Vitamix hand blender
Williams Sonoma
“The performance of this hand blender is unbeatable. It effortlessly crushes ice, whips up dressings and prepares super-soft soups. It also features an easy-grip handle and variable speeds that you can easily switch between with your thumb. The attachment can also be removed for easy cleaning. Right now it’s $25 off.” — Riddley Gemperlein-Schirm, senior business editor
Breville, the Joule Oven Air Fryer Pro
Amazon
“I’m obsessed with this air fryer toaster: I use it to make toast in the morning, heat up a slice of pizza for lunch, and often use it to bake, fry, or deep-fry dinner. The results are always amazing – fried chicken is perfectly cooked and juicy, with a crispy skin, while air-fried fish fingers are always crispy-crispy. In addition, it not only has a convection function, but also a super convection function, which can shorten the cooking time by 10 to 15 minutes. And now that it’s $110 cheaper, there are no excuses not to add this gem of a toaster/air fryer/mini convection oven into your life.” — Grace Kelly, Associate Commerce Editor
All-Clad Nonstick Pans, Set of 2
Amazon
“I use my All-Clad nonstick pans almost every day to reheat leftovers or make a quick breakfast before work. They heat evenly and can be placed in the oven, making them great for frying eggs, cooking salmon, and even deep enough to make sauces. I love that they are lightweight and easy to clean – I always hand wash them and they last beautifully for well over a year. At almost 50% off, this is a fantastic deal.” — Katherine Gallagher, Associate Commerce Editor
Bodum Bistro Electric Milk Frother
Amazon
“I use my milk frother often, especially when the temperatures drop. I’m literally looking for excuses to add foam to hot drinks. An electric milk frother is a real revolution in making really good, creamy coffee or matcha latte at home. This model from Bodum is compact, easy to use and easy to clean. It performed well in our milk frother test, producing a dense, stable foam that held together well after pouring. If you’re looking for a practical gift for the coffee lover in your life or want to upgrade your coffee accessories, I recommend grabbing this one because it’s 35% off.” — Danielle St. Pierre, business editor
Ateco 4.25 inch offset spatula
Amazon
“Without this small offset spatula from Ateco, I really couldn’t handle most baking projects – especially holiday baking. The smooth, flat surface helps with tasks like smoothing frosting on cakes, spreading chocolate or caramel pools for confectionery, and smoothing dough before it goes into the oven. Since it’s so thin, I also like to use it to remove baked goods from the pan. Because it’s small, I can easily control and maneuver it, making it particularly good for detailed work. I’ve had mine for over seven years and it still looks like new even after going through professional kitchens. At just over $5, it’s definitely worth picking up.” —Kristin Montemarano, grocery writer
Nordic Ware Bakers Delight Set of 3 Baking Trays
Amazon
“There are so many great deals out there at the moment, but sometimes I feel guilty buying something for myself. Not when it comes to this set. Not only is Nordic Ware a proven workhorse in the kitchen, but this set also includes three sheet pans at an absolute rock bottom price. This deal can’t be beat, and I know that once they arrive at my house, I’ll be putting them to good use – for all holiday cooking, including Christmas cookies, as well as for quick weeknight sheet pan dinners during this busy season, and well into the New Year in and beyond.” — Brierley Horton, senior business editor
Yeti Rambler 26-ounce straw cup
Amazon
“It seems like every month there’s a new “It” water bottle, but I’m forever loyal to my Yeti straw cup. It holds a whopping 26 ounces, meaning I don’t have to constantly refill it throughout the workday, and the stainless steel vacuum insulation keeps my drinks ice cold for hours. And like most Yeti products, this thing can take a beating. I’ve knocked it over more times than I can count (and only cleaned it in the dishwasher), and the cup, straw, and lid are all as good as new. I can’t remember the last time I saw this model on sale, so I’m getting one for my husband to stop him stealing mine.” — Katie Macdonald, Editorial Director
GE Opal Nugget Ice Maker
Amazon
“In the six months that this Nugget ice maker sat on our countertop, we probably used it more than we used our toaster. It has all the bells and whistles that most countertop ice makers don’t have: a large removable bin, Wi-Fi connectivity, and an adjustable UV light to protect the ice. The ice nuggets are the perfect size and consistency for everything from cocktails to homemade slushies. It’s not a small investment, but for a device that rarely goes on sale, the 22% discount is huge. Within a week, you’ll be throwing away your ice cube trays.” — Megan Soll, deputy editorial director
Rubbermaid Brilliance 22 Piece Food Storage Container Set
Amazon
“Every kitchen needs a quality container set for organizing and storage, and this set of Rubbermaid containers is currently 35% off. These were my favorite plastic containers I’ve tried so far. They are sturdy and durable and have an airtight seal that keeps food fresh whether I put it in my pantry or in the fridge. I also love how slim and unobtrusive they are. You can easily stack them on shelves or store them in drawers. With 22 containers (plus lids) in five different sizes, you get a variety of options for your space.” — Kristin Montemarano, grocery writer
Lodge 10.25-inch cast iron skillet
Amazon
“This Lodge pan is only $20, which to me is amazing considering how long it lasts and how often you use it. Although raw cast iron requires regular maintenance to improve its durability and nonstick properties, it is well worth the effort. The ideal vessel for searing steaks, I’ve also used it for baked mac and cheese and shakshuka, but the possibilities for what you can cook in this pan – either on the stove or in the oven – are almost endless. And when I say it’s so sturdy and well-built that it could get you through the apocalypse, I’m not kidding.” — Elisabeth Sherman, trade writer
