14 Must Have Kitchen Products From Amazon
Last month I made the move to Austin after 11 lovely years in San Francisco! One of the things I was most excited about was getting a nice apartment and making it beautiful, starting with my kitchen. I cook most meals at home so I knew I needed to get my kitchen functioning first and foremost and Amazon, with its one or two day Prime shipping, helped make that happen in no time.
14 Must Have Kitchen Products From Amazon
MATTE BLACK CABINET AND DRAWER PULLS — The very first thing I did when I moved into my new apartment was swap out the ugly silver hardware in my kitchen for these matte black pulls. When I showed the before and after pics on my Instagram story people were floored by how big of a difference it made and how much better it looks now (as was I). Even if you’re renting, as I am, it’s worth taking the 30 minutes to switch them out if what you’re given is dated or just not to your liking. Just make sure to keep the originals somewhere handy so that you can switch them back after!
The ones I used are from Amazon and are very reasonably priced compared to a lot of the others on the market. Click here for the ones I use on my drawers and here for the cabinet ones.
KITCHEN RUNNER — My new kitchen runner was also one of my first new apartment purchases because I had scoped it out and bookmarked it long before I arrived. Rugs can be so expensive but this one is not at all (when I purchased it it was around $75) yet it is incredibly beautiful. Everyone who comes over or sees it in my IG story raves about it!
And of course with Prime shipping it was a breeze to get. Click here for the exact one I bought.
NESPRESSO VERTUO COFFEE AND ESPRESSO MAKER — My favorite part of my morning routine is waking up and making a coffee first thing, which is why I absolutely swear by this Nespresso maker. With it you can make either coffee or espresso and it saves you a ton of money doing it yourself at home.
Click here to see current pricing and availability. Getting refill pods is super easy too, I buy these ones.
ICED COFFEE MAKER — I can’t remember how I found out about this iced coffee maker but it’s one of my favorite discoveries of 2020 for sure. I much prefer iced coffee to hot and all you have to do is put ground coffee in, fill a separate part of the pitcher with cold water, shake it, and throw it in your fridge overnight.
Easy as can be and worth every penny! Click here to see pricing and availability.
GLASS TUMBLER WITH SILICONE PROTECTIVE SLEEVE — Another great Amazon find: this glass tumbler. I use it both at home with my iced coffee and when I need to run out. Click here to see availability.
MARBLE PASTA BOWLS — Before arriving I ordered some fancy new plates and bowls from Blue Pheasant. Because I eat at home most days and I make a lot of big salads so I wanted some more bowls to throw into the mix. I stumbled upon this brand on Amazon with countless five star reviews for every product and knew I needed it. There’s a lot of pretty color options but the marble pasta bowls were too cute to pass up.
I’ve been using them nonstop for weeks and so far they are absolutely fantastic! Click here to get yours.
GLASS AND BAMBOO AIRTIGHT JARS — These glass jars are great for storing things like nuts, grains, and pastas (at least that is what I use them for). The glass and bamboo combo makes them pretty enough to keep out on the counter which is where I keep mine. I try to buy things in bulk or by the pound as much as possible to cut down on package waste and store them in here. Click here for the ones I have.
GLASS AND WOOD AIRTIGHT SPICE JARS — Along the same lines as the above mentioned jars, these are specifically for spices! Click here for the ones I have.
BAMBOO DISH DRYING RACK — This one is pretty self explanatory. If you’re in the market for a dish drying rack, to hold your dishes after you hand wash them while they dry, I got mine on Amazon. So far, so good. Click here for the one I have.
SILICONE AND WOOD KITCHEN UTENSIL SET — Keeping with my wood and neutrals theme, this silicone and wood kitchen utensil set works great and looks great. Click here to see current options.
AMBER GLASS SOAP DISPENSER WITH MATTE BLACK PUMP — I try to also buy my dish soap and hand soap in bulk, again to cut down on package waste, so I purchased these amber glass soap dispensers. They look incredibly beautiful on the counter and work exactly as expected. Aesthetically I enjoy them more than I thought I would - they honestly spark joy! Click here to see availability and options.
COMPAGNIE DE PROVENCE LUXURY HAND CREAM — This brand of hand soap and cream has made its round in the blogger world which is how I fell prey to it. The hype is basically over the packaging, from what I can tell, but the product itself is good too! I bought it primarily for the matte black and white aesthetic and plan to refill it with something (whether it be the same brand or not) once it runs out. Click here to check availability.
FAUX MARBLE COASTERS — If you’re in the market for coasters, these faux marble ones are great! The fact that they’re white and faux marble means they look good literally everywhere in my house which is an added bonus. Click here for the ones I have.
TABLET AND PHONE STAND HOLDER — This is a weird one and not kitchen specific at all but I keep mine in my kitchen which is why it made this list! It’s a phone and tablet holder. If you need to film anything hands free you can certainly use it for that (it’s really adjustable). I use it though to hold my phone and either play something I am half watching while cooking or show me a recipe I am following.
I saw people rave about it for so long before finally caving and buying one myself. Now I use it every single day, basically all day, and would be lost without it! I even keep my phone in it while I’m working like right now so that I don’t look down at my phone on the desk and create tech neck. It always comes back to skincare around here, of course :) Click here for the one I recommend.
Hope that helped! If you have any Amazon kitchen favorites that I missed, please leave them in a comment below.
