It’s that time of year, when your kitchen appliances are about to get a major workout. And, if your current gear isn’t quite up to snuff, you and your holiday baking can be in for a tough time.

That’s why it’s so exciting to see that Amazon has slashed prices up to 36 percent off on select Oster appliances. You can choose between a convection oven, a powerful blender, and a hand mixer that can actually soften butter for you (making cookie baking so much easier). But you have to act fast—these low prices are only for today. Here’s what’s on sale:

Oster HeatSoft Hand Mixer

This isn’t your mom’s old hand mixer. It actually uses heat to soften ingredients while mixing, so you can bake in an instant with fluffy results. The mixer even softens butter 12 times faster by using HeatSoft technology—you can bring cold butter to room temperature quickly.

That’s a big hit with reviewers. “The heat-soft technology is what sets this apart from other hand mixers I've owned. Cuts my prep time in half. Definitely a fan,” one five-star reviewer wrote.

The mixer has power, too. It features 270 watts with seven different speeds for versatility, and can even give you an extra burst of power to work through a tricky batter with a one-touch boost button. The HeatSoft Hand Mixer comes with beaters, dough hooks and whisks, and a convenient storage case to keep it all in one place. “I liked every feature of this mixer from the flat bottom for easy resting to the generous storage unit on the bottom,” a happy customer said.

Whether your regular oven just isn’t big enough for all your baking, or you’re in the market for a roomy convection oven, this 1500-watt version by Oster is a pretty amazing choice. It features convection technology for fast, even heating, just like you’d get in your “regular” oven.

You can do a little of everything with this oven: It features digital settings for making pizza, baking, broiling, toasting and even defrosting. The inside is roomy, allowing you to fit in two pizzas, a family-sized chicken, or up to 18 slices of bread at once. It includes two oven racks, a baking pan and an integrated broiling rack. “It's perfect for my studio,” one fan wrote. “I don't have a kitchen and I was eating out everyday... junk food. So I decided to start cooking healthy meals and I'm doing everything easily on it.”

One reviewer said the convection oven works even better than their regular oven. “I haven't used my main oven since I got this,” they noted.

This blender has power—1,000 watts, to be specific—allowing it to easily crush ice, pulverize frozen fruits and veggies and take on pretty much anything else you can throw at it. It features vacuum blending, which preserves more vitamins and nutrients compared to traditional blending. That vacuum tech also removes oxygen from the jar before blending for a smoother, bubble- and foam-free blend. Choose between five pre-programmed settings, and then pour your results into the complimentary 24-ounce vacuum-sealed storage cup for ultimate freshness on the go.

One five-star reviewer said that this is “money well spent,” noting that, “everything and I mean everything I have thrown in this thing has come out smooth and tasty.”
