Kitchen aids for easier, more confident everyday cooking

Our kitchen aids range includes jar, tin and bottle openers, ergonomic cutlery and utensils, one-handed chopping boards, kettle tippers and kitchen trolleys, among other practical products.

A one-handed chopping board usually has raised edges, spikes or a corner guide to hold food steady, so it can be cut, peeled or spread using just one hand, without needing to hold the food down separately.

A kettle tipper holds the kettle in a stable cradle and uses a lever to tip it forward, reducing the need to lift and pour. It's important to make sure the tipper is securely fitted to your kettle and used carefully, given the kettle will contain boiling water.

Many kitchen aids, such as ergonomic utensils and easy-turn jar openers, are designed with larger, cushioned grips that can reduce strain on the hands and joints, which may be helpful if you have arthritis. They're a practical aid rather than a treatment, so it's still worth speaking to a GP or occupational therapist about managing your condition more broadly.

If you have a disability or a long-term illness, you may qualify for VAT relief on eligible kitchen aids. This usually involves completing a simple eligibility declaration at checkout, with the VAT removed at the point of sale.
