It's that time of the year again: Our editors are going to tell you the Prime Day kitchen deals to shop. We've compiled a master list of the best deals, which you should totally check out, but we've been up since the early hours of the morning browsing the kitchen and home section of the site, compiling our own wish lists. If you've ever wondered what actual food and cooking editors buy on this day -- the people who spend all of our time testing products and developing recipes -- this list is your chance to know.

This year, our editors are interested in upping their coffee games with fancy milk frother that also warm the milk. Refreshing their stained and torn kitchen towels. And even springing for a fancy compressor ice cream maker. Here's what our editors are shopping for this Amazon Prime Day; we hope that you can find some inspo for your cart, too.

Read about more of our favorite Prime Day kitchen deals:

Though I bought it with the intention of cooking a great many things (beans! grains! polenta! greens!) for the past couple years I have used my Instant Pot for one thing and one thing only -- rice. Which led to the inevitable existential question: Why do I have an Instant Pot and not a rice cooker? There is no good answer to this. So I am patiently waiting for the right rice cooker to go on sale. Then I can say farewell to my Instant Pot -- we had some good times, sort of! -- and free up the full cabinet it's been occupying. Also, I'll finally be able to make deputy food editor Hana Asbrink's rice-cooker shiitake salmon. -- Emma Laperruque, associate director of cooking

When I make tea and am visiting my parents, I allow myself to live in luxury and use their electric kettle. I can get the exact temperature I need to brew a cup of tea and it turns off when it's done boiling and saves me a scalded pot. The funny thing is that throughout college I always had a cheap, but functional kettle to boil water in. In adulthood, however, for some reason I have decided to live on the edge and either boil water in a small pot or stick a mug full of water in the microwave. After a few too many mouth burns, the time has come for me to invest in a kettle and if the Amazon Prime gods allow, I want it to be this very good looking, very functional one from Kettle. -- Kate Kassin, editorial operations manager

As someone who is decidedly not a planner and whose freezer is constantly full, I've had my eye on the Lello Musso Lussino for years. I loved it the moment I used it at a friend's place. With its built-in compressor, there's no need for pre-freezing and it's the closest you can get to near instant ice cream gratification. It consistently makes ice cream from a cold base in under 20 minutes, always a good thing when it comes to ice cream making (the faster the churn, the smaller the ice crystals and smoother the end result). Buying one is cheaper than a vacation to Italy and that might well be the rationale behind my purchase. -- Shilpa Uskokovic, senior test kitchen editor

I live in a small rowhouse in Philadelphia that is completely impractical for storing a grill. But lately I am thinking that what I might actually use, and have room for, is an Oona Koda pizza oven. Will I make pizza with it? Maybe. What I really am excited about is the promise of searing heat dancing around trays of flame-licked vegetables, smoky fish, and blistered chicken, without the risk of setting off my smoke alarm indoors. If it goes on sale for Prime Day I might just have to take the leap.

I haven't owned a full-size blender since I was in college, and I think I've finally reached a breaking point with my dinky little 10-year-old bullet-style model. Vitamix is the biggest name in blenders for a reason, and I have my eyes on the brand's Explorian model for its low profile and lower price tag than some of its other models (even lower now at over $100 off). I do still love a bullet blender for my morning smoothies, though, so I'm swapping my current model for the one that associate commerce director Emily Johnson raves about. -- Alaina Chou

If I could have only one blender, it would be an immersion blender. They're so versatile and convenient, and even some of the more affordable models do a great job of blending and puréeing. Still, I'm ready for an upgrade, so I'm thrilled to see this powerful Vitamix model on sale. I've already added it to my cart. -- Emily Farris

While I already have a full-size food processor (inherited from my grandma and probably from the 1980s), it's kind of a pain to take out and is often too big for the tasks my solo cooking endeavors require of it. This Prime Day I've got my eyes on a mini version that will be perfect for all my small batch pestos, nut butters, and summer gazpachos. Plus, it comes in a pistachio green that'll match my set of KitchenAid mixing bowls (which, BTW, are also on sale). -- A.C.

I have a subpar electric rental stove, so I'm always flirting with the idea of getting an induction burner and pretending I'm cooking for one of those hands-and-pans Buzzfeed videos of a bygone internet era. Plus, induction cooking is some of the most accurate, quickest, and environmentally sound you can do. This one won our product test and is 27% off. -- E.J.

On the last prime day i bought this milk frother or my wife, she used to use it to heat/froth cold almond milk instead of having to microwave her coffee. now she makes matcha lattes in it every day, you just put everything in and push a button. -- Dan Siegel, senior director of creative development

It's a long story I won't get into, but my travel Nespresso machine (I guess that's another long story I won't get into) was involved in an accident and is no longer functional. It's a bummer but it's provided an opportunity to downsize my travel espresso setup. I know a lot of coffee nerds who love the Aeropress, so since it's 30% off today, I'm going to give it a try. -- Emily Farris

Yes, we're all obsessed with that Big Dumb Cup, but what about Small Dumb Cups? I've coveted these mini Yeti cups ever since my coworker Carina first sipped from one on a Zoom call. I have a well-documented problem drinking coffee fast enough before it gets cold. I know, espresso is a very small quantity of liquid deliberately designed to be taken in a single gulp. I'm a sipper! I'm sorry! These combine my love of all things mini and insulated cups, and they're 20% off now. -- Emily Johnson

For all my work with the dozens of espresso machines I've tested (I've still got 4 residing in my basement) I don't yet own a bottomless portafilter. If you don't have one and aren't familiar with them, they replace the spouted portafilters that come with your espresso machine. They're good because they let you see how the extraction is going when you pull a shot. A good sign it's going well is when the streams of coffee quickly converge into one. If you're grabbing a new portafilter for your espresso maker, just make sure you get one that's the right size. I need a 58mm, but most Breville machines, just as an example, will need a 54mm size. -- Noah Kaufman

I adored by my big Boos cutting board, but tragically it met its end when it split in half. That's not a comment on the quality of the board -- it was 11 years old and got knocked on to the floor by an energetic child -- but it does prove that nothing is indestructible. I know they tend to go on sale during the big Amazon events and true to form, the exact board that split is 20% off. Good news for me. - N.K.

I'm 32 years old and new to actually...owning an apron and taking the time to put it on before I cook. Turns out, it does great things in terms of preventing flour and egg and grease splattering on your clothing while you're baking a birthday cake. Who knew? Certainly not me. Beloved apron brand Hedley and Bennett has a sale going on right now, both on their site and on Amazon, so I'm going to treat myself to a second apron to celebrate this new stain-preventative lifestyle I've adopted. I won't personally be purchasing the psychedelic Grateful Dead apron that's currently on sale, but I think it goes hard and someone should. -- E.J.

I don't know why it's taken me so long to get a salad spinner -- everybody at work is obsessed with them and can't stop singing their praises. According to my coworkers, there's no better way to dry off tender herbs and lettuces than with the power of centripetal motion. Compared to scrunching leafy greens up with a dish cloth or paper towel (which is what I typically do), using a salad spinner keeps everything perky and sog-free. Hooray for salad that's not wet! -- Wilder Davies

I refresh my kitchen towels every year on Amazon Prime Day. The burned, stained, and torn flour sack towels get relegated to bathroom cleaning and in comes a fresh new set for the kitchen. These utilitarian guys can be used for drying your hands, yes, but they're also a powerful kitchen tool. Use them to dry herbs, to grab hot pans, and to shape and cover dough. And that's not all. They're essentially washable cheese cloths: wrap tofu, shredded zucchini, or beets in these things and squeeze all of the moisture out for maximum crisp. P.S., I think we figured out why my old set is stained. -- E.J.

File this under "I was putting in an Amazon order today anyway." I tend not to get too excited about things like cleaning products, but when I used the geranium all-purpose spray from Mrs. Meyers it was the first time I thought "oh, I really like this scent." It's perpetually unavailable on the ground at big box stores in my area, and no, it's not technically on sale for Prime Day, but it's also already pretty inexpensive. By this time on Thursday my counters will be smelling like flowers. - N.K.

I already have this Courant multi-device charging stand in my home office, but I'm buying a second for my kitchen while it's on sale. It works great as a phone-holder so I can follow along with my favorite BA recipes while I'm cooking, and it can charge two MagSafe devices at once. It's also chic and space-efficient -- two nonnegotiables for anything that goes into my kitchen. -- Carina Finn

My kitchen doesn't have the best air circulation, so smells tend to linger long after I've done the dishes and cleared the table. As much as I love my house to smell like food, sometimes it can be a bit much. After more fragrant meals I like to move my air purifier into the kitchen to freshen things up faster, but now that this purifier is on sale for Prime Day I've decided to spring for a full-time kitchen air purifier. That way I don't have to lug my other one from room to room. The Levoit purifier is small but powerful, capable of filtering over 1000 square feet of space. -- W.D.

Everyone knows All-Clad makes some of the best stainless steel cookware, a fact plenty of our editors will attest to. I like to keep my cookware collection relatively lean, but All-Clad's prestige has had me ruminating if I should add one or two pieces -- namely this two-piece set of pans that's currently 22% off. -- M.W.

If I were to identify as anything, it would be as a "beverage goblin." The only way to maintain my body's equilibrium is to constantly be sipping on something bubbly, something caffeinated, or something boozy (or all three, in three separate cups). The habit has gotten out of hand. It is difficult to close the crisper drawers in my fridge because they are overflowing with seltzer, ginger beer, hard cider, and the occasional canned rosé. A separate beverage cooler would solve all my problems, but it's the kind of appliance that has always seemed too luxurious to justify -- the kind of unattainable status symbol reserved for Kardashian-level wealth. That was the case until I came across this well-priced model from Antarctic Star. It has a modest footprint and can easily house my bevy of bevvies, with the added benefit of freeing up the crisper drawer for its intended purpose. And at 26% off, who am I to refuse such a deal? -- Megan Paetzhold, senior visuals editor

I always keep a drawer in my fridge stocked with "fun drinks," and Ghia's canned spritzes are my go-to. I'm stocking up on their combo pack, which comes with four flavors of not-too-sweet canned cocktails, while it's on sale for Prime Day. -- C.F.

For years I've made do with freezer ice trays. But the fact is, ice cube trays are flawed. They spill, causing icebergs to form on the bottom of my freezer; they take up valuable real estate (I honestly would love it if all of my cabinets were freezers); and my partner never remembers to refill them. Next time he asks for an after-work drink, instead of glaring at him passive-aggressively, I'd love to amble over to our countertop ice maker, scoop, shake, and relax into the evening. The thing is, the good ones are eyebrow-raisingly expensive. I'm going to need a deep Prime Day discount to justify the purchase. -- Joe Sevier

I'm fully on board the prebiotic soda train at this point, and Poppi is my personal favorite brand in the space. I consider having a fridge stocked with fun bevs the peak of luxury, so I'm taking advantage of this 33% off deal to afford myself a taste of the highlife. This variety pack includes my favorite flavor (Doc Pop) and my roommate's (Grape) along with some other classics like Cherry Cola and Orange Cream. -- A.C.

I love these can-shaped glass cups for smoothies, iced coffees, and batched cocktails. They're simple but chic, and extremely on sale -- so if one breaks or goes missing during a holiday party, I won't be devastated. -- C.F.
