Believe it or not, back-to-school season is in full swing. Retailers are using this as a chance to sell off their summer inventory before we settle into fall. (I’ve already seen Halloween decorations out, and at Hobby Lobby, even Christmas stuff — which is too far, even for me). Right now, you can find deals on just about anything a student might need, from Kindles and MacBooks to printers and dorm decor (with most at record-low prices).
And in a surprisingly smart move, Ninja is getting in on the action. Through August 12, its Back to School Sale gets you 15% off select items (including blenders, air fryers, and cookware) with the code CLASS15.
To save you some scrolling, we’ve sorted through the offers to find the very best deals from the sale.
Best air fryer deal
Why we like it
If there’s one appliance college students swear by, it’s the air fryer. They’re easy to use, whip up a full meal in minutes, and don’t require a ton of cleanup.
Right now, you can get the Ninja Foodi FlexBasket Air Fryer with 7qt MegaZone for $169.99 with the code CLASS15. Normally, this appliance goes for $199.99, so you’re saving $30 with this deal. (You’ll notice that some items aren’t included in the sale, but I’ve double-checked to make sure all of my selections are.) If you want to save even more, we found the same model at Amazon for $157.49.
The Ninja Foodi FlexBasket has one large MegaZone basket that can be divided into two 3.5-quart baskets when you need to cook two different foods at once. So, chicken nuggies on one side and fries on the other — done.
Mashable Trend Report
The Dual Zone technology and Smart Finish feature mean that both zones will be done at the same time. You can also sync the settings with Match Cook to cook one large meal in a single 7-quart basket. With six cooking functions (air fry, air broil, roast, bake, reheat, dehydrate), you’ll be able to cook just about anything.
Best blender deal
Why we like it
Getting a quick breakfast or mid-day protein shake in the campus dining hall can get pricey, so it’s a good idea to have a blender on hand.
The Ninja Twisti High Speed Blender Duo; Euro-Pro Bundle is currently on sale for $101.14 with the code CLASS15. (Amazon, and a few other retailers like Target and Crate & Barrel, aren’t matching this price, so that means this is the lowest you can get right now.)
This deal includes a 1600 peak-watt motor base, pitcher with Twist Tamper and drizzle cap, 34-ounce high-speed pitcher, one 18-ounce Nutrient Extraction single-serve cup and spout lid, one 24-ounce Nutrient Extraction single-serve cup and spout lid, and a recipe guide.
The coolest thing about this blender is the Twist Tamper lid, which pushes the ingredients down while it blends, so you don’t have to stop mid-way and shake it around or scrape the sides with a spoon. The removable drizzle cap is a nice add-on, too. This way, you can add ingredients while blending without removing the entire lid. The single-serve cups are perfect for taking smoothies on the go, and the spout lid makes for less mess.
If you’re looking for something that’s smaller and more portable, the Ninja Blast Portable Blender is also on sale for $59.49 with code CLASS15.
Best cookware deal
Why we like it
An air fryer can do a lot, but it can’t do everything. When you need to boil pasta or sauté veggies, you’ll need some quality cookware.
The Ninja NeverStick Essential 10-Piece Cookware Set is currently on sale for $229.49, which is an absolute steal for 10 pieces of cookware. (It’s also out of stock at Amazon.)
The best feature of this cookware (aside from the fact that it’s designed to withstand chips or flaking) is that you can pop it right in the oven. All of the pots, pans, and lids are oven-safe up to 500°F. It’s also all dishwasher-safe, for quick and easy cleaning. And you’ll get a 10-year warranty under the Ninja 10 Year Guarantee.
This set includes an 8-inch frying pan, 12-inch frying pan, 1.5-quart saucepan with glass lid, 2.5-quart saucepan with glass lid, 3-quart sauté pan with glass lid, and a 6.5-quart stock pot with glass lid. What more could you need going into soup season?
