The Best Kitchen Appliances to Gift

Are you struggling to come up with gifts to give your partner? Are you looking to show your loved ones that you care? Are you searching for the perfect gift but keeping hitting dead ends? Well fear no more. Kitchen Solvers is here to guide you on your decision-making journey.

The kitchen is the hub of any household; it’s the place where people are brought together. The place where creativity and conversation flow freely. And a place with such a wide variety of purposes deserves to be fully utilized and appreciated. We have complied a list of the best kitchen appliances to gift your loved ones, friends, co-workers, or even yourself. Christmas, holidays, special occasions, birthdays or maybe there’s no special occasion you’re just in the market for some new appliances! Regardless your intentions, we want to ensure your kitchen is used to its utmost potential. Here are some kitchen appliance gifts below.

 Kitchen Aid Mixer

A Kitchen Aid Mixer is the perfect gift for someone who’s looking to become a more frequent baker/chef. A Kitchen Aid Mixer uses specifically designed mixing bowls that snap into place on the mixer’s support arms to provide stability and backing for heavy batches. Not only do they mix, but they also shred, grind, whip, knead, and mash. This mixer is perfect for whatever you can conjure up in the kitchen whether that’s preparing pizza dough or tweaking your famous chocolate chip cookie recipe.

 

Cuisinart Tabletop Grill or the Cuisinart 5-in-1 Gridler

Let’s not limit grilling and all its glory to only in the summertime. If you’re a grilling enthusiast and want further your skills, the Cuisinart tabletop grill is the way to go. And if you’re looking for something similar to the tabletop grill but a little more toned down, consider the Cuisinart 5-in-1 gridler. This multifunctional countertop grill can also be used as a griddle and press. With these appliances, grilling season is year-round.

Air Fryer

An air fryer is similar to an oven in the sense that it bakes and roasts, but the difference is its heating elements are only located on top and are accompanied by a large, powerful fan. Air fryers typically heat up very quickly and they cook food fast and evenly. Think of them as an amped-up countertop convection oven. With an air fryer, it’s easy to whip up frozen foods in a slightly healthier way than deep-frying.

Rice Cooker

A rice cooker is an electric countertop device designed to automatically cook rice to perfection. You simply put some water in a pot, and you get perfectly cooked, fluffy rice every single time, even when you’re distracted. Another bonus, rice cookers are easier to clean as well! Rice cookers are excellent for steaming rice, oatmeal and even quinoa while allowing you to shift your focus on other food prep tasks.

Instant Pot

An instant pot is starting to take the place of a crock pot. An instant pot is an electric pressure cooker which means it cooks foods faster by controlling the pressure within the pot. Pressure cookers work by creating heat under a tight seal, so the temperature is much higher than the boiling point of water and the steam can’t escape. The steam cooks food much more quickly than traditional stovetop or oven cooking. An instant pot is prime for meal prepping and preparing freezer meals; perfect if you have a busy week ahead.

Why You Should Consider a Hybrid Kitchen Remodel

Hybrid kitchen is a relatively new term we coined in the remodeling industry. So you might be wondering, what exactly does a hybrid kitchen remodel entail? Hybrid kitchens allow Kitchen Solvers to offer the best of both options to customers by saving them money while allowing them to add new cabinets or replace some cabinets that might not be useful. Here’s why a hybrid remodel might be the perfect fit for your next kitchen remodel. 

Hybrid kitchens construct a new style of kitchen around your already existing design. The beauty of a hybrid kitchen is that it can truly be whatever you want. If you’re looking to mix new cabinets with refaced cabinets, a hybrid kitchen remodel is the way to go. Not to mention hybrid kitchens are a great way to improve the functioning of your kitchen space. 

It’s common for homeowners to have a few doubts going into their remodel. Oftentimes, there’s a few things in their kitchen which they absolutely love and do not want to part with. A hybrid kitchen remodel mixes what you love about your current kitchen with what you want to incorporate into your new kitchen. For example, maybe you love most of your kitchen, but wish you had an extra-large pantry in an empty corner for more storage space. Kitchen Solvers can create a cohesive look by refacing your existing cabinetry and adding a new pantry cabinet and refacing that as well. We’ve also had homeowners have flood damage to their lower cabinets, but their upper cabinets are still in great condition. We can salvage the upper cabinets and add new lower cabinets and reface all the cabinets to make it look like one cohesive kitchen. At Kitchen Solvers, we pride ourselves in making your kitchen dreams become your reality. 


 

Opting to have a hybrid kitchen remodel means that no have the most flexibility to cater your space to your specific liking. Hybrid kitchens mean every look is unique, so you never have to worry about stepping foot in a kitchen that looks identical to yours. Not only will your kitchen look unique, but hybrid remodeling is an excellent route for those who want to remain within their budget. Instead of buying all new materials and paying for longer hours, hybrid kitchens use what you want and replace the outdated designs.

You can hang mugs, pots, pans, and other cooking utensils from hooks and store larger items on racks. Pro tip, before fully installing your hooks and racks make sure to check their weight capacity. 

Corner Shelves

Shelves don’t have to take up a lot of room for them to be useful. Even a shelf with a shorter than average length can be used to your advantage. Corners are often neglected within one’s home. They’re normally thought of as places to squeeze in a microwave or another appliance, but you can utilize this space to install cut shelving for extra storage. This storage space can be used as either a practical or decorative space. 

Introduce Shelf Inserts

Use shelf inserts to create extra levels for jars and other items with varying heights. A clip-on basket also maximizes pantry space, and you can place flatter foods like tortillas and pasta boxes underneath. Shelving inserts are a quick and easy way to double your storage space. They are also cost effective and take almost no time to install.

Cost-Effective Kitchen Materials

The kitchen is the heart of any household and one of the most used places in the house. A commonly asked question we get is, “How can I remodel my kitchen without breaking the bank?” Whether we like to hear it or not, regardless of how big or small your remodel is there will always be a price attached. However, we don’t want this number to halt your kitchen remodeling dreams. Here are a few cost-effective kitchen materials for your next remodel.  

Kitchen Flooring 

When it comes to kitchen flooring a great budget-friendly option is installing vinyl flooring. Vinyl plank flooring is water resistant and scratch resistant. This material can be crafted and manufactured to resemble any material. It’s well known for being made to look like hardwood flooring. Plus, an extra bonus is that vinyl maintenance is simple and easy to care for.  

Laminate Countertops 

A fan favorite for inexpensive kitchen materials is laminate countertops. In earlier years, laminate was known for scratching easily. However thanks to our current technology, laminate is quite durable and resistant. With advanced printing techniques laminate countertops can mimic stone, and they’re so accurate you can hardly tell the difference from the real thing. 

Tile Backsplashes and Countertops 

If you’re in the market for something resembling stone, tile is a great substitute. Tile is not only inexpensive, but it also comes in a variety of colorful or natural-toned designs. This gorgeous material can save you a significant amount of cash over custom-cut slabs of stone. Ceramic tile is both crack resistant and impervious to moisture making it a durable addition to any kitchen. Ceramic tile in a kitchen is glazed to provide extra protection in combating drops and stains.
