We love turning to our Allstars for product recommendations since they’re truly experts in what works and what doesn’t in the kitchen. They’ve let us know what pans are the absolute best for eggs, what kitchen faucets are worth the upgrade, and even their favorite dinnerware sets. To find the best Memorial Day Weekend deals for this summer-opening holiday weekend, we combed through all of their recommendations to find the best kitchen and grill gear up to 53 percent off,  so you can stay focused on having the best summer ever!

Allstar-Loved Memorial Day Weekend Sales

Ninja Detect Kitchen System Power Blender + Processor Pro

Ninja TB401 Detect Kitchen System Power Blender + Processor Pro

Amazon

If you know your summer is filled with refreshing morning smoothies and afternoon margaritas, then you need an amazing blender. And Allstar Mary Burns has just the one! “We use our blender a lot during the summer,” she says. “We make lots of smoothies and cocktails in it. It is very powerful and blends well. It's easy to operate and clean.” We love that this isn’t just a blender, it also comes with an 8-cup food processor and a 24-ounce to-go cup.

AeroPress Original Coffee and Espresso-style Maker

Having the AeroPress on hand means you’ll always have great morning coffee while on summer vacation, even if that vacation is backpacking through a forest. Allstar Angela C. Sackett's AeroPress is actually her son’s, who took it along when hiking the Appalachian Trail!

Meanwhile, Allstar Nicole Geldart simply uses hers for her morning cup. “It's very easy to use, clean, and store,” she says. “It's perfect for single serving fresh coffee. I'd say one pain point is getting the hang of how long and hard to press down the plunger, but after using it a few times it's very easy to use!” Right now, it’s 20 percent off. 

Made In 10-Inch Non Stick Frying Pan

Amazon Made In Cookware 10" Nonstick Frying Pan

Amazon

There’s a lot of breakfast for dinner in our kitchens during the summer since that doesn’t involve the oven. But it also means we’re constantly on the hunt for a great pan for eggs. For that, we turn to Allstar Candice Walker's egg pan recommendation for the fluffiest scrambles.”I've used many egg pans, and finally found one I've been loving for at least 2 years now,” she says. “I've even bought them as gifts because everyone needs a great egg pan!” 

The 10-inch nonstick pan has high sides for minimal splatter, the perfect curve for quick flipping, and is made with two layers of nonstick coating. For this Memorial Day, Made In’s offering a $20 coupon on all fry pans, with $50 off the 3-piece set.

Margaritaville Key West Frozen Concoction Maker

Margaritaville-key-west-frozen-concoction-maker

Amazon

This margarita maker is how our Las Vegas-based Allstar Lisa Lynn Backus has been beating the heat for years. “Not only great for margaritas (traditional, watermelon, strawberry, etc.) but great for shaving ice,” she says.” I live in Vegas where it so hot in the summer, and it's great just to eat spoonfuls of the beautiful shaved blended ice it makes!!” 

All you have to do is add ice to the hopper—it can hold enough for three pitchers—and add your ingredients to the 36-ounce pitcher. Flip the switch and enjoy ice cold drinks all day long. Lisa even has an unusual tip: “If you are prone to dehydration and can't seem to get enough water.  Eating the Margaritaville shaved, crushed, blended ice really helps!!!” At 28 percent off, you won’t get a better deal on this perfect Father’s Day gift.

Doqaus Ice Cube Trays

Amazon DOQAUS Ice Cube Trays 4 Pack

Amazon

At less than $2 each, these ice trays are a favorite of Allstars Mary Burns and Melanie Giovenzana, and our top pick any day of the week. “They are plastic, but with a silicone bottom making it easy just to pop the ice out,” says Melanie. “There’s no need to twist the body and you can extract exactly the number of cubes you need.” A pack of four will keep you cool all summer long.

Mr Bar B Q Jalapeno Cooker

Mr Bar B Q 06136 Jalapeno Cooker

Amazon

This grill tool is perfect for anyone whose pepper plants are bountiful every summer. It’s another recommendation from Mary, our nearly year round griller. “We love our Jalapeno cooker rack for the grill,” she says. “Grilled stuffed jalapenos are one of our go to appetizers/sides. We like this rack. It's a little small, but still does the trick.” It’ll hold 22 peppers at a time and props up over your grill grate to avoid uneven heating (or too deep blistering). 

Keurig K-Elite Single-Serve K-Cup Pod Coffee Maker

Cyber Monday Amazon Keurig K-Elite Single-Serve K-Cup Pod Coffee Maker

Amazon

Allstar Lisa Altmiller doesn’t have time to wait around for a pot of coffee, so she turns to one of our favorite Keurigs to make a cup. “We’ve had a couple of Keurigs but this model is by far my favorite,” she says. “It’s been reliable, doesn’t drip all over the place, and is fast to heat up. It could be a little quieter, but I’d rather have slightly noisy than slightly messy!” 

Gramercy Adjustable Mandoline Food Slicer

Amazon Gramercy Adjustable Mandoline Food Slicer

Amazon

Allstars Jill Trei and Jessica Vogl both love this mandoline, and I love that it’s 53 percent off. Jill let us know why it’s one of her favorite summer tools: “I mainly use it to slice veggies very thin - for example, potatoes to make a potato gratin, beets for beet chips, zucchini to make a layered zucchini dish, etc,” she says. “It's so much easier than grating or using even a chef's knife.” When it comes to safety, both suggest being mindful of the blade and using the (included) hand guard.

Frigidaire 3/4 HP Corded Garbage Disposal for Kitchen Sinks

Frigidaire 3/4 HP Corded Garbage Disposal

Amazon

Of course, now’s the time to do those home renovations you’ve been putting off. If you’re looking to upgrade your kitchen sink, Allstar Sarah Stone recommends this garbage disposal. She wanted something relatively inexpensive and powerful, and came across this Frigidaire. We love that it’s 3/4-horsepower, which means it’ll break through whatever you send down the drain. Of course, we also love that it’s 43 percent off.

Kinsho Bento Box Lunch Boxes

Bento Box Lunch Boxes

Amazon

Whether you need new lunch boxes for summer camp, the office, or your holiday car trip, Allstar Mary Burns loves these durable bento boxes, which are 53 percent off for a 3-pack. “I bought this 3 pack set for my 8 year old daughter for school lunches,” she says. What she loves most is that her daughter can easily open and close them, something we can’t say for all lunch boxes.
