Who has the best air fryer deals on Black Friday?
For popular products like air fryers, you’ll typically find the best deals at big-name retailers like Target, Walmart and Best Buy. Amazon is often the best place to start because they usually carry the largest selection of air fryer brands, increasing your chances of scoring a can’t-miss deal.
But you shouldn’t overlook possible deals on manufacturers’ sites. Brands like Ninja, Breville, Instant Pot, Cuisinart and Cosori often offer discounts on their air fryers for Black Friday, so if you see a sale at a well-known retailer, it’s a good idea to check the manufacturer’s site to compare prices and ensure you get the best deal.
Which brands sell the cheapest air fryers on Black Friday?
You can find Black Friday air fryer deals on nearly every brand, but the savings differ from manufacturer to manufacturer. Most years, we see the lowest prices from brands like Ninja, Gourmia, Bella and Power XL.
Are air fryers worth the money?
Air fryers are essentially mini convection ovens, which means they have a fan to circulate hot air around your food to cook it faster and get it crispier. If you prepare a lot of foods that are traditionally fried, like french fries, chicken tenders, chicken nuggets and onion rings, you’ll love how crispy an air fryer can get them without all the oil that traditional frying uses.
But most standalone air fryers are fairly small, so their capacity may not be large enough to cook for a family. Fortunately, air fryer ovens usually hold more food, with some models large enough to accommodate a 14-pound turkey. An air fryer oven typically offers more cooking functions, too, so in addition to air-frying, baking and toasting, you can often broil, dehydrate, slow cook and more.
