Most used appliance?
Not the big ones, so leave out stove, fridge, dishwasher. I'd even say leave out the microwave as they are so ubiquitous.
Your kitchen appliances; which three do you use most frequently?
Mine:
1. Food processor
2. Electric frypan
3. Benchtop convection oven

3. Ummmm......Let's See
I don't have a whole lot of small kitcen appliances: a blender, an ice cream maker, a quesadilla maker, a George Foreman grill, three coffeemakers (12 cup, 4 cup, single cup), a stick blender, a KitchenAid mixer, a small handheld mixer, a mini food processor, a mini blender, an electric grill, a rotisserie. Ooops, more appliances here than I thought. I probably should get rid of a bunch of them.
I've never used the rotisserie. Been years since I used the electric grill - and it's a pain to clean. The KtchenAid mixer is actually in the garage since it does not fit in or under any of my kitchen cabinets. I rarely use a mixer and when I do I usually just reach for the small handheld mixer. The quesadilla maker was a novelty gift and hasn't been used in quite some time. The blender and ice cream maker get used a couple of times a year. I keep the larger coffeemakers for when I have guests - but I do not regularly use them.
The appliances that are used regularly include the small George Foreman grill, the single cup coffeemaker, the mini food processor, the mini blender, and the stick blender.
Which do I use most often?
1. Probably a toss-up between the single cup cofreemaker and the mini blender which makes a single smoothie or protein drink. One of the two is used daily.
2. The small George Foreman grill. Gets used at least once every couple of weeks.
3. Probably a toss-up between the stick blender and the mini food processor. I use the stick blender in soups. THe mini food processor is used whenever I need to shop something into finer pieces than I am willing to do by hand.
I think the rotisserie and the electric grill will go in the next garage sale.

The Bayer Asipirin primitive forgot to mention her Electric Chopper for slicing and dicing other primitives' posts. And her Magic Chef Thread Locker.

We never use a single one of the devices mentioned by the DUmbasses.
But considering their honesty, the DUmmies probably don't either.

It's very disheartening, though.
One wishes hippyhubby Wild Bill hadn't eaten hippywife Mrs. Alfred Packer.

I LOVE my Keurig. Best gift EVER.
Mine:
Keurig (daily)
Crock Pot (weekly)
Hand Mixer
Although today, I am busting out the Kitchen Aid stand mixer to make some chocolate chip cookies. Today is a good day for baking-cloudy and cold!
