Black Friday Sale: Now through November 28th. Shop early for all the best deals!
Will Black Friday be worth it this year?
For the last two years, Black Friday was non-existent due to the pandemic and supply crisis.
Most manufacturers skipped Black Friday promotions because they didn’t have appliances to ship. The appliance industry seems to have a “sell first, then worry about it later” mindset.
This year will be different.
In this article, you will learn all about the best brands and products to consider. I will also tell you which companies will not be participating in Black Friday promotions.
As you may have guessed, it's not the day after Thanksgiving but weeks before. You should know when Black Friday promotions start so you can avoid the lines and possible supply issues.
Let's get started.

When Do Black Friday Promotions Start?
Black Friday now starts in early November. We are completely rolling out Black Friday promotions today, November 4th through Cyber Monday, November 28th.
What Brands Are Not Participating in Black Friday Promotions?
Luxury appliance brands such as Sub-Zero, Thermador, Bosch, Monogram, and Miele will not be participating in Black Friday promotions this year.
Mainly because lead times are 6-15 months out, and historically, they often don’t partake in promotional holidays.
If you are considering a premium brand, you want to order the appliances at the start of your project. Waiting for a promotional holiday could delay your construction.
Additionally, affordable luxury appliance brands like Beko, JennAir, KitchenAid, Whirlpool, SKS (Signature Kitchen Suite), and LG Studio are not participating for various reasons.
Those various reasons have been the same for the last two years: Supply chain issues causing a lack of deliverable products.
Not that it has stopped this industry in the past. However, if you buy one of these brands on sale, you will probably be waiting for an indeterminate amount of time.
What Brands Are Participating in Black Friday Promotions This Year?
That leaves us with GE, LG, and Samsung, who will all be participating in Black Friday promotions this year. LG and Samsung started Black Friday promotions years ago.
I would watch these three brands when and where you shop this year.
