1. Microwave
Ok, we admit that its pretty much a common kitchen appliance in most of the household. Yet, the importance of it in modern life is so massive that we couldn’t help but include this product on this list. From baking a five-minute cake and breakfast bread to reheating pre-cooked meals, make instant noodles and even defrost frozen items, microwaves are saviors in modern daily lives. So, if you don’t have one, invest in one now!
2. Induction cooktop
Yea, most of us have gas cooktops at home, but induction cooktops come in extremely handy when you run out of gas all of a sudden or want to cook something really fast without the hassle of open-flames. Their multiple heat settings and timer option come in of great help when you have to multi-task. We recommend this induction cook-top from Prestige.
3. Kitchen Chimney
Chimneys are a life-saver. Not only do they keep the smoke away, but they also keep the kitchen cleaner by eliminating the soot and other sticky mess that accompanies cooking. We know that chimneys are a way of life for most of us. But there are many people, who question the need for a chimney and are seemingly happy with their exhausts. While exhaust fans eliminate the smoke, cleaning them is a task in their own might. So, if you have to make one investment in your kitchen, purchase a chimney. You can thank us later. We love this chimney from Faber.
4. Air-fryers
Most of us love fried delicacies. From piping hot pakodas to french fries, and samosas to even sweet potato fries, most of our evenings get sorted with fried food. But, are they healthy? Not always! So, should you stop having them? Not really! And it is for this reason that you should always have an air-fryer handy in your kitchen with this best kitchen appliances. You might just use it once a week but, trust us, even that amount of usage is worthy enough to purchase this product. We really love this cost-effective Kenstar product to start with.

They allow you to chop vegetables within seconds and keep the mess limited to within the container. A lot of brands from Pigeon to Solimo make this appliance. However, we love the one from Ganesh – at Rs. 250 (always on discount), it is a steal!
