We’re committed to finding our readers the very best deals on the very best kitchen gear, so we’d be remiss to not bring your attention to Amazon’s secret kitchen outlet, a little-known section on Amazon filled with overstock and clearance items. We sorted through the pages of sales to round up the 10 best deals, including the most powerful Vitamix smart blender, the best Instant air fryer we’ve tested, and a festive fall Staub pumpkin baking dish—all for up to 48% off.
The Best Amazon Kitchen Outlet Deals, at a Glance:
Vitamix A3500 Ascent Series Smart Blender
This blender delivers the powerful blending we know and love from Vitamix, but with additional bells and whistles like automated presets, an LED touchscreen, and a built-in timer. Right now, it’s $100 off.
Instant Vortex Plus 6-Quart Air Fryer
Over years of testing, the Instant Pot Vortex Plus has been our favorite air fryer time and time again. Simply put: It produces the crispiest fries and the crunchiest chicken wings. This Instant Vortex Plus is on sale and even has an upgraded clear window for tracking your food’s progress.
Cuisinart 9-Cup Food Processor
When we tested food processors, Cuisinart’s 14-cup model was our top budget pick. It powerfully chopped through every test we threw at it and makes for a great affordable option. This similar 9-cup model is now on sale and is ideal for smaller kitchens.
Staub 0.5-Quart Petite Ceramic Pumpkin Baking Dish
We’re in the thick of fall and what better way to celebrate than with a pumpkin-shaped baking dish? Staub makes our favorite baking dish, and this lidded ceramic pumpkin offers the same even heat retention and distribution. Plus, it’s 40% off.
Cuisinart Indoor Pizza Oven
Already a fraction of the price of our favorite indoor pizza ovens from Ooni and Breville, this Cuisinart indoor pizza oven is now even more affordable at $100 off. It impressed us by getting up to 725°F and producing nicely charred pizza crusts.
Dash Mini Waffle Maker
We couldn’t help but shout out this $13 mini waffle maker in our waffle maker review. It’s ideal for casual waffle consumers who like an individual waffle every once in a while.
KitchenAid Gourmet Ice Cream Scoop
Thanks to its extra-long and ergonomically designed handle, this was the most comfortable ice cream scoop we tested. The oval head also carved out beautiful scoops. Grab one on sale ahead of all the ice cream scooping you’ll do for those apple or pumpkin pie slices.
Peugeot Paris Manual Pepper Mill
This pepper mill is speedy, consistent, and comfortable to hold. It also looks great on a kitchen countertop and is now on sale for 35% off.
Zojirushi Insulated Stainless Steel Mug
This Zojirushi mug impressed us by keeping its contents piping hot (or ice cold) for over eight hours. It’s also easy to carry and smooth to sip from. Right now, it’s a whopping 48% off at Amazon’s kitchen outlet.
Victorinox Serrated Paring Knife
The humble-yet-mighty paring knife is essential to cooks. We’ve been fans of Victorinox paring knives for years thanks to their durability and affordability. This serrated version is on sale for just $12.
