good thing when it comes to ice cream making (the faster the churn, the smaller the ice crystals and smoother the end result). Buying one is cheaper than a vacation to Italy and that might well be the rationale behind my purchase. —Shilpa Uskokovic, senior test kitchen editor

A pizza oven instead of a grill

I live in a small rowhouse in Philadelphia that is completely impractical for storing a grill. But lately I am thinking that what I might actually use, and have room for, is an Oona Koda pizza oven.  Will I make pizza with it? Maybe. What I really am excited about is the promise of searing heat dancing around trays of flame-licked vegetables, smoky fish, and blistered chicken, without the risk of setting off my smoke alarm indoors. If it goes on sale for Prime Day I might just have to take the leap.

New blenders

I haven’t owned a full-size blender since I was in college, and I think I’ve finally reached a breaking point with my dinky little 10-year-old bullet-style model. Vitamix is the biggest name in blenders for a reason, and I have my eyes on the brand’s Explorian model for its low profile and lower price tag than some of its other models (even lower now at over $100 off). I do still love a bullet blender for my morning smoothies, though, so I’m swapping my current model for the one that associate commerce director Emily Johnson raves about. —Alaina Chou

A top immersion blender

If I could have only one blender, it would be an immersion blender. They’re so versatile and convenient, and even some of the more affordable models do a great job of blending and puréeing. Still, I’m ready for an upgrade, so I’m thrilled to see this powerful Vitamix model on sale. I’ve already added it to my cart. —Emily Farris

A mini food processor

While I already have a full-size food processor (inherited from my grandma and probably from the 1980s), it’s kind of a pain to take out and is often too big for the tasks my solo cooking endeavors require of it. This Prime Day I’ve got my eyes on a mini version that will be perfect for all my small batch pestos, nut butters, and summer gazpachos. Plus, it comes in a pistachio green that’ll match my set of KitchenAid mixing bowls (which, BTW, are also on sale). —A.C.

An induction burner

I have a subpar electric rental stove, so I’m always flirting with the idea of getting an induction burner and pretending I’m cooking for one of those hands-and-pans Buzzfeed videos of a bygone internet era. Plus, induction cooking is some of the most accurate, quickest, and environmentally sound you can do. This one won our product test and is 27% off. —E.J.

Coffee gear

A milk frother

On the last prime day i bought this milk frother or my wife, she used to use it to heat/froth cold almond milk instead of having to microwave her coffee. now she makes matcha lattes in it every day, you just put everything in and push a button. —Dan Siegel, senior director of creative development

An Aeropress

It’s a long story I won’t get into, but my travel Nespresso machine (I guess that’s another long story I won’t get into) was involved in an accident and is no longer functional. It’s a bummer but it’s provided an opportunity to downsize my travel espresso setup. I know a lot of coffee nerds who love the Aeropress, so since it’s 30% off today, I’m going to give it a try. —Emily Farris

Insulated espresso cups

Yes, we're all obsessed with that Big Dumb Cup, but what about Small Dumb Cups? I’ve coveted these mini Yeti cups ever since my coworker Carina first sipped from one on a Zoom call. I have a well-documented problem drinking coffee fast enough before it gets cold. I know, espresso is a very small quantity of liquid deliberately designed to be taken in a single gulp. I’m a sipper! I’m sorry! These combine my love of all things mini and insulated cups, and they’re 20% off now. —Emily Johnson

A bottomless portafilter

For all my work with the dozens of espresso machines I’ve tested (I’ve still got 4 residing in my basement) I don’t yet own a bottomless portafilter. If you don’t have one and aren’t familiar with them, they replace the spouted portafilters that come with your espresso machine. They’re good because they let you see how the extraction is going when you pull a shot. A good sign it’s going well is when the streams of coffee quickly converge into one. If you’re grabbing a new portafilter for your espresso maker, just make sure you get one that’s the right size. I need a 58mm, but most Breville machines, just as an example, will need a 54mm size. —Noah Kaufman

A new Boos block

I adored by my big Boos cutting board, but tragically it met its end when it split in half. That's not a comment on the quality of the board—it was 11 years old and got knocked on to the floor by an energetic child—but it does prove that nothing is indestructible. I know they tend to go on sale during the big Amazon events and true to form, the exact board that split is 20% off. Good news for me. - N.K.

A fresh apron

I'm 32 years old and new to actually…owning an apron and taking the time to put it on before I cook. Turns out, it does great things in terms of preventing flour and egg and grease splattering on your clothing while you're baking a birthday cake. Who knew? Certainly not me. Beloved apron brand Hedley and Bennett has a sale going on right now, both on their site and on Amazon, so I'm going to treat myself to a second apron to celebrate this new stain-preventative lifestyle I've adopted. I won't personally be purchasing the psychedelic Grateful Dead apron that's currently on sale, but I think it goes hard and someone should. —E.J.

A salad spinner

I don't know why it's taken me so long to get a salad spinner—everybody at work is obsessed with them and can't stop singing their praises. According to my coworkers, there's no better way to dry off tender herbs and lettuces than with the power of centripetal motion. Compared to scrunching leafy greens up with a dish cloth or paper towel (which is what I typically do), using a salad spinner keeps everything perky and sog-free. Hooray for salad that's not wet! —Wilder Davies

New kitchen towels

I refresh my kitchen towels every year on Amazon Prime Day. The burned, stained, and torn flour sack towels get relegated to bathroom cleaning and in comes a fresh new set for the kitchen. These utilitarian guys can be used for drying your hands, yes, but they’re also a powerful kitchen tool. Use them to dry herbs, to grab hot pans, and to shape and cover dough. And that’s not all. They’re essentially washable cheese cloths: wrap tofu, shredded zucchini, or beets in these things and squeeze all of the moisture out for maximum crisp. P.S., I think we figured out why my old set is stained. —E.J.
