I manage 42 acres and this weed tool (44% off!) is my right hand man
New York Post may be compensated and/or receive an affiliate commission if you click or buy through our links. Featured pricing is subject to change. I live on 42 acres of Texas land, which sounds romantic until you realize the land does not, in fact, maintain itself. Between maintaining the horse pasture grass, plucking the weeds that creep throughout the vineyard, and tilling the ground of an ever-expanding garden, I spend much of my day pulling nonsense out of the ground. And the only tool I trust to help me do the job is my weed puller, just like the Wilfiks Weed Puller Tool, which is 44% off on Amazon right now. Amazon The Wilfiks Weed Puller Tool features a forged stainless steel V-shaped fork for maximum root grip, a curved metal base for leverage, and an ergonomic soft-grip handle that's gentle on hands, even after hours in the sun. It's ideal for tight spots, raised beds, clay soil, and anywhere you've got weeds trying to start a coup. Built tough for daily use on stubborn land, big or small. It's lightweight but solid, with a forked steel tip that means business. You jab it into the dirt, hook the root, and use the curved metal base to lever out the roots like a boss. Crabgrass? Gone. Thistles? Evicted. Nut sedge? Not on my vineyard. I use it along the edges of raised beds, around baby squash seedlings, even in the rock-hard clay near the pasture gate, and it hasn't bent, dulled, or made me growl in frustration even once. Kendall Cornish's weed puller at work. New York Post The best part? It lets me pretend I'm not actually doing hard labor. It turns a rage chore into something meditative. And for 44% off on Amazon? That's less than a bottle of wine from the grapes I haven't harvested because I was too busy ripping up weeds.

I'm a chef and this is the only countertop oven I trust (and it's $100 off)
New York Post may be compensated and/or receive an affiliate commission if you click or buy through our links. Featured pricing is subject to change. Before this appliance entered my life via a client's kitchen (I'm a part time private chef, FYI), I was just a girl in a too-small apron trying to coax golden edges out of a moody push-pop toaster oven. But now? I slide a sheet pan in, tap a recipe on the app, feeling like I'm launching a NASA satellite, and 30 minutes later I'm pulling out caramelized miso-glazed salmon like it's just another Monday. But today isn't just another Monday. It's the Monday that the Breville Joule Smart Oven Air Fryer Pro went on sale for $100 off on Amazon. For Breville, that's practically unheard of outside of Black Friday or Prime Day extravaganzas. The first time I used the Breville Joule, I air fried za'atar chicken thighs while FaceTiming a client and reorganizing the spice rack. It was like I'd been gifted a sous chef — only this one doesn't breathe or talk or screw up the temperature. The oven syncs to your phone, walks you through recipes with precision-timed steps, and adjusts the cook based on the actual food you're preparing. It's giving clairvoyant. It's giving 'don't worry, I've got it.' Amazon The Breville Joule Smart Oven Air Fryer Pro is an 18-in-1 countertop beast with a patented Element iQ system, which means it uses smart algorithms and sensors to direct power exactly where and when it's needed for optimal cooking. It comes with 13 presets (toast, roast, air fry, dehydrate, etc.) and a companion app that guides you step-by-step, adjusting temperature and timing in real time. Its spacious interior fits a 14-pound turkey or a 9×13' pan, and yes, it's as good at pizza as it is at souffle. Also, it's gorgeous. A chrome monolith that sits smugly on the counter and radiates competence. It bakes. It roasts. It air fries without turning the whole kitchen into a sauna. And, again, it's 20% off on Amazon right now, which feels illegal considering this thing could out-cook half the folks on Top Chef. This article was written by Kendall Cornish, New York Post Commerce Editor & Reporter. Kendall, who moonlights as a private chef in the Hamptons for New York elites, lends her expertise to testing and recommending cooking products – for beginners and aspiring sous chefs alike. Simmering and seasoning her way through both jobs, Kendall dishes on everything from the best cookware for your kitchen to cooking classes that will level-up your skills to new dinnerware to upgrade your holiday hosting.

I'm a private chef, and this (24% off!) KitchenAid mixer is my career's backbone
New York Post may be compensated and/or receive an affiliate commission if you click or buy through our links. Featured pricing is subject to change. I once had a client who wanted handmade pasta and brioche buns on the same day, and I realized: my arm strength was not keeping up with my ambition. Enter the KitchenAid Artisan Series 5 Quart Tilt Head Stand Mixer — the shining, candy-colored workhorse of my dreams — and suddenly I'm making laminated dough like I'm gunning for a James Beard Award and not just trying to impress a hedge funder's wife in the Hamptons. Right now it's 24% off on Amazon, which is code for: get it (especially before Mother's Day!) before some baking influencer drives the price back up. You can get it in every shade from Beetroot to Buttercup, which is just rude (why is it feeling like kitchen appliances are better looking these days than I am?). The tilt-head design means I can throw in ingredients mid-mix like the chaotic cook I am, without disengaging the bowl or stopping everything to wrestle the attachments. Oh, and that pouring shield? Crucial. Not because I care about mess (I don't), but because I'm not trying to explain flour in a client's vintage Moroccan rug again. The 10 speeds go from 'gently folding egg whites' to 'obliterating bagel dough' without sounding like a jet engine. It's quietly powerful, like a hot guy who reads. Amazon The KitchenAid Artisan Series 5 Quart Tilt-Head Stand Mixer is a powerhouse kitchen appliance designed for serious bakers, casual cooks, and everyone in between. Equipped with a durable 325-watt motor and 10 variable speeds, it handles everything from whipping cream to kneading dense bread dough with ease. The tilt-head design allows for easy access to the stainless steel bowl, which holds up to 5 quarts — enough to mix dough for 4 loaves of bread or 9 dozen cookies in one go. It comes with a flat beater, wire whip, dough hook, and a clear pouring shield to reduce splatter during mixing. Built with an all-metal construction and over 20 color options, it's both a workhorse and a statement piece. Plus, it's compatible with over 10 KitchenAid hub-powered attachments, including pasta makers, food grinders, and ice cream machines, turning it into a multifunctional kitchen hub. The 5-quart stainless steel bowl fits enough dough for nine dozen cookies, but it still tucks neatly under a cabinet. It comes with a flat beater, dough hook, and wire whip — meaning I haven't had to use my little hand mixer (or my little hand) since. It's compatible with a ridiculous number of attachments (meat grinder! ice cream maker! pasta roller!). I don't care if you're a seasoned chef or a person who once made banana bread during lockdown — this is the only kitchen flex you'll ever need.
