13 Best Prime Day Kitchen Deals for Elevating Your Meals in 2025

Amazon Prime Day sales are timed for early summer—the time of enjoyment. The time you spoil yourself. Most of the best Prime Day kitchen deals I recommend here are the ones that WIRED staff members use in their own kitchens, and love in their own lives. The Breville Barista Express ($550), on sale for $200 off, is also the one that has served WIRED reviewer Julian Chokkattu ably for more than five years. Our favorite air fryer, the Typhur Dome 2 ($285), is the basket air fryer I’ve kept proudly on my counter after testing dozens of fryers during this year alone.

WIRED Featured Deals

The Most Popular Semiautomatic Espresso Machine

Breville’s Barista Express is the top-selling espresso machine of its kind on Amazon. It may even be the top-selling semiautomatic espresso machine in the world. It is tried, true, tested—a denizen of WIRED reviewer Julian Chokkattu’s countertop for a half-decade and a longtime resident of WIRED’s list of the best espresso machines. It will grind beans, brew nuanced espresso, and froth milk all while looking lovely and elegant. Even when it’s not on sale, this is the machine that best balances ease, excellence, and value. But holy cow, look at the price on Prime Day—a whopping $200 off. You won’t likely find it lower this year.

The Best Low-Cost Coffee Grinder

Here’s a secret. Your coffee grinder is as important to how your coffee tastes as the device you use to brew your coffee—sometimes even more so. An uneven grind means uneven extraction and uneven flavor. So if you want to get great flavor from fresh-ground beans, I generally tell people you aren’t going to find it from a grinder that costs less than $100. Most days, that’s true! But for Prime Day this year, you can get great flavor for a cool $75. Just note that while this Oxo conical burr grinder is an excellent entry-level grinder for most styles of coffee, it doesn’t grind fine enough for good espresso. Check out the Baratza Encore ESP or the Fellow Opus to get the best entry-level coffee grinders for espresso lovers.

The Best Juicer

The Nama J2 is our top-rated juicer and it felt revolutionary upon its launch. It’s still the best. Press the button and it will happily churn through carrots or spinach or soft berries to make nutrient-rich, tasty juice. It can even make sorbet. Slow juicers are pricey, but this is the cheapest I’ve seen this one.

The Best Possible Air Fryer

The Typhur Dome 2 (8/10, WIRED Recommends) is my new favorite air fryer—and I speak as someone who has tested 30 air fryers this year alone, frying up dozens and dozens of wings and many pounds of french fries. This Typhur fries faster, and crisper, and can even bake up a pizza with actual char on the bottom. The key is a broad, flat basket—and dual heating elements on top and bottom. The smart features are also nice, as is a self-clean function. Anyway, this is a ripping good deal. I don’t expect to see a better one soon.

A Big Instant Pot

This hurkin’ big 8-quart Instant Pot is a little lower-tech than its smart cousins —but you still get most of the functions, and a lot more room to cook up a lamb roast, a Sunday ragu, or a 24-hour Brunswick stew. Sometimes, bigger is better, especially on a slow cooker. “Bigger” is also more than 20 percent off on Prime Day.

A Fabulous Fryer

Dreo

Chefmaker Combi Fryer

The fun Dreo Chefmaker Combi Fryer is the best air fryer for roasts, steaks, and chops because it has steam cooking, a temperature probe, and smart programs to take meat up to temp, then sear the heck out of it while leaving it pink in the middle.

Anthony Bourdain’s Favorite Chef’s Knife

Global

8-Inch Classic Chef’s Knife

Go ahead. Ask a chef about the first “real knife” they bought to start their career. There’s a very good chance they name the Global classic chef’s knife. This Japanese-made stainless steel chef’s knife was long a favorite of Anthony Bourdain, the one he’d recommend to new chefs just starting out. And when Bourdain talked, chefs listened. It’s also among the WIRED Reviews team’s favorites for its lightweight and textured grip—and WIRED knife reviewer Molly Higgins noted it’s especially great for smaller hands like hers. (See WIRED’s guide to the best chef’s knives.) You could go a long time before seeing this knife on sale for less than $100 again.

A Perfect Pan

The Our Place Always Pan 2.0 (8/10, WIRED Recommends) is a toxin-free, nonstick, good-looking, functional, multipurpose, easy-to-clean pan with a bunch of fun accessories. Need I go on? This just might be the only pan you need.

A Smart Thermometer

With four separate probes so you can fill your whole smoker with various cuts or get precise reads on the various parts of a large cut like a brisket, the Meater Pro XL smart thermometer is for serious meat lovers. The super intuitive app lets you monitor the meat from across the patio, and it’s a great way to ensure you never serve up overcooked roasts.

Magic Mill

Pro Food Dehydrator Machine

Going fruit-picking this summer? In our guide to the Best Food Dehydrators, WIRED contributing reviewer Lisa Wood Shapiro deemed this seven-tray model the best dehydrator for people in a hurry, due to its double-time “fast dry” button. As a bonus, its stainless steel trays are dishwasher safe!

Lloyd Pans

Detroit Style Pizza Pan

This isn’t featured in any of our kitchen guides—it’s just something I randomly bought when I decided I wanted to try my hand at making Detroit-style pizza. But Lloyd pans are well-known among cooks for being some of the best baking pans you can buy, and this 10-by-14 deep dish is no exception. The thick, preseasoned finish was both easy to clean and resulted in proper crispy edges on the finished pie. —Kat Merck

Another random kitchen item I like! Although I did mention these in my review of the controversial KitchenAid Evergreen stand mixer (7/10, WIRED Review), noting that I proof bread dough straight in them all the time. I bought my set years ago, and they now come with a fabric liner, though I recommend not using that if you want to get a neat swirl design on your finished boule. —Kat Merck

This is our Best Budget pick in our guide to the Best Slushie Machines—both WIRED reviewer Matthew Korfhage and I have used it this summer and like it very much. We’ve had success slushing juices, canned drinks, and fruit purees (both spiked and non) in a range of consistencies, but I think my favorite use so far has been making frosé. —Kat Merck
