I'm a chef turned kitchen appliance expert – I've found 8 discounts on my favorite appliances in the rival sales (and they're better than Prime Day)
From luxury mixers to low-price air fryers, it's the perfect time to shop around


As a trained chef turned kitchen appliance editor and deals hunter, I’ve spent the last 48 hours scrolling the web for the best appliance discounts out there. I’m on the hunt for products I trust – those that strike the perfect balance between performance, style, and value for money.
So far, I’ve uncovered some eye-widening deals to rival Amazon Prime Day. I've even found my favorite Ninja DoubleStack air fryer for $30 less than the Amazon price.
Whether you’re upgrading your kitchen, prepping for the holiday season, or are just kind enough to justify my marathon search session, do check out these discounts before they go. They were pretty hard to find, so I'm confident you've got the first scoop.
The best kitchen appliance deals that aren't on Amazon
With rival Amazon Prime sales occurring at Target, Wayfair and Walmart, I've been able to scout some of the top-tier deals. If I find anything else worth shouting about, I'll add it to this list.
Artisan® Series 5 Quart Tilt-Head Stand Mixer | Was $499, now $199.99
I've found this refurbished stand mixer on the KitchenAid site, with $250 knocked off the original price. If you've been dreaming of owning the best stand mixer on the market, it's excellent value for money – and KitchenAid offers 1-year warranty, too.

Ninja Double Stack Air Fryer | £299 RPR, $179 on Walmart
This slender air fryer is the one I use at home. I always recommend it to families, since it has four cooking levels and the speediest cooking times. This option on Walmart seems to be the first released model number, but apart from that, I can't see any difference. It's a steal.
My Ninja Double Stack Air Fryer review has more details.
NutriBullet Juicer Pro | Was $199.99, now $117.99 at Wayfair
This quick, simple juicer is perfect for beginners. You can blast through lots of fruit and vegetables without chopping and it comes with handy accessories for storing your juice.

Le Creuset Espresso Cup, Meringue | Was $24, now $12.20 at Le Creuset
As soon as the sales kicked off, my first priority was hunting down Le Creuset deals, since this is my favorite brand for gifting. The sales are slim but I found a few options on Wayfair, including this petite espresso mug. A lovely gift for a caffeine lover.
De'Longhi All In One | Was $389.95, now $199.95 at Wayfair
There's 49% off the original price for this espresso combo. We voted it our best espresso maker for versatility. If you like switching between filter coffee, lattes and capsules, De'Longhi is your best bet. It's just quite big on the countertop.
Samsung Family Hub Side-by-Side Refrigerator with Touch Screen | Was $2,332, Now $1,692 at Wayfair
Our best refrigerator for families is currently reduced at Wayfair. With a beautiful modern design, smart technology, and hundreds of dollars off the RPR.
Ninja Mega Kitchen System | Was $199.99, now $159 at Wayfair This best-selling kit from Ninja comes with a 72-oz. round bowl for large mixes, as well as two blending cups and four different blending blades. It's a bargain at Wayfair.
Instant Pot RIO Chef Series 6 Qt Pressure Cooker & Multi-Cooker | RPR $99.99, $89 at Walmart
I've been testing this brand-new Instant Pot in my kitchen, and delighting in slow-cooked tagines, 7-minute risottos, and comforting chicken soups. This Walmart price is the best I've seen so far.
Le Creuset Heritage Gravy Boat | Was $40.79 now $34 at Wayfair
An elegant addition to any Thanksgiving table, this stoneware gravy boat has a comfortable handle for a steady grip. I love that it's easy to clean, dishwasher-safe, and resistant to chips, scratches and stains.
Cuisinart Air Fryer Toaster Oven | Was $229.99, Now $99
The 57% discount on this oven caught my eye. It's not the best air fryer ever created, but for small spaces it's a solid option. The controls are incredibly straightforward, and you can cook perfect batches of nuggets and pizza rolls in minutes.

FAQS
What are the best sales rivalling Amazon Prime Day?
When Amazon announced that October Prime Day (running from Tuesday, October 8th through Wednesday, October 9th) other retailers started to announce rival sales.
My favorite so far is the Wayfair Big Holiday sale, which has up to 40% off on small kitchen appliances. Walmart's Holiday Kickoff event is also packed with discounts across electronics, home goods, and more. Meanwhile, Target's Circle Week offers exclusive deals on kitchen appliances and home essentials.
It’s the perfect time to shop around and score even bigger savings beyond just Amazon’s event.
