What "neat" kitchen appliances do you own, Veeky Forums? And what do they do?

OG Salton Henrietta, hard boils and poaches up to 7 eggs at a time. Just pierce eggs for hard boiling, or put them in the tray for poaching. Fill with water, plug it in, and wait for the chirp.
So it's basically a hot plate with a bowl and a timer?
I don't have room for crap like this in my kitchen, even if I had use for it, which I don't. Plus any kitchen appliances made of plastic are a pain in the ass to clean anyway.
Pic-related is the only thing I can think of It's a french press I got on clearance for cheap as fuck, and it makes delicious coffee. The cups are too small to be useful to me as I only drink giant mugs of coffee, but I really like the little stirring spoons.

I have the exact same one except it's green. My kids use the cups.

I almost got that one. I spent a ridiculously long time in the store trying to make up my mind.
I wished they'd had an orange one like with this other set I found while looking for a picture.

Jesus fuck don't tell me you are too lazy to poach, let alone boil eggs. That has to be the most american thing I've seen since kraft singles These are neat, best for when friends come round
My favourite tool of late is the good olde mandoline, great for garnishes But the single nicest niche item has to be pic related

That's adorable OP. I can't imagine why eggs need to be pierced though, hrm. But, if were like a protein diet /fit kind of person, it would be in constant use for breakfast.
This isn't an appliance, but one of my antiques that I find adorable and kitschy. It has a resevior on the bottom to put salt and vinegar in to preserve cheese at room temperature. I use it to ripen up bananas or other fruit faster, occasionally as a cookie jar when I have a double batch ;)
