In basket-style formats, Cosori and Instant Pot lead with notable price cuts: Cosori's 9-in-1 TurboBlaze is listed at $119.99, an 8% drop from $129.99, and Instant Pot's Vortex is $99.99, about 29% off its $139.99 list price. Both units are praised for ease of use, compact footprints and straightforward cleanup, with Cosori offering a six-quart capacity in a compact frame and Instant Pot touting its EvenCrisp technology and quick preheat.
Cosori's model includes a preheat program that adjusts cooking time based on temperature, and a nonstick basket that detaches for easy cleaning. Instant Pot Vortex adds one-touch presets and a quick 3- to 5-minute preheat, delivering crispy results with low oil use. The two brands’ listings emphasize speed and simplicity for everyday meals.
Oven-style units, shaped like countertop toaster ovens, remain popular for families who want a broader range of cooking functions. CHEF iQ MiniOven is on sale for $399.99, down 33% from $599.99, and comes with the CHEF iQ app to monitor meals remotely. It can handle baking, broiling, roasting and air frying, with a wide 70- to 500-degree range and the ability to roast up to 30% faster than conventional air fryers. Instant Pot Vortex Plus, priced at $109.95, is 35% off its $159.99 list, and offers a six-quart capacity, a large viewing window and built-in odor filters to minimize smells. 
Large-capacity and multi-cooker models cater to families and batch cooks. The Ninja DoubleStack is $189.95, a 14% cut from $219.99, and stacks food vertically to maximize capacity without a wider footprint. It can cook four different things at once and includes a Smart Finish feature that times components to finish together, with an eight-quart overall capacity that scales up batch cooking. The Instant Pot Pro Crisp 11‑in‑1 is $229.95, 15% off from $269.99, offering both pressure cooking and air frying with two removable lids to switch seamlessly between modes. For an all-in-one option that covers air frying, baking, dehydrating and more, the Chefman multifunctional air fryer is $79.99, 43% off its $139.99 list, providing a 10-liter capacity and 17 preset buttons on its touchscreen; it also includes an interior light for monitoring.

Rounding out the lineup are models that emphasize portability and space-saving without sacrificing functionality. The deals page highlights a mix of budget-friendly and premium appliances, reflecting broader consumer interest in healthier cooking and time-saving kitchen tech. The Instant Pot Pro Crisp 11‑in‑1 remains a flagship option for buyers seeking both pressure cooking and air frying in a single device.
For consumers seeking the broader capabilities of an all-in-one device, Instant Pot Pro Crisp stands out for its dual-lid design that lets users switch between pressure cooking and air frying without swapping appliances. The eight-quart capacity remains useful for family meals or batch cooking, and the price point of $229.95 represents a meaningful saving relative to the usual list.
Compact and budget-minded buyers aren’t left out. Cosori Lite Mini at $59.99 and Chefman TurboFry 2-quart at $38.61 provide entry points into air frying without taking up much counter space or budget. These smaller models, while not designed for large family meals, are positioned to deliver crispy results for individuals or couples with quick, daily use.
Analysts say the current round of deals mirrors broader retail interest in kitchen gadgets that combine convenience with healthier cooking options. Air fryers have become a staple in many homes because they mimic fried textures with little to no oil, offering quicker cooking times than a traditional oven and lower energy use compared with full-size appliances. The market for kitchen gadgets continues to expand as consumers seek versatile devices that blend multiple functions into a single countertop unit.
From a shopping perspective, buyers should weigh space, capacity and the range of features when selecting an air fryer. Basket-style models generally suit snacks and small meals, while oven-style and multi-cooker formats appeal to families that cook multiple courses at once. Cleaning remains a practical consideration: many baskets and trays are nonstick and dishwasher-safe, though care instructions vary by brand. Energy usage for modern air fryers typically aligns with toasters ovens rather than full-size ovens, but actual consumption depends on the model and cooking load.
