Your outdoor space is too small for a grill, and you don't want to fill your house with smoke, but you still want to get those delicious sear marks. This indoor grill grills proteins and veggies with ease, but the smoke control system ensures you don't inhale soot while you cook. In addition to the grill plate, it comes with a flat-top griddle (smash burgers anyone?), and the spacious cooking surface can hold up to six steaks at a time. As a bonus, it comes with a food thermometer, so you can get accurate results every time and stay mosquito-free. It's rarely sold for less.
“I honestly prefer the meat and chicken I cook on it over the outdoor grill,” one shopper admitted. “The temperature is well controlled and the meat stays juicy. It's easy to use and I don't have to stand outside in the summer heat. I love the griddle function. Boneless chicken breasts are so tender and tasty when cooked on it! Wow!”

This popular BPA-free Brita reduces copper, cadmium, and mercury levels to improve the taste of your water and minimize the taste and odor of chlorine (ugh).

What's great about this set is that each bowl comes with a lid, so if you need to make bread dough and let it rise, for example, you can cover it without wasting plastic wrap. Plus, any leftover bread can just be tossed in the fridge, and at $4 per bowl, they're a steal.
“It's much lighter and easier to handle than a regular mixing bowl,” said the home baker. “Before, I felt like my life was at risk every time I dropped a ceramic bowl. I highly recommend it.”
