The Unexpected Place to Find Ridiculously Good Deals on Top Kitchen Brands
When it comes to bargain hunting, you know what’s the best kind of thrill? Finding a superb deal in the most unexpected places. Having said that, we’re letting you in on a little secret: The kitchen and tabletop section of Nordstrom Rack (yes, that Nordstrom Rack) is a deal-hunters paradise. Known for steep discounts on designer footwear and clothing, the retailer also has incredible savings on some of our favorite kitchen brands. We’re talking All-Clad, Cuisinart, Fiesta, OXO and more! But be warned: Inventory is usually very limited, so if something catches your eye, act fast — much like a sharply discounted pair of Manolos, it’s going to sell out quickly. See some of our favorite finds below.
1. All-Clad 10 Quart Covered Oval Roaster
Chefs and Kitchn editors swear by All-Clad’s bonded metal construction, which distributes heat evenly and gives meat that oh-so-perfect sear. That’s why we can’t resist this deal on All-Clad’s gorgeous 10-quart covered roaster, which comes with a stainless-steel rack for more even cooking, high sides that reduce messes and a domed lid that locks in moisture. Perfect for special occasions, it’s also great for prepping delicious recipes year-round.
Buy: All-Clad 10 Quart Covered Oval Roaster, $150 (normally $200)
2. Fiesta Tableware Company Bistro 3-Piece Set
Whether you’re looking to add to your Fiesta collection or start one from scratch, you won’t want to pass up this set that includes a bowl, dinner plate and salad plate, all in Fiesta’s vibrant blue Lapis shade. Nordstrom Rack also stocks several other colors, so you can make the most of the deal and build your dream Fiesta dinnerware set.

3. Cuisinart 12-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker & Hot Water System
A solid machine that’ll brew up to 12 cups of coffee, the Cuisinart coffee maker also includes some handy features, like being fully programmable and letting you control the carafe’s temperature. The best part, though, is the separate hot water system that works independently of the coffee system, so you can make coffee and tea at the same time or whip up a late-night ramen snack.
Buy: Cuisinart 12-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker & Hot Water System, $80 (normally $185)
4. Kuhn Rikon Switzerland Tabletop Garlic Press
We’ve raved about several of their kitchen tools before, and now the design geniuses at Kuhn Rikon have put out another must-have item that seamlessly combines utility and style. This tabletop garlic press sits on a natural wood slat; simply insert the bulb, press down on the stainless steel top and voila! You’ve got crushed garlic.

5. Zojirushi Neuro Fuzzy Rice Cooker & Warmer
Say goodbye to soggy or burned rice with Zojirushi’s rice cooker, an amazing small appliance that made it onto our Best List. It features “Neuro Fuzzy” technology, which allows the unit to automatically adjust temperature and cooking time to serve up perfect rice every time. Plus, the push-button control panel is easy to use, so you can truly set it and forget it.
Buy: Zojirushi Neuro Fuzzy Rice Cooker & Warmer, $220 (normally $260)
6. OXO Good Grips Tri-Ply Stainless Steel 10-Inch Open Fry Pan
While we love OXO for their kitchen gadgets, utensils and cleaning essentials, the brand also makes high-quality, everyday cookware like this fry pan that’ll quickly become the most-used item in any kitchen. It’s solidly built, versatile and equipped with a stainless steel stay-cool handle, so you can brown a pork loin on the stovetop before popping the whole pan into the oven. The pan is also dishwasher safe, making cleanup a breeze.
Buy: OXO Good Grips Tri-Ply Stainless Steel 10-inch Open Fry Pan, $40 (normally $80)
7. BergHOFF White Neo 3-Quart Covered Cast Iron Dutch Oven
A smaller Dutch oven that’s perfect for stews and casseroles, the BergHOFF 3-quart model can be a handy addition to holiday meal prep or useful on its own for roasting veggies or making a baked pasta dish. And it’s gorgeous, thanks to the clean lines and snow-white enamel that covers the interior and exterior.
Buy: BergHOFF White Neo 3-Quart Covered Cast Iron Dutch Oven, $50 (normally $120)
8. Smeg Hand Blender
Smeg appliances are pricey and rarely ever go on sale, which is why we were thrilled to spot this gorgeous hand blender that’s almost 20 percent off. It’s perfect for quick jobs and, given the sleek design, also easy to store. Plus, you can buy separate attachments (like a whisk and a potato masher) to get even more power out of your purchase.
Buy: Smeg Cream Hand Blender, $80 (normally $99)
9. Honey-Can-Do Locking 24-Piece Clear Storage Set
If you’ve ever dropped your leftovers on the floor — only to have the lid pop off, your lunch splattering everywhere — then you’ll want to check out Honey-Can-Do’s collection of sturdy storage containers. The lids lock on for an air-tight and water-tight seal, making them virtually spill proof. And they come in a variety of sizes, so you’ll always have just the right container for the job.
