If you’ve been resisting the air fryer hype, now’s the time to give in.
If you’re not familiar with this product, all you need to know is that it can bake, grill, fry and roast meals up to 30% faster than using the oven, ordering DoorDash or going to your in-laws who can cook. From crispy air-fried snacks to perfectly roasted meats, why make dinner harder than it needs to be?
Cuisinart 14-Cup Food Processor
Ever tried making a pesto sauce without a food processor? Don’t. Live your best chef life and get what the pros use.

At the top of every bride’s wish list is the Vitamix—one of the best blenders money can buy.
The Vitamix E310’s unmatched performance will have you whipping up smoothies, soups, nut butters and gelatos from scratch, à la Nara Smith. Tuck it away or keep it out—its compact size makes it easy to store, and the brand promises it will last up to 10X longer than your average blender.

KitchenAid Artisan Stand Mixer, 5 Qt
Nothing says “I’m getting married” more than a KitchenAid. This may be the number one most-asked-for item on every wedding registry.
While it does cost a pretty penny, it’s worth it. This machine can mix, whip, knead and make noodles whenever you want. Midnight chocolate chip cookies? This is the machine behind the magic. Not to mention it comes in so many colors, you can decorate your whole kitchen around it.
Le Creuset Signature Braiser, 2.25 Qt
A Le Creuset is a home chef’s best friend.
Perfect for braising short ribs, making paella, sautéing vegetables, deep-frying chicken, roasting pork chops, baking casseroles and so much more. Its iconic design is something you can take from oven to table as a beautiful serving dish.
Staub Round Dutch Oven, 5.5 Qt
Debatably the most essential kitchen tool: a Dutch oven.
Braise meat, bake bread, and make soups, stews or even a casserole. Perfect for slow cooking over long periods with low heat, you’ll find yourself breaking out the Staub every time you entertain. Just be sure to pick your favorite color, because you won’t be replacing it anytime soon.

Its superior heat retention makes it an easy swap to grill burgers, brats, vegetables and more. The enamel coating is easy to clean up and it has a beautiful finish that’ll go with any kitchen décor.
