Save on an air fryer, indoor grill, and more
If nothing else, we’ll all come out of this period of the new coronavirus-induced isolation as better chefs: Not only is cooking a great distraction in these chaotic, uncertain times, but with many restaurants, cafés, and bars closed until further notice, ordering out is no longer an option for the kitchen averse among us.

Whether your cooking skills extend to opening a bag of dinosaur-shaped chicken nuggets or preparing a Beef Wellington that would make Gordon Ramsey weep with joy, one thing’s for sure: Those cheapo appliances you’ve had since college aren’t going to cut it right now. Conveniently, Best Buy’s got a bunch of Ninja kitchen gadgets on sale as of March 24 — and all of them ship for free with contactless delivery right to your doorstep.
Here’s a brief rundown of some of the sale’s best deals:
Want to make those aforementioned chicken nuggets extra crispy (and less greasy)? Just swap your deep fryer for an air fryer. This four-quart Ninja model has enough room for about two pounds of food and features dishwasher-safe parts for easy cleanup. You can score it on sale at Best Buy for only $99.99, which is $40 off its $139.99 MSRP — get it here.
The coronavirus outbreak is expected to keep us confined to our homes for some time, but that doesn’t mean we have to miss out on grilling season. You can whip up a whole platter of perfectly charred burgers in your own kitchen in mere minutes (without even having to flip them!) using the Ninja Foodi Grill, a 5-in-1 appliance that comes equipped with functions for smokeless indoor grilling, baking, air-frying, roasting, and dehydrating. It usually sells for $239.40, but you can snag it at Best Buy right now for just $199.99 — a savings of nearly $40. Get it here.
Also from the Ninja Foodi series comes the versatile Cold & Hot Blender, a high-speed crushing and liquefying machine that doesn’t limit itself to smoothies: Among its 12 preset smart programs, there are settings that can create concentrates for flavored water and cocktails and even cook up hot soups and sauces. (A built-in heating element makes the latter possible.) It normally retails for $159.99, but you can order it from Best Buy today for just $129.99 — a $30 savings. Get it here.
