Choosing the right appliances to create the perfect kitchen can be rather daunting especially since it’s something that you definitely have to plan carefully. After all, you’ll want the heart of your home to be equipped with the essential appliances that fit your lifestyle or cooking needs. Plus, if you love to cook or experiment with new recipes, it’s more important than ever to check off every appliance in the ultimate home kitchen must-have list.
If you love baking, maybe you’re considering a built-in oven so you can bake to your heart’s content. Or maybe you’re torn between getting a gas hob or an electric hob and are weighing the pros and cons of each type. It seems like there’s a kitchen appliance for almost everything, making the choices endless especially if you’re unsure where to start.
Below is a list of kitchen appliances that are absolutely essential, especially if you love nothing more than creating culinary masterpieces whenever you can.
If you love cooking but hate cleaning up, then you absolutely need a cooker hood. It’s one of the most important kitchen appliances that can dramatically reduce the time spent on mopping that oily floor or getting the grease off the hob. Also known as a range hood, the cooker hood is a lifesaver, even if you don’t cook every day.
That’s because a good cooker hood works hard to keep your kitchen and home smoke-free. After all, nobody wants their home to smell like an oily kitchen all the time. Cooker hoods are great for purifying and ventilating the air, especially after you’ve been on a cooking spree. It also helps to remove odour and grease from the cooking fumes produced, ensuring that your kitchen stays clean and fresh.

So, the question is: How do you know whether a cooker hood is good or not? It’s pretty simple. First of all, you need to ensure that it has a high oil-capturing ratio to reduce the amount of grease that is mixed with the cooking fumes. Next, it should be easy to maintain and support a fuss-free cleaning session instead of necessitating regular clean-ups. The cooker hood should also operate at a very low sound level to ensure you always have a clean and quiet kitchen.
While there is a large variety of cooker hoods out there, it can be rather intimidating when deciding which brand is the best for you. Luckily, FUJIOH, a well-known Japanese brand, offers some of the best cooker hoods in Singapore and beyond.

In case you didn’t know, FUJIOH’s cooker hood FR-CL1890 has patented OIL SMASHER Technology and has a high oil capturing ratio of up to 94%. FUJIOH’s cooker hoods are also designed with oil-repellent paint coating to make sure that the external body of the hood is easy to keep clean and wipe. Moreover, FUJIOH’s Aqua Slit Filter is coated with a Hydrophilic coating because of which, oil or grease can be washed with just water, making cleaning hassle-free and less time-consuming.

Ventilating hood is a great choice for landed properties whereby smoke and moisture are directly expelled out of the house, maintaining a fresher kitchen.

When searching for a hob to buy, chances are you’ll get confused between gas, ceramic and induction. While gas hobs can be rather traditional, they could be a hassle in compact homes. That’s because the gas cylinder is rather bulky and will take up a lot of space, and piped gas might not be available at your premise.
Meanwhile, induction hobs use powerful, high-frequency electromagnets that heat the pan but not the cooktop surface. Only reacting to cookware, induction hobs require pans with ferrous metal to be present before heating up. This makes induction hobs great for people who have kids or those who are afraid that they’ll forget to turn off the hob. If you want to check whether your pan is suitable, place a magnet there, and if it sticks, then it will work fine.
Ceramic hobs have coiled metal elements under tempered ceramic glass that are electronically heated. The coil heats the surface, which then warms the pan. They typically use more energy to heat the cooking zones than induction hobs, which, as a result, can increase your electricity bills. However, the good thing is they can be used with almost any kind of cookware. Their surfaces will also remain warm after use making them relatively unsafe when there are kids around but they’re more affordable than induction hobs.

Another must-have kitchen appliance is the microwave oven, which is amazing when you need to heat food real quick. It’s also useful when you want to defrost first before cooking.
A good microwave should be easy to use and maintain. But if you don’t have a lot of table space in your kitchen, we recommend getting a built-in microwave oven to help you maximise more of that wall space.

Moreover, it comes with an electric door opening feature, which provides easy access to the microwave with just a single tap on the touchscreen panel.
Last but not least, for the bakers, an oven. Ovens can be used to cook many different types of cuisine due to their versatility. Ideally, a good oven should be user-friendly and have adequate safety functions. It should also come with accessories so you can cook various types of food.
While there are plenty of standalone ovens, having a built-in oven will save space, especially in space-scarce Singapore. Moreover, they are generally bigger in size so you can cook big batches of food with ease.
