It seems like I've overlooked the amazing powers of the auto-spice measuring system in the past. I've seen too many knock offs of this system that simply doesn't measure up I guess. With the Auto-Measure spice carousel you can store and access 12 favorite spices quickly and easily. You can also dispense spices in 1/4 tsp. increments — no measuring spoons needed. The auto spice carousel is fully stackable for easy storage of 24, 36 or 48 different spices. You can even mount it under a cabinet or shelf. For freestyle cooking, you can also use the convenient shaker top or the large opening for volume pouring.

The new stainless steel utensil holder with spoon rest has three compartments for organizing kitchen tools. A shallow front compartment holds shorter tools, like can openers. Two deep compartments neatly store tall items. A detachable spoon rest is always in reach at the front of the holder. The only bummer? The utensils aren't included. :-( Oh well that does make sense but I do love the brushed chrome spatula.
- includes detachable stainless steel spoon rest
- compartments for small and large utensils
- slim oval design fits more tools in less space

We love to froth our milk. We simply take a shot or two of skim milk, nuke it in the microwave for 34 seconds, and then froth away. The Aerolatte Milk Frother is the next generation of milk frothers with a satin finish; no pumping, no propellers and definitely no steam. The Aerolatte's innovative whisk head takes just 30 seconds to whisk milk into rich, thick foam. So if you add the microwave, and then the froth - it's about 1 minute for great cappuccino without having to heat up your espresso machine frother and much less mess, and it even includes batteries.

What's not to love about a burner with no burn? Perfect ramen noodles - that's what! Odd things from Japan has found the only Ramen noodle timer we know of in existence.
This kitchen burner-shaped device is an "Instant Noodles Timer". Once you poured the boiling water, you place the cup on the timer, which automatically shows a red light on. Then you turn the handle into either 3 or 4 minutes and wait (since we are in Japan though, I think there should be options like "3 minutes and 6 seconds"). When the time has passed, you'll hear a chime announcing that your noodles are ready.I wondered if people really purchased this, and found out that it was very popular, to the extent that it was the top product in July. I also investigated if it could be used for other purposes but ... nope, it's only for cup noodles!

You've come to expect automatic faucets on your travels - why not in your kitchen? We think this is a killer way to keep your faucet clean while you cut up meat (especially nasty chicken!).
The EZ Faucet - EZF001C™ has a built-in infrared sensor that turns your water on automatically when you put your hands in front of it, making it easy to use for children, seniors, or just busy people whose hands are full or dirty. The EZ Faucet is powered by four AAA batteries (sold separately).
The Center for Disease Control (CDC) agrees that hand washing is an important means of preventing the spread of infection. Keeping your faucet clean and avoiding touching it are smart ways to prevent cross-contamination. The EZ Faucet also conserves water by stopping water from running when not in use, a smart idea for any home with kids!
