10 Shopper-Loved OXO Tools Under $10 at Amazon

Cookware, bakeware, and appliances may be the stars of holiday hosting, but smaller kitchen tools and utensils are the unsung heroes. Because while you could get by icing a cake without an offset spatula or cleaning a potato without a vegetable brush, why would you want to? In our humble opinion, some of the best kitchen essentials come from OXO, particularly from its Good Grips line. Below, we’ve found 10 OXO tools and gadgets for all of those little tasks involved in holiday prep — and they’re all $10 or less.

Good Grips 11-Inch Balloon Whisk

Not only is it amazingly affordable for just $10, but the OXO Balloon Whisk is also our absolute favorite whisk. It’s just the right size and length with a grippy, ergonomic handle for whipping cream, mixing batter, or emulsifying dressing. Boasting more than 19,700 five-star Amazon ratings, this tool makes intense whisking sessions easier.

Good Grips Vegetable Brush

A vegetable brush like this one is convenient to have on hand, especially for making mashed potatoes this Thanksgiving. With more than 15,700 perfect ratings on Amazon, this OXO brush is strong enough for tough scrubbing. Shoppers said they like the tool because it is “easy to clean” and “comfortable to hold.” At only $8, it’s a great value — one customer has even purchased it three times.

Steel Bottle Pourer

This OXO pourer makes it easy to convert any bottle into a ready-to-pour carafe. The ribbed neck allows it to fit in most standard-sized liquor bottles without causing drips, spills, or leaks. And the stainless steel nozzle makes it easy to measure a shot or dose out olive oil. One customer has even gifted the pourer to family and friends, and one former bartender said they’ll probably pass it down to their grandkids.

Good Grips 9-Inch Stainless Steel Locking Tongs

Every cook needs a reliable set of tongs by their side for flipping bacon, grilling veggies, or mixing salad. Like all of its tools, OXO adds clever features to the classic design, like a comfortable, secure spot for your hand to grip either side of the tongs and a locking mechanism for easy storage.

Good Grips Flexible Scoop

If you’re a fan of OXO’s Pop containers, then this $9 scooper is the ideal companion. Not only is it dishwasher-safe, but it’s also flexible so you can fit it into smaller containers. The tool has more than 19,100 five-star ratings on Amazon, making for an impressive overall rating of 4.9 stars. Whether they were scooping ice, sugar, or pet food, customers love how “lightweight,” “sturdy,” and “easy to grasp” it is.

Good Grips Silicone Small Spatula

We love silicone utensils for their durability and versatility, and this small OXO spatula is a classic example. It comes in four sizes, but the 9.3-inch option can do everything from scraping batter to getting the last bit of peanut butter out of the jar. One customer even said it’s the best spatula they’ve ever owned: “I’ve been through a lot of spatulas, this is the only one I’ve ever owned that didn’t eventually get burned or discolored, rinses off easily, and isn’t too bendy like others.”

Good Grips Wooden Citrus Reamer

Fresh citrus is an ingredient that can’t be faked, no matter if you’re making a fizzy cocktail or lemon chicken. This handheld citrus reamer made from beech wood is an easy and efficient way to quickly juice lemons, limes, and even oranges. “It’s a sturdy, no-nonsense tool that promised to make juicing a breeze without the need for bulky, hard-to-clean electric juicers,” said one customer.

Cocktail Strainer

Whether you’re the designated mixologist of any party or are hosting for the first time this holiday season, a cocktail strainer will make mixing drinks a lot easier. This stainless steel one from OXO is dishwasher-safe and has a convenient finger rest to prevent spills. Even if you already have one, this crucial barware piece makes an excellent host gift.

Good Grips Cupcake Icing Knife

Whether you’re a beginning baker or cupcake connoisseur, this mini offset spatula is perfect for icing smaller baked goods. With more than 4,100 perfect ratings, the knife has just the right amount of flexibility for even, level frosting. One customer said it was “not too heavy, and a big enough handle so my hand didn’t cramp.”

Steel Angled Measuring Jigger

This angled jigger improves upon a standard piece of barware with easily readable measurements and a convenient pouring spout. Even beyond mixology, the miniature measuring cup will come in handy for baking and cooking. It’s no wonder that customers called it “indestructible” and “life-changing.”
