A private chef’s guide to the top October Prime Day kitchen deals


It’s official: Prime Big Deal Days have arrived. I’ve got 43 tabs open, one hand on my coffee, the other scrolling through the Prime Day kitchen deals like my family’s entire Thanksgiving depends on it (because it might).

These two days (that’s right, Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days are over tomorrow on October 8, 2025) are basically Black Friday’s quiet cousin — just cooler, way less annoying, and maybe even a little kinder (on your wallet, that is). And we found all the deals you need to know about.

If you’re going to be pulling together turkey, sides, pies, cocktails, and your own sanity, you’re going to need the right tools. Prime Big Deal Days are when I personally grab the big-ticket appliances (hi, KitchenAid and quality cookware) and the sneaky little lifesavers (garlic presses, digital thermometers, airtight storage) so I’m not left scrambling when friends and family members descend like Macy’s parade floats: one after the other.

So, here’s my rundown of what’s worth grabbing right now, because the best deals are already live, and by tomorrow night, a lot of them will be gone (seriously). I’ve broken it down by category so you can dive straight to what you need most, just by clicking the category name.

Your Prime Big Deal Days FAQs, answered

What is Prime Big Deal Days?

This annual Amazon sale — which we like to call October Prime Day — is similar to the well-known July event: it’s a two-day blow out shopping event with deep discounts on bestsellers and everyday essentials. But the timing of this sale makes all the difference; shoppers can also score pre-Black Friday deals on top-rated toys and sell-out-risk gifts before the holiday rush.

How long does Prime Big Deal Days last?

Amazon’s fall Prime Day event only lasts two days. This sale starts on Tuesday October 7 at 12:01 a.m. PT and runs through Wednesday October 8 at 11:59 p.m. PT.

When does Prime Big Deal Days end?

Prime Big Deal Days 2025 ends on Wednesday October 8 at 11:59 p.m. PT, so east-coasters have until about 3 a.m. on October 9 their time to shop the deals.

Do you have to be an Amazon Prime member to shop?

Prime Big Deal Days is a member-exclusive sale event. Interested shoppers can grab a 30-day free trial to try Prime, and its many benefits, with no strings attached.

Prime Day vs. Prime Big Deal Days: What’s the difference?

Already familiar with July Prime Day? Then you’ll love Amazon’s fall version! Like its summer spectacular sale, Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days offers major discounts for 48 hours, but with a bigger focus on holiday gifts, toys and tech to shop ahead of Black Friday and Cyber Monday.

What are the best deals?

From reporting on Amazon sales for years, we can tell you for certain that October Prime Day is the ideal period to stock up on household essentials, score great deals on gift-worthy items and toys, take advantage of Black Friday-level discounts on tech and appliances, refill your skincare empties, and comb through the massive catalog of Amazon best-sellers.

Is it worth it?

We certainly think so! October Prime Day is a great chance to score Black Friday-worthy deals on thousands of best-sellers, including everything from big-ticket tech to Post reader-favorite trash bags. Our team diligently sorts through all the offers to find you the very best items to grab on sale.

When is the next Prime Day?

Already wondering when Amazon’s next Prime Day is? Prime Day takes place in July each year, so it’s safe to assume it will take place in mid-July 2026 — similar to previous years. Can’t wait to shop more Amazon deals? Look out for Amazon’s Black Friday sales to kick off the holiday season in November.
