Redesigning the Kitchen & Appliances You Can't Live Without

I have at last finalized the design for my new kitchen... SO excited! 

This whole process took a lot longer than I intended to. Everything was set and ready to go with designs from Porsche Kitchen Systems by Poggenpohl but I had a last minute change of heart. All the components would be flown in from Germany; with the staggered shipments, fitting out, rewiring, etc - the kitchen would not be fully functional for a good 6 months or so. As much as I love and lust for a swanky Porsche kitchen, I decided to give it a miss. Quite frankly, I don't think I could survive on just takeouts or salads for half a year. 

I used Chubby Hubby's kitchen as a loose starting point and Molteni & C's designers have kindly helped along the way. I love sleek, clean lines of a modern minimalist kitchen and needed tons of storage space + counter top area. Oh precious counter top real estate... I never seem to have enough of you.

During this whole process, I realized that I have lots of gadgets and gizmos in the kitchen; also possibly more appliances than a normal kitchen would, like a sous-vide machine and a salamander.

It got me to thinking - what's your nice-to-have and must-have appliances in the kitchen?
