These Are My Favorite Kitchen Appliance Deals During Amazon’s Big Spring Sale
A good kitchen appliance will serve you for many years. And like any long-term relationship, you need to make sure it’s a good fit before you invest your time or money in it. Right now, thanks to Amazon’s big spring sale , you have the opportunity to jumpstart a relationship with the kitchen appliance you’ve been flirting with, and at prices that seem less risky. Here are some of my favorite deals coming this week.
Vitamix Ascension X3
Whenever there are such big sales, it’s completely normal to ask yourself if today is the day to finally splurge on a Vitamix blender. I don’t know your budget, but after testing the Vitamix Ascent X5 ( read more here ), I can tell you that it is the most powerful blender I’ve ever used. Sad news: the X5 is not for sale. Great news: Vitamix X3 is now on sale. The X3 model has the three most common presets you’ll use in any Vitamix anyway (smoothies, frozen dessert, soup), and you can always use the regular Start, Stop, and Pulse buttons to take care of the sauces and nut butters you want. The power and craftsmanship are still at the level you would expect from the Vitamix brand. With a relatively compact size (9.75″ x 7.75″ x 17″), this model can easily be stored in a low cabinet or pantry.
Cuisinart Air Fryer Toaster Oven
My top pick for the best air fryer overall is almost 40% off right now. The Cuisinart Air Fryer Toaster Oven is a large oven-style air fryer with a wide viewing window and analog rotary controls for setting time, temperature and fan speed. What sets this air fryer apart from all other mini convection ovens is the very quiet convection fan. Read my full review of this powerful and discreet device here .
Instant Vortex
Let it never be said that I have left behind the basket shaped air fryer lovers. My favorite basket style air fryer, the Instant Vortex, is currently 40% off in Amazon’s big spring sale. This device is a real workhorse. It browns and crisps consistently, the basket is extremely easy to clean, and it’s light enough to lift, move, and store if you’re short on counter space. This air fryer is currently $83.99 , down from the regular $139.99. This air fryer is a bargain right now.
KRUPS Waffle iron
Every functional kitchen needs a waffle iron. It may surprise you, but it’s not just for making waffles. A waffle iron is a versatile appliance with a special toothed pattern that, when pressed into ingredients, increases surface area and allows for even crispier, more flavorful food with increased browning and caramelization. You can make waffles, hamburger patties , cheese , rice , shrimp or even entire sandwiches . This waffle iron from KRUPS is currently 25% off and comes with removable plates that I highly recommend for easy cleaning.
Instant Pot Duo
The Instant Pot has lost some of its social appeal—that’s normal, but that doesn’t mean it’s not an awesome kitchen appliance. In fact, the loss of novelty makes this the best time to buy. Note that this Instant Pot Duo Crisp Ultimate Lid 6.5-Quart Wi-Fi Lid is currently 30% off, and it’s a full-fledged slow cooker that’s Wi-Fi enabled and apparently has over two thousand recipes available through the Instant app.
This is the biggest discount this air fryer has ever had, so it’s worth checking out if you’re in the market. It’s important to note that this is part of the Instant Duo line, which means it also has air frying capabilities. That’s quite an achievement for something that gets its name from steam pressure.
Food processor
A food processor can be a huge help in the kitchen, especially when preparing large batches of food and prep work that requires repeated chopping, slicing, or chopping. This highly rated food processor from Cuisinart is currently 20% off. This Cuisinart food processor has a 14-cup container, so it’s on the larger side of the spectrum, and it has a simple two-button operating system. The package includes a standard S-shaped knife, a slicing and shredding attachment, and a dough kneading attachment. If you’ve been looking for a professional quality food processor, this is it.
