5 Kitchen Gifts to Last a Lifetime

Have you ever noticed people tend to gravitate toward the kitchen in your home? If you love to eat, cook, bake or host, the kitchen is one of the essential rooms to think about when building your registry. 

The trick is to separate the must-have kitchen goods that will stand the test of time from the kind of stuff that will live in the back of the cupboard or wear out after a few months or years. 

Here at Everlastly, product lifetime is a critical piece of our Evergrade system. We’ve discovered that long-lasting kitchen items can be particularly tough to come by, especially with so many products containing Teflon or cheaply made materials that cause them to wear out before their time. 

The good news is, there are some amazing brands making beautiful products that will become your secret weapon in the kitchen. We’re here to bring you peace of mind in knowing that the products on our site are not only sustainable but designed to last as long as your marriage.

Here are five of our favorite kitchen items that will be sure to last a lifetime:

1. Enameled Cast Iron Round Cocotte by Staub

There are a few reasons why we love these classic pots from Staub. Not only will they last forever, but they’re a multifunctional kitchen staple that will help you cook everything from hearty stews to crusty bread. With ten colors to choose from, you know you’ll find one that will make a statement in your kitchen.

2. Ceramic 4-Piece Baking Dish Set by Staub

Also from Staub is this stunning baking dish set that will never go out of style. Whether you’re baking something special for date night or making lasagna for a crowd, this set will help you master the home-cooked meal.

3. 5 Piece Stainless Steel Bakeware Set from 360 Cookware

This bakeware set will help you bake just about anything to perfection, plus it's easy to clean and practically indestructible. These pieces will last regardless of how often you drop them or accidentally burn something in the oven, so don’t stress if it doesn’t turn out perfect every time!

4. Kaizen Hollow Edge Santoku Knife by Miyabi

For the ideal chef’s knife, look no further than the Kaizen. It will make chopping and slicing a breeze, and with a knife of this quality, you’ll be able to use it for decades to come (with some sharpening along the way).

5. 10 Inch Cast Iron Skillet by Kana

Finally, check out this tough yet refined skillet from Kana. When taken care of correctly, cast iron can last generations, building a seasoning that will enhance the flavor of your food and create a non-stick surface.

We hope you’ve found a few new things to add to your wishlist. All these items and more can be found on our Modern Kitchen Heirlooms page, so jump in and add your favorites to your registry!
