The 8 Best Amazon Kitchen Trends, Per a Food Writer

There’s always something new to discover at Amazon, including countless kitchen gadgets and appliances that make cooking feel so much easier. With so many new products already popping up in 2025, some shoppers are struggling to determine which ones they should buy — which is where I come in. I test kitchenware for a living, and I picked out the eight trending kitchen products that are really worth the hype.

Amazon has hundreds of new releases to choose from, so I narrowed it down to the best of the best. Shop my favorite new kitchen picks from Lodge, Le Creuset, Cuisinart, and KitchenAid.  Prices start at just $15.

Lodge Carbon Steel Skillet, 8-Inch

Did you know that Lodge makes cookware that isn’t made from cast iron? Neither did I. This carbon steel skillet is a great lightweight alternative. It comes pre-seasoned with natural soybean oil, so it’s ready to use as soon as you take it out of the box, and it’s just as sturdy as I expect from Lodge cookware. At 8 inches, it’s the perfect size for appetizers and individual entrees, while its roomy handles make for easy handling. 

Le Creuset Enameled Cast Iron Shallow Heart Cocotte

This heart-shaped cocotte is trending ahead of Valentine’s Day, but I think it’s chic enough to cook and serve in food all year long. Le Creuset’s enameled cast iron Dutch oven is a Food & Wine favorite, and this romantic edition is just as functional, durable, and visually appealing as the original round one. 

Cuisinart Stainless Steel Nakiri Knife

Many knife sets don’t come with Nakiri knives, so I wasn’t surprised to see this Cuisinart one trending. Nakiri knives are made for finely chopping and slicing vegetables efficiently, but their shape is versatile enough to use as a chef’s knife. This 7-inch Japanese-style knife is made from sturdy stainless steel and comes with a blade guard to keep your fingers safe.

Owala SmoothSip Slider Coffee Tumbler

Owala is best known for its insulated water bottles, but its coffee tumblers are just as attractive and easy to sip from. This stainless steel travel mug keeps drinks hot for up to six hours and has a leakproof sliding lid that prevents spills between sips. It comes in two sizes — 12 and 20 ounces — both of which fit perfectly in almost any cupholder. 

KitchenAid Evergreen Design Series Pot Holders, 2-Pack

These KitchenAid pot holders are stylish and functional, taking up far less drawer space than a pair of oven mitts. Made to match the controversial Evergreen stand mixer, they feature a forest green herringbone pattern on one side and ribbed silicone on the other side to help you keep your grip on slippery or hot pans. They’re thick yet flexible and have a cozy terrycloth lining and a vegan leather loop for hanging.

Oneida Organic Shades 12-Piece Dinnerware Set

Take your dinner parties to the next level with reasonably priced matching tableware. This stoneware dinnerware set comes with four sets of dinner plates, salad plates, and bowls, each with a creamy glaze and a natural two-toned look.

Ninja Pod & Grounds Specialty Single-Serve Coffee Maker

I wasn’t surprised to see Ninja’s single-serve coffee maker trending on Amazon. This genius machine is compatible with coffee grounds and coffee pods of various sizes, and it comes with a built-in frother that folds away for compact storage. Best of all, it has settings for both hot and iced coffee, so you’ll want a cup every morning, no matter the temperature outside.

Abode Homewares 10-Piece Mixing Bowl Set

I’m all about kitchen products that serve multiple purposes, which is why I love this trendy 10-piece mixing bowl set. The collection comes with five bowls with matching tight-fitting lids, letting them transform from prep bowls into storage containers. The bowls nest together for simplified storage, and since they’re dishwasher-safe, you’ll want to use them every day.
