The best early Labor Day kitchen deals, according to a professional baker

Mix, serve and store dishes in these stainless steel mixing bowls. The set includes five bowls ranging in size from 0.7 quarts to 4.5 quarts, and all come with colorful lids. Other perks: You can nest them in your cabinets to save space, they're dishwasher-friendly and they're dent- and rust-resistant.

Emeril Lagasse's indoor smokeless grill is also an air fryer, but it can bake, roast, toast and dehydrate foods too. Bam! It might become your new favorite kitchen appliance. In addition to the oven itself, you'll also get a mesh crisper basket, a grill grate, a griddle pan, a baking tray and an oven rack. The drip tray will catch all the crumbs and drippings from your food, making cleanup a breeze. Plus, the tempered glass lid is dishwasher-safe. 

"It truly is smokeless technology," confirmed one shopper. "We love the ability to use the oven portion to roast vegetables and grill burgers on top at the same time. The extra wide capacity helps create a dinner for four in half the time with half the appliances and none of the kitchen heat or headaches."

Ahh, etched-in markings — much better! With these, you won't ever risk using the wrong cup or spoon, and what's helpful about this set is that it includes both U.S. and metric measurements. It's also dishwasher-safe, and the handles have nonslip undersides for improved grip. 

Sometimes, you just want to nuke some leftovers for dinner and call it a night. Enter: this no-fuss, sleek, compact microwave. This stainless steel appliance has 1.1 cubic feet of space and includes multiple defrost settings, six auto-cook presets and a child safety lock. It won't take up a ton of space on your counter and hasn't dipped much lower in price all year. 

"Just perfect for my small kitchen," shared a user. "Exactly what I want when it comes to simplicity. No need to get the book out to operate. This is the one if you want a basic microwave. Cooks evenly."

Buy one, gift one! These compact blenders usually sell for $50 a pop and are petite enough to fit in most car cupholders. You — and a friend — will be able to blitz up and enjoy smoothies in transit, thanks to its cordless design (it comes with a rechargeable power base). It's got a sip lid built right in, so no need to transfer your drink to another vessel. This is as low as this duo's ever been. 

"I like to pre-make my smoothies and not blend them until I am ready to drink at work," explained a shopper. "This is perfect so my drink doesn't separate, and if I leave it and it does separate, I can re-blend. Easy to clean and charge. Holds [a] charge very well too."

This sleek appliance might look like a million bucks, but it'll set you back just $20, thanks to this deal. It's from Target's in-house kitchen line, which isn't often on sale, and features setting knobs on each side so you and your significant other will be able to brown your toast to your liking at the same time. It also has a handy auto-shutoff feature, juuust in case. 

"This is a beautiful toaster!" swooned a user. "The matte finish is great because it doesn’t show drips or fingerprints. The pinstripe chrome adds a perfect touch of elegance. I toasted a roll and it turned out perfectly!"
