The Best Countertop Appliances | Serious Eats

In many apartments, the kitchen is the space in which we make the most sacrifices. That area, while sometimes minuscule, is where you do all of your cooking. It’s also where you must skillfully Tetris your beloved appliances. But which ones are the must-haves, the ones that deserve to take up some of that precious counter space? These are the go-to items we at Serious Eats love and use all the time.

    Excellent video! Ariel is a delightful narrator



  6. D H on October 15, 2020 at 5:19 pm

    Well done Ariel! Thanks for your info. I keep going back and forth about taking the plunge about an expensive food processor. You have convinced me to go for the vitamix. Your videos are delightful, fun and informative. More!!!

    Was this just an ad for ads?!

    Chicken nuggets!



  10. Stephen DeVore on October 15, 2020 at 5:20 pm

    If she was my wife I would be happy to buy her anything she wanted. WOW !! I guess I will have to settle for the chicken nugget recipe.

    Vitamix Esp the 5000-53000 are the commercial mixers which have since evolved. The Kitchen Aid is the smaller commercial Hobart
    The Magimix is the smaller commercial Robo-Coupe.
    Yup

    A good little compendium.

    NUGGETS!!!

  16. Oberschaf on October 15, 2020 at 5:27 pm

    Sorry, but with these cheap tattoos, I just can’t take her seriously… not even when I’m trying…😔



  17. Stacy Hackney on October 15, 2020 at 5:27 pm

    Thank you.



  18. Jacqueline’s Sew Organized on October 15, 2020 at 5:30 pm

    The older Hobart mixers actually have metal gears too. I have one and it’s a beast!



  19. Brenda Russell on October 15, 2020 at 5:30 pm

    Your suggestions seem, mostly, to be in lottery territory. I will respectfully suggest, based on over 45 years of cooking, that any "expert" list of essentials be taken with at least a modicum of skepticism. Buy very little to begin with and add to that according to what you actually need, at an affordable price. Shop your local thrift store, not an online kitchen boutique. Don’t end up with a kitchen overflowing with thousands of dollars’ worth of stuff you’ve never used.

    After cooking for a family of 5, I have yet to purchase a food processor. I have knives and I’m not afraid to use them; none of my knives cost $150, let alone more. In fact, I doubt that all the knives I’ve ever bought cost that much, in total.



  20. Misty Uren on October 15, 2020 at 5:31 pm

    I remember our mother would always use the same large carving knife on such things as the Thanksgiving turkey and then use the same knife for chopping up the large fecal logs my brother would leave in the toilet which then wouldn’t flush.  Every holiday I’d just stare at that big knife  and think ‘hunks of shit’.



  21. James Hobbs on October 15, 2020 at 5:31 pm

    She finds it hard to make rice on the stovetop?
    Sad.



  22. J J on October 15, 2020 at 5:32 pm

    U mention they’re good products but give no real insight the specific functions of each product. Like we know what a kettle does but maybe explain the different temp settings or i get u say its a good blender but what are the power levels? Doesn’t make me trust the person when they can’t even tell me why the product is different from the competition



  23. David Greensmith on October 15, 2020 at 5:33 pm

    I have the Breville Boss Blender, their stand mixer and their food processor. They give the Vitamix, Magimix and Kitchen Aid a run for their money.



  24. Harold Henderson on October 15, 2020 at 5:35 pm

    Loose the pizza oven. Buy unglazed ceramic (or terracotta) tiles to put on your oven rack. Much cheaper.



  25. Alactrium on October 15, 2020 at 5:37 pm

    Fruit or cookies or
    *deepest breath*

    Alcohol.

    Oscar-worthy.



  26. Steve Ayala on October 15, 2020 at 5:38 pm

    Lots of good stuff! One thing I would add is a sous vide circulator and maybe a vavuum sealer.



  27. Colin Bartlett on October 15, 2020 at 5:41 pm

    Chicken nugget recipe, please.



  28. Stephen Elms on October 15, 2020 at 5:41 pm

    You have a Joule on the counter and in just about every shot, but no mention of sous vide? Given how much one can cook with a pot of water and some time seemed a better buy over the $800 pizza oven.



  29. Rex Oper on October 15, 2020 at 5:42 pm

    Sodastream? Wtf???



  30. JjrShabadoo on October 15, 2020 at 5:43 pm

    +1 nuggets



  31. Tacosauce on October 15, 2020 at 5:44 pm

    Brags about her channel any chance she gets , we get it you want money



  32. Michelle VDG on October 15, 2020 at 5:45 pm

    Hilarious like I’m gonna spend 600-900 bucks on that red mixer but damn it’s gorgeous



  33. Michael P on October 15, 2020 at 5:46 pm

    I want a chicken nugget recipe!!!!! #TeamNugget



  34. Liz T on October 15, 2020 at 5:47 pm

    The breville oven is great till it falls apart after only a year. I do not recommend it!



  35. Maxine Headroom on October 15, 2020 at 5:48 pm

    Sodastream has plants in occupied areas of Palestine. It’s really shocking to hear you guys support war crimes!



  36. dlxe on October 15, 2020 at 5:50 pm

    I do not agree with the vitamix. It’s more worth it to get a vacuum blender for the price c’mon



  37. The Good Plate on October 15, 2020 at 5:52 pm

    Have a look at the Braun Food Processor from Germany. The best thing about it is the variable speed in addition to pulse. It also has a smaller bowl that fits in it, a dough blade, a shipping blade and a citrus juicer. It’s also relatively quiet. It’s a wonderful piece of machinery.



  38. Harold Henderson on October 15, 2020 at 5:53 pm

    After burning out 3 "kitchen" blenders, I bought a "bar" blender. 3 speeds, Off-Lo-Hi.



  39. Al Hung on October 15, 2020 at 5:56 pm

    Wait – Robot Coup?



  40. L2THEC1 on October 15, 2020 at 5:57 pm

    I love Breville since , the movie Enemy of the State, and that blender l still own, but how much did they pay ya’ll 😋😋😋



  41. Ryan Heddins on October 15, 2020 at 5:58 pm

    Chicken Nuggets, Please!!!



  42. Pretty Prudent on October 15, 2020 at 6:00 pm

    …and then she swaps saliva with the dog at the end.



  43. Daily Kitchen Supply on October 15, 2020 at 6:00 pm

    Great ideas



  44. PolisAppliance on October 15, 2020 at 6:01 pm

  45. Kimberly Goodwin on October 15, 2020 at 6:05 pm

    I have everything on this list except the pizza maker. I’m serious in my home cooking. Lol!



  46. Luke Blackman on October 15, 2020 at 6:06 pm

    Vitamix is goat

    It has been observed that appliances acquired on rent make a lot of sense when you moving to long distance quite often. Click here for more info Must-have essentials every renter need – https://www.howtocrazy.com/basic-home-appliances-must-have-essentials-every-renter-need/



  48. Phillip Mulligan on October 15, 2020 at 6:09 pm

    I am looking for a dual oven stand for my fulls iced microwave and a large Brevelle toaster oven. Sadly no one online sells such dual oven stands. I hate loosing precious counter top space to a big toaster oven.



  49. A W 2 on October 15, 2020 at 6:09 pm

    I have to ask: is this supposed to be SATIRE??? WHO on earth can AFFORD all that equipment?



  50. Michael Quisao on October 15, 2020 at 6:12 pm

    Oh no, I have a serious crush on Ariel. And I am here for a chicken nugget recipe. 😂
