A set of fun, colorful vinyl coasters so your morning cup of joe doesn't leave a ring on your beautiful wood dining table.

A 12-piece Caraway cookware set so you'll have what you need to make all those saved recipes from your late-night scrolling. This set has a nontoxic coating and is oven safe — which makes cooking infinitely easier. And the fact that these last so fricking long (years and years!) makes them well worth the investment.

An electric potato peeler that Dennis from It's Always Sunny would've loved for his apples. It's a hands-free operation, so you can prep other ingredients while this takes care of the potatoes, and the nonslip grip keeps it from tipping over, even when it's really working. Plus, it has two spare blades conveniently stored in the base, making sure you're always ready for your next round of peeling.
