My wife would not be without our slow cooker.
Although I thing it must drive our dog mad smelling meat bubbling away all day in the house.
We use a pannini press / toasty maker a lot. Much better than the old style breville ones. We use it for toated sandwiches, eggy bread, scotch pancakes and even cooking bacon when camping.
I like my Bialleti milk frother. Great for frothing milk for a cappucino or making the most amazing frothy hot chocolates (which my kids love).
Someone mentioned knife sharperners, I have a Gerber pocket sharpener that lives in the kitchen drawer. It was meant for my Gerber Suspension, but I give the kitchen knives a quick freshen up with it now and again.
My wife likes using her cake-pop maker. It is like a sandwich toaster, but the top and bottom have small hemispherical holes that you fill with cake mixture and its cooks mini cake balls. Then we dip then in chocolate and decorate with sprinkles. Yum. And no calories.... honest.
Another cake device, an icing syringe. Much better then a piping bag, so easy to create thick and even swirls of icing on cup cakes. Then when done, shove a finger in the nozzle to rescue the last bit of icing and chuck it in the dishwasher.
