Home cooks all have kitchen favorites. Whether it's a sleek coffee maker, tried-and-true skillet, elegant serving tray, or classic chef's knife, we gravitate toward particular pieces time and time again thanks to a combination of performance, sentimentality, and style.

We have favorites, too. Our Food & Wine Faves seal of approval comes from hours of research — we're obsessively tracking the latest launches and tap into our vast network of restaurant professionals — and testing in our professional and home kitchens. We look at the design and build of cookware and appliances, how they perform side-by-side, and how they stack up for their price points.

And to streamline the process, we've rounded up the biggest savings for you to shop.

Below, you can find 15 Prime Day deals on Food & Wine Faves. But if something catches your eye, add it to your cart ASAP. Many of the markdowns come in limited quantities or have a 24-hour time limit, so you'll have to act quickly. 

If you're cooking with sticky ingredients or nonstick cookware, you need a solid set of silicone spatulas. This four-piece set from U-Taste came out on top of our testing because of  how comfortable the spatulas are to hold, as well as how sturdy they are; they stood up to temperatures as high as 500 degrees Fahrenheit without melting or warping.

We spent 30 hours baking dozens of batches of gingerbread, butter cookies, and more to find out that the simplest design is often the best. Case in point: Nordic Ware's commercial-quality  sheet pans are streamlined, sturdy, and naturally nonstick. Get a set of two for just $22 right now.

Lodge has been a go-to for generations of home cooks thanks to its top-notch and affordable cast iron cookware. When we tested the best bread cloches for crispy, chewy sourdough, the brand's 5-quart Dutch oven performed nearly as well as the Best Overall pick that is two times the price. And right now, it's even cheaper for Prime Day.

This cold brew maker is top of the line, and it's the cheapest it's been all year right now. It holds up to 28 ounces (about 14 servings) and is designed with a tap dispenser for convenient pouring, which our professional barista testers appreciated. 

After days of cooking frozen food, roasting veggies, crisping chicken, and baking cornbread, we were impressed by the solid performance of the Instant Pot Vortex Plus, as well as its affordability. For Prime Day, you can get the versatile appliance for $40 off.

Streamlined, lightweight, and simple to assemble, the Amzhef juicer produces top-notch beverages without a fuss. It was already an affordable option in our list of test kitchen-approved juicers, and now it's 55% off.

When it comes to paring knives, you want a sharp blade that's easy to sharpen and clean and an ergonomic handle that's easy to maneuver. Misen's 3-inch knife was our testers' overall favorite because its balanced body and long handle made it effortless to use. 

From simple seltzers to soda fountain classics to effervescent cocktails, a soda maker allows you to customize the flavors and fiz-levels of your favorite bubbly beverages. Sodastream's Fizzi Onetouch does so in seconds; our testers appreciated its user-friendliness and the mouthfeel of its three carbonation levels.

Our testers cooked 68 omelets, 51 pancakes, and 48 ounces of salmon in 13 different pans to see which were actually nonstick. All-Clad's hard anodized set passed with flying colors, and now it's a steal at just $45 apiece.  

If you don't have the space or the budget for a big stand mixer, KitchenAid's cordless hand mixer can perform many of the same tasks with ease. Because it's powered by a rechargeable battery, our testers found it particularly convenient to carry around and noted that it is user-friendly and powerful — even when dealing with tough ingredients.

A solid chef's knife is a kitchen essential, and this 8-inch option from Mac is the best of the best. Our testers loved how lightweight and sharp it is, as well as the thin dimpled blade that prevents foods from sticking. And because of its sturdy pakkawood handle, it was easy to control no matter what types of ingredients we were slicing. 

To make a show-stopping dessert that's truly easy as cake, we recommend Nordic Ware's Platinum Collection Bundt Pan that's 32% off right now. It has a light-colored surface that doesn't get as hot in the oven (to keep cake from drying out), and its simple and stylish design is elegant enough for any occasion. We're also fans of its two handles for easy lifting in and out of the oven.

Thanks to its two cooking plates and rotating design, we found Crux's waffle maker perfect for big breakfasts or at-home brunch parties. It also has a nonstick coating that easily releases waffles and makes cleaning the plates a breeze.

Small but very mighty, this personal blender from Ninja was able to blitz through frozen leafy greens and ice without struggling. Its AutoIQ program automatically sets the time and pulse patterns for smoothies, and it was one of the only models that made chunky (not liquid) salsa. Normally $100, the blender is just$76 today.

If you're trying to keep delicate foods fresh, we're fans of this vacuum sealer from NutriChef that's $12 off. During testing, its powerful suction removed all air pockets without crushing our fragile subjects: Life cereal and raspberries.
