Since the implementation of shelter-in-place orders earlier this year, we’ve all been spending a lot more time in our kitchens. The kitchen is the heart of the home. From a Feng Shui perspective, it is seen as the part of the home that nourishes and sustains life and as an essential symbol of wealth and prosperity. Hence, enhancing the functionality and usability of your kitchen in a key step to creating good Feng Shui within the space.
One of the quickest and easiest ways to enhance the usability of our kitchens is with small appliances. They make our culinary lives easier without cluttering too much precious counter space. Here are 7 of my favorite kitchen appliances you can find on Amazon right now:
Nespresso Coffee Machine – Vertuoplus Deluxe: Simplify your morning caffeine routine with this sleek and versatile automatic coffee maker. It brews the perfect single-serve, barista-grade Espresso or Americano coffee every time with the touch of a button. Vertuoline capsules are easy to use and are readily available online, too.
Vitamix E310 Explorian Blender: Explore how simple it is to make healthy, whole-food recipes at home. From appetizers to dessert, what I love about this particular blender is that the 1.4L container is ideal for blending medium batches for small family meals.
Instant Pot Duo Nova 7-in-1 Electric Pressure Cooker: The first home pressure cookers became popular in the early to mid 20th century. Technology has evolved quite a way since then. This state-of-the-art pressure cooker is 7 appliances in 1: pressure cooker, sauté pan, steamer, slow cooker, rice cooker, food warmer, and yogurt maker! The 6 Quart is the perfect size for feeding up to 6 people.
Smeg Retro Style Aesthetic Hand Blender: Ergonomic and designed to be durable, functional, and perfectly “handy” with its anti-slip grip, Smeg’s HBF01RDUS Retro Style Hand Blender is an indispensable home appliance for cooking quickly and intelligently. Like most Smeg products, they come in a variety of fun colors. Enhance the Fire Element with a cheeky pop of red.
Breville Mini Smart Oven with Element IQ: This Mini Smart Oven by Breville is an affordable option for the at-home cook who is looking for a countertop oven that bakes and toasts evenly. The Smart Element IQ design transfers heat intelligently throughout the oven which allows for precise cooking.
Hurom HP Slow Juicer: Juicing has been popular for quite a few years now, and the trend isn’t going away anytime soon. With its stylish design and slow squeeze technology that simulates the motion of hand-squeezing juice, this must-have appliance ensures a revitalizing natural taste every time. I love the fresh, mint color too.
Rabbit Electric Wine Set: This is a must-have appliance for all wine connoisseurs. The electric corkscrew allows you to open bottles seamlessly without any mess while the airtight stoppers keep opened wine fresher for longer. Cheers to that!
