Products for tackling everyday tasks at prices that’ll impress any grownup.

I am a staff writer on the BuzzFeed Shopping team who focuses primarily on practical and problem-solving products (although you can also catch me writing about cute, fun, and ~weird~ products, too!).

Prime Day can be *confusing* — we’re using our extensive shopping knowledge and tracking price history to give you the most accurate pricing information and vetted discounts/original prices. FYI, some of the “regular” prices listed on the sides of some listings are true original prices, some (when the best deals are Prime-exclusive) are lesser discounts that non-Prime members can take advantage of. We’ll let you know everything you need to know! 

FYI — deals move *fast*. We’ll do our best to keep this post and imagery as up-to-date as possible, but we can’t catch everything immediately. Check back throughout the week to see our latest updates as the deals change!

Note: To get the best prices on some of these deals you have to be a Prime member, so if you aren’t already, sign up for a free 30 day trial here.

Promising review: "For nearly all of my adult life, I was simply getting Gladware or Ziplock, letting them slowly deteriorate over the course of a few months, recycling them (or losing them), lather, rinse, repeat. It finally occurred to me to splurge on some good ones. I'm not one to review things very often, let alone food storage containers, but here we are. I've been so impressed and satisfied with these in just a few months that I feel compelled to tell y'all about them. They're super airtight, the plastic is crystal clear, and they've each been through the wash a dozen times with no particular sign of wear and tear yet. Usually by this point, the Ziplocs are cloudy, warped, have holes, etc. But these guys, they just keep ticking. We've put soup directly in them, frozen them, you name it. Worth the extra few bucks to keep a few more items out of the landfill." —Eric Beneau

Price: $79.99 (typically $129.99; smaller sets are also on sale) — and check out all the Rubbermaid deals here

Promising review: "I love my luggage set! They look gorgeous, and honestly, the quality is excellent. I’ve taken 15-day trips using only the carry-on and the personal bag — it’s amazing. At first, I thought they’d get dirty easily since they’re white, but they’re actually very easy to clean. The toiletry bag fits my Shark FlexStyle hair dryer and all the attachments perfectly." —Mariana R.

Price: $56.97+ (originally $89.99; available in seven colors)

Promising review: "We are very into fragrance-free, eco-friendly and safe products, especially with our newborn. We have never had any problem with this product, it’s pretty effective at cleaning our dishes and giving us the reassurance that it’s safe and free of harsh chemicals.

"No concerns with water spots and leaves our dishes pretty sparkle clean. Very very occasionally, we will see some white power residue and nothing a huge concern. Overall a very good product and highly recommend" —S_U

Promising review: "I’ve tried so many nipple covers over the years, and these are just in a league of their own! They stick and don’t move (sweat, clothes, moisturizer, etc. — nothing budges them), but then they peel off so easily. It’s magic. They are completely seamless, and my husband (without prompting) said they looked like a second skin. I’ve got quite 'triangular' boobs, and they completely mold to the shape and look like I just have no nipples lol. Only when I’m suuuuuper cold does any level of nipple start to show through, and even then, it’s minimal. They’re more pricey than others I’ve bought before, but so worth it. The others were one-and-done — these have held up through multiple wears and are still in perfect condition. Will repurchase them as soon as they wear out, without a doubt! No more bras!" —Alison

Promising review: "I decided to trust a TikTok that I saw featuring these pillows and checked out the reviews here and saw the hype. They are SERIOUSLY THE BEST PILLOWS EVER! Trust the reviews. Took two minutes to fluff up to use and both my fiancé and I are having the best sleeps now." —Ellen

Promising review: "These had great reviews but I was still a bit skeptical. I'm a bit of a pillow snob. These pillows — these amazing, heavenly pillows — are now my favorite part of going to bed. Soft but firm. How does that work? It gives support for me to sleep slightly propped up but I sink into this comfortable personal cloud. Soft, but firm. My head isn't sinking through the pillow to rest on my mattress, but I feel comfortably enveloped. Buy them. Add to cart. Buy now with one click. Stop the research. You've found the pillows you were looking for." —Marissa Urey

Price: $39.87 for the queen size (typically $59.99 — and shop all the Beckham Hotel collection deals and discounts here

Promising review: "LOVE these pillows! We have 2 homes and 12 beds, and every bedroom has these pillows! Our family and guests love them! I have gifted them to all of my adult children, too! No matter what firmness you prefer, this pillow is definitely the answer!!! They are durable, high quality, and fabulous overall!" —Michele Jasper

Price: $59.99 for two standard-size pillows (originally $81; also available in king size) — and shop all Casper deals here

Promising review: "This is a total luxury, but it sounds amazing! They are very sturdy and so easy to connect. They really cancel noise, you can have someone in front of you speaking, and you won't be able to listen, so it is very helpful when you need to focus or just want to zone out, but you can turn off the noise canceling with a button in the headphones if you need. They are heavier than other brands I've had, but not so much as to be uncomfortable. The battery lasts a LOT, and they charge pretty quickly." —Suyapa Sierra

Promising review: "I've been really happy with the Breville Barista Express espresso machine. The stylish design and built-in grinder make me feel like a true coffee connoisseur. The quick heat-up time and adjustable grind size make it easy to customize my perfect shot. And the programmable shot volume ensures consistent espresso shots every time. Plus, the bonus of being able to claim the title of 'at-home barista' is a definite plus. Highly recommend this machine to any coffee lover out there!" —Ashleigh Johnson

Promising review: "I love this product. It is very easy to use, somewhat lightweight, and the cleaning power is amazing. I used it to clean upholstered dining room chairs and I couldn't believe how much dirt it sucked up. Clean up was easy afterwards as well. Highly recommend" —Mary jo

Promising review: "This drill works fantastically! Great power and feels nice in the hand. Very grippy and durable, battery seems pretty good too, considering the price. Can’t go wrong with DeWalt and I am super happy to add this tool to my collection!" —Julie R.

Promising review: "The first night I slept on it, I fell asleep with the light on, which never happens to me. I thought it might be a one-off, so I bought it again for another house, and the same thing happened. The Kin 8-inch mattress was such a steal at this price that I ended up buying three of them and a Tuft & Needle topper (for a fourth bed). The mattress feels medium firm to me — one step above medium but one step below firm. The adaptive foam is super comfortable and as someone who sleeps cold, I haven’t noticed the mattress trapping any heat, but if it did (like a few other reviewers have said), I personally wouldn’t mind because I hate feeling cold at night. For reference, I have tried other non-memory foam mattresses. This one is the cheapest, ironically, and to me, it feels the best. Mattresses are one of the few areas in life where it seems you don’t get what you pay for." —Leah Jin

Price: $203.28+ (this is a Prime-exclusive deal; non-Prime members can get it for $331.68; originally $349. Available in sizes Twin–California King) — and shop all Tuft & Needle deals here

Promising reviews: "LOVE THIS! I hate cleaning my bathroom and using so many chemicals that never seem to work. I saw this product and decided to try it, and WOW, it was so easy to use and worked like magic on my glass shower, shower tiles, and sink/faucet. Picture 1: Before cleaning. Picture 2: After cleaning glass before cleaning tile floor. Picture 3: After cleaning glass and tile floor. This is definitely a must-buy product!!!!" —Laura

"Wow. Don’t waste your time with any other formulation that you found online. I’ve literally tried EVERYTHING! The soap/vinegar/baking soda, the expensive store-bought 'hard water cleaners.' I’ve scrubbed for HOURS! But this…. This product is like magic. It’s kind of like a paste that you can rub on with a microfiber towel, and the hard water stains literally just RUB OFF. Like butter! Seriously, the easiest option I have tried yet. I stopped within the first five minutes of cleaning to do this review because I was in shock. Coming from someone who never writes reviews! Take that as a sign to buy this immediately. What a game changer, I’m mad I’m just now finding this stuff lol!" —_kayla_carter

Promising review: "BIIIIGGG upgrade from my series 5 LOL. The watch interface picture is clear and noticeably bigger than the 38mm. The screen and watch itself look and feel just like any other Apple Watch- if you want to have a more “sleek” look, I’d definitely recommend buying other watch bands to complement this vibe. Many of the new features are easy to use. Battery life is the biggest improvement for me- I can wear my watch to sleep to get sleep scores and don’t typically have to charge it for at least 2 days (depending on how active I am/ how much I use my watch). Would recommend this watch as an upgrade from a previous series that may not have many of the same features, or for someone looking to get an Apple Watch for their ecosystem. I use my watch daily and find it a valuable addition to get and track health-related things. I got mine on sale for $299 and feel it was a good deal for a regular GPS and small sized watch." —emma

Promising reviews: "I’ve used multiple other electronic shavers, and nothing, I mean nothing compares to this one. This will literally leave you babyfaced, where as some other ones will leave a stubble. Will definitely be using this a whole lot more on the future!" —Nosey Rosey

"Best thing since sliced bread! I wish they would have made this 40 years ago! I literally have tried to cut or snag myself with this and still can't. This makes grooming those hard to see/reach areas sooooooo much easier." —James W.

Promising review: "I love the Echo Show, it's everything all in one device next to the bed. Voice commands, Alexa, Music, information, alarm clock, 24/7 weather (with accurate weather icons). I love the five choices for the clock face. It has a great, clear speaker and easy-to-access power and volume buttons when not using voice controls. The flat bottom keeps the Echo Show where you place it, yet it's light enough to move it around with ease. It has a clean, modern look." —Sherri

BuzzFeed editor Maitland Quitmeyer says, "I have the non-smart version of this in my bedroom, and I love it. Just note that when you get it, you need to take the filter out and unwrap it before using!"

Promising review: "TikTok was right — these actually work. As someone who suffers from dust allergies, I have no idea how I didn't get an air purifier before. Love this product, it's easy to connect and remote manage via the app." —Gil Hirak

Price: $96.50 (originally $159.99; available in three colors).

Promising review: "If you are considering getting a Keurig at a similar or higher price, skip it. This thing is far superior. I’ve had a couple of Keurigs, and I was hesitant to switch brands, but I’ve been happy with my other Ninja products, and this seemed like a better value. This one holds more water, takes up less counter space, has more options, is overall sturdier, and has the milk frother, which is a really nice little feature. You can do a small pot or a pod. I think it’s better looking on the counter, too. We’ve had it for a little while now and use it every day, and it performs perfectly every time." —Shannon McCarthy

BuzzFeed Deputy Editorial Director Elizabeth Lilly has been putting this toothpaste to the test:

"I've been testing out the whitening version of this toothpaste, and it works just as well as any drugstore brand toothpaste without irritation. (I'll occasionally get irritation from whitening strips and treatments, and space them out because of it, but I've had none with this!) My mouth just FEELS cleaner when I use this, and it's even easier to use my tongue scraper after brushing, too! I think this has earned a spot as my new go-to."

Promising review: "TheraBreath Deep Clean is the best toothpaste I’ve tried! It keeps my breath fresh for hours, feels gentle on my gums, and leaves my mouth super clean. The mint flavor is refreshing without being too strong. Definitely recommend." —Maryna Ruzieva

Promising review: "This toothbrush truly fights plaque. A great new brush in the Sonicare line." —R OConnor

Promising review: "Love my Hatch! I’m going to bed without my phone and that’s a powerful habit to break! I feel like Hatch is improving my bedtime routine neither night and morning. Best purchase of 2025!" —sarah chea

Promising review: "This is my second hatch product. I’ve tried knock-offs but NOTHING compares to the real thing. I bought my Hatch Restore 1 about 2 years ago, I FELL IN LOVE! The app makes setup and use so easy! I love that I can control it from the app from anywhere! Recently, one of the numbers on the display stopped working. I reached out to customer service, and they sent me a BRAND NEW restore 2, free of charge, no shipping fees, totally free!!!!! I’m even more in love with this one! It’s so beautiful, the app is even easier to use now, I’m so obsessed. Waking up is so easy with the sunrise light, I never used to be a morning person and now mornings are my favorite time of day. My sleep habits have improved exponentially, I get an overall better nights sleep and I wake up feeling refreshed and recharged! I cannot suggest this product any more I LOVE IT SO MUCH!" —Customer1

Price: $135.99 (originally $169.99; available in four colors). The Hatch Baby is also at a new lowest price.

Promising review: "The Amazon Smart Plug 2-Pack is fantastic! Setup was incredibly simple — I had both plugs up and running in just a few minutes using the Alexa app. They connect seamlessly with Alexa, so I can control lamps and appliances with just my voice or through routines. These smart plugs work reliably and have opened up so many possibilities around the house. I love being able to schedule lights, automate fans, and even control things when I’m away from home. They’re compact, unobtrusive, and haven’t caused any connectivity issues. Super affordable for a 2-pack and extremely user-friendly. Perfect for anyone looking to start or expand their smart home setup!" —Olivia Hasenkamp

BuzzFeed editor Melanie Aman says, "After working from home for the last three years, I've realized how much I value the air quality in my apartment. I live in an older building (think turn-of-the-century old), and there are lots of little holes and crevices where dirt, dust, and allergens can creep in. Coupled with the terrible air quality we've experienced in NYC because of wildfires in Canada a few months ago, the air in my home often triggers a sore throat, congestion, and sneezing fits in the morning. I have two air purifiers already, but I realized that buying replacement filters is ANNOYING and surprisingly expensive. The fact that this Shark air purifier can clean the air and doesn't need a filter replacement for five years is just *chef's kiss*. I keep this in the small office off the kitchen to help filter out odors from cooking, and it does a fantastic job. It also comes with a scented cartridge designed to keep your home smelling fresh. (Unfortunately, the scent gives me a headache, so I don't often have it running, but it does smell lovely!)"

Promising review: "I’ve wanted this Kindle since it came out but waited because my old Paperwhite still worked. I wish I would have upgraded sooner.

​"The dark mode is by far my favorite. I can finally read at night without disturbing my partner; it barely has a glow, whereas my old one would light up the room. The pages also turn much faster than my old device, which had started to lag. It is a little heavier, but not by much. Battery life is way better. I also love that you can tap anywhere to turn the page, which makes one-handed reading so much easier." —JP18267

PSA: A Peloton All-Access Membership must be purchased separately in order to access Peloton content on your Bike+.

Promising reviews: "Great workout! Stable, sturdy, solid construction and a great workout. The monthly cost for the Peloton membership is well worth it, too!" —Shawna

"The instructors are engaging, have great playlists, and offer a variety of different workouts. I am very competitive and enjoy pushing myself against others in real-time in classes. It makes the the time go by quickly and you have fun doing it! Great screen and functionality. It’s easy for the whole family to use. And it makes it easy to get your daily cardio in!" —epurice

Promising review: "The tens of thousands of 5-star Amazon reviews are reason enough to add the ChomChom to your cart immediately — but let me add my own personal review to the stack. I've been using the ChomChom for quite a while now, but I took the photos above literally just now to show just how quick, easy, and effective this roller is. It took 10 seconds to rid my velvet couch ottoman (yes, velvet...a terrible cat owner choice, I know) of the hair my two gray kitties are constantly leaving everywhere. It takes a bit of practice to get the hang of using this roller — at first, I thought you only brushed down in one direction, and was confused why it wasn't picking up hair. It's important to do a push-and-pull brushing in *both* directions so it actually pulls the hair inside, which does require you to apply a bit of pressure. Afterward, you'll just dump out the hair that's been trapped inside. The ChomChom is best for large flat surfaces like couches and beds." —Jenae Sitzes, BuzzFeed editor

Promising review: "These batteries hold up incredibly well in my wireless controllers and gaming accessories. No sudden drop-offs mid-session, and they last way longer than I expected. Solid performance, great value — definitely a must-have for any serious gamer." —corey

Promising review: "I use it daily, does rice decently and beans beautifully and is great for soups, stews, even things like poaching chicken breasts. Pretty much an essential piece of kitchen equipment at this point." –Rex

Price: $64.99 (originally $109.99; the three- and eight-quart sizes are also on sale).

Promising review: "So...this Waterpik is amazing. I had 4mm and 5mm periodontal pockets from not flossing and also experienced some bone loss. I also had to get a very uncomfortable deep gum pocket cleaning. I literally hated flossing and would find myself avoiding to floss, even though I needed it very much. My gums were red, swollen, and inflamed because I was in the early stages of periodontal disease. I started using the Waterpik flosser and instantly liked this way of flossing much better! After using it consecutively each night for only five days, my gums were noticeably better and felt much better. After two weeks of using the Waterpik flossing, coconut oil pulling, and mouthwash treatment, my gums have done a complete 180, and my mouth and gums are starting to heal properly! Also this flosser can be somewhat loud, but definitely gets the job done. I bought this with my own money, and this is an honest testimonial/review." —Ebony

Promising review: "Bought this product on sale, and it was worth the investment. It blends better than any other blender that I have had. Its multiple options allow for anything from smoothies to purees. I love that I can make soup with this blender. It has plenty of power and a large enough volume to make plenty for a small household. It is also easy to clean! If it is on sale, and you need a better blender, I definitely recommend it. Otherwise, it is very expensive at full price." —Daniel & Amanda

Promising reviews: "My dishes have never been so insulted. I bought Scrub Daddy hoping for a good scrub, but I didn't expect a relationship counselor for my dirty pots. This thing judges my burnt-on messes and then, with a smirk, obliterates them. My old sponges are now in therapy, wondering where they went wrong. 10/10, would recommend if you enjoy your dishes being shown who's boss." —Terrence reid

"Get yourself a scrub daddy. I’m obsessed and will never go back to a normal sponge again. Works better than anything else to clean, never molds, and is one of my all time favorite cleaning products." —adriana ibanez
