If you're looking to upgrade your kitchen, December is a great time to score an appliance deal. At the end of the year, newer models and designs will be released, so you’ll typically be able to buy older models at lower prices. I also see appliance bundle deals and discount codes in the holiday season, which can help you save more when purchasing multiple items from the same brand – if you know what to buy and where to look.
That's where I come in. As a trained cook and kitchen appliances editor, I spend 365 days a year testing and reviewing appliances of all shapes and sizes – from the best refrigerators and dishwashers to air fryers and the best blenders. I round up all the pros and cons, compare the prices, and write up my top picks every month.
Our buying guides below have been expertly curated (if I do say so myself) to help you navigate the best appliance deals, ensuring you invest in machines that truly stand the test of time.
Here are my top tips for shopping the best kitchen appliance deals shrewdly, including: when to shop, which appliances to choose, and specifically where to buy them.

The best small appliance deals
These are the best appliance deals. They are the highest-rated brands at the top of our buying guides.
This is the cheapest KitchenAid deal I've seen for a long time, on the very best stand mixer in the world. You can save over $100 on Amazon. It's a beautiful and extremely useful addition to your kitchen, making light work of cake batter, whipped cream, dough and more, with a wide range of fun attachments.
Bodum have been making their bistro-style, domed French press for nearly 75 years. With such timeless design, it's no wonder they grace our list of best French press coffee makers. This model is affordable but classy, made from stainless steel and BPA-free plastic materials.
This is a premium but affordable air fryer.The two-drawer design is perfect for busy or tired people who want to cook a whole meal in one appliance. It's dishwasher safe and doesn't even come with instructions, because the whole appliance is so easy to use.

This is the only frying pan you'll ever need. It won't leach chemicals, since it's one of the best non-toxic appliances and therefore free from non-stick PFOAs. Food sizzles and browns gorgeously. My favorite part is that it comes with a circular, natural brush which makes the cleaning so easy. Plus, there's a Limited Lifetime Warranty.

A portable blender actually worth buying. We rated this 4.5 stars, after hours of testing (and carrying it around in our bags). It's a great choice for gym bunnies, office workers or students who want to stay nourished on the go. It makes light work of smoothies and protein shakes.

The best large appliance deals
I've spotted $200 off Samsung's spacious, top-load washer. It's our favorite for families. It's roomy enough for bedding, everybody's clothes, and even king-size comforters.

Voted our best refrigerator brand overall, Frigidaire has reduced their French door model by over 40% at Wayfair. With spacious interiors, odor-removing tech, a brilliant crisper function and reliable water dispensers.

The café dishwasher is a sleek, almost invisible addition to the kitchen. It's super quiet, efficient and it's a steal in Best Buy's kitchen appliance deals.

Top tips for shopping the best kitchen appliance deals
Read our buying guides: Start by reading our buying guides for expert recommendations and comparisons. I cover the majority of kitchen appliances, keeping each page updated with news – like flash sales on our favorite products, so you’ll know exactly when a good deal hits.
Consider your space & future needs: Think about your kitchen’s layout and any energy-saving options to help keep long-term costs down. Choose kitchen appliance deals that fit your lifestyle and won’t add unnecessary clutter.
Create a wish list: Having a clear list of the appliances you need can help you stay focused and avoid impulse purchases when sales roll around. You'll want to strike a good balance between a sweet saving and a solid investment.
Shop out of season: Some of the appliance deals pop up at unexpected times – I've often found great deals on ice cream makers in winter, for example. Timing your purchases can lead to big savings.
Take advantage of clearance sales: Discounts have already begun on older kitchen appliances as brands prepare to release their 2025 models. This is a great time to upgrade your kitchen essentials without paying premium prices. Be sure to check our expert reviews for in-depth insights on performance, reliability, and whether these models still offer the best value for your needs.
The best times of year to find appliance deals
Black Friday kitchen appliance deals
Black Friday 2024, which fell on November 29 (the day after Thanksgiving), remains one of the biggest shopping days in the U.S. However, many retailers launched deals earlier through 'Black Friday Week' or even month-long 'Black November' sales, allowing shoppers to snag kitchen appliance deals ahead of the holiday rush.
For smaller kitchen appliance deals, like the best air fryers, best blenders, best juicers and best coffee makers, Black Friday draws a tie with the Amazon Prime Day sales in July. You can find up to 50% off Ninja blenders and Nespresso machines during the Black Friday weekend. Last year, I even saw Wayfair drop secret discounts on my favorite Le Creuset cookware, so you can upgrade your cookware without stretching your budget.
Following Black Friday, Cyber Monday continued to be a top day for scoring deals on appliances, particularly coffee makers, blenders, and air fryers. Many retailers extended their Black Friday discounts into Cyber Week, often adding exclusive online codes, giving shoppers another chance to save big on top brands before the holiday sales season wraps up.
Holiday season kitchen appliance deals
Holiday season kitchen appliance deals may not be as steep or widespread as Black Friday and Cyber Monday discounts, but they still offer solid savings across popular brands. While doorbuster deals may be behind us, you can still find competitive prices on essential appliances like air fryers, blenders, and coffee makers, especially from top names like Ninja, KitchenAid, and Nespresso.
Unlike the frenzy of Black Friday, holiday sales tend to focus more on older models and bundles. Retailers like Amazon, Best Buy, and Wayfair often feature exclusive holiday promotions, allowing you to upgrade your kitchen or find a good holiday gift without paying full price.
As the holiday season continues, I'll be keeping an eye out for limited-time flash sales and last-minute discounts. While the price drops may not be as dramatic, holiday deals still offer a chance to save on premium appliances before the new year.
January kitchen appliance deals
January is another good month for purchasing kitchen appliances, especially if you’re planning to refresh your space for the new year. Retailers frequently extend holiday sales into January, offering substantial discounts on essentials like refrigerators, dishwashers, and small appliances. With new models hitting stores in spring, this period often sees markdowns on last year’s versions, providing great value on larger appliances. Also, I've noticed that the 'new year, new you' trend can bring enticing deals on health-focused appliances like juicers and blenders – perfect for anyone looking to embrace healthier habits as the year begins.
Amazon Prime Day kitchen appliance deals
Amazon Prime Day might be my favorite time of year to find small appliance deals. The event is held annually in mid-July (with an additional fall event in October), Prime Day brings deep discounts across Amazon’s extensive selection of coffee makers, air fryers, juicers and more.
Last Prime Day, I found savings of up to 55% off on air fryer brands like Instant and Cosori. For Prime members, early access to lightning deals and extra savings on select items sweeten the deal even further, while those new to Prime often qualify for a free 30-day trial – so everybody can enjoy the discounts and speedy delivery.
Fourth of July kitchen appliance deals
Refrigerators, ovens and dishwashers are always in season, but most people don’t think about seasonal appliances like Christmas bakeware in the summer, or slushie and ice cream makers in the winter. So you may find deals on certain appliances when not many customers are thinking about buying them!
Back to school kitchen appliance deals
Back-to-school season might seem a random time to shop for appliances, but with students moving into dorms and apartments, August and September bring excellent appliance deals. It’s a great time to shop smaller appliances, like mini-fridges, portable blenders, and compact air fryers – even if you're not a student!
FAQS
When is the next nationwide kitchen appliance sale?
Some of the best kitchen appliance deals are still online after the Black Friday and Cyber Monday rush. While holiday sales continue to offer decent discounts, the next official nationwide sale will occur after Christmas, during the Clearance Sales and the first weeks of January. These events focus on clearing out any remaining inventory, as retailers make room for new models and seasonal stock.
