In the past, I didn't like shopping very much, but after I had my own small home, I was most keen on all kinds of "buying". With all kinds of good wishes, I always start some household products that can bring me happiness, especially small appliances.

But unfortunately, after many valuable small appliances are bought back, they are used only a few times and are basically idle to eat ash! Such as floor mopping machine, weight loss shaking machine, treadmill, electric cake pan, bean sprout machine... And so on.

The reason is that the expectation is too high, or the publicity of businesses is exaggerated, inconvenient to use, and the effect is unsatisfactory.

For example, the netizen upstairs didn't believe in evil. As a result, the treadmill was idle and ate ash in less than a month. So what kind of small appliances are worth staying? My principle is: high frequency of use, simple and easy to use, and the best price is not too expensive.

To tell the truth: I've used so many small appliances. These four are really reliable. The others are like goods!

Egg Cooker
It's cheap, easy to use and often used. It's the egg cooker.

One layer can boil eggs, and the other layer can put corn, steamed bread, steamed stuffed buns, etc. in this way, the child's breakfast can be solved, and it will not be dry burned regularly.

There are not so many fancy and impractical functions, that is, the simple steaming function. The knob mechanical timing is more durable and simpler than the computer-controlled one.

Although it is an egg boiler, it has quite rich functions. Steamed dumplings, steamed buns, sweet potatoes, taro, and even hot pot meatballs can be easily handled.

It is small and exquisite, does not occupy a place, and the operation is very simple. It will be clean after washing. At a price of less than 100 yuan, this egg cooker may be the most valuable small household appliance I have bought so far.

Constant temperature electric kettle

There are many brands of thermostatic electric kettle, but I still prefer this kind of operation directly on the handle of the kettle body. This kind of mobile phone app looks high-end, but it is actually cumbersome. The biggest advantage of constant temperature electric kettle is that it can meet the water needs of different scenes of family life.

Whether it's boiling water at 100 ℃, tea at 85 ℃, warm boiled water at 55 ℃ and milk powder at 45 ℃, it can be obtained by pressing one key at four common water temperatures, and it can also maintain the constant temperature function within 30 minutes. It's easy to renew the cup without waiting.

The operation is very simple. It can be set by touching the keys on the handle, and the large LCD real-time display is clear at a glance.

The detail design is also very considerate. The double-layer heat insulation and anti scalding design, the boiling delay dechlorination function, together with the food grade 304 stainless steel liner and pot cover, ensure the safety of water. There is also a "one minute pot lifting memory" function, which can be picked up and put down without resetting.

With it, it is convenient and fast to fill children with warm water and make their own tea every day.

Yogurt machine

For families with children, the yogurt machine is really very practical. Because the yogurt bought in the supermarket is very thin, and there are various additives. The self-made yogurt is not only delicious, but also has no additives. Low sugar yogurt is much healthier than those bought outside.

Both the operation and raw materials are very simple. The constant temperature of 40 ℃ does not need to be adjusted. Directly pour in the bagged milk sold in the supermarket, add some white sugar and start up with lactic acid bacteria. There is no need for any technical content at all.

Usually do it before going to bed at night. It's good to get up the next morning. It usually takes about 10 hours. However, if the time is longer, the yogurt will be thicker and children like to eat more. In this way, they can go to school after eating in the morning!

The taste is the same as that sold outside, and the amount of a bag of milk is equivalent to two old yogurt sold in the supermarket. It's much more affordable! Of course, the most important thing is health and rest assured. You can also use a yogurt machine to make noodles. The constant temperature of 40 ℃ is just right.

Air fryer oven

For fried food, it is estimated that many people love and hate it. They love its crisp and sweet mouth and hate its high calorie greasy fat. The air fryer perfectly solves this problem.

In fact, the air fryer is also one of the ovens. For a family of three, the new air fryer oven I use combines frying and baking, has rich functions and saves space. It's OK to bake bread and make popcorn.

The operation is also very simple. The knob design can be done with a slight twist. The capacity of 15L is also enough for our small family.

Usually fried chicken nuggets, chicken fillets, French fries and baked sweet potatoes are quite good. You can make delicious fried food without adding a drop of oil. It's delicious and healthy.

There are also many gourmet people on the Internet to share the recipes of the air fryer, which is also very easy to follow. It can be said that there is an air fryer at home, which can unlock a lot of cooking skills.

To sum up experience, if you don't want to waste, you have to evaluate your living habits and internal needs before purchasing a small item. < strong > you buy it because of your living needs, not because you want to use it to change yourself < / strong >, because it's really difficult
