It’s time to wake up from your turkey-induced slumber because Black Friday is here! Between today and Cyber Monday, there are a slew of savings to be found on big ticket items and even small-potatoes essentials you’ve been eyeing for a while (or wish you had while you whipped up Thanksgiving dinner). Right now retailers are offering low prices on small kitchen appliances like air fryers, stand mixers, espresso machines, and coffee makers, plus cookware and other culinary tools, like knives, meat thermometers, food storage containers, and more.
A few of our favorite deals
Skip to what you’re looking for
We’ve curated a list of particularly great deals, focusing on top brands we’ve tested and loved, including GreenPan, Cuisinart, Oxo, Instant, and Breville. And as a friendly reminder to anyone hosting this holiday season, there’s nothing wrong with treating yourself to some new or upgraded tools before your guests arrive for dinner.
Take a look at our constantly updating list of the best Black Friday kitchen deals below.
Cookware
Our top nonstick skillet, GreenPan’s Valencia, is on sale in various sizes, including in a set of three pans for under $100. Stainless steel cookware sets from All-Clad are $200 off and that brand’s bakeware is nearly half off, or you can save $90 off a more affordable Calphalon set. Our favorite half-sheet pans from Nordic Ware are on sale, as is a heftier option from Analon. And you can save some cash on spendy Le Creuset Dutch ovens and bakeware, or our more affordable Dutch oven recommendation from Milo, and a compact cocotte from Staub, all of which are perfect for autumn soups, stews, and braises.
Dutch ovens
DEAL: STAUB Cast Iron Dutch Oven 4-qt Round Cocotte, Made in France, Serves 3-4, Cherry
Staub is always a close second in our testing, and the benefit it has over the Le Creuset is the raw black cast iron material, which doesn’t show wear as readily over time. If you want a Dutch oven that’s just a little more durable, then a Staub is the way to go.
DEAL: Le Creuset Enameled Cast Iron Signature Round Dutch Oven, 7.25 qt.
The Le Creuset consistently wins the top spot in our Dutch oven testing, and for good reason. Not only does it perform well, it also features a few key design details that sets it apart from the competition—including a slightly lightweight design and wide loop handles that make for easy gripping.
DEAL: Le Creuset Signature Enameled Cast Iron Round Wide Dutch Oven, 6 3/4-Qt
If you need something a little smaller, go for the 6 ¾-quart Le Creusets.
DEAL: Milo 5.5 Quart Classic Dutch Oven
For a more affordable option, the Milo by Kana is your best bet.
All-Clad D5 Cookware Set
DEAL: All-Clad D5 Stainless-Steel 10-Piece Cookware Set
We don’t typically recommend sets of cookware because we think there’s good reason to have, say, a stainless stockpot and saucepan, a carbon steel frying pan, etc. But if you pushed us, we’d point you to an All-Clad set. Their stainless steel cookware is the best out there, and the D5 line, considered the brand’s premier range, features ultra warp-resistant five-ply construction.
Lodge Pre-Seasoned Cast Iron Skillet
DEAL: Lodge Pre-Seasoned Cast-Iron Skillet, 10.25-inch
A cast-iron skillet is the definition of a kitchen essential: Use it for just about any stovetop or oven task, be it frying eggs or roasting a chicken. Lodge is a long-standing classic brand in the space, and their affordable skillets are well-made, come pre-seasoned, and will last you a lifetime if you take care of them.

Knives
While those sets of kitchen knives in a convenient countertop block might be appealing as a bargain buy, we tend to think it’s best to build your own set from the ground up. Check out more on our recommendations for individual chefs knives, santoku knives, and bread knives to help you choose the right knife for the job. However, some of those picks from brands like Mac and Wüsthof are on sale below, including as parts of sets to get your collection started. That said, you can grab two of our top chefs knives from Global and Zwilling on their own, or as a part of a set.
Global Classic Chef’s & Paring Knives
DEAL: Global Classic Chef’s & Paring Knives, Set of 2
Global makes one of our all-time favorite chef’s knives. The handle is filled with a precise amount of sand designed to make it feel balanced, like a true extension of its user’s arm. It’s the knife of choice for many Epi staffers, who claim it holds its edge for a long time and is easy to sharpen when the time comes. This two-pack comes with the chef’s knife plus a paring knife that’s great for all of your small kitchen prep tasks.
Wüsthof Classic Double Serrated Bread Knife
DEAL: WÜSTHOF Wusthof Classic White 9 Inch Bread Knife (white)
This Wusthof bread knife is different than almost any other you’ll ever use because it’s double-serrated, meaning there are little teeth inside the bigger teeth. It’s light and incredibly good when it comes to piercing the crust of a bread without tearing the inside of it.
Victorinox Swiss Classic 8-Inch Chef’s Knife
DEAL: Victorinox Swiss Classic 8-Inch Chef’s Knife
If a great chef’s knife is what you’re after but you’re not looking to spend $100+ on it, the Victorinox Swiss Classic is your answer. While it may not have the luxe style and feel of some of our other top picks, it’s an absolute kitchen workhorse with a razor-sharp blade and lightweight feel that make it a joy to use.
Wüsthof Gourmet 5-Inch Hollow Edge Santoku Knife
DEAL: WÜSTHOF Gourmet 5″ Hollow Edge Santoku Knife
For unmatched versatility and an ideal mix of agility and precision, reach for a santoku knife. The 7″ version of this one from Wüsthof fared well in our testing, making this shorter version a great pick for anyone with smaller hands or who favors a shorter blade.

DEAL: Zwilling Pro Set, 3 Piece
Air Fryers
Black Friday sales are offering some serious savings on air fryers as usual this year. If you’re ready to delve into (or upgrade) your small appliance game with the convenience of countertop convection cooking, you can snag one from brands we’ve tested, including those from Instant, Ninja, Cuisinart, Cosori, and Philips, plus our splurge-worthy pick from Typhur.
Typhur Dome
DEAL: Typhur Dome Air Fryer
The dome silhouette of the Typhur makes it looks like an air fryer of the future and trust us when we say it works a bit like one too—which is exactly why it’s one of our favorite air fryers. This thing is huge, with enough space to fit a 12-inch pizza and two pounds of fries. It’s also super powerful, able to cook things in just a few short minutes with no preheating required. The interface is super intuitive and it has a self-clean feature that helps with overall tidying up. While it does take up a fair bit of space, this is one air fryer worth splurging on this Black Friday.
Philips Premium Airfryer XXL
DEALS: Philips Premium Airfryer XXL
The Philips Premium Air Fryer was a former top pick in our product testing because of its sleek, intuitive control panel and high performance. This XXL version is the one to get if you often find yourself cooking for four, five, or even six people. Its 7-quart capacity is large enough to fit an entire chicken, or a mountain of french fries—take your pick.

Coffee Makers
Whether you’re in the market for a drip coffee machine or espresso maker, these Black Friday deals are perfect for budding at-home baristas. If you’re not sure where to start, we have an entire article helping to explain which coffeemaking method might be right for you. Below you’ll find deals on Nespresso, Moccamaster, and a bundle featuring our new favorite drip coffee maker, the Fellow Aiden, plus lower-tech options like our top French press and the single-serve Aeropress.
Technivorm Moccamaster 10-Cup Coffee Maker
DEAL: Technivorm Moccamaster 10-Cup Coffee Maker
If you’re wondering if we stand behind this machine, just know that it has been the source of coffee in our test kitchen for years. The Moccamaster was, perhaps, the first truly high quality drip coffee maker and if you want something that’s simple to operate, they don’t come much better than this.
Fellow Aiden Coffee Maker
DEAL: The Big Aiden Bundle
While the Moccamaster makes a quality cup of coffee with little effort, our absolute favorite coffee maker is the Aiden from Fellow. The Fellow Aiden only recently came out this past year, and it very quickly dominated our best coffee maker testing. The machine allows you to customize water temperature, bloom time, and the length of pulses—creating a drip coffee maker that basically mimics pour over coffee. You can get this coffee maker along with an electric scale, vacuum canister for your beans, and a Fellow Burr grinder (which happens to be one of our favorites) at a discount now this Black Friday.
Fellow Stagg EKG Pro
DEAL: Fellow Stagg EKG Pro
The Fellow Gooseneck kettle doesn’t just look nice, it’s also got the performance and extra features to secure it a top spot in our electric kettle testing. The spindly spout offers precise pour control and the “guide mode” offers a range of boiling settings for whatever type of hot beverage you might need—including pourover coffee, black tea, green tea, and more. And our favorite feature: you can even schedule you water to boil ahead of time, much like you would with a coffee maker.

Countertop Appliances
If coffee makers and air fryers aren’t the only small appliances onyour wishlist, Black Friday deals extend to just about any countertop gadget you can think of. Our favorite Vitamix blender is on sale (as is our second favorite from Cuisinart), so are Instant Pot multicookers (including one with an air fry lid), our top choice in food processors from Breville, a great portable induction cooktop, and multiple sizes of KitchenAid Stand Mixers are at a major discount. Plus, there are some enticing sale prices on pizza ovens, too.
Vitamix blenders
DEAL: Vitamix 5200 Blender, 64 oz
If high-powered blending and simple, intuitive design are what you’re after, the Vitamix 5200 is the blender for you. In fact, we’re willing to argue it’s the best blender option for anyone. It comes out on top in our product testing time and time again, and is a staple in home and restaurant kitchens alike for its powerful motor and straightforward control panel that gives you everything you need and nothing you don’t.
DEAL: Vitamix Propel 510 Propel Blender
If you’re tight on kitchen space and want to be able to easily tuck your blender under your overhead cabinets, or you’re frequently blending in smaller batches, go for the Propel 510. It has a smaller, lower-profile container, and three preset programs for hot soup, smoothies, and frozen desserts.
Zwilling J.A. Henckels Enfinigy Personal Blender
DEAL: Zwilling J.A. Henckels Enfinigy Personal Blender
When it comes to personal blenders for simple, small blending tasks, the Zwilling J.A. Henckels Enfinigy takes the spot as our favorite. It’s super powerful compared to other personal models, is super simple to use, offers the ideal jar size, and has plenty of curb appeal.
KitchenAid Stand Mixers
DEAL: KitchenAid Classic Series 4.5 Quart Tilt-Head Stand Mixer K45SS
If you’re a baker looking for another high-powered kitchen appliance to splurge on, then these deals on KitchenAid stand mixers are for you. KitchenAid regularly wins in our stand mixer product tests, and two of their models are on sale now. This 4.5-quart KitchenAid stand mixer is the perfect size for most home cooks, it has 10 speeds, and unlike the larger bowl-lift models, it has a tilt-head design that lets you hinge back the head of the mixer to easily place and remove the bowl, and to add ingredients while you work.
DEAL: KitchenAid 5 QT Stand Mixer Value Artisan Bundle, Aqua Sky
The 5-quart size is also available if you anticipate needing something even bigger.
DEAL: KitchenAid 7 Quart Bowl-Lift Stand Mixer
For those who need an especially heavy duty stand mixer, KitchenAid’s bowl-lift models allow you to crank the bowl up or away from the mixing attachment—holding it securely in place as it beats together tougher mixtures.
