The best Memorial Day appliance sales

Amazon's early Memorial Day appliance sale is now available and features a rather eclectic range of discounts on everything from storage bins to paper cups. There's some quite random stuff in here but also some real hidden gems. A couple of decent options include up to 43% off Ninja blenders and air fryers, 25% off Dyson Vacuums, and 55% off Shark robo vacuums.
Best Buy major appliances: save up to $1,500 on refrigerators, ranges, washers, and more
No Best Buy Memorial Day sale would be complete without huge discounts on its massive range of refrigerators, ranges, washers, and more. Right now, you can expect discounts ranging all the way up to $1,500 on the more premium brands and there are also additional limited-time-only promotions for interest-free financing and excellent bundle deals on kitchen packages.

A fantastic early-bird event ahead of Memorial Day, Samsung is running a 'Discover Samsung' event this week, which includes huge discounts on a wide range of own-brand models. The headline deal here, as with most appliance sales at Samsung, is the retailer's whopping savings of up to $1,200 on its bespoke design-your-own refrigerators. If that doesn't appeal, you'll also find great savings on washers and dryers, plus a range of discounted premium vacuum cleaners.
Lowe's: save up to $1,200 on large appliances
Lowe's teased us last week with an early 'Spring Savings' event, which included some superb appliance deals. It's now carried most of those over into its Memorial Day sale, which has now officially started with a full range of discounts across a huge range of categories. Featured right now is a whole range of refrigerators, ranges, and washers, as well as a range of smaller appliances and even some outdoor grills too.
Home Depot appliance Summer Savings: up to 30% off major appliances
Home Depot has already launched its Memorial Day appliance sales this week, albeit under the guise of a 'Summer Savings' banner. All the usual suspects are here in the form of heavily discounted refrigerators, ranges, washers, vacuums, and many more small and kitchen appliances. Like a few other major retailers, Home Depot offers bundle savings for brand multi-buys today - up to $900 off LG washers and dryers, $350 off Samsung appliances, and 10% off three or more GE products.
Small appliances at Walmart: cheap air fryers, coffee machines, juicers, pressure cookers at Walmart
Walmart has a whole section of its Memorial Day sale dedicated to discounted small appliances today. Just a few of the items on sale include air fryers and pressure cookers from leading brands like Ninja, cheap Keurig coffee makers, and a host of juicers. If you're looking to stock up on crockery, you'll also find plenty of options for cheap dining sets as well as knives and cutlery in this section at Walmart.

Today's best deals on small appliances
Instant Vortex Plus 6Qt air fryer: was $169.99 now $99.99 at Amazon
We've just spotted a record-low price at Amazon on the Instant Vortex Plus - a model we currently have as number one on our best air fryers buyer's guide. This model yielded awesome results during our Instant Vortex Plus 6-in-1 Air Fryer review and we were impressed enough to reward it four and half stars out of five. While it requires a bit of experimentation to get the best results, we think this one is a fantastic buy thanks to its useful deodorizer and handy window. Usually it's a little on the pricey end but today's record-breaking price at Amazon makes it an easy recommendation.
Cosori Smart 4-in-1 air fryer: was $99.99 now $55.99 at Walmart
The best air fryer deal in the Walmart Memorial Day sales is on this Cosori Smart 4-in-1 model. While this isn't one that we've personally reviewed at TechRadar, we have reviewed similar models for our best air fryers buyer's guide and found them to be fantastic budget buys. Compared to the similarly no-name branded options in the Walmart sale, this decently sized 4Qt. model has easy to use presets for different food types, plus a handy mobile app for online recipes.
Instant Pot Duo Crisp 6 Qt. 11-in-1 pressure cooker: was $149 now $114.99 at Walmart
The best deal on an Instant Pot today is over at Walmart with this $30 off discount on the 6Qt. Duo Crisp. We've seen this one go for around $90 before, but not since last summer and we think this is one of the better models from Instant Pot. In our Instant Pot Duo Crisp and Air Fryer review we liked its excellent multitude of functions and touch panel controls. Of the two naub modes, it's better as a pressure cooker than as an air fryer but it's a good choice overall if you want to save space on your kitchen top with a two-in-one solution.
Ninja Foodi 1-in-1 Smart Lid multi-cooker: was $279.99 now $129.98 at Amazon
Our Ninja Foodi 11-in-1 SmartLid review gave this awesome multi-cooker four and a half stars out of five thanks to its fantastic versatility. Using this handy appliance you'll be able to roll several functions into one, including air frying, pressure cooking, and baking. It's a superb appliance that usually sells for a premium. Luckily, today's price at Amazon brings this model down to its lowest-ever price.
Cuisinart TOA-60 air fryer and toaster oven: was $129.95 now $99 at Amazon
Another one of our favorite models from TechRadar's best air fryers buyer's guide, the Cuisinart TOA-60 is a fantastic 2-in-1 solution for all your air frying and toasting needs. It's quite big, but it will essentially roll a few appliances into one while providing seven easy-to-use functions with quiet operation. During our Cuisinart TOA-60 Air Fryer Toaster Oven review we were able to effectively warm, bake, cook, and air fry everything from paninis to pizzas - with delicious results. Today's price cut at Amazon isn't a record-breaking deal but it's just $2 more than the price over Black Friday last year. In context, we think this is a pretty great deal on one of our favorite small appliances.
KitchenAid K150 blender: was $99.99 now $89.99 at KitchenAid
KitchenAid has a small but significant close-out deal on the K150 today, which is one of our favorite blenders. We rated this one as one of the best budget options over at our best blenders buyer's guide and also awarded it three and a half stars out of five with our KitchenAid K150 Blender review. It only has three speeds but it's an exceptionally effective appliance, crushing ice and blending smoothies with no problem at all.
Nespresso Vertuo Plus coffee machine: was $159 now $126.75 at Amazon
For a pod coffee machine, we highly recommend the Vertuo Plus from Nespresso. It's one of the best coffee makers in its budget range and during our Nespresso Vertuo Plus review we thought it created some great-tasting coffee without being too difficult to use. We've seen this one dip to $99 previously over Black Friday but today's deal at Amazon is the lowest price we've seen so far this year.
Keurig K-Duo Coffee Maker: was $189.99 now $159.99 at Best Buy
This do-it-all coffee maker from Keurig allows you to use grounds to brew larger pots of your favorite fast juice or pods to make single-serve portions in no time. Good for those who may be working from home one day and then just need a single shot to take on the go the next day. It's a good price for an appliance that offers so much flexibility, too, and has useful features like a timer and a removable water tank.
eufy BoostIQ 11S RoboVac: was $249 now $139.99 at Newegg
The eufy 11S is currently rated as our best robot vacuum for those on a budget thanks to its superb performance and easy-on-the-wallet price tag. It's not the most advanced robovac out there, or the most feature-packed, but it's simple to set up and it gives you everything to need for headache-free cleaning. Today's price at Newegg is the best we've seen so far this year and a rare deal on this popular gadget. Check out our Eufy RoboVac 11S review for a full rundown of this model.
Dyson V15 Detect cordless vacuum: was $749 now $639 at Amazon
Want the best? Amazon currently has our favorite Dyson cordless model on sale for a record-low price. We rated the Dyson V15 as the best cordless vacuum for those on the hunt for a premium model thanks to its outstanding performance and a clever laser that actually highlights dust as you're vacuuming. While it's not a budget buy by any means, our Dyson V15 Detect Absolute review awarded this incredible vacuum five stars out of five.
Samsung Bespoke Jet cordless vacuum: was $699 now $599 at Samsung
Another one of our favorite cordless vacuums, the Samsung Bespoke Jet is a pricey yet worthwhile buy if you want a superb vacuum that takes up little space. We gave this one four and a half stars out of five during our Samsung Bespoke Jet review due to its exceptional functionality, performance, and excellent docking station (provided with the vacuum). It's up there with Dyson as one of the best - and most advanced - cordless vacuums you can buy.
Dyson Ball Multi Floor Origin Upright Vacuum: was $299.99 now $189.99 at Walmart
This Dyson Ball upright vacuum cleaner is a good option for deep-cleaning your home and removing pet hair from floors, and it's down to $189.99 at Walmart's Memorial Day sale. We're fans of the ball since it makes it easy to move around and features a self-adjusting cleaner head that automatically adjusts between carpets and hard floors.
Dyson V8 Origin+ Cordless Vacuum: was $419.90 now $249.99 at Walmart
If you're interested in a lightweight cordless vacuum, Walmart also has the Dyson V8 on sale for a record-low price of $249.99. Perfect for pet owners, the Dyson V8 features a de-tangling motor bar and works across hardwood floors and carpets, and can transform into a handheld vac for quick and convenient clean-ups.
Is Memorial Day a good time to buy appliances?
Yep! Alongside similar events like President's Day and Labor Day, the Memorial Day sales generally offer the best appliance deals you'll find all year, outside of potentially Black Friday. These weekend-long sales are traditionally where it's at for the retailers where you'd usually find appliances all year round. Lowes, Home Depot, Best Buy, and Samsung are a few of the retailers that hold big Memorial Day appliance sales every year.
Since we're coming up to Memorial Day now we'd highly recommend holding off on purchasing appliances until the sales start arriving. Generally speaking, the Memorial Day sales tend to kick-off around mid-May.
What appliances go on sale on Memorial Day?
We're expecting deals on everything from humble air fryers to bespoke refrigerators and other large items this Memorial Day. Last year's event included massive savings of up to $1,300 on large appliances and around $50 off as the average for smaller items - including things like blenders, coffee makers, and vacuums.
If you're interested, you'll find a few of last year's best Memorial Day appliance deals just down below, which should inform you of what to expect.
When do Memorial Day appliance sales start?
Memorial Day is Monday, May 29 for 2023 but it's likely we'll see deals on appliances cropping up before this date.
If previous events, and similar events like the President's Day sales and the Labor Day sales are anything to go by, we usually see the big appliance retailers start posting deals around a week in advance. This page will be updated with all the best Memorial Day appliance sales as soon as they land so definitely don't hesitate to bookmark and check in regularly from here on in.
