PRESIDENTS’ DAY (Monday, February 20) is one of the best times of the year to save on big purchases, especially on appliances. While you take your three-day weekend, take a look around your home and assess if any upgrades are worthwhile. Retailers like Amazon, Lowe’s and Wayfair are offering major discounts on large appliances and small appliances, including vacuums, air fryers, refrigerators and more.
If you’re wondering whether now is the best time to buy appliances (or if you should wait until later in the year around Black Friday or Cyber Monday), experts say now is the time to shop. The holiday marks a flurry of foot traffic at the mall and digitally. “Retailers understand that they will lose out if they’re not offering special promotions,” says Trae Bodge, smart shopping expert at TrueTrae.com.
What’s more, many of the top-tested appliances are on sale this Presidents’ Day. Take $500 off the Whirlpool Side-by-Side Refrigerator with Ice Maker, our pick for the best overall side-by-side refrigerator. Plus, our best overall air fryer pick, the Ninja Air Fryer Max XL, is currently 25% off. Keep reading for our full list of the best Presidents’ Day 2023 appliance deals—from Amazon, Lowe’s and Walmart—worth shopping now.
