I must be one of those weird families that actually uses all the kitchen gadgets..
electric gridle - pancakes every weekend. no need to serve in batches, or try to keep the first ones warm while the remaining cook . cook them all in once batch, and it does a better job than a cast iron skillet or a frying pan. plus, it was cheaper than a used frying pan lol.
bread machine - wedding gift. Wife makes cinnamon buns, pizza dough, break multiple times a week.
kitchenaid - pre mustachian purchase, still price shopped around and used a coupon. Wife uses for muffins and cookies and such also at least weekly.
Coffe machine - grinds and brews according to alarm clock every morning. A luxury that would be worth paying for a new one every year :)
Crock pot - used ALL the time. with the rice machine.. set it, forget it, dinner is ready at the end of the day.
toaster oven - best way to reheat pizza. If you pre heat, you can do regular baking in it, which we do often instead of heating up the big gas oven.
Things we never used much / never owned / got rid of / or need to sell on craigslist:
pressure cooker, dont even own one, Do not do canning, anything else I am not sure how it benefits. My Mom used one growing up to cook potatoes faster for mashed potatoes.
George Forman - Wife used to use this in her single days. I like the gas grill. I want to run a gas line to the grill to avoid the tanks, but need to build a deck first to have a permanant locaiton for a grill. Never liked the george forman, hard to clean, no more convenient than a real grill, does not taste as good as a real grill.
hand mixer - kitchenaid for big things, hand whisk for most things.
ice cream machine - takes up too much space in freezer to get bowl frozen, makes small batch that is not THAT much better than grocery store, and ends up being more $$
toaster - toaster oven is so much better, i have not had a toaster in 15+ years.
blender - our food choices do not seem to utilize a blender very often. Wife did make some shakes during pregnancy, but now it is almost never used.
food processor - never owned one, wife got a slicing attachment as a gift for the kitchen aid. Seems faster to use a knife and hand power than to set up the attachment for veggies, but for grating cheese it beats a grater and bloody knuckles any day.
So anyways sorry about the side off topic rant, but I find that we use devices different than others, and I thought if you found similarities or differences to your own utilization of some of these things it might help you decide. And if you make just 3 meals with any kitchen device that replace going out to eat, you are spending less than most.
