My stove is a mediocre Fridgidaire gas range. Gas is nice, but my old electric stove got hotter and the best stove I ever owned was an electric range with two dual ring burners and a convection oven. The best microwave I ever owned was a Montgomery Ward brand that had microwave, convection, and combination settings. Man, I miss that one. I think my ex-wife is still using it.
I like my Kitchen-Aid mixer, 20 years old and still ticking. But could I live without it? Yep. (Mine is the bigger one with the drop down bowl. If I ever replace it, I'm going with the smaller one. The tilting head is more convenient than the drop-bowl.) I am partial to my Kitchen-Aid hand mixer, which can make chocolate chip cookie dough with out burning up. Oh, and my Kitchen-Aid blender is the best blender I have ever owned. (Getting sick of the Kitchen-Aid ad yet? Sorry, but they make stuff that works and lasts.) My food processor? I use it twice a year, maybe three times - could probably borrow the neighbors when I need it.I need very few gadgets. The only odd thing I have that is quite useful is a canning funnel. Can't live without it in canning season. A whisk, some measuring cups and spoons, a couple of heat resistant rubber scrappers. Pretty low key.
