Don't worry — you haven't overslept. Black Friday doesn't technically arrive until November 29, but that hasn't stopped Ninja unleashing its feverishly-anticipated deals ahead of schedule. Yes, the Ninja Black Friday sale is here now.
For a limited time, you can save across its best-selling categories, including award-winning air fryers, woodfire electric BBQs, blenders, CREAMi ice cream makers, and much more. Whether you're looking to treat someone as a Christmas present... or simply want to upgrade the kitchenware in your own house, the Black Friday is a superb opportunity to save money.
We've rounded up some of the ultimate Ninja deals this Black Friday, with prices starting from just £69.
If you haven't heard of Ninja before, this US manufacturer was named the UK's number-one air fryer brand last year. Owned by parent company SharkNinja, the Massachusetts-based firm is also known for its Dyson-rivalling cordless vacuum cleaners, hairdryers, and haircare products.
Ninja has a shelf heaving with industry awards from a slew of publications and taste-makers. The catch? It's not known for its affordable price tags — but that's where the Black Friday sale is such an incredible deal.
The most affordable air fryer that Ninja makes just got even more affordable. For a limited time, it's been cut £30 for Black Friday. At £69.99, this is the cheapest way to own a Ninja air fryer, which boasts four different cooking modes and takes 50% less time than a traditional fan oven
The most affordable model in the Black Friday sale is the Ninja Air Fryer AF100UK, which has a 3.8-litre basket. That's enough to cook a 1.35kg chicken or 900g of chips in one go. If you've seen the cooking instructions for air fryers on the back of most frozen food packets, you'll know these compact kitchen gadgets are speedy, with Ninja claiming that its models can cook up to 50% faster than traditional fan ovens.
This speediness — coupled with the smaller footprint and efficiency gains- contributes to the energy savings possible with these gadgets. In fact, the term "air fryer" is somewhat misleading, as these clever kitchen gadgets aren't only about crisping-up homemade chips with 75% less fat than a traditional deep-fat fryer.
Air fryers can do everything you'd do in a fan oven, from baking desserts to cooking entire meals, and with a lot less electricity — with a 60% reduction in your energy bill, according to Ninja research.
With a two-year guarantee, the entry-level Ninja Air Fryer AF100UK has dropped from £99.99 down to £69.99 this Black Friday.
The basket used to cook, fry, and roast is dishwasher-safe, so clean-up should be pretty simple

If you need something with a little extra capacity, the Ninja Air Fryer MAX has fallen from £129.99 to just £99.99 in the Black Friday bargain-frenzy. This model has the same overall shape and design. This increases the capacity to 5.2-litres, which should be enough to cook a 2kg chicken or 1.4kg of fries in one sitting. That should be enough for bigger families using the air fryer to cook.
The basket is dishwasher-safe, so clean-up should be pretty simple. As well as different preset heat modes (Max Crisp, Air Fry, Roast, Bake), including temperatures up to 240°C, the Ninja air fryers have dedicated buttons to Reheat and Dehydrate meals.
For an extra £20, you can upgrade to the first entry in Ninja's award-winning lineup with a dual-drawer design.
Ninja's most affordable dual-drawer model has a combined 7.6-litre capacity — enough for a 1.6kg chicken in each drawer. Ninja offers more cooking modes with this model: Max Crisp, Air Fry, Roast, Bake, Reheat, and Dehydrate. Cooking can be done separately in each drawer, or synchronised across the two drawers to finish at exactly the same time
Each of the two 3.8-litre baskets in the Foodi Dual Zone Air Fryer can be set to a different temperature, with cooking time synchronised to finish at the same time — making it easier to time your cooking.
In total, this model — which costs £199 outside of the Black Friday sale — has a 7.6-litre capacity to cook enough for eight people. This Ninja air fryer is the best option for those who want to cook an entire meal with multiple elements without switching on an oven or microwave.
Research suggests between 30% (Leatherhead Food Research) to 46% (Iceland customer survey) of Britons own an air fryer. If you're missing out on the faster cooking speeds, lower energy bills, these Black Friday discounts from Ninja could make it the best time to fix that.
If your kitchen is stretched for space, the latest arrival in the Ninja lineup — the Double Stack XL Air Fryer offers a way to unlock a 9.5-litre capacity to cook savoury and sweet meals with a much smaller footprint

Lastly, one of the newest additions to the Ninja lineup has also been included in the Amazon sale for the first time. Dubbed the Ninja Double Stack XL Air Fryer, this model was unveiled by the US brand earlier this year and is designed to solve one of the biggest headaches with its devices — the amount of countertop space required.
If you don't have the spare worksurface to accommodate one of the large-capacity models above, the Ninja Double Stack XL Air Fryer could be the solution. In a world first, this clever model stacks the two drawers on-top of one another — minimizing the amount of room required.
Ninja says its designers have managed to reduce the overall width by 30% compared to the dual-drawer Ninja Foodi Max. Despite this slimmer profile, the Ninja Double Stack XL Air Fryer has the same total 9.5 litre capacity, so you'll be able to cook the same amount of food. Based on research conducted by Ninja, this model is capable of cooking enough food to feed eight people in a single session.
It boasts six different cooking modes: Air Fry, Max Crisp, Roast, Bake, Reheat & Dehydrate.
At launch, this flagship vertically-stacked air fryer cost £269.99 — making it one of the priciest ever launched by Ninja. But the latest Black Friday sale has seen that price tag cut to £219.99. While that's a decent saving, this is still a niche proposition compared to the others.
Unveiled earlier this year, the Ninja Double Stack XL brings the vast capacity of the dual-drawer Foodi Max but squeezes it into a footprint much closer to the standard single-drawer Ninja air fryer models. If you're short on countertop space in your kitchen, this could be a worthy investment to forgo your oven and cook food faster and using much less energy
Rounding out the Ninja kitchenware gadgets on sale for Black Friday, the US company has also cut prices across its lineup of multi-cookers.
These all-in-one appliances are capable of a plethora of different cooking mode, including braise (up to 12hrs), sear and sauté, slow cook (up to 12hrs), simmer, bake, steam, prove, and keep warm. Others have the ability to air fry too, so there's no need to double-up on both discounts gadgets.
By consolidating all of these disparate cooking methods into a single appliance, home cooks can save on countertop space, save money on multiple gadgets, and lower energy consumption. And with the warming functionality, you can prepare dinner when you've got a spare minute and leave the Ninja machine to keep your food hot and ready-to-eat for up to 12 hours after cooking.
Ninja's multi-cookers start from £99.99, so it's a little more expensive than buying an air fryer from the brand.
If you're looking for more than just an air fryer, Ninja offers a range of multi-cookers with the ability to create a wide range of meals, sides, and desserts with its pressure cook, air fry, slow cook, steam, roast and sauté functions. Once you've finished cooking, the Ninja Foodi 6-in-1 Multi-Cooker can keep your creation ready-to-eat for 12-hours with its handy Keep Warm functionality
For that, you'll take delivery of a Foodi Mini 6-in-1 Multi-Cooker with a capacity of 4.7-litres. According to Ninja, this kitchen gadget will save up to 40% on your energy bill, with the UK’s best-selling multicooker brand.
The capacity of this machine should be enough to feed two people, with enough space to cook and crisp a whole 1.5kg roast chicken in its single drawer. The multi-cooker ships with a two-year guarantee and its ceramic-coated, non-stick parts are dishwasher-safe, so cleaning-up after dinner should be a breeze.
