I'm a pro baker, and these are the kitchen deals I'm most excited about today — save up to 60%

As mentioned, I used to bake for a living, and my trusty KitchenAid stand mixer is my go-to appliance. Cake batters, cookie doughs, breads, frostings, meringues — you name it, I've probably made it using this mighty machine. Unlike flimsier mixers, this one was built to last (there's a reason KitchenAids are often passed down from one generation to the next). At 4.5 quarts, it can hold enough dough to make up to eight dozen cookies at a time, though it won't take up much room in your kitchen. Oh, and you'll get a beater, dough hook and whisk attachments for making practically any baked good under the sun. 

"Everything about this KitchenAid Classic mixer exhibits all the quality I've come to expect from KitchenAid!" exclaimed an impressed baker. "I love the look and the way it performs. I'd never used a dough hook before, but this weekend I made three big batches of rolls, and I will never go back to kneading by hand. Very pleased overall and highly recommend."

This multi-use, nonstick beauty just might become your most-utilized piece of cookware, thanks to its thoughtful design (which has attracted celebs like Selena Gomez and Oprah, by the way). The ceramic coating is slick and free of PFAS, while the handle smartly doubles as a spoon rest. Speaking of utensils, it comes with a wooden spatula and metal steamer basket that can be used as a colander, and it's oven-safe up to 450°F for added versatility. 

"So much nicer on my wrists than my heavy pans," gushed a satisfied buyer. "Absolutely nothing sticks. So excited to add color back into my kitchen as well. I will say, the pan holds a lot more than it appears and is perfect for most meals."

'Tis the season for enjoying tasty frozen treats, and this wildly popular appliance will satiate your sweet tooth in between trips to the ice cream truck. It churns out everything from ice cream and sorbet to milkshakes and more — just add your ingredients, freeze overnight, press a button and ta-da! Plus, you'll be able to customize your creation with your favorite mix-ins. This is just about as low as I've seen it on sale for. 

"I am dairy-free, and finding a delicious dairy-free ice cream has been extremely difficult for me," explained a (now) satisfied scooper. "Now I'm able to make my favorite flavors at home dairy-free! It's super easy to use [and] cleans easily ... my only complaint is it sounds like an airplane, it's so loud."

Le Creuset who? I cook with Lodge Dutch ovens at home, and this one is just the right size for a smaller household. The slick enameled interior cleans like a dream, while the sturdy cast iron offers excellent heat distribution and retention. Plus, it's so pretty you won't mind leaving it on the stove for everyone to admire. 

"Don't tell my KitchenAid mixer, but I think I love this more," joked a reviewer. "I'm Greek and cook a lot. I've used this for everything from pasta dishes like manestra to frying keftedes (meatballs) — [I've] even used [it] to bake bread! It's a great item for one-pot meals. While it gets plenty hot because it's cast iron, the enamel makes deglazing and cleaning a breeze. I use mostly silicone and wooden tools, but even with metal utensils, I haven't had any chips. ... Lodge is a great brand for those of us who can't quite afford Le Creuset."

This nifty fridge lazy Susan was designed to maximize space (while minimizing food waste). It's rectangular to make the best use of your fridge shelves, and it rotates 360 degrees so you can easily see — and remember — everything you have before it spoils. 

"Gone are the days of old sauces, jars and containers getting stuck in the back of the fridge to turn into a forgotten fuzzy science experiment," shared an impressed shopper. "This amazing turntable makes everything on the tray really easy to grab and find, we are a lot less wasteful because we have access to it all on the turntable. We love it!"

Yes, this top-seller might technically be called a meat thermometer, but don't underestimate its value when it comes to liquids and baked goods. The most accurate way to tell whether food is done cooking is by taking its temperature, and this gizmo presents a reading in seconds.

"You remember sticking a fork/toothpick in a pan of brownies to see if they are finished yet? Think of this as a more advanced fork!" wrote a home cook. "I've found the readings to be very accurate for cooking quiche, baking cakes, as well as cooking steak and chicken. This is a good tool to have in the kitchen for food safety, as well as making better food, since you'll be less likely to overcook when ensuring food safety temperatures are met. Recommended temperatures are printed on the back as well for quick reference."

Not only does this Keurig make brewing hot coffee a cinch, it also has an iced function that'll really come in handy this season. You'll be able to make up to eight cups before needing to refill the 75-ounce water reservoir, and the removable drip tray allows you to fit a 7.2-inch travel mug. Elite, indeed!

"Easy setup out of the box and very simple to use," shared a five-star fan. "Absolutely love the larger volume in the water tank! Before, I seemed to have to fill my old Keurig much more frequently. My wife loves the iced coffee function, and I have to agree with her; somehow it manages to make smooth coffee without melting any ice. The snap-in filters are easy to use and change out."

Your dinner guests will be green with envy when they spot this emerald stunner on your counter. But as pretty as this mini machine is, the most exciting feature just might be the fact that it's cordless, meaning you won't have to unplug the toaster and coffee maker every time you go to use it. 

"I was a little skeptical if a battery-powered chopper would stand up to my corded chopper," admitted a convert. "The answer is yes ... With style, convenience and power, KitchenAid does it again. I also really appreciate the 'splash guard' and how effective it is. And I’m shocked [by] how quiet it is. The battery is pretty quick to charge and easy to remove from the chopper."

Rachael Ray, Ina Garten, Giada De Laurentiis and even Reese Witherspoon use Boos Block cutting boards, so you know you're getting a quality piece. Having a large slab like this will allow you to prep multiple ingredients on the same surface, and it's reversible in case you'd like to separate vegetables from meat. The indented handles on each side make for easier carrying too. 

"Terrific cutting board," raved one happy home cook. "I have the tiniest kitchen in my apartment, and after watching some organizing videos, I realized I should make my small counter space completely covered by this sturdy cutting board. Why bother storing those dinky bamboo cutting boards when my complete surface is usable for food prep!"

These No. 1 bestsellers are heat-resistant up to 500°F, thanks to their silicone coatings — and not only that, their ribbed design offers better grip than cloth mitts, plus they're water-resistant to protect your hands from hot splatters. They come in over 20 colors, though prices vary. (This pair is 60% off!)

"These oven mitts are a game-changer in my kitchen," declared a shopper. "The ribbed silicone design provides a secure grip on hot pots and pans, giving me confidence when handling them. The soft inner lining is comfortable to wear and provides excellent heat protection. I appreciate that they are flexible and allow for easy movement of my hands, unlike some other oven mitts that can feel stiff and bulky. Plus, the set comes with two mitts, so I always have a backup when one is in the wash."

Do you have a bit of a Starbucks obsession? It'll be more like Star-(save some)-bucks once you get a load of this powerful device, which will have you whipping up and enjoying foamy beverages in no time. Let's be real — the appeal of a cappuccino starts dwindling the longer one waits in that chaotic a.m. line, and why shell out for something that's so easy to make at home?

"So easy to use to make a cafe au lait or cappuccino," wrote a caffeine fiend. "I have also used it to whip eggs quickly for fluffy omelets. If you like frothy milk, save yourself the $5 coffees — this thing pays for itself."

Every home cook needs a good knife or two, and this affordable set will have you slicing and dicing with ease. Made by Henckels, a brand with over 100 years of knife-crafting experience, this duo includes 5.5-inch and 7-inch santoku knives. Their shorter, fine-edged blades are suitable for precision chopping and thinly slicing while their lightweight construction makes for effortless movement. 

"Bought these to replace some of my older knives," shared a content customer. "They work great and come sharp out of the box. I like the two sizes and they both fit in my hand well. Easy to grip and control while cutting."

Being able to chop with less hand fatigue is like a little slice of heaven, and this set was constructed with comfort in mind. Each piece features a lightweight, unibody design, meaning the hollow handles and blades have been melded into one piece of high-carbon German stainless steel. This allows for better maneuverability with less wrist strain while you chop. Included are an 8-inch chef's knife, a 3.5-inch paring knife, a 7-inch santoku knife, an 8-inch carving knife, a 5-inch utility knife, an 8-inch serrated bread knife, six 4.5-inch non-serrated steak knives, a knife sharpener, kitchen shears and an attractive wooden storage block to keep everything neatly contained on your counter.

"I manage a restaurant and I have to say, you will not find anything better for the price and quality of this set," shared a shopper. "They’re heavy-duty, chef-quality. I definitely recommend."
