Best Buy's Outlet Event - deals better than Amazon Prime Day?
Best Buy is hosting a sales event for the whole of October. There will be 50% off appliances and tech for a month. That might be better than Prime Day
Best Buy's Outlet Event is the place to go if you're looking for a new large appliance. I've seen thousands taken off household brands, including LG and Samsung. I promise you won't find prices like this anywhere else. That's a personal promise.
Whilst Amazon Prime Big Deals Days promise some incredible early discounts on small appliances, they won't rival Best Buy's large appliance deals. As a shopping expert, I couldn't resist taking a look at what Best Buy has to offer. Whether you're looking to replace your washing machine, dishwasher, or something smaller, this is the place to look.
It's worth saying that these discounts come on refurbished appliances, but, in many ways, that's better than buying brand-new. Refurbishing an appliance means that it functions like a fresh model, but you have also saved surplus, unnecessary waste from entering into the environment.
If the Prime Day deals don't have what you're looking for, I'd recommend taking a look at these excellent deals.

I think dishwashers are some of the most unappreciated appliances in the home. They can save you hours of washing up, delivering sparkly, clean, and dry dishes in super-quick time. These are some of the best dishwashers on the market, it just so happens that they're discounted heavily too.

Best small appliance deals
Sales periods are the best times to refresh your kitchen. Whether it's investing in a nice-to-have extra or a need to have appliance, there's plenty on offer. Compared to the large appliance sales, these deals are modest. However, we did still want to share them with you, so here they are.

This is the air fryer that all of our experts use. The dual baskets mean that you can fry, roast, broil, bake, reheat, and dehydrate two different foods at the same time. $20 isn't a huge discount, but a saving is a saving. Plus, this isn't yet reduced at Amazon.
Keurig K-Select Single| Was $149.99 now $99.99 at Best Buy
Keurigs don't make the best coffee in the world, but this is a good bet for an unfussy dose of caffeine. This compact option is one of the best investments you can make, especially if you're looking for space-saving options. The $50 saving makes this a bargain.
Breville Barista Express | Was $699.05, now $685.95 at Best Buy
This is one of the best espresso machines on the market. Complete with pre-infusion technology and temperature sensors, it's an essential for aspiring baristas, though this is hardly the best deal you'll ever see.

KitchenAid Classic Stand Mixer | Was $329.99, now $294.99 at Best Buy
There's no rivalling KitchenAid and their iconic stand mixers. The Classic is the predecessor to the Artisan, and while not quite as good, it's far cheaper. This model is great for everyday baking. A $35 discount isn't huge, but it does make this the cheapest KitchenAid on offer.
All the detail is our full KitchenAid Classic stand mixer review.
