Kitchen Essentials for a New Home

Mixing bowls

If you’re a keen baker then a good set of mixing bowls is an absolute necessity. You can choose from plastic and steel bowls in a range of sizes, and some even come with handy lids – perfect for storing fresh food.

Kitchen utensils

Most people think of utensils as just the basics, but the term actually covers much more than that! From mashers and graters to wooden spoons and spatulas, there are so many handy utensils that are a staple in kitchens. For style consistency, lots of people like to buy matching sets; this is also a great way to pick up more items for a reduced cost.

Nonstick pots and pans

Nonstick pots and pans are designed with a slick, chemical coating that prevents food from sticking to the bottom of the pan, helping to prevent your dish from burning. Since you’ll be using your pots and pans on a regular basis, it’s worth doing your research and finding a good-quality set that will last you for years.

Chopping board set

Some people find that just one chopping board is enough for them, but if you’re cooking big batches, then you will probably do better with a chopping board set. With plenty of design options available, including wood, plastic and graphite, it’s easy to find something that will complement your kitchen.

Ovenproof dishes

If you’re cooking up a cheesy pasta bake or roasting some buttery potatoes, then here’s where an ovenproof dish will come in handy. You can find them in various shapes, from round to rectangular, in a range of colours and materials to match your home.

Stylish oven gloves

Believe it or not, your oven gloves can actually say a lot about your personality. Are you a bright colours and patterns person, or do you prefer to keep things simple with monochrome or neutrals?

Quality cutlery and crockery set

Good-quality cutlery and crockery will last you for years, and many people consider them the ultimate dinner party essentials. From four-piece dinner sets all the way up to 32 pieces, our cutlery and crockery comes in a range of gorgeous styles and designs, so it’s easy to find something that will perfectly complement your kitchen.

Food mixers and blenders

Whether you can’t function without your morning smoothie or see yourself as a future ‘Bake Off’ contestant, mixers and blenders are a handy addition to your kitchen.

Kettle and toaster

It’s always useful to have a kettle and a toaster in your kitchen – in fact, most people would be lost without these two essentials. To keep things stylish and consistent, why not pick up a matching kettle and toaster?

Kitchen waste bin

Hide unsightly bin bags and prevent bad smells from circulating around the kitchen with a kitchen waste bin. Keep things simple with a classic pedal bin or go all-out with a smart compactor bin with an automatic sensor lid.

Mugs and glasses

From sipping tea to celebrating with wine, you'll need plenty of mugs, cups and glasses for your new kitchen. Our glassware sets are available in various shapes, from tumblers to champagne flutes, with plenty of finishes.

You can find mugs in a range of designs and colours to show your personality and build your colour scheme. From sets of stackable styles to one-off statement pieces, impress your guests with an enviable mug collection.

Kitchen tea towels

Like oven gloves, tea towels are also a great way to showcase your personality. Many come in matching sets of varying colours and patterns which will help to keep your kitchen feeling refreshed.

Dish drainer

Dry your dishes the stylish way with one of our dish drainers. Available as one, two or three tiers, dish drainers help to keep all your utensils and crockery organised as it dries – and saves the need for you having to use a dishcloth!
