Another Hanes basic (that only just hit its all-time-low price today), these women’s PJs were abest seller during Amazon’s Big Spring Sale earlier this year. They’re made of a supersoft, breathable cotton-viscose blend that’s great for summer. Just note the price on these fluctuates a bit by size, but it’s a good price on good PJs no matter the discount on your size.

We tested (and liked) the minimalist tracking ring from Oura when it first debuted, and we’re currentlytrying on the new Oura 5 for size. If you are looking to get away from a smartwatch but still want those health metrics, last year’s Oura 4 is on sale for the lowest price ever: $226.

Alpine Silence Earplugs
Our No. 1 earplugs for sleep almost never go on sale, but right now, black and pink are both $17, and four other colors are $19. The V-shaped design fits snugly into the concha, which helps these plugs lie flatter than other models.

Purple’s uniquely springy, squishy, and supportive pillow is also quite expensive, so I strongly recommend buying it on sale. Now it’s 25 percent off, which is an even better deal than last Prime Day (when it was 20 percent off).

Canopy Bedside Humidifier 2.0
Canopy’s Best in Class humidifier is 36 percent off in white and 41 percent off in gray.

Shark’s best cordless vacuum (which is senior writerMichael Zhao’s pick for the best cordless vacuum overall) is down to its lowest price ever at $380. “it combines excellent cleaning power across all types of flooring with convenient features — like a self-emptying dock — that are still missing from much more expensive competitors,” Zhao says. ThePowerDetect Plusis the best at cleaning both soft and hard floors of any cordless vacuum Zhao’s tried, but if your home only has hard floors and low-pile rugs, the slightly cheaperPowerDetect Speedis an equally good option, and it’s on sale for the first time ever.

Roborock Q7 M5+ Robot Vacuum and Mop - White
Earlier this year, McMahon named this Roborock hisnew favorite robot vacuum. “It’s better at cleaning floors than our previous picks and powerful enough to suck fur out of thick carpets, plus it has a mopping function that would have been reserved for a more expensive robot several years ago,” he says. It’s dropped in price from $250 to $218 since the start of Prime Day.

Wartzman says Prime Day is, hands down, the best time to buy a Vitamix — which is why this 40-percent-off model is her top deal of theseveral dozen kitchen deals she reviewed.

McMahon typically recommends theApple Watch SE 3over theSeries 11, as it offers nearly all the same core features at a much lower price, but with this discount, he says it’s worth spending a little extra.

It also offers EKG and blood-oxygen monitoring, as well as notifications for hypertension, all of which the SE 3 lacks. For more, he found50-plus tech deals here.
