November 25, 2022November 26, 2022 Stan

Did you hear that? It was the sound of the Black Friday klaxon going off because, after weeks of waiting, the sale extravaganza has officially begun. We’re talking stellar discounts on everything from tech and gaming to laptops, mattresses and home appliances ramped up to the nines.

Savvy shoppers will know that major players in the game – including Amazon, Argos, Currys and John Lewis & Partners – started their Black Friday sales weeks in advance, but many brands and retailers wait until now before unleashing their best discounts. Whether you want to save big on beauty, fashion or kids’ toys ahead of the Christmas shopping scramble, now’s the time to make your move.

When it comes to appliances, one that’s been a hot property during this year’s event is the air fryer. This popular piece of kit enables you to fry up a storm with very minimal oil – but, what’s more, research indicates it serves as an energy-efficient way to cook, costing just 17p a day to run. Thanks to Black Friday, you can now get one a whole lot cheaper.

Whether you have a particular brand in mind or would like to find the most cost-effective option, you really couldn’t ask for a better time to buy. Top appliances from the likes of Ninja, Philips and Russell Hobbs are being slashed in price across the Black Friday weekend and right into Cyber Monday (which marks the end of the official weekend of sales).

With the sheer number of deals to wade through, the Black Friday sales can be a daunting experience. But worry not, as we’ll be here to help you through your deal-hunting quest, with the best savings on air fryers as and when they drop. Let’s go…

Instant vortex clearcook 7.6l dual air fryer, black: Was £200, now £150, Argos.co.uk

The main selling point of this appliance is probably its two separate compartments, meaning you can air fry your fish and chips at the same time. Thanks to its sync finish, you can make sure they’re ready at the same time too. With a generous 7.6l capacity, it can cook about five to six portions. Similar to an oven, its windows enable you to check on the cooking process every now and then, without having to open the basket and let out heat. Its settings include air fry, roast, grill, bake, reheat and dehydrate, and its temperature ranges from 49C to 205C. This one is selling fast, so may not be available to buy from your nearest store.

Ninja foodi max OP500UK: Was £229, now £199, Very.co.uk

(Very)

Ninja has long been the market leader for multi-cookers, and the Ninja foodi max 9-in-1 multi-cooker is the biggest and most function-packed model the company has made. And for Black Friday, Very has knocked off a healthy, oil-free £30 from its original price.

“The enormous 7.5l capacity is great for cooking for bigger families, and the wider, shallower dimensions of the main cooking pot means it’s much better for cooking things that need a bit more room, like a whole roast chicken or a joint of ham,” our writer said in their review of the multi-cooker. “We had great results using the Ninja foodi max. Using the pressure cooker setting, for example, we were able to make seriously flavourful soup in 15 minutes, without stirring once.”

While we haven’t tried this specific model, we have reviewed another Instant Pot multi cooker, and our tester said: “We loved the results from the Pro Crisp. We were impressed by the speed with which it produced crispy sweet potato fries – the results were actually much better than the standalone air fryer we had.”

When is Black Friday 2022?

The date of Black Friday 2022 in the UK is 25 November. But for most brands and retailers, the sale spans the weekend until the following Monday, known as Cyber Monday.

That being said, many retailers taking part in the big Black Friday sale start their events earlier and earlier each year. Because of this, you would have seen some of your favourite online giants, such as Amazon, Currys, AO, John Lewis & Partners and Argos dropping discounts weeks in advance.

When is Cyber Monday 2022?

Cyber Monday is the Monday after Black Friday and will therefore be held on Monday 28 November in 2022. It started life as an online-only event, but many deals are now also available in-store. It serves as your last chance to bag a bargain on an air fryer, as well as other products across tech, gaming, laptops, mattresses, home appliances and more.
