I don’t know about you, but as I’ve hosted barbecues, planned beach outings, and made trips to the farmers market, I’ve noticed all of the kitchen tools or gadgets I wish I had on hand. From blenders to produce containers, I am always on the lookout for ways to save time or make things easier this season.
It seems I’m not the only one, since Amazon’s Hot New Kitchen Releases section is filled with kitchenware that are practically perfect for these warm summer months. I sifted through all of the fresh pieces to find seven of the top picks that’ll help make your time (and mine) in the kitchen easier and faster, starting at $10.

Freshmage 6-Piece Produce Fridge Container Set
Summer brings fresh produce, and I want to enjoy it for as long as possible. This six-piece container set by Freshmage is a genius solution. It has various-sized containers from 0.3-quart to 6.5-quart for variety. Each container has a removable colander that you can use to rinse off your produce. The colanders go back inside the container to keep the produce lifted, providing airflow and ventilation. The matching lids are airtight with hinged clasps that snap tight. Over 4,000 shoppers have already bought this set. Right now you can get it for $24.
Rycid Divided Serving Tray
This newly released divided serving tray is the perfect way to enjoy snacks on the go, by the pool, or for hosting parties. And it’s already flying off the shelves with over 5,000 units bought in the past month alone. It has eight separate compartments that can be filled with anything like fruits, vegetables, nuts, and candy. The containers can also be removed, so you can use the base on its own. The included lid has hinged clasps on each side to ensure the goodies stay fresh and protected. Plus there’s a handle so you can easily carry it around. “This is the perfect size for a road trip or day at the beach. There is plenty of room for snacks, while it still fits nicely in a tote without taking up too much space,” writes one reviewer. At $15 with an extra coupon, it’s a no-brainer.
Ninja DoubleStack 2-Basket Air Fryer
Counterspace is a premium item in any kitchen, which is why this newly released Ninja Doublestack air fryer is such a cleverly designed item. Unlike other dual basket models, this one has the two baskets stacked vertically, so one is on top of the other one. And not only are you saving space, but you’re also saving time, since there’s plenty of room to fit multiple ingredients with its 8-quart capacity. It has six functions including air fry, air broil, roast, bake, reheat and dehydrate. It’s the perfect solution to get meals done quickly, but it’ll also tame the heat in your kitchen.
Magic Bullet Combo Blender
Blend your favorite smoothies to sip on a warm afternoon or blitz homemade spicy salsa for parties with the new Magic Bullet Combo Blender. The 600-watt motor powers through fruits, vegetables, and ice cream. The low, high, and pulse settings ensure you get the results you want for each recipe. It has a 48-ounce pitcher with a lid that has a removable cap. It also comes with a personal cup that’s ideal for smaller or personal batches of smoothies, dressings, and more. Over 1,000 shoppers have already put this blender in their carts. Grab it now for just $45 and start blending.
TrendPlain Olive Oil Dispenser
This olive oil dispenser is an essential in any kitchen. It offers two genius ways to dispense the oil — push the lever down and it sprays, or tilt it and the spout opens and pours it out. This multifunctional dispenser makes drizzling, misting, and pouring olive oil easy and mess-free. The base is made of durable borosilicate glass and has a wide opening for easy filling. Grab the dark green glass option for $15 to block your olive oil from the sunlight, so it stays fresher.
Songmics Expandable Dish Drying Rack
The right dish rack will make cleaning less of a hassle. And this Songmics Dish Drying Rack has unique design perks to keep dishes and glassware organized. It has stainless steel racks that hold up to 11 plates and 10 bowls. There’s a utensil holder on one side, and a cup holder that holds up to four cups on the other side. And when more room is needed, there’s a tray that expands out to hold pans and cutting boards upright. There’s also an expandable drainage spout that rotates 360 degrees, so water can be drained from any side of the rack into the sink. Not only is it new, but it’s currently 26% off with Prime.
Vvniaa Soft Silicone Tumbler Ice Mold
This ice mold makes cubes that fit perfectly into the tumbler that you use every day. It has three slots that make different-sized cylinder-shaped ice cubes. The first two slots make the perfect size cube to fit in a 20- to 30-ounce tumbler, while the last slot is ideal for a bigger 40-ounce one. Unlike regular ice cubes, these cylinders melt slower and keep to the sides so you’re not trying to push that straw down through a muddle of small cubes. The tray comes with a lid to help the freezing process easier, too. With over 2,000 units purchased in the past month, this genius tool will surely come in handy to keep your summer beverages ice cold.
