Everyone is eying Instant Pot deals again now that Valentine’s Day is less than a week away. Instant Pots are awesome and most people out there would likely love to receive one as a gift. They’re also typically on sale at the lowest prices of the year ahead of holidays, so people scoop up new Instant Pots for themselves as well as to give as gifts. Among the deals you can find right now at Amazon are the #1 best-selling Instant Pot Duo Mini for just $59.99 and the high-end Instant Pot Max has a huge $50 discount today.

As great as those deals are, however, you may first want to consider another pair of sales on products from Instant Brands’ top rival.

The wildly popular Ninja Foodi OS301 multi-use pressure cooker is a fan-favorite model with more than 28,000 5-star ratings on Amazon. It has a 6.5-quart capacity plus nine different cooking modes, but the big news is that it has something you’ll never find on a comparable Instant Pot. In addition to standard cooking modes like pressure cooking, slow cooking, and steaming, Ninja’s Foodi OS301 has a built-in air fryer!

Ninja’s awesome OP301 multi-cooker has a hefty $250 price tag, but right now you can pick one up at Amazon for only $169.99. And if you want to upgrade to the extra-large model, the Ninja Foodi FD401 is down to $219.99 instead of $270. How good are these deals? Well, delivery estimates on Amazon are already starting to slip because so many people are taking advantage of these sales. With that in mind, we’re not sure how much longer you have to get in on the action.
