I'm a pro baker: These are the only Amazon kitchen deals worth shopping today
With these extended October Prime Day kitchen deals, you can save big on KitchenAid, Lodge and more top brands.
October Prime Day — officially known as Prime Big Deal Days — may have officially ended, but Amazon is still jam-packed with discounts on everything from Apple gear to home goods. But what I'm particularly excited about? All of the kitchen deals I'm seeing. After all, I'm sure you'd agree that fall is the ultimate season for cooking and baking; we're right in that sweet spot of it being cool enough to use the oven without the stress of holiday meal prep looming over us.
As a former pro baker who still spends lots of time in the kitchen, I know how to tell a good piece of equipment from a rotten egg. And because I've spent years tracking prices, I can also spot real deals in a sea of duds. So, if you're wondering where to begin your cookware savings journey, let me be your guide.
Best Amazon Prime Day kitchen deals 2024
It's time to chuck all of your mismatched food storage containers and replace them with this heavily marked-down set. It comes with 12 round and rectangular containers, which are clear so you can easily see their contents. Since they're made of borosilicate glass, the containers are dishwasher-, oven- and microwave-safe (just not the lids), and their airtight silicone seals help prevent leaks.

Not only am I a fan of Ina Garten's approachable, homey recipes, I also love checking out her gorgeous kitchen and cookware. Some of her go-tos are admittedly out of my price range — Le Creuset, anyone? — but I was pleasantly surprised to discover this super-affordable skillet, a longtime favorite of mine, is also a staple in her kitchen.
Lodge has been in the cast iron business since 1896, so it knows a thing or two about crafting sturdy pieces designed to withstand practically any cooking environment. This skillet is no exception; it can be used on all cooktops, is oven-safe and can even be placed over a grill or open flame. Lodge pans are so durable, people often pass them down to younger generations. I've only had mine for about 10 years, but it works just as well as the day I got it, if not better. Not bad for just 20 bucks!
Another thing I love about this pan? It's made of iron and oil — no PFOAs or PTFEs, which gives me peace of mind about cooking without "forever chemicals." No wonder it's one of 12 pieces of cookware Garten links to on her website.

Fall is prime baking season, and at 4.5 quarts, this No. 1 bestseller can hold enough dough to make up to eight dozen cookies at a time (though it won't take up much room in your kitchen). This is the brand I use in my own home kitchen, and it comes with a beater, dough hook and whisk attachments for making practically any baked good under the sun.
It'll give your arms a break by doing all of the mixing, and you can let it run while you prep other ingredients. While this isn't the lowest price we've ever seen, we'll happily take a $50 discount.
This versatile skillet ain't no flash in the pan — it's been a staple in one Yahoo Life editor's kitchen for years. Among its many perks are its lightweight, 2-pound design, as well as the removable silicone grip on its handle, which will protect your hands while you cook.
It's also dishwasher-safe, but our editor says, "Cleanup is a breeze and only requires a few swipes with a soapy sponge, even around the rivets that secure the handle." It's currently within $2 of the lowest price we've seen all year.

Henckels has been crafting knives for over a century, so the brand knows a thing or two about what makes a quality set. This bestseller comes with just about every type of blade a home cook could need: a 3-inch paring knife, a 5-inch serrated utility knife, a 7-inch santoku knife, an 8-inch chef's knife and an 8-inch bread knife. Also included: six 4.5-inch steak knives, a professional honing steel, kitchen shears and a hardwood knife block. Whew!
This bestselling collection is majorly marked down from its list price of $345, though we've never actually seen it shoot that high. Still, this is a stellar price for a comprehensive set with such high ratings — it's within $2 of its lowest price all year.

These wildly popular containers are clearly doing something right if tens of thousands of shoppers have given them a perfect five-star rating. In addition to helping cut down on food waste, these bins allow you to group your food products and beverages by category for a more cohesive, easy-to-navigate fridge.
Juice boxes, veggies, fruits, sauces, dressings — each can have their own designated space. Plus, if something happens to spill, it'll be contained in the bin, which is much easier to clean than an entire sticky fridge shelf. This is close to the lowest price we've seen, so grab a few sets for your pantry and under your sinks too.
If your ratty old dish towels have seen better days, this 100% cotton set is an excellent swap. The waffle weave pattern not only looks nice, but it also offers a bit of texture for more effective scrubbing.
Our price trackers tell us this is close to as low as they've ever been, so wipe — er, swipe — 'em while they're on sale.
If you've always wanted a smart toaster but didn't want to pay hundreds of dollars, now's your chance! This popular model has a handy touchscreen with a visual display of six bread types and six shade settings to choose from.
At less than 8 inches wide, it won't take up much counter space, and its stainless steel design will look stylish in any kitchen. Oh, and it's over 60% off, aka as low as we've ever seen it.
Le Creuset who? I cook with Lodge Dutch ovens at home, and this one is just the right size for a smaller household. The slick enameled interior cleans like a dream, while the sturdy cast iron offers excellent heat distribution and retention. Plus, it's so pretty you won't mind leaving it on the stove for everyone to admire.
At nearly 50% off, this is the best price we've seen in years. Read my full Lodge Dutch oven review for more details.
Have a bit of a Starbucks obsession? It'll be more like Star-(save some)-bucks once you get a load of this powerful device, which will have you whipping up and enjoying foamy beverages in no time.
Let's be real — the appeal of a cappuccino starts dwindling the longer one waits in that chaotic a.m. line, and why shell out for something that's so easy to make at home? This gizmo is an impressive 56% off, just about as low as it gets.

One Yahoo editor awarded this blade the title of best budget chef's knife after testing a slew of them. She says, "When I started culinary school, I was issued a curated set of knives and tools we would need to work with through our 600 hours of training in order to graduate. This Mercer Culinary chef's knife was the one we received that day and what we would use for 90% of our daily tasks. That should give you an idea of what this knife is capable of — and of its durability.
The Genesis may not be a flashy knife, but it is a real workhorse in the kitchen. This Western-style knife is forged from a single piece of high-carbon German steel and features a handle made from Santoprene (a rubbery material) that ensures a firm grip even in damp hands."
It only dropped lower in price once this year, FYI...
What sets this beverage machine apart from a manual model like the SodaStream is the fact that it's electrically powered — no work needed on your part aside from choosing your preferred settings. On that note, this machine lets you customize the amount of bubbles in your drink (if you want any at all) as well as the flavor.
We've only ever seen it this low for Prime Day, meaning the time to buy is now. And while it still might seem like a splurge, just think of how much money it'll save you on canned or bottled soda and seltzer in the long run.
In the market for a new slow cooker? Get this trusty appliance while it's marked down to its lowest price of the year.
It's perfect for making fall favorites like soup, stew and braises, and so hands-off. Just add your ingredients, set the temperature and you'll be on your way to cozy comfort food.
At $70 off, this powerful blender is down to its lowest price since March. Oh, and it's not just for smoothies — it's also a food processor and can blitz up both large and single-serve portions.
With its 64-ounce capacity, you can mix up frozen cocktails for friends and family, or slice and shred vegetables for a big ol' salad. We'll be awaiting our party invitation!
Psst: Here are a few other fab kitchen deals we found elsewhere on the web:
Scratched-up cookware in need of a swap? Your search ends here: This set is made of a nonstick granite material that'll make cleanup a breeze and includes just about every type of pot and pan a well-stocked kitchen needs (plus a trio of cooking utensils).
Have we ever seen this set listed for $299? No, but in spite of the inflated original price, getting 13 pieces for $100 is an absolute steal.

It's an air fryer ... it's a toaster oven ... it's ... well, it's both. Made of sleek stainless steel, this compact appliance cooks up crispy favorites with hardly any oil, and you can get it at Target for less than at Amazon.
Psst: You'll need to be a Target Circle member to score this Target Circle Week deal!
Metal mixing bowls are the best because there's no risk of them shattering if your forceful whisking accidentally sends them crashing to the floor. This assortment comes with bowls of all different sizes that neatly stack inside one another, and the included lids mean you can use them for storing leftovers too. The starting price might be inflated, but at less than $4 a pop, these are still a fab deal.
All-Clad is considered by many pro chefs to be the best in the biz, and its stainless steel cookware is the brand's bread and butter, if you will. This gorgeous pan offers fantastic heat distribution and retention for all of your searing and stir-frying needs, and at $90 off, you may want to grab two.
If you have Amazon Prime, you'll get free shipping, of course. Not yet a member? No problem. You can sign up for your free 30-day trial here. (And by the way, those without Prime still get free shipping on orders of $35 or more.)
