Black Friday is nearly here, which you’ve probably noticed by the massive number of emails reminding you of that fact. If you’ve been eyeing a kitchen gadget for sale at the online retailer Amazon.com, either to improve your own cooking or baking experience or as a gift for the holidays, you might just want to slow your roll for Black Friday.
While you might not get the exact item you covet right now, Amazon puts plenty of bestsellers on sale for Black Friday (many discounts have already started). Paying full price for something you can undoubtedly get cheaper in another week just doesn’t make sense.
Here are six kitchen gadgets on Amazon you should wait to buy on Black Friday.
Induction Heating Pressure Rice Cooker
If rice is a staple meal in your home, it’s tempting to get the top of the line rice cooker right now. And certainly this Cuchen rice cooker with “thermo guard”– to keep your rice warm longer — and steam auto clean sure sounds like an excellent idea. But at nearly $210 (and that’s with Prime!), you should instead hold on for just a little bit longer and take your pick of rice cookers at significantly lower prices.
Cooluli 10L Mini Fridge
Mini fridges can be a charming addition to a bedroom, office, dorm room or den for keeping food, drinks and even skin care or medication cool and accessible. As convenient as they are, don’t overspend. Wait until all the Black Friday deals are rolling out. This Coolului desk-top mini fridge is $71.99 on Amazon, so you might want to wait for a sale.
Keurig K-Elite Single Serve K-Cup Pod Coffee Maker
Keurig’s are great for convenience, variety of coffee flavors and making sure you get a delicious cup of coffee in hand in record time. Don’t jump the gun on this K-Elite version, even with its strength and temperature control — the fact is, you’ll find all manner of Keurig machines on sale at Amazon for Black Friday, and more than a few likely to be under $107. This one also might go on sale.
Cebory 3-in-1 Electric Stand Mixer
Eager bakers live for a good electric mixer — and this Cebory 10 speed, 6-quart model is certainly a tempting choice for baking aficionados. Not only does it come in shiny bright colors, like this cherry red version, it has all the necessary implements, like a dough hook, beater and whisk and more. However, with Black Friday approaching, there’s a chance that at $169.99, a brand name one like KitchenAid might also be on sale for a competitive deal.
Cuisinart Belgian Waffle Maker
If breakfast is your favorite meal, you could easily set your sights (and stomach) on this Cuisinart Belgian waffle maker, with six “browning” levels and easily removable plates for easy cleaning, it sure sounds good and is a trusted name in kitchenware. However, at $92, you can hang on just a little longer for a version that is both wallet and waffle friendly.
Wolfgang Puck XL Reversible Grill Griddle
If space saving is important in your home, kitchen, dorm or apartment, it’s understandable that you’d be checking out this Wolfgang Puck XL reversible grill griddle to cook in small spaces. After all, it’s dishwasher safe, heats to 400ºF and makes cooking simpler. But for essentially $100, why not see what deals Black Friday brings?
