8 Multi-Use Amazon Kitchen Tools That Save Space

Unfortunately, most of us don’t have endless kitchen storage space, so we have to be a little picky about the tools we invest in. After all, nobody likes searching through jam-packed kitchen drawers or fighting for space on a cluttered counter. Luckily, there are plenty of kitchen tools out there that can do the work of multiple gadgets, saving you space in your cabinets, drawers, and on your countertops.

I scoured Amazon to find the best multifunctional tools to help you reclaim some room in your kitchen, including items from Staub, KitchenAid, OXO, and more brands we trust. From a spatula-spoon hybrid that stirs, flips, and serves to a cheese grater that can also slice and chop veggies, these clever, space-saving tools will get the job(s) done.

Staub Spatula Spoon

Staub’s Spatula Spoon is exactly what it sounds like — a convenient spoon and spatula hybrid that’s great for mixing, scooping, scraping, and serving. It has a wooden handle, and the spatula itself is made with heat-safe, BPA-free silicone that’s gentle enough to use on nonstick pans. At 11 inches long, the spatula spoon is a normal size, but the silicone end is much larger than the wooden handle, effectively giving you a larger tool you could use to chop meat, stir gumbo, plate meals, and more.

KitchenAid Multipurpose Shear Set

Scissors are a must in the kitchen. These KitchenAid shears seem commonplace, but they’re packed with hidden features. Not only can the scissors cut, but they also have notches for cracking nuts, opening bottles, stripping herbs, and cutting bones. The dishwasher-safe kitchen shears have stainless steel blades and ergonomic plastic handles, and for $15, you get two pairs and two plastic storage sheaths.  Plus, the scissor set has a whopping 69,000 five-star ratings on Amazon.

Zulay Kitchen Rotary Cheese Grater

Small tools with interchangeable attachments are a great investment if you’re trying to save space. This Zulay Kitchen tool can grate through cheese faster than you can, saving your fingers (and time) in the process. And the same goes for its four other attachments, whether you want to thinly slice cucumber without a mandoline or cut carrots into wavy chips. No need to worry about a hectic cleanup, either: All of the attachments are dishwasher-safe and the device comes with a box for easy storage.

S’well Stainless Steel Salad Bowl Kit

Stop dirtying multiple dishes when making salad and grab this S’well Salad Bowl Kit instead. The 64-ounce stainless steel bowl allows you to prep, store, and transport your salad all in the same compact container. Not only will it keep your greens insulated, but it also comes with a leakproof silicone lid, a handy dressing canister, and a stainless steel tray that keeps salad toppings and utensils away from the moist greens.

Staruby Cooking Tongs

Whether flipping a steak or serving salad, you sometimes need a little more control than a pair of tongs or a spatula can give you. That’s why Staruby’s spatula-like tongs are the perfect compromise. This tool has a lock-and-release mechanism like a traditional pair of tongs, but the blade is much wider and slotted, similar to a turner or spatula. This gives you more control, preventing spills or wasted food. And for $10, you’ll get two of the multifunctional tongs — a 10-inch and a 12.5-inch option.

Fradel Digital Kitchen Food Scale with Bowl

Instead of a traditional flat, rectangular food scale, this one comes with a bowl-shaped scale that nestles around the included detachable stainless steel bowl. So, if you’re baking a cake or making sourdough, you can do all of your weighing and mixing in the same bowl. The scale measures in grams and ounces up to 11 pounds, and the bowl has lines displaying milliliters and ounces.

OXO Good Grips Scoop and Smash

You’ve heard of a potato masher, but what about an avocado masher? Appropriately coined the Scoop and Smash, this OXO kitchen tool has four blades for mashing foods, one of which has a spatula-like squeegee for scraping the sides of the bowl to scoop out a helping of guacamole or potatoes. Whether you’re a fan of avocado toast, egg salad, or taco night, this convenient, durable tool can do it all.

Simpletaste Milk Frother

If you’re short on space, an extensive coffee bar may not be in your future, but this multitasking milk frother just might. Made by Simpletaste, the device can warm, chill, and froth your beverage with its simple controls. The froth function has two levels for warm foam so you can make a light and airy cappuccino or dense foam for latte art. With nearly 7,300 perfect ratings, this is one Amazon product that can seriously upgrade your morning brew.
