Answer for question 4486.

[Error: unknown template qotd]I'm assuming this question leaves out major appliances like washing machine, refrigerator and stove (all essential). Of the small appliances, the tea kettle, followed maybe by my little hand blender. It seems to get used more than all the rest. I'm kind of old fashioned and don't bother with the kitchen aid chopper, the blender, or the crock pot very often. I don't even own a coffee machine (though I do have a French press for coffee at work). The one gadget I would like is a new dehydrator, some day, when the current one gives up the ghost (which could be any time now).
