Vitamix 5200 Professional-Grade Blender
Vitamix 5200 Professional-Grade BlenderNormally $550, Now $300
We've recommend this blender since Kenji reviewed it back in 2014. And it never goes on sale except on events like Black Friday and Prime Day. Its tapered blending jar draws ingredients downward, creating a vortex that yields silky-smooth results. It also couldn't be easier to use: just two switches and a speed dial make up its control panel. If you don't own a Vitamix and have been considering one, don't miss out on $250 off.

Anova Precision Vacuum Sealer Pro
Anova Precision Vacuum Sealer ProNormally $150, Now $100 at Amazon, Anova Culinary, and Williams Sonoma
We tested 10 vacuum sealers over a period of four-ish months and this model from Anova was our top pick. It has no refractory period (that's the time between sealings), double seal technology that stood up to our long sous vide test, built-in bag storage, a bag cutter, and more.

Yosukata Carbon Steel Wok PanNormally $70, Now $57
Our pre-seasoned wok pick is $13 off (clip the 5% off coupon pre-checkout) and features a helper handle and a main handle that's made from wood and stays cool. It's easy to clean and solidly heat responsive, too.

Instant Vortex Plus Air Fryer
Instant Pot Vortex Plus 6-in-1 Air Fryer Oven ComboNormally $130, Now $70
We recently tested air fryers and (surprise!) we really like them. If you've been asking yourself if an air fryer's worth it, the answer is yes if you have the space and value ease (read: fast/no pre-heating and speedy cooking). This smaller sibling of our favorite model from Instant is on sale and has all the same winning features. We particularly like its digital control panel that has a knob for scaling up/down the temperature and time.

Baratza Encore Conical Burr Coffee Grinder
Baratza Encore Conical Burr Coffee GrinderNormally $160, Now $135 at Amazon and Williams Sonoma
Our favorite budget-friendly grinder for coffee geeks boasts 40 grind settings and burrs that can actually be replaced (many burr grinders don't have this feature, which renders them useless once their burrs wear down after some years). We found the Encore to be consistent and just easy to use all-around.
Serious Eats / Vicky Wasik
-
KRUPS Belgian Waffle Maker
KRUPS Belgian Waffle Maker With Removable PlatesNormally $80, Now $49
Our budget-friendly Belgian waffle maker pick is 39% off today, making it even more cost conscious. It has some great features, too: its large cooking surface can fit four waffles at a time, it has dishwasher-safe removable plates, and it can be placed upright for more compact storage in a cabinet or pantry.

-
OXO Brew Conical Burr Coffee Grinder
OXO Brew Conical Burr Coffee GrinderNormally $100, Now $80
Our favorite "coffee grinder for most people" is currently $20 off. We found it to be simple, intuitive, and consistent. As we said in our review, "This is about as inexpensive as a burr grinder gets before the grind quality really starts to fall off, making it a good starter grinder for most home-brewed coffee drinkers."

ROCCBOX by Gozney Portable Outdoor Pizza Oven
Gozney Roccbox Portable Wood and Gas Pizza OvenNormally $499, Now $399 at Amazon and Gozney
Kenji's favorite pizza oven is 20% off at the moment. We found the Gozney to be "an incredible little oven with simple, reliable operation." It easily maintained its wood-fired temperatures and churned out fantastic pies. The price above is for a gas-only oven, though you can add a dual-fuel wood burner for about $80 more.

Great Jones Saucy
Great Jones SaucyNormally $105, Now $75
One of our favorite sauciers is $30 off at the moment. It's easy to stir in, it looks beautiful, and it's heat responsive. It's also induction compatible.

KitchenAid Pro 5 Plus 5 Quart Bowl-Lift Stand Mixer
KitchenAid Pro 5 Plus 5 Quart Bowl-Lift Stand MixerNormally $450, Now $250
A KitchenAid mixer is a must-have in any kitchen. And while this isn't our favorite stand mixer, it's still pretty good and we prefer bowl-lift models over tilt-head ones (more power). Plus, it's $200 off at the moment.

-
OXO Brew 8-Cup Coffee Maker
OXO Brew 8-Cup Coffee MakerNormally $200, Now $160 at Amazon, OXO, and Williams Sonoma
This brewer is so impressive we wrote a whole article about it. The 8-cup model from OXO has unique features that no other brewer has, like a drip tray and a smaller filter basket insert. In our testing, this coffee maker showed precise temperature stability, and brewed some of the best tasting coffee. It’s a great snag for anyone looking to upgrade their coffee maker without breaking the bank.

Thermoworks Thermapen ONE
ThermoWorks Thermapen ONENormally $99, Now $70
Fact: every cook should own an instant-read thermometer. And our favorite one, the Thermapen ONE, is 30% off for Black Friday. You can't beat its accuracy, speed, and usability features (like its auto-rotating screen and backlight). ThermoWorks has some other great deals going on and the rest of their site is 15% off, too.

Swedish Wholesale Swedish Dish Cloths
Swedish Wholesale Swedish Dish Cloths - 10 PackNormally $25, Now $16
Swedish dish cloths are like a reusable hybrid between a sponge and a paper towel. In fact, a single one can replace up to 15 rolls of paper towels—a manufacturer claim we actually find to be fairly accurate.

KitchenAid Full-Size Dish Drying Rack
KitchenAid Full Size Dish Drying RackNormally $85, Now $40
Our favorite dish drying rack is 54% off and is the one to get if you wash a lot of dishes. In our testing, it held all of the plates, bowls, glasses, and cookware we placed on it with ease. Its drainage mat slid nicely out too, for cleanup.

Solo Stove Bonfire 2.0
Solo Stove Bonfire 2.0Normally $400, Now $225 at Solo Stove
This past summer we tested the Solo Stove Bonfire (and its grill hub) and came away recommending both. The portable, relatively compact Solo Solo stove has pretty fantastic heat retention thanks to its dual-walled construction and vents at the bottom. And if you're looking to do some live fire cooking at home or at a campsite, the grill hub's is also on sale for $105 off.

All-Clad D3 Stainless-Steel Frying Pan Cookware Set, 10- and 12-Inch
All Clad D3 Stainless Steel Frying Pan Cookware SetNormally $230, Now $161
All-Clad makes some of the best high-quality stainless steel skillets around (it wasn't named a winner in our testing due to price considerations). And while we're normally adverse to cookware sets, this on-sale one from All-Clad includes just a 12- and 10-inch skillet—two sizes we find essential for most kitchens.
Serious Eats / Vicky Wasik
-
Great Jones Hot Dish
Great Jones Hot DishNormally $75, Now $40
One of our favorite casserole dishes is nearly 50% off. We particularly like its retro print design and wide, looped handles. They were easy to grip onto even with bulky oven mitts on.
-
Jo Chef Superior RX Kitchen Torch
Jo Chef Superior RX Kitchen TorchNormally $40, Now $25
Our compact kitchen torch recommendation features a refillable, butane canister, a reliable trigger start, and lots of power (it was one of the fastest of the butane models we tested). Steak, crème brûlée, torch hei: this model can do it.

Breville Smart Oven Convection Toaster Oven
Breville BOV800XL Smart OvenNormally $270, Now $216 at Amazon and Sur La Table
We tested eight toaster ovens to land on our top pick: the Breville Smart Oven. It produces consistent results, looks nice on the countertop (that's shiny stainless steel, for you), and has a sleek LCD screen and easy to use control dials.

Le Creuset Signature Round Deep Dutch Oven, 5.25 Qt
Le Creuset Deep Dutch OvenNormally $380, Now $199 at Amazon and Sur la Table
This slightly smaller (but still roomy) cousin to our winning Dutch oven is a great investment that will no doubt encourage much braising, stewing, and perhaps even baking. There are multiple color options for sale at the moment.

Ooni Koda 16 Pizza Oven
Ooni Koda 16 Pizza OvenNormally $600, Now $480 at Williams Sonoma
Thinking ahead to the spring, it's smart to invest in an outdoor pizza oven now—especially when the Ooni Koda 16 is $120 off. This gas-powered oven heats up to over 900°F, cooking pizza in about a minute. Unlike many other Ooni ovens, its propane connector and controls are on the right side (instead of the back), which makes it easier to ignite and adjust. It's wider, too, so it can fit larger, 16-inch pies.

Material The Table Knives
Material Table KnivesNormally $90, Now $72
While these weren't named our favorite steak knives, we still really liked them.

The knives are available in four color options, as well as mixed set (one knife in each color).

Fellow Stagg EKG Gooseneck Kettle
Fellow Stagg EKG Electric Pour-Over KettleNormally $165, Now $132 at Fellow
The Stagg EKG dominated our temperature accuracy test, and its weighted handle and angled spout make it the easiest kettle to control while pouring. While we love it for pourover coffee, its variable temperature makes it an ideal choice for loose leaf tea as well.

We tested this all-in-one coffee maker for an upcoming review, and were impressed by its fully automated grinding and brewing. The Spinn uses a centrifuge chamber to extract coffee and offers everything from espresso to brewed coffee to iced coffee, all within 60 seconds. While the flavor quality be slightly lower than traditional brew methods, it's a great single-serve option that we recommend over capsule machines.

All of its colors appear to be 32% off for Black Friday.
