Our Place Large Wonder Oven

Both my mom and I have been curious to try out the Our Place Wonder Oven after reading numerous glowing reviews, and now that it’s on sale, there’s a good chance that one (or both) of us will purchase it. The versatile appliance can truly do it all — including air-frying, reheating, baking, broiling, toasting, and roasting — and it looks great on the countertop. It also has a stamp of approval from our editors. 

Viking 14-Piece German Steel Knife Block Set

My mom has been looking to invest in new, high-quality knives, and now that this Viking 14-piece set is 50% off, the deal is too good to pass up. It includes a chef’s knife, bread knife, carving knife, utility knife, paring knife, six nonserrated steak knives, kitchen shears, all neatly organized in a wood block with a sharpening steel. One shopper raved that the set is “perfect for everyday use,” adding that it “looks lovely” in their kitchen and “doesn’t take up too much room.”

My mom’s upping her drinkware game by shopping deals on elegant crystal Bordeaux wine glasses from Reserve and frozen drinkware from Host for outdoor entertaining. Other items on her shopping list include an $11 whiskey ice cube tray, which she could also use to keep lemonade and iced tea cool, as well as a new statement-making bottle chiller, on sale for $54.

Host Wine Freeze Cooling Cup, Set of 4

I purchased the Host Beer Freeze Cooling Cup as a Father’s Day gift for my dad, and my mom has been interested in trying out the wine glasses ever since. Now that a set of four is on sale, she immediately added it to her cart. The stemless BPA-free plastic cups are insulated with an active cooling gel. After popping them in the freezer for a few hours, the wine glasses are guaranteed to make sipping a Chenin Blanc or Chardonnay during the summer even more enjoyable, without watering it down with ice. 

Viski Admiral Crystal Cocktail Shaker in Stainless Steel

My mom loves the look of this Viski cocktail shaker. The crystal, vintage-inspired design will elevate any bar space. The dishwasher-safe shaker has a built-in stainless steel strainer with a silicone seal so you don’t make a sticky mess.

Best Nordstrom Tabletop and Entertaining Deals

My mom prioritizes kitchen and tabletop essentials like this Viking steak knife set during the annual sale, but she never misses an opportunity to save on entertaining pieces she might have skipped over at full price. To upgrade outdoor summer events, she’s picking up this waterproof picnic blanket and double drink dispenser — both 33% off.

Twine Acacia Wood Rotating Charcuterie Board with Ceramic Dishes

While there’s nothing wrong with a basic wooden charcuterie board, this rotating model brings any entertaining setup to the next level. My mom particularly loves the separated compartments and the two removable ceramic dishes for adding olives, dips, or fruit to the board.  

Gharyan Stoneware Stoneware Round Serving Platter

My mom loves to host, and she’s always adding new serveware and elegant platters to her collection. That’s why this serving platter from Gharyan Stoneware caught her eye. Since ceramists handcraft each piece, the 1.6- x 16-inch dishes slightly differ, making each one unique.
