My husband knows exactly what our kitchen needs and would never buy something I didn't need. We don't have much storage and everything has to count and be a multi-tasker. And my husband will buy very good quality as we only buy once so make it count. He's quite good in the kitchen himself so he really does know a lot about it. We designed our kitchen together.

I don't know if it's a "gadget" but I got us a George Forman grill which we used only a few times in the last three years, also a rice cooker that sits there that I bought on HSN...

Of course! Isn't that part of my job? I buy her a kitchen gadget that she'll never use and she returns the favor by buying me a tie that I'll never wear. lol

Guilty as charged.

Yes...she has one "juice extractor", one "orange juice maker", one "salad slicer, or salad maker"...and a few more gadgets that are only collecting dust somewhere around our apartment.

Nope, but my wife loves 'practical' kitchen gadgets, or at least those she deems practical, lol. She is quick to point them out to me with a no nonsense comment of "I want one of those". I try to make note of such items, but usually pass them along to my father-in-law, who is keen to buy such items for her for Christmas. We actually have very few gadgets that she doesn't actually use. She's not one to fall for things like 'salad spinners' and the like. She either chooses items like new rubber spatulas and wooden spoons or horribly expensive cookware and knives that cost over $100 each, OUCH! She uses them, though, and is a most excellent cook. As long as I get to be the recipient of her fare, I am happy to oblige her. :-)

My husband has never bought me a kitchen gadget its my job to buy them and then never use them.

Buying useless kitchen gadgets is a woman's job. Women have been fascinated by things that make houserunning simpler since the first one used a digging stick and showed it to her friend.

Having a kitchen is a "gadget" my wife cannot, will not, and should not use. I'm the cook in the house.

My husband and I BOTH buy so many useless gadgets that its pitiful. Multiple icecream makers, 7 kinds of slicer/dicers, tablecloth weights, 2 foreman grills, 3 electric knives, some sort of funky kitchen shears with 2 blades on top and one on bottom,(don't know what they're for but by golly I have two sets!)jello molds galore, THE SpatuWiskTongs, egg slicers, you name it!I have sort of learned to control the urge since we moved into a smaller house. Of corse, it's easy to get rid of some of them because hubby is a costume designer, and quite frequently I will be admiring a new costume, and then realize that he has raided my kitchen for parts. Lost several jello molds, funnels, and countless utensils that way! GGRrrr. (But my kitchen has really started stacking up since he became ill. I guess I'll have to resort to yard sales to purge all the junk in the furure. )
