Kitchen Gadgets - the Good, Bad and Ugly

A good few years ago  I used to have a pastry blender like this

   

which I used every time I made pastry, as my hands are too warm to make good pastry. Then one day my mum had a clear out of the drawers and threw it away. She said it was never used.   Now I just use a fork, or the FP for large quantities.

The breadmaker is used every week.
I use a tea strainer ball since I stopped using teabags.
Temperature probe for jams and jellies, easier than a jam thermometer I find.
Food processor for big quantities of stuff, slicing, mixing, so maybe once a month.
Electric toaster, but I usually use the cooker grill

What I'd like if I had cupboard/worktop space are a Kenwood Chef and an ice cream maker, one that freezes as it churns. (It's probably better for my figure that I don't have either!)
