On the counter: a keurig and a breville convection oven. Thats all (and we have a lot of counter space.

In various closets, sight unseen: blender, stick blender, 3 quart IP, 6 quart IP, full size food processor (DH's "I wanna make bread" toy that rarely gets used and I'd like to sell), mini food processor, a coffee grinder for spices, a coffee grinder for dog kibble (mixed with water and peanut butter for frozen kongs), tiny rice cooker, a slow cooker (this probably needs to go), a sous vide immersion stick, hand mixer (a wedding gift from the first marriage in 1975 z avocado green!) and who knows what else.

No toaster. No electric can opener. No air fryer. No standing mixer.

A gifted IP that lives on top of the fridge, and an immersion blender that lives in a drawer. I prefer my counters clear, and there's really nothing I want in addition to what I already have. I use the IP most often to make beans, so maybe once or twice a month. I use the immersion blender infrequently, but when I need it, I really need it.

counter top, coffee pot, electric kettle, ice machine & toaster oven. All get used either daily or at least once a week.

Air fryer & instant pot on a trolley. small crock pot & stick blender in cupboards.

I use the electric kettle often, sometimes I like a hot cup of tea, & I used boiled water, no microwave tea for me. If I am cooking veg or pasta on the stove top, I boil the water in the kettle first. The toaster oven also get used very frequently as it is too hot to use the oven in the wall. The instapot & the air fryer were gifts, & the trolley is out of the way. I love my ice machine, I use it many times every day.

On the counter:
Microwave with convection cooking--use several times daily for reheating human and pet food.
Toaster--use daily.
Food processor--use weekly, and have a space for it.
Mini-chopper--use several times a week.
Vitamix--variable use.
Bread maker--use twice a week. Too cumbersome to move.
KA stand mixer--use 1-2 times/month and 500 times during the winter holidays. Too heavy to move easily.

On the kitchen island:
Ice cream maker with compressor--variable use, and would like to put it somewhere else, but it's too big and heavy to move without help.

Kitchen drawers:
Immersion blender--use a lot during the winter for soup.
Hand mixer--variable use.

In the pantry: Get them out when I need them.
Breadmaker.
Ice cream maker with freezer bowls.
Blender.
Crockpot.
Slow cooker with browning function.
Two electric waffle irons, one Belgian and one regular.
Ebelskiver maker.
Electric knife.

Recently purged:
Ancient crockpot with broken lid.
Electric frying pan.
Cupcake baker.
Rice cooker.
Air fryer.


Note that I live where there are frequent power failures which render my induction range useless, but I can use these small appliances off the generator, and I do a lot of baking and ice cream making.

I have a very old house with a galley kitchen with very little counter space. I have no appliances on the counter top, rather I keep them in a nearby walkin pantry. The microwave and coffee maker stay plugged in and ready to use. I also have a bread maker, stand mixer, crock pot, and toaster, none of them on the counter top. I refuse to buy any other appliances that I can easily live without.

Countertop? A toaster, coffemaker, microwave. That's all there is room for.

In cabinets? Don't get me started. Multiple slow cookers, mixers, choppers, other coffeemakers, bread machine, air fryer, juice squeezer, coffee mill, waffle makers, grills, even an InstaPot. And I'm probably forgetting a few.

How often do you use the Sous vide equipment and for what?
