Upgrade your dorm kitchen with deals on Chefman appliances

Back-to-school season is approaching faster than we'd like, and it's time to start thinking about how your dorm will look next semester. To help you make your living space more functional, Chefman is offering deals on top kitchen essentials that you can bring to college. Below are our top picks in that category:

Most college students' dorms are severely lacking in kitchen appliances since the dining hall can be a way more attractive option than cooking for yourself. But you might want to consider upgrading your college experience and investing in some of the Chefman appliances we've rounded up below. Not only are these currently on sale at Amazon but they'll help make your next few months at school delicious. Just think of all the popcorn you can make in that microwave and all the matcha lattes you can whip up using the kettles.

Best kettle deal for tea aficionados

Why we like it

The Chefman Precision Control Gooseneck Rapid Boil kettle is not your average kettle. It comes with five different temperature settings labeled with things like "oolong," "black/herbal," and "green/white," which is how you know it's made for real tea aficionados. We're all too familiar with the struggle of having to reheat water after forgetting about it, but this kettle has a Keep Warm function that ensures you always have hot water available. Plus, its gooseneck provides an overall classy look (always a win for dorm rooms).

Best basic kettle deal

Why we like it

To be sure, if you own a kettle in college, you're anything but basic. Yet, this Chefman Custom-Temp 1.8L infuser kettle is basic in that it doesn't have all the specialty tea presets of the previously described gooseneck kettle. For that reason, it's a bit cheaper (we know you're into saving money) while still allowing you to boil water at various temps from 160-212 degrees Fahrenheit. The Custom-Temp 1.8L infuser kettle one-ups the Gooseneck Rapid Boil kettle in a few key ways, including its removable tea infuser (which helps you steep a whole pot of tea versus one cup at a time) and LED light settings that indicate the readiness of the water (white for standby; red for heating; green for keep warm/steep).

Best microwave deal

Why we like it

This microwave has presets for most everything you need: popcorn, potatoes, veggies, leftovers, and so much more. It runs on 1000 watts and has 10 different power levels, so it works quickly and effectively to heat up whatever you're craving, from late-night ramen to your mom's frozen soup from home. In case your roommate is studying for a test or you're on an important Zoom call, the Chefman microwave oven is also equipped with a mute option that silences any alarms or beeping noises.
