The Amazon Section You Need to Know About for Everyday Items

In the endless sea of products offered on Amazon these days, you may have missed that the site has also quietly launched several private-label brands, like Wickedly Prime (snacks and pantry goodies) and even furniture lines. One of our favorite Amazon private-label brands: the aptly named, no-frills AmazonBasics line.

It includes all sorts of things like batteries, Moleskin notebook alternatives, and, of course, plenty of kitchen gear. And Amazon is currently running 20 percent off some of the best-rated products. Check out the full sale here and keep reading see what’s on sale for the kitchen.

The humble bench scraper is one of our all-time favorite multi-purpose tools. Now just $7, this one has many of the things we look for in a scraper: a comfortable grip, a perfectly shaped blade, and measurement markings for handy reference.

The sale includes not one but two budget buys for flatware. If you currently have a hodgepodge of mismatched spoons, forks, and knives, consider this your time to upgrade. The 45-piece sets includes service for eight as well as serving implements. Even if you don’t regularly host sit-down dinners, eight servings is perfect for keeping a small home’s silverware drawer stocked between loads of dishes. A slightly fancier scalloped edges option is also on sale.

Seemingly intended more for offices and catering, this is also a great buy if you’re planning any summer cookouts or picnics. The cutlery is made from plant-based plastic that is renewable and biodegradable.

Have you bought any kitchen gear from AmazonBasics before? What’d you think?
