Black Friday air fryer deals: FAQs
When will the Black Friday air fryer deals start in 2024?
Although Black Friday itself isn't until November 29th, retailers are launching their sales earlier every year, and we're expecting the first Black Friday sales to start several weeks in advance. For example, Amazon used to confine most of its sales to the week surrounding Black Friday, but last year it launched its sale on November 17th - two full weeks before the day itself.
Most deals will end on Cyber Monday (December 2), but some may stick around longer. We'll be keeping this guide updated throughout the whole period to let you know which air fryers are still in stock, which deals are likely to sell out, and which prices have just been cut further.
Is Black Friday the best time to buy an air fryer?
In our experience, Black Friday is definitely one of the best times of year to pick up a new air fryer. As you'll no doubt be aware, air fryers are enormously popular, so the big electrical retailers are all in fierce competition to offer you the most tempting deals and snare as many customers as possible.
We saw some excellent discounts on air fryers during the recent Amazon Prime Day sale, but for Black Friday, all the big stores are competing for your attention, which can result in even lower prices. The big air fryer brands will be holding their own sales too, so we'll be watching out for offers available direct from companies like Ninja, Instant Pot, Tower, Tefal, and Cosori.
What Black Friday air fryer deals do we want to see in 2024?
We're hoping to see some great deals on Ninja air fryers this Black Friday - particularly the innovative Ninja Double Stack, which is a great choice for smaller kitchens. Its two-tier design means you can cook two portions at once, and during our tests we found there was virtually no heat leakage between the two.
Last year's Black Friday air fryer deals were something really special, with prices cut by up to 60%. That meant you could pick up a budget air fryer for the same price as a main course in a mid-range restaurant in a big city, and you could easily pick up an air fryer that would usually be outside your budget.
We're not just talking about obscure brands here, either. There were huge discounts on air fryers like the Ninja Foodi 4-in-1 8-Quart Dual-Basket and the Instant Vortex Plus 10-Quart - both of which received glowing reviews from out expert testers.
Why to trust TechRadar this Black Friday
We've reviewed 16 air fryers (and counting) in 2024, so we know exactly what to look for when you're buying an air fryer, and can steer you away from any that don't live up to their claims. We also know how much each air fryer typically retails for, so we'll only guide you towards the Black Friday deals that represent genuinely great value. If an air fryer has been cheaper earlier in the year, or a discount isn't what it seems, you won't find it here.
