So you've been putting off finally buying an air fryer — and then kicking yourself every time your food is taking forever in the oven. Amazon's October Prime Day is as good a time as any to find an air fryer on sale, especially if you're a connoisseur of fried snacks during football games. That'll give you several extra weekends to squeeze in new halftime recipes compared to waiting until Black Friday.

The best deals on air fryers ahead of Prime Big Deal Days

Best basket air fryer deal Instant Pot Vortex Plus (4-quart) $64.99 (save $60) Stainless steel digital air fryer with basket filled with food

Best air fryer oven deal Ninja Prestige 10-in-1 XL $229.99 (save $120) Stainless steel air fryer oven with two shelves

As Prime Big Deal Days kicked off on Oct. 7, almost all of the good air fryer deals we saw at Amazon during July's Prime Day were already live again. Instant Pot, Nuwave, and Ninja deals are all in the mix, with options from mini two-quart basket designs to XL convection oven combos for the countertop. We're tracking the best air fryer deals at Amazon through the end of October Prime Day on Oct. 8 and will be updating the list as more pop up (or sell out).

Why we like it

Out of all of the Ninja air fryer deals that have sprouted, this one's the biggest — both discount-wise (34% off) and capacity-wise (20 quarts). It's even $20 cheaper than its $249.99 Prime Day sale price in July.
