    Promising review: "I purchased two of these. I make the egg muffins in four minutes, then brush them with butter/margarine. They taste great and I make one to two dozen at a time. I put them each in a prefect portions bag, then back in the muffin bag, then freeze them. The butter makes sure they are moist when you heat them up after freezing, and these are so handy top pop in the microwave for a very quick breakfast." –Galeh

    Meats and produce can last for weeks to even months/years when they're vacuum sealed and frozen!

    Promising review: "I've been using the Foodsaver systems for years, and love that I can cook extra and freeze it for leftovers for a busy day. One thing I just started doing to store leftovers – once sealed I flatten them and lay them stacked in the freezer. That way, there is less bulk, and it makes for more freezer room. This model is my favorite, I love the changes they made; especially adding the pulse option, and a window to see the end of the bag you're sealing. Much better then guessing. The price is a little steep, however if you faithfully use it, you get your money's worth." –Posterpup

    Walmart

    I have one of these and it completely rules. I use it to make perfect eggs with minimal effort after a run almost every morning.

    Promising review: "I can make hard boiled eggs, but poached or soft boiled never turns out right. Although I was skeptical, I bought this due to the low price. I make a lot of hard boiled eggs for my dog, and I eat eggs every day, so I figured it was worth trying. I cannot live without it now. The eggs come out perfectly every time – soft, hard, poached, even an omelet! And the best part – the shells almost fall off. Not one hard boiled egg has been shredded while peeling. The shells are soft and easy to peel. And clean up? Except for the omelet, they cook in the shell. No cleanup except wiping it off! No mess at all." –PeanutsMom

    Promising review: "I love having a food scale. This Ozeri food scale works perfectly. It is black and super thin. It doesn't take up much space to store in my kitchen cabinets, which is a huge plus. The scale is digital and touch screen. The touch is pretty sensitive, and works easily. You can change the units of measurements for fluid ounces, grams, and ounces. It has a Tare button which allows you to zero out the scale. This is great if you are using a bowl to measure ingredients in. it also works well if you need to add multiple ingredients into a bowl. You can tare between ingredients to get accurate measurements. This scale will also automatically turn off if there is no activity. This is great so you don't accidentally use the battery. I have found that I pull it out to use all the time now." –STAYLAW

The similar thermometers I priced were more expensive and offered no additional features." –Asher

    Promising review: "The juicer is strong and the process of getting juice out from my lemons is quick and pleasant. Clean up was also a breeze, I simply ran the plastic parts under the faucet. The juicer is well built and runs smoothly. I am thrilled because my lemon tree is full right now, and with my new juicer I will be able to freeze lemon juice to use for a later time. I would definitely recommend this to anyone!" –rcazares98

    Walmart

    The best part is you get to decide what ingredients are used. For example, you can substitute sugar for maple syrup!

    Promising review: "This is the only way we eat ice cream anymore! The ice cream just tastes better, it's simple and creamy. The recipes are easy to make, and the machine is easy to use, which is perfect for kids. The machine is easily cleaned, and I would highly suggest reading the manual fully before using. I thought I could skip reading the manual, but it had some helpful hints and tips for using the machine. For example, freeze the base and mixing blade at least overnight and keep the ice cream mixture in the fridge at least overnight. The colder all of these things are the better it mixes. The recipes are easy to personalize as well. My husband like butterfingers, my youngest likes cookies and cream, and my oldest likes plain vanilla. Once you cut up the extras (candies) just throw them in the mixer towards the end, and it's like a blizzard." –LoveLife

    Get it from Walmart for $59.95.

    Walmart

    Having dinner ready and waiting at home has never been easier.

    Promising review: "This is the most versatile kitchen appliance I have ever owned. It wasn't the plan, but now I use it every day. I set it up at night to have (quietly) cooked breakfast grains waiting for me when I awake. Then set it up to cook my dinner while I'm out. There are online recipes, blogs, user discussions, etc. that you can make use of. Overall, I think the presets are fun to use but are more than the typical user needs. The manual setting alone would do. The rice setting cooks rice perfectly, and can be used to cook other grains such as millet, as well. I've owned other traditional pressure cookers with the hissy rockers and fussy seals, this is so much better than those." –ExceptionallyLongNickname

    Get the six-quart size from Walmart for $79.

    Do a happy dance in your well-stocked kitchen!
