Top products we tested
Apple 2022 MacBook Pro 13% OFF
When testing this MacBook, we were impressed with its speed and capacity for multitasking. Any load times or wait times are basically nonexistent. The display is sharp and clear with a great color range. We also love that the keyboard is significantly quieter to type on than those on older Macs.
Sold by Amazon
Dyson Airwrap 8% OFF
Designed to dry, curl and style hair, the Dyson Airwrap is a bit of an investment, which is why Prime Day is the perfect time to buy. In our testing, we found it worked quickly and easily on a range of styles, but particularly for long hair. It left hair feeling notably more healthy compared to when heat styling.
Sold by Amazon
Fitbit Charge 5 UP TO 33% OFF
While evaluating this fitness tracker, we loved the big screen, as it’s far easier to read and use than models with smaller screens. We appreciated the amount of data it tracked and the reminders to drink more water. It’s currently up to 33% off, depending on the color you choose.
Sold by Amazon
Dash Mini Waffle Maker 23% OFF
Great for solo breakfasts or small households, this waffle maker produces one mini waffle at a time, measuring around 4 inches across. We found that it cooks evenly and produces light, fluffy waffles. It didn’t stick to the plates, so cleaning was easy.
Sold by Amazon
Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Tablet 32% OFF
Using this tablet, we enjoyed how sleek, light and compact it is, while still feeling solid. It’s easy to set up and straightforward to use, particularly if you’ve used an Android phone or tablet before. The display is bright, crisp and impressive.
Sold by Amazon
Amazon Fire TV 50-Inch Omni Series 4K UHD Smart TV 15% OFF
This is a great TV in its own right, but the built-in Alexa assistant makes it easy to use hands-free. During testing, we found it simple and intuitive to set up and use. The Alexa controls were a hit.
Sold by Amazon
Shark V1001AE IQ Robot Self-Empty XL Robot Vacuum 31% OFF
Why vacuum your home when a robot can do it for you? We tested this robot vacuum in a house with pets, and it did a great job of picking up hair. It was easy to set up and, once that was done, we didn’t need to do anything other than empty the base (which only needs doing every month or so).
Sold by Amazon
NutriBullet Rx N17-1001 Blender 27% OFF
If you’re looking for an easy way to make smoothies, this NutriBullet might be the answer. We love how quickly and easily it breaks down even fibrous and hard produce, such as kale and frozen fruit. Plus, it took up very little counter and cabinet space.
Sold by Amazon
Recommendations from our experts
Shark S3501 Steam Pocket Mop 43% OFF
This handy steam mop is recommended by our cleaning expert, Ketia Daniel, who calls it “practical and easy to use.” It takes just 30 seconds for the steam to be ready, and it comes with two machine-washable cleaning pads.
Sold by Amazon
VacLife Handheld Vacuum 28% OFF
Another recommendation from Daniel, this car vacuum helps keep your vehicle neat and tidy. Its cordless design means it’s easily portable, and its brush attachment helps with stubborn dirt and fabric upholstery.
Sold by Amazon
Vitscan Gallon Water Bottle with Straw 47% OFF
According to our fitness expert, Judd NeSmith, this bottle is a firm favorite among many of his clients. It’s perfect for carrying to the gym, where staying hydrated is even more important. The handle makes it easy to lift and the measurement lines help you keep track of how much you’ve drunk.
Sold by Amazon
Torege Sports Sunglasses 20% OFF
NeSmith also recommends these scratch-resistant sunglasses, which he calls “very stylish and very versatile.” They come in more than a dozen colors and are available at a great price, so you won’t feel bad if you lose them.
Sold by Amazon
Black and Decker Workmate Workbench 9% OFF
Our home improvement and DIY expert, Beth Allen, owns and recommends this workbench. She says it’s “easy to fold, easy to set up, and sturdy yet light enough to be portable.” It has adjustable jaws and allows for vertical clamping.
Sold by Amazon
DeWalt MAX XR Multi-Tool Kit 15% OFF
This multi-tool kit is another recommendation from Allen. She loves that it’s powerful but has the versatility that comes with being cordless. She says it’s great for beginners and describes it as an “excellent addition to the toolbox.”
Sold by Amazon
Differin Acne Treatment Gel 31% OFF
Dermatologist and BestReviews skin care expert Dr. Alina Zufall recommends this acne treatment gel. She thinks it’s good for all kinds of acne treatment regimens but can be especially helpful for anyone trying to get rid of blackheads and whiteheads.
Sold by Amazon
Cetaphil Healthy Radiance Whipped Day Cream 40% OFF
Zufall is also a fan of this whipped day cream. She says it doubles as a moisturizer and feels light on the skin. The niacinamide and bakuchiol help reduce inflammation and repair the skin barrier, according to Zufall.

Rellorus Automatic Cat Feeder 24% OFF — Tara Graves, Assignment Editor
“I got this cat feeder in January, and I love it. My cats like to scream for food in the morning, which puts me in a not-great mood first thing, but they don’t do that anymore since they know the food robot will feed them at the same time every morning.”
Sold by Amazon
Hoover CleanSlate Portable Carpet and Upholstery Cleaner 40% OFF — Jennifer Manfrin, Writer
