Black Friday 2026 Dates and How to Spot a Real Deal

Thanksgiving is Thursday, November 26, so Black Friday is November 27 and Cyber Monday is November 30, 2026. Many sales start earlier, so it pays to have your pick ready.

Five checks before you click Buy
  • Look at the price history. Amazon now shows a price history link on many listings. A real deal is lower than the recent typical price, not just lower than the list price.
  • Compare to the “Typical price.” Some listings show a typical price as well as a list price; the typical one is the more honest comparison.
  • Check every color. Some models, like the Cosori TurboBlaze, cost more in certain colors.
  • Watch for bundles. A bundle (like Typhur’s version with a stainless rack) can cost more than it’s worth to you.
  • Confirm the model number. Make sure the sale is on the exact model and size you researched.

Holiday Cooking: Which Air Fryers Handle a Crowd?

How to Pick the Right Air Fryer on Sale

Six things to decide before the deals drop.

Capacity

Match your household

2 to 4 quarts for one, 6 quarts for 2 to 4 people, 8 quarts or dual baskets for bigger families.

Style

Basket or oven

Baskets crisp fastest. Oven-style models also toast and bake and fit pans.

Baskets

One or two

Two baskets cook a main and a side together. One big basket fits larger items.

Coating

PFAS-free options

Cosori, Ninja and Typhur list PFAS-free coatings; Cuisinart uses a glass basket.

Extras

Only pay for what you’ll use

A probe (Typhur, Dreo), a window (Instant, Cuisinart) or an app are nice, but cost more.

Noise

Check the decibels

Cosori says the TurboBlaze stays under 53 dB even on its highest fan speed.
