1. Blenders. Small kitchen appliances like blenders are not just for margaritas and smoothies. Having a oster blender in your kitchen is a must for preparing ingredients that must be ground up or thoroughly mixed together. You'll need a blender to prepare soups, dressings, sauces, and much more.
2. Crock pots. In today's busy world, who has time to cook a full dinner after work? Crock pots allow you to simmer meats, vegetables, and stews at a low heat all day long, so they're ready and waiting when the family assembles.
3. Toaster ovens. Sure, you can use them for toast, but a toaster oven does much, much more! Prepare everything from sandwiches to frozen snacks in these convenient small kitchen appliances.
4. Coffee makers. For coffee lovers in the household or for guests, a coffee maker is indispensable. If you don't drink much coffee, purchase a small one or two-cup machine; just make sure to have one on hand for emergencies!
5. Mixers. A must-have for any baker, a stand mixer speeds up prep time of most foods and keeps you from the tiresome task of beating or mixing ingredients by hand. Even a small hand mixer is an essential small appliance if you do any kind of cooking from scratch.
