Black Friday is the biggest sales event of the year, so we at Food & Wine take it seriously. To find the best Amazon Black Friday deals, I stuck to gear we’ve tested in our lab and home kitchens. We tested thousands of kitchen products in 2025, and the Amazon Black Friday sale is the prime time to shop for many of our top picks at their lowest prices. Whether it’s an air fryer, espresso machine, or outdoor griddle, knowing that something has passed our rigorous testing makes me confident in recommending it.
Best Tested Deals Overall
- Shopper Favorite: Ninja Creami Ice Cream Maker, $180, originally $230

Our top Amazon Black Friday deals include products our editors use weekly, such as the now 42% off Y Yhy Large Serving Bowls and the Le Creuset 7.25-Quart Round Dutch Oven, one of the best Black Friday cookware deals, in my opinion: I’ve cooked in one for several years, and it shows few signs of aging. Plus, you don’t want to miss shopper- and editor-loved picks like the Ninja Creami Ice Cream Maker and KitchenAid Artisan Series Stand Mixer before these Black Friday kitchen appliance deals are gone. Finally, if you’re looking for low prices, some of the best tools we’ve tested are on sale for $20 or less, from our go-to grill brush to a milk frother.

Best Amazon Black Friday Kitchen Appliance Deals
Every year, Black Friday kitchen appliance deals are some of the first we shop for a few reasons. Kitchen appliances make great holiday gifts, and we’ve found a few standouts under $100, including the Crock-Pot 7-Quart Programmable Slow Cooker. The highly giftable Ninja Creami 7-in-1 Ice Cream Maker is another editor recommendation that’s a shopper favorite year after year, and it’s on sale now.
Not only do appliances see some of the best price cuts, but they’re also some of the quickest items to sell out. We’ve seen air fryers, air fryer toaster ovens, and multi-cookers (like the Instant Pot) go out of stock before the end of the day in years past. Early shoppers can have their pick of big-ticket items, such as a Vitamix blender or a KitchenAid Artisan stand mixer, which we expect to sell out fast.
Ninja Creami Ice Cream Maker
Amazon
Our pick for the best ice cream maker, the Ninja Creami, topped multiple rounds of testing. After using it at home for four years, I can confirm that it’s a top-notch appliance for making ice cream, frozen yogurt, sorbet, and icy drinks. The process is pretty effortless, and I appreciate that all parts can go in the dishwasher.
Breville Smart Oven Air Fryer
Amazon
This smart oven works as both a toaster oven and an air fryer, offering 11 cooking functions, including toast, broil, bake, air fry, and more. You can use the standalone air fry basket to create crispy fries or chicken wings, and the oven rack to cook a pizza.
Ninja Max XL Air Fryer
This large air fryer toaster oven can also roast, broil, dehydrate, and bake, and it has presets for toast, bagels, and pizza. It delivered excellent results in our test with shrimp, wings, and fries.
Vitamix Propel Series 750 Blender
Amazon
I’ve tested the Propel 750, one of our favorite Vitamix blenders, at home for three years, and it’s still the only blender I want to use thanks to its speed, super-smooth pureeing, and dishwasher-safe parts. I love using it in the fall and winter to blend hot or cold ingredients into a ready-to-eat soup. It’s one of the best Black Friday kitchen appliance deals in my opinion.
Breville Pizzaiolo Pizza Oven
Amazon
One of the best indoor pizza ovens we tested, the Breville Pizzaiolo, has an impressive maximum temperature of 750°F and five presets for popular pizza styles. The combination of direct, ambient, and convective heating focuses heat where it’s needed, can leopard-spot the crust while quickly cooking the toppings, and now it’s $200 off.
Crock-Pot 7-Quart Programmable Slow Cooker
Amazon
The Crock-Pot 7-quart is the best large-capacity slow cooker we’ve tested — it’s sturdy, reliable, and easy to use. In our testing, it produced some of our best, fall-off-the-bone short ribs.

Best Amazon Black Friday Coffee Deals
Black Friday has us thinking about saving money over time, not only this weekend. Making coffee at home is a savvy move when lattes seem to cost more by the month, so these coffee machine Black Friday deals are some of the first we’re shopping for this year. If you want the deepest discounts, look no further than Breville espresso machines — the brand that topped our tests. But act fast: The Barista Express is at risk of selling out. You can also find fantastic options under $60, from the Instant Cold Brewer to the Instant 4-in-1 Milk Frother and Steamer.
Breville The Barista Express Espresso Machine
Amazon
This reliable pick from Beville won the title of the best espresso machine we tested, and we’re excited to catch it on sale for $250 off. You can choose between automatic and manual modes, and its integrated grinder, tamper, and frother help you customize your coffee. Marked down to $500, this machine will save you so much money if you’re in the habit of ordering espresso drinks.
Technivorm Moccamaster Cup One Maker
Amazon
The Cup One isn’t a quick single-cup maker, but it’s a great single-cup maker. Eschewing the convenience of pods, this drip maker brews a smooth, bitterness-free pour. Finding it at 33% off is rare, so grab this deal while it lasts.
Braun MultiServe Plus 10-Cup Drip Coffee Maker
Amazon
The MultiServe from Braun is a versatile maker, allowing you to select your pour setting for over ice or cold brew, in addition to a regular drip — in “gold” or bold strengths. Seven size settings, ranging from single cup to full carafe are yours with the turn of a dial. Right now the MultiServe is 33% off during Amazon’s Black Friday sale.
Ninja DualBrew Pro System 12-Cup Coffee Maker
Amazon
If you typically make coffee for one but like the option to brew for a group, we stand by the Ninja DualBrew Pro System as the most versatile single-serve coffee maker. It has a 12-cup capacity and four brewing options — classic, rich, over ice, and specialty — and even the iced setting produced a robust cup in our tests.

Best Amazon Black Friday Grill, Smoker, and Pizza Oven Deals
Whether you’re shopping for a gift or for yourself, Black Friday is arguably the best time to buy a grill or outdoor pizza oven. We’re not used to seeing this many of our favorite outdoor cooking brands on sale, and the discounts are deep. The best Black Friday pizza oven deals include one of the top brands we’ve tested: Gozney. And if a grill tops your list, you’re in luck to find Black Friday grill deals from two of the big names, Traeger and Weber, below. It’s also worth noting that our editor-favorite grill brush is 50% off.
Traeger Ironwood 885 Pellet Grill
Amazon
Traeger grills have a wide range in price, and the Ironwood 885 strikes a balance between useful features and a reasonable price — the $100 Black Friday discount makes it one of the best grill deals available now. In our tests, this pellet grill impressed us with stellar heat retention and recovery, whether we were cooking burgers or pizzas.
GE Profile Smart Indoor Smoker
Amazon
Smoking is primarily an outdoor activity, but this indoor smoker from GE produced better smoke flavor than some outdoor smokers. Smoke filtration, temperature control, and smoke level settings make this an excellent choice for beginners and seasoned smokers alike, and it’s $200 off right now.
Weber Spirit E-325 Gas Grill
Amazon
The Spirit E-325 is an excellent value for a three-burner gas grill and offers precise heat control for its size. Right now, it’s $150 off the regular price — take advantage of the savings while you can.
Grillart Grill Brush and Scraper
Amazon
Almost 1,300 people have left five-star reviews for this grill brush. In our testing against seven other top-selling grill brushes, it earned the top rating for its ease of use and efficiency.

Best Amazon Black Friday Cookware Deals
Cookware is the foundation of any kitchen, and Amazon’s Black Friday sale is the perfect occasion to stock your cabinets with pieces you’ll use for years (with proper care). Our favorites include a Lodge cast iron skillet for just $25, a Le Creuset Dutch oven for $82 off, and a Cuisinart 17-Piece Cookware Set, for over 40% off the usual price — all made of exceptionally durable, non-toxic materials. And speaking of non-toxic cookware, we found two favorites in the category among the Black Friday cookware deals: the Caraway Nonstick Ceramic Cookware Set and the Our Place Always Pan 2.0. Be sure to check these out if you’re ready to swap your old nonstick set.
Lodge 10.25-Inch Pre-Seasoned Cast Iron Skillet
Amazon
A cast iron skillet is one of the most essential cookware purchases you’ll ever make, and no brand is known for cast iron like Lodge. This 10.25-inch pre-seasoned skillet has earned the title of Best Overall year after year in our tests, and our editors use it at home, too. Given that cast iron pans can last a lifetime, $25 is a steal.
All-Clad 12-Inch Nonstick Fry Pan
Amazon
After months of real-world testing, our editors were impressed by the durability of the nonstick coating on this egg pan.
Le Creuset 7.25-Quart Enameled Cast Iron Round Dutch Oven
Amazon
After testing 24 Dutch ovens in our lab, this Le Creuset earned a top spot on our list. We love its nonstick enameled interior and spacious 7.25-quart capacity. I’ve cooked in one at home for several years, and I can attest that it’s worth the investment for its versatility and durability.
Our Place Nonstick Always Pan
Amazon
We’ve tested a lot of cookware sets and found the multifunctional Always Pan ideal for small spaces and small portions. It’s cleverly designed for easy storage: A steamer basket and colander nest right within the pan. It also includes a lid and a beechwood spatula that rests on the pan’s handle, so everything fits together for storage.

Best Amazon Black Friday Kitchen Essential Deals
A variety of tools make up a functioning kitchen, from a chef’s knife you can count on every time you cook to the food storage containers that keep your leftovers fresh in the fridge. Take advantage of Black Friday to fill in the gaps in your kitchen, including some you may not have considered. Pasta bowls, for example, have won over our entire team of editors, and we use them daily for salads, rice bowls, soups, and more. Or consider a vegetable chopper — you’ll wonder how you lived without it, and it’s 50% off! If you don’t have a good meat thermometer, our favorite from Meater is finally on sale, while the Alpha Grillers Instant Read Thermometer is a mere $10 for Black Friday.
Tumbler The Original Rolling Knife Sharpener
Amazon
Your kitchen knives are only as good as their blades’ sharpness, and the Tumbler makes keeping them sharp a simple task — so much so that it topped our list of rolling knife sharpeners.
Gorilla Grip Cutting Board Set
Amazon
This set of three BPA-free plastic cutting boards offers a range of sizes and is perfect for prepping meats and vegetables while avoiding cross-contamination. The set was ranked the best non-slip during our testing, and it’s 44% off during this sale.
Meater Plus Smart Wireless Thermometer
Amazon
Meater’s wireless thermometers consistently rank at the top of our tests. “The app is easy to use, and the meat comes out perfect every time! The temperature accuracy is precise. I like how small and compact this is. Functional and nicely made product. The speed and ease of use for this is the best we have ever used,” says one Amazon shopper.
Y Yhy Large Pasta Bowls
Amazon
Our editors love these pasta bowls for their simple design, sturdy but not too heavy feel, and excellent value. We recommend stocking up while they’re on sale, and you’ll use them for entertaining and everyday meals year-round.
Rubbermaid Brilliance Food Storage Containers with Lids
Amazon
Nearly 103,000 shoppers have given this set of food storage containers a five-star rating for its versatility and value, and our tests back them up. We named this set our Best Value pick for food storage containers.
Mueller Pro-Series Vegetable Chopper

This vegetable chopper is incredibly versatile, with eight blades that you can easily switch out for slicing, grating, shredding, and julienne. We also like that you can cut your veggies right into the detachable plastic container that comes with it.
