Vitamix blender–amazingly powerful and wonderful for smoothies and soft-serve “ice cream” that's really frozen banana. (Keeps me healthier!)

Kitchenaid Stand Mixer–the classic! Owning one has been an ambition of mine since I helped my Gran make pear honey at age 9 using the grinder attachment on hers, which is older than I am and still works great!

Salad spinner by OXO–no more soggy greens and watered down dressing! And fun, fun, fun to use.

I use it every day for making smoothies. It blends almost instantaneously, and is much MUCH easier to clean than glass. Good stainless steel bar blender. I use it every day for making smoothies.
