Why we like it
If the more high-tech Instant Pots just seem like too much, the Instant Pot Duo Plus has all the functions you need and none that you don’t. It acts as a pressure cooker, slow cooker, sauté pan, rice cooker, yogurt maker, seamer, food warmer, sous vide and sterilizer, has 15 one-touch programs for quick cooking, and was under $60 at the time of writing.

Why we like it
We haven’t seen many Ninja Foodi discounts so far, but this Walmart deal is a solid price drop on the Ninja Foodi OP300. We’re only seeing this model available renewed at other retailers, so opting to buy from Walmart will get you a brand new multicooker for $80 off. The Foodi OP300 is a pressure cooker and air fryer in one, features a 6.5-quart ceramic pot and a four quart crisping basket.

Why we like it
While this Ninja Foodi model looks more like a spaceship than a pressure cooker, it’s one of the kitchen brand’s most versatile products yet. It features a lid that allows for steaming and crisping at the same time, which allows for fast, moist, and crispy meals. It features 14 functions (pressure cook, steam and crisp, steam and bake, air fry, broil, bake/roast, dehydrate, sear/sauté, steam, sous vide, slow cook, yogurt, keep warm, and proof) and features a roomy eight-quart pot and a five-quart crisp basket.

Why we like it
Target has entered the Instant Pot chat. To compete with the Amazon vs. Walmart Duo Crisp rivalry, Target dropped a sweet deal on a comparable model. It’s essentially a slightly pared-down version of the Duo Crisp and features 9-in-1 functionality (pressure cook, slow cook, air fry, roast, steam, sauté, bake, broil and keep warm).

Which Instant Pots will be on sale for Black Friday?
Last year brought us killer deals like a $49 Instant Pot Viva and a $79 six-quart Instant Pot Duo Crisp, and this year we’re expecting similarly good deals on Instant Pots, Ninja Foodis, and other multicookers. The $79 Duo Crisp deal will almost definitely be back, and we’re expecting to see big discounts on the higher-end Instant Pot models too, like the Instant Pot Pro, Pro Crisp, and Smart WiFi.
How to buy an Instant Pot on Black Friday
In years past, shoppers have thrown elbows in stores to snag a deal on an Instant Pot, but that all changed with last year’s completely virtual Black Friday. This year, supply chain holdups mean that in-demand products like Instant Pots might be hard to get.
Our best tip is to shop these products as soon as you can. While that may mean you won’t be able to snag the $79 Duo Crisp, there are tons of other deals that you can take advantage of. Buying early and spending a few bucks extra is definitely better than showing up Instant Pot-less to your holiday gathering.
Don’t fret if a pot you like isn’t on sale yet. This page will be updated frequently through Cyber Monday with the latest prices and stock info to help you upgrade your kitchen with the ideal do-it-all pressure cooker. Be sure to check back regularly.
