I've so many but I’ve replied on other posts, just some of which are under the heading Related Posts (to the right on my screen). Maybe you'll find some & other member's gadgets handy too.

Quite a few things have been and are a great help to me, but one which isn't necessarily to do with having RD but is a good help is my little citrus peeler. Had it donkeys years, came from a Tupperware party I went to and looks a little like a crochet hook. Always been useful but never more so since having RD.

Von Shef from Amazon

The first one we had developed a faulty switch so we returned it and got one with a rider (?) switch which is better although I think that it might be an older model? 🤔

Have you seen the videos of the cat who rides round on the roomba? He’s called Shark cat - he is so cute (I suppose if you love cats) I think he died not too long ago, there are other videos of her pets.

Broke my arm and used that as an excuse to get a Dyson. So easy to use.

I also bought a Mini Magimix recently for chopping veg, I can manage the odd thing but if I’m doing a lot of chopping I can’t beat the mini chopper. I love those plastic handle things you attach to electric plugs to pull them out of sockets. Cheap from Amazon and brilliant.

My soup maker as it cooks and blends all in one pot, soup ready in 19 minutes.

Oh yes, I’ve got one, it is really good and so quick.

Before that I used to have an enormous soup pot on the go for hours - days even - and I always made far too much, so a soup maker is good - I often chop onions and stuff in the mini magimix - you don’t need to because it does blend it but I think it must cook faster if it’s been chopped finely.
