Nina's extra-large single basket air fryer is 50% off right now, making it the perfect time to try out the smart cooking appliance if you missed out before. The 5.5-quart, family-size capacity allows you to cook up to 3 pounds of fries, chicken wings, or even pumpkin seeds, if you'd like. You'll want to take advantage of its multi-function features, as it goes beyond air-frying with its air roast, bake, reheat, or dehydrate features (hello, homemade dried fruit). One reviewer touted that it was "one of the best purchases we’ve ever made" and uses it to "prepare healthy meals without using oil, and the taste is still amazing."

It's shocking how much use you get from a blender, beyond just making smoothies and margaritas (like these delicious carrot cake overnight oats). With its 64-ounce container, stainless steel blades, and high-capacity motor, you can try out your new delicious finds without worrying about this blender wearing out. Plus, in case you are concerned about having yet another appliance you have to clean up in the kitchen, this one comes with self-cleaning capabilities, saving you time and stress while meal-prepping. One reviewer said this blender "opened a whole new world of cooking" for them." Although admitting it was an investment (except right now it's 45% off!), they got theirs "almost [three] years ago" and it "still works like it did when it was new."

Turning your home into the hottest neighborhood café on the block is that much easier with this deeply discounted Nespresso espresso machine. You can brew up a range of coffees, from double espressos for those too-early Christmas mornings to frothy cappuccinos. While it's only compatible with Nespresso pods, you do have up to 30 options to choose from, making it a worthy pick if you want cafe-style brews without the price tag. Plus, at only 8.6 inches wide and 14 inches long, you won't overwhelm your counter or home office desk space with this machine. One reviewer appreciated that it "creates rich, creamy froth in seconds" and the "coffee tastes amazing, just like a café."

Making rice can come with challenges, including getting the texture just right and waiting around for it to finish cooking. This Cuckoo rice cooker cooks up to 6 cups of rice in about 15 minutes, opening you up to a world of perfectly cooked rice, from sticky rice to flavorful brown rice. By keeping the rice sealed under pressure as it cooks, you end up with tasty results every time. However, you aren't just limited to rice, as you can use it to steam vegetables, make baby food, or make oatmeal. One reviewer used it for a wide range of recipes, "from soups to desserts," appreciating that it "makes cooking dinner a breeze."
