Surprise! Amazon Prime Day is coming back (sort of). On October 11 and October 12, a new Amazon Prime members-only sale event will be taking over the site. Dubbed the Amazon Prime Early Access Sale, this event is Amazon's move to kick off the holiday shopping season earlier than ever. Six weeks ahead of Black Friday, it will be a two-day event that features major discounts across all product categories like electronics, home decor, luggage, vacuums and, of course, air fryers.

As a matter of fact, we are already seeing deals consistent with the best Prime Day air fryer deals from the last Amazon Prime Day in July (like our favorite air fryer of 2022, the Ninja AF161 XL Air Fryer , which is discounted to 12% right now). If you have been eyeing an air fryer, sometime between now and October 12 would be a great time to pick one up.

In case you don't know: an air fryer is one of the best appliances to have in your kitchen because it's very easy to use and it can make food crispy with little to no oil. Not only does an air fryer use less fat and grease, but it also helps cook food in a fraction of the time. "Air fryers are fast, and once you understand how they work, they can be used to heat frozen foods or cook all sorts of fresh food like chicken, steak, pork chops, salmon and veggies," says Nicole Papantoniou, Director of the Good Housekeeping Institute's Kitchen Appliances & Culinary Innovation Lab.
