What are your unconventional kitchen tools/utensils you were skeptical of at first but feel you can’t live without?

Steel tea pot - I drink a pot every day but last couple pots were both glass and only last a couple months before breaking (both my fault) so upgraded to steel and so far my clumsiness hasn't yet managed to break it

If you are into tea, you might want to consider an electric kettle with variable temperature. Nothing is more of a shame than burning good leaves or having to be limited to leaves that can handle a near boil. It’s tricky & a futz to watch a thermometer for boiling water to a specific temperature for your tea—especially if you are relying on that cup to help your mood & concentration.

Yep! I have a Cosori kettle that's been working great (and outlasted my first two pots lol)

You must be Elizabeth from Keeping Up Appearances!

This! I recently got a steel French press and it's fantastic! The best part is I'll have to drop it off a cliff to break it.

Having my tea pot for about 6-7 years now made of glass.
Mind you I am not using it 24/7 though.
