Like a colony of bees, every cooking gadget earns its keep and serves a specific purpose in my kitchen. (Yes, in this scenario, I’m the queen, and my tongs, whisks, and stainless steel spatulas are there to support my every cooking whim.) With this mindset guiding my every purchase, I only buy tools that I will actually use, are built to last, and won’t take up an absurd amount of space in my drawers. OXO’s Good Grips line checks every one of these boxes.
Below, I’ve rounded up nine of the brand’s most popular pieces. Not only will these vegetable peelers, stainless steel ladles, apple corers, and more be especially useful for fall and winter recipes, but they’re all priced at $15 or less at Amazon.

Swivel Vegetable Peeler
Amazon
Nearly 45,000 Amazon shoppers swear by OXO’s vegetable peeler thanks to its razor-sharp blades, swivel design, and ergonomic, non-slip handle. One reviewer called it the “best peeler” they have ever worked with, writing that “it’s sharp, easy to use, and even has a little tool for removing potato eyes.”
Soap-Dispensing Scrub Brush
Amazon
If this isn’t the perfect cleaning tool, then we don’t know what is. OXO thought of everything when it attached a bristled head to a hollow handle. Instead of struggling with a wet, slippery soap bottle, you can pre-fill the handle with soap and dispense it at the touch of a button while washing dishes. Shoppers say they’ll “never go back” to sponges now that they own this brush — in fact, it “actually makes me want to hand wash my dishes,” said one owner.
Stainless Steel Turner
Amazon
OXO’s stainless steel turner is a useful tool when flipping delicate pancakes, transferring hamburgers to dinner plates, or draining fat away from ground turkey. Its ribbed handle is also a boon if your hands are wet and you’re rushing to get food off of your cast iron skillet before it burns.
Etched Zester and Grater
Amazon
Whether you’re zesting citrus for salad dressing or grating Parmesan cheese for Gnocchi alla Sorrentina, you need a good rasp-style grater. OXO’s model happens to be one of our favorites. It’s affordably priced, with impressively sharp teeth that are more than capable of tackling everything from ginger to chocolate.
11-Inch Balloon Whisk
Amazon
Thanks to its teardrop-shaped handle, OXO’s balloon whisk is easier to hold than most. Its stainless steel wires are also a plus, considering how simple they are to clean in the dishwasher. Whipped cream, emulsified vinaigrettes, and aerated egg whites are just $13 away.
Stainless Steel Ladle
Amazon
Soups and stews are on the menu now that we’ve hit fall. If you need a ladle that can keep up with the volume of molten liquid you’re about to consume, you couldn’t do much better than OXO’s. For just $13, you get a ladle that’s dishwasher-safe, durable, and equipped with two spouts for pouring.
Apple Corer
Amazon
Apple season is upon us. Whether you’re making apple pie or apple fritters, you’re going to want to have this apple corer on hand. While it’s easy to cut an apple away from its core with a paring knife, this clever gadget keeps the shape of the fruit intact for prettier desserts, salads, and more. It also works on pears.
Cut and Serve Turner
Amazon
This clever turner keeps you from dirtying a knife and a spoon when serving lasagnas, stratas, brownies, and more. This is in large part thanks to its sharp edge, which cuts through a layer of broiled cheese as easily as it breaks through a crackly chocolate crust. The edge is also beveled to help slide under and lift up food.
Measuring Spoons, Set of 4
Amazon
If you often misplace your measuring spoons, you need this set from OXO. It’s a favorite at Food & Wine because of its magnetic handles, which “let them snap together securely for storage and separate simply for measuring.” We also love that they nest together when you don’t need them, so as not to take up as much room in your kitchen drawers.
