Memorial Day appliance sales: FAQ

When will Memorial Day appliance sales start?

Memorial Day 2025 falls on Monday, May 26 but we expect many retailers to start their sales well ahead of this date. Appliance sales tend to be the first to feature at major retailers like Best Buy, Home Depot, and Lowes - well ahead of the general sitewide sales that cover the rest of the inventory.

As a rule of thumb, it's usually worth checking in for appliance sales around two to one weeks ahead of the actual calendar date. Based on this, we expect Memorial Day's appliance deals to land around the 12th to 19th of May.

Is Memorial Day a good time to buy appliances?

Memorial Day is one of the best times of the entire year to buy appliances, alongside other well-known federal holidays like President's Day and Labor Day. Retailer's like Lowes, Home Depot, Best Buy, and Samsung usually offer big site-side sales on these federal holidays - especially around the preceding and following weeks.

Generally speaking, it's a great idea to hold off buying appliances ( especially white goods) if we're coming up to a federal holiday as the best discounts are concentrated around these dates.

If you're interested, we've preserved a number of last year's best Memorial Day laptop sales just down below. These should give you an idea of what retailers tend to offer over May. Further down, there are also a number of highlight deals for smaller appliances like air fryers and vacuums, which we test and review here at TechRadar.

Ninja AF100 Air Fryer: was $89 now $69 at Walmart
The Ninja AF101 is probably one of the most recognizable air fryers on the shelves. It's a very popular model with over 50K reviews and a 5 out of 5 rating on Amazon. With its 4-quart ceramic-coated nonstick basket, four cooking programs, and fantastic air fryer performance, it's great for air fryer newbies and small households. It's also known to heat up quickly, which means faster preheating time, for its compact design so it doesn't take up that much space on your counter. Today discount at Walmart matches the record low so this is a great option if you're looking for a cheap (but decent) air fryer.

Nespresso Vertuo Next coffee machine: was $179 now $121 at Amazon
For a pod coffee machine, we highly recommend the VertuoPlus from Nespresso. It's one of the best coffee makers you can buy, and this specific model includes a handy milk frother, so you can enjoy a cup of premium, creamy coffee without leaving your home. Today's discount at Amazon ahead of Memorial Day is the standard sales price - note that we've seen it for under $100 on very, very rare occasion.

Nespresso Vertuo Pop Automatic Pod Coffee Machine: £99.99£58 at Amazon

Nespresso Vertuo Pop Automatic Pod Coffee Machine: was £99.99 now £58 at Amazon
This coffee machine scored an impressive 5 stars in our review, and for good reason! The Nespresso Vertuo Pop pod coffee machine is simple to set up, super-easy to use, and serves up a delicious cup of coffee. Thanks to its ability to automatically detect the capsule size, making a coffee is as simple as popping in a pod, placing your favorite mug under the spout and pressing a button. The record-low price is $49 but today's discount at Amazon is still great if you're looking for a cheap coffee machine.

The pods can be a little pricey, but there's plenty of choice from Nespresso.

Ninja NC301 ice cream maker: was $229 now $179 at Best Buy
Depending on who you ask, we're either officially 'in summer' or just around the corner. Anyway, what better way to get prepared for warmer climates than by snagging this premium Ninja ice cream maker for a great price at Best Buy's Memorial Day sale. We haven't personally reviewed this one but it comes from one of our favorite brands and includes easy controls for ice-cream, gelato, sorbet, milkshakes, and so on.

Image

Ninja NC300 ice cream maker: was $199 now $110.29 at Walmart
The more basic version of Ninja's ice cream maker is also on sale at Walmart today, with a price that's hovering dangerously close to just $99. This again is likely to be a decent buy due to Ninja's reputation as a brand (we haven't reviewed this one personally). The main differences between this model and the one featured above is that this one has fewer one-touch controls and presets. For example, this one doesn't have a feature for smoothie bowls or gelato.

Image

Kohl's has an amazing deal on this Nutribullet portable blender today - with the combination of an almost half-price upfront discount and a further 15% saving at checkout via coupon.

Luckily, this blender from Ninja lets you do just that, and if you're not a fan of vegetables, this will let you whip them up into delicious smoothies in no time. This model was briefly $10 cheaper last week with a surprise coupon, but today's price is still pretty good.

Shark Cordless Pro stick vacuum:  $399 $169 at WalmartRecommended

Shark Cordless Pro stick vacuum: was $399 now $169 at Walmart
Recommended
: Here's an awesome deal on the Shark Cordless Pro that's actually $30 cheaper than Black Friday. We rank the Cordless Pro among the best shark vacuums money can buy right now, especially with this discount. Not only is it peerlessly powerful (for a cordless), but its clever clean Sense IQ automatically adjusts suction power depending on how dirty the surface area is. Its odor neutralizer is surprisingly handy, and the brush roll is exceptionally good for picking up those pet hairs. Our only complaint? Battery life, although we'll live with a 40-minute uptime when performance is this good.

Image

iHome AutoVac Juno Robot Vacuum: was $199.99 now $79 at Walmart
A robot vacuum under $100 is unheard of, which is why this deal on the iHome AutoVac is such a steal. The robot vacuum provides 100 minutes of runtime and uses mapping technology and self-charges when the battery is low. Today's deal is the lowest price we've ever seen, and we don't expect it will stick around for long.

Image

iRobot Roomba j7 Robot Vacuum: was $599.99 now $299.99 at Amazon

And when you need to clean above-floor areas, you can simply detach the hand vac and enjoy the lightweight convenience.

Image

Shark Navigator Lift-Away Upright Vacuum: was $229.99 now $159.99 at Amazon
We usually recommend the more expensive Shark models here at TechRadar since we've personally tested them but the Navigator Lift-Away is a best-selling crowd favorite. Right now, it's down to $159 ahead of Memorial Day, which is a match for the best price we've ever seen. The upright vacuum works on carpet and hard floors and features a lift-away technology, so you can just lift the pod to clean hard-to-reach areas.

Image

Bissell Pet Hair Eraser Turbo Lift-Off Vacuum Cleaner: was $279.99 now $199.99 at Amazon
Another good budget to mid-range model, the Bissell Pet Hair Eraser Turbo provides powerful suction that features a FurGuard self-cleaning brush roll to pick up pet hair seamlessly. The lightweight vacuum can also transform into a detachable, portable canister vacuum for quick and easy cleanups. Today's deal ahead of Memorial Day matches the best price we've ever seen, although this model is commonly on sale.

Samsung Jet 75 Cordless Stick Vacuum: was $399.99 now $279.99 at Samsung
A decent $120 saving is available on the lightweight and versatile Samsung Jet 75 Cordless Vacuum. We haven't tested this model specifically, but in our previous Samsung Bespoke Jet review, we found the manufacturer can create appliances to rival even the best cordless vacuums by Dyson and Shark so this one shouldn't be ignored at such a great price.

Dyson Airstrait: $499.99now $399.99 at Best BuySave $100:

Dyson Airstrait: was $499.99 now $399.99 at Best Buy
Save $100: Even though it's still an investment, this is a seriously good deal on the Airstrait. It replaces the damaging hot plates of traditional straighteners with a focused blade of air that smooths and dies at the same time. You can adjust temperature and air speed to achieve the exact results you want.

As well as Best Buy, you'll find this same deal when you buy direct from Dyson or Amazon.
