Prime Day is like the Black Friday of the summer, where we all flock to the virtual aisles to snag deals we didn't even know we needed. But hey, we're not complaining. At the Brimly Test Kitchen, we know the thrill of finding that perfect kitchen gadget or tool that turns our cooking from a chore into a joy. And because we're all about making your kitchen adventures as exciting and efficient as possible, we've curated a list of must-haves for every kind of foodie you might be.
For the Home Baker
KitchenAid Tilt-Head Stand Mixer
At the Brimly Test Kitchen, we adore our KitchenAid stand mixers. These machines are a powerhouse for kneading dough, whisking eggs, and mixing batter. We have several KitchenAid models, but the 4.5-quart size is our top pick for Prime Day. It's versatile, allowing you to attach accessories like a spiralizer, ice shaver, or pasta maker. The current price of $250 is a steal, but we suggest waiting for Prime Day deals to snag it at an even better price.
Silpat Cookie Baking Mat
We love our Silpat mats at the Brimly Test Kitchen. These non-stick mats are perfect for baking cookies, as they come with markings that guide you on where to place your cookie dough. This prevents overcrowding and ensures your cookies bake evenly. The mats are reusable, easy to clean, and a must-have for any baker looking to perfect their cookie baking.
GSM Brands Proofing Box
The GSM Brands Pizza Dough Proofing Box is a perfect find for gluten-free bakers. At Brimly, we often face the challenge of finding the right place to let our dough rise. This proofing box comes with two trays and two lids, making it easy to stack and save counter space. It's perfect for letting your dough rise in a controlled environment, ensuring your baked goods come out perfectly every time.
The Coffee Drinker
Krups Coffee Grinder
The Krups Silent Vortex coffee grinder is a dream come true for coffee lovers. This grinder features a removable bowl that is dishwasher safe, making cleanup a breeze. It's quieter than most grinders and does a fantastic job of grinding coffee beans to the perfect consistency. We're excited to add this to our collection at the Brimly Test Kitchen and highly recommend it for Prime Day.
Subminimal NanoFoamer
This handheld milk frother is a fantastic find. It froths milk or cream in 30 seconds or less, depending on the consistency you desire. The frother is rechargeable, water-resistant, and comes with two foam disks for different foam sizes. It produces a café-quality foam that elevates your home coffee experience. We use it daily at Brimly and absolutely love it.
Bialetti Espresso Maker
The Bialetti Moka Express is a classic stovetop espresso maker that we cherish at the Brimly Test Kitchen. It’s like owning a piece of history. This six-cup model brews a rich, flavorful espresso, and its durable design means it can be passed down through generations. It's perfect for anyone who enjoys hands-on coffee making and appreciates a well-crafted espresso.
The Meal Prepper
Our Place Dream Cooker
The Our Place Dream Cooker is a versatile multicooker that can pressure cook, slow cook, sear, and sauté. It's aesthetically pleasing and features a hands-free steam release function, making it safer and easier to use than traditional pressure cookers. We already own this cooker at the Brimly Test Kitchen and love its functionality and design. It’s a fantastic investment for anyone serious about meal prep.
Chop Box Slicer
The Chop Box is a staple in our kitchen for quick and easy vegetable prep. This manual device is perfect for slicing potatoes, onions, bell peppers, and more. It's simple to use, efficient, and one of the smartest buys we've made recently. It’s a must-have for anyone who wants to streamline their meal prep process.
Rubbermaid Storage Containers
These airtight, BPA-free containers are perfect for meal prep and food storage. They come in a set of five, ideal for preparing meals for the workweek. The containers are microwave-safe and help keep food fresh by preventing odors from mingling in the fridge. We use these at Brimly for everything from meal preps to leftovers, and they never disappoint.
The Healthy Eater
Nutribullet Personal Blender
The Nutribullet Personal Blender is perfect for making smoothies on the go. Its powerful motor blends everything from frozen fruits to ice, creating smooth and silky results in seconds. We use it at Brimly to make hot sauces, and it’s incredibly efficient. Its small footprint makes it ideal for those with limited kitchen space.
OXO Salad Spinner
The OXO Salad Spinner is a kitchen essential for anyone who loves fresh, crisp salads. It's easy to use with a simple push-down mechanism and a brake button to stop the spinning. We use it at Brimly for drying veggies and even potatoes for fries. It’s a versatile tool that every healthy eater should have.
Jarware Spiralizer Lid
This innovative lid turns any mason jar into a spiralizer. It’s perfect for making zucchini noodles and other vegetable spirals. The lid fits most standard mason jars and is a budget-friendly alternative to electric spiralizers. We’re excited to add this to our toolkit at Brimly and recommend it for anyone looking to add more veggies to their diet.
The Water Buff
GoMist Drinking Bottle
The GoMist bottle is a unique find that functions as both a water bottle and a personal mister. Perfect for hot days, it provides a refreshing mist at the push of a button. It’s dishwasher safe and comes in several colors. We’re eager to try this out at Brimly and think it’s a great addition for anyone who spends time outdoors.
Air Up Water Bottle
The Air Up water bottle uses scent pods to trick your senses into thinking you’re drinking flavored water. This innovative technology makes hydration more enjoyable without added sugars or artificial flavors. We’re excited to test this out and think it’s a fun and healthy way to stay hydrated.
Alfi+Mag Glass Water Carafe
This elegant glass carafe and tumbler set is perfect for keeping water by your bedside. Its ripple design adds a touch of sophistication to any room. We love its aesthetic and functionality and are looking forward to adding it to our collection at Brimly. It’s a beautiful and practical piece for anyone who values style and convenience.
