Amazon kitchen tools explained

Features: Includes 23 interchangeable pieces, stainless steel and plastic construction, BPA-free and non-toxic.
Why buy: If you’re looking to declutter your kitchen, this versatile chopper could help with that. Thanks to its many different blade attachments, it can dice, chop, slice, julienne, grate, mash, mandoline, and more. The only downside is this tool is not dishwasher-safe.
Price: $39.99

Vavolo Hamburger Meat Chopper

Features: Five-blade head, temperature resistant up to 440 degrees F, nonstick and easy to clean.
Why buy: While this kitchen tool is marketed as a hack for cooking ground meat faster, our editor liked that it can be used for a lot of other things too, like scrambling eggs, making guacamole and mashing potatoes or other soft fruits.
Price: $14.99

Kitchen Gizmo Snap N Strain Strainer

Features: Made from food-grade BPA-free silicone.
Why buy: Unlike other strainers, this one from Kitchen Gizmo lies flat to take up a fraction of the cupboard space of other colanders and strainers. Adjustable clamps snap onto bowls and pots of all sizes for easy draining.
Price: $17.99

Popco Silicone Microwave Popcorn Popper

Features: Microwave and dishwasher-safe, collapsible, BPA and PVC-free.
Why buy: If you love the taste of stovetop popcorn but not the effort it takes to make, you may want to give this Popco tool a try. Shoppers rave that it “makes fluffy, delicious popcorn in minutes” and is “far more convenient than dragging out the air popper.” It’s also a healthy alternative to microwave popcorn bags since you can control the amount of salt, butter and seasoning used.
Price: $19.99

Ctzine Air Fryer Disposable Liners

Features: Available in round, rectangle or square shape, oil-proof, heat resistant up to 428 degrees F.
Why buy: Having personally used these disposable air fryer liners, I agree with the thousands of five-star reviews and shoppers who call them “an absolute game-changer” in the kitchen. The square shape fits perfectly inside my Ninja Speedi air fryer and helps cut down on cleaning time, especially when cooking meats that tend to leave behind a lot of grease.
Price: $18.97

Zoku Slush and Shake Maker

Why buy: This Zoku cup went viral on TikTok, racking up millions of views with videos of their slushie maker. It’s a simple idea: place the inner core in the freezer for eight hours, then pour in your ingredients and mix. Drinks freeze before your eyes, turning any beverage into a delicious slush.
Price: $34.95

Ibyx Bamboo Sliding Tray

Price: $37.65
