Must-Have Kitchen Appliances for Busy Working Professionals

For Whom/What:

busy working couple who prefer to eat at home

Budget:

$$-$$$

Requirements:

reliable

great warranty (or better yet, doesn't require service)

make restaurant-quality food

already own a blender, so no blender recommendations

Extra Details:

What is the kitchen appliance you can't imagine being without? My husband and I are all about making quality food, but we don't want to spend all day cooking. We already have a Vitamix blender that gets used almost every day from breakfast smoothies to hearty soups for sick days. So besides a blender, what appliances do you swear by? Other beverage maker recommendations, such as coffee machines are welcome.

Breville Smart Oven/Air Fryer for me. It's essentially a smaller oven that doubles as an air fryer with preset functions like pizza, toast, roast, dehydrate, etc., so I find myself reaching for this way more than a full-size oven. 

There is a smarter, app-powered and more expensive version, too, but don't buy it. This one works just fine and is probably less buggy.
