Ready for the most magical internet shopping day of the year? Say hello to Amazon Prime Day. Markdowns of up to 80% on everything from home goods to tech to beauty tools are already live on the site. There’s a catch, though—these savings are only available to Amazon Prime members.
Already have a membership? Now’s the time to splurge on big-ticket finds such as TVs and tablets, that fun weird stuff sitting in your Amazon wishlist and even frequently repurchased household items like detergent. As a bonus, those who sign up for a Prime membership don’t just get free shipping and exclusive savings—Amazon TV shows and movies are included with membership.
Amazon Prime Day is basically Christmas in July. Deals are like the retailer’s Black Friday specials, only better. With hundreds of deals already live on the site, it’s worth signing up for a Prime membership (or taking advantage of a free 30-day trial) ASAP to score up to 80% off. Stock up on cooling bedding, household essentials and cleaning gadgets.
This year’s Amazon Prime Day is on July 16 and 17, 2024. Prime-exclusive savings are only available during the 48-hour period, so we recommend filling your cart before your favorites sell out. We expect to see slashed prices on bestsellers across all categories. Last year’s savings topped out at 70% for some finds, and this year’s sales look even better!
From vacmops to mattresses to luggage and beauty, these deals are the best that Amazon Prime Day has to offer. Plus, we’ve personally tested some of the products on this list, so when we say they’re worth your money, we’re speaking from experience. Markdowns range from 30% to upwards of 60%, but they won’t be around for long. Get them while they’re in stock!

Amazon Prime Day is huge for vacuum deals, but if we had to choose just one cleaning appliance to snag, it would be the Bissell CrossWave Floor and Area Rug Cleaner. At 38% off, it’s like scoring two appliances in one since the multipurpose gadget vacuums hard floors and then mops them all in one go. Plus, it’s safe to use on area rugs, saving time in the long run by vacuuming and mopping in one swipe. Â
Sale price: $255.49 | Original price: $477.99 | Savings: 47%
Score a queen-sized mattress for under $300 while the Signature Design by Ashley hybrid mattress is 47% off during Amazon Prime Day. Layered with cooling gel memory foam, this hybrid mattress offers a mix of plush yet firm support ideal for people with back pain and hot sleepers alike.Â

Looking for a bedding upgrade that doesn’t require committing to a new mattress? What about an affordable way to stay cool while sleeping during unbearably hot weather? A cooling mattress topper is the solution. At 30% off, the two-inch mattress topper adds a plush, breathable layer to any bed while the infused cooling gel helps cool you down. Choose from multiple sizes. The Twin XL deal is perfect for kiddos headed off to college this fall, too!

Dealing with thinning hair? We’ve never found a quicker solution than Toppik Hair Fibers, which conceal thinning hair and bald spots by attaching natural-looking, colored keratin protein fibers to the existing hair with static electricity. The fibers are available in different shades to match various hair colors and can resist wind, rain and sweat for long-lasting (yet still temporary) results.
Shopping Editor Stephanie Hope reviewed Toppik after struggling with self-consciousness about her thin hair, and she was an instant convert: “As someone who has dealt with hair that looks like it’s thinning most of my young adult life, I can say that Toppik Hair Fibers have given me back the confidence I lost alongside my hair.”
This Prime Day, give Toppik a try for less—this quick hair loss solution is on sale for 43% off.
Sale price: $49.99 | Original price: $89.95 | Savings: 44%
We’ve said it once, and we’ll say it again: it’s time to switch to a silk pillowcase. The high-quality silk fibers protect hair from frizzing overnight while protecting skin from rough materials. Now that mulberry silk pillowcases are 44% off on Amazon, there’s really no excuse not to sleep on one. The benefits will be noticeable in your skin, hair and overall sleep experience. Thank yourself later for switching to this simple bedding upgrade.
Sale price: $27.99 | Original price: $39.99 | Savings: 30%
Again, you don’t have to buy a new mattress just to sleep better. We’re firm believers that a really good pillow makes all the difference, especially one that boasts neck and shoulder support for side, back or stomach sleepers. This gel memory foam pillow offers all this and more—and by more we mean the breathable, cooling features to regulate body temperature while sleeping. For under $30, it’s the best time to stock up on one or two (or four!).
Sale price: $81.99 | Original price: $123.59 | Savings: 34%
Is it really Amazon Prime Day if we don’t mention the Bissell Little Green Machine? There’s a reason the portable carpet cleaner is on sale without fail every single year and the reason is this: it eliminates pet stains, coffee spills and everyday gunk in minutes. Our Bissell Little Green Machine review proves no mess is too messy for this cleaning powerhouse, so make sure to grab it while it’s 34% off for peace of mind when inevitable stains and spills occur.
Sale price: $34.89 | Original price: $49.99 | Savings: 30%
Speaking of smooth travel, a portable charger is non-negotiable—preferably one that doesn’t require cords like the Anker magnetic battery. Compatible with iPhone 13, 14 and 15 models, the charger snaps onto the back of your phone and even has a kickstand for watching shows while charging on the go. The magnetic charger is already a dupe for the Apple MagSafe battery pack, but now that it’s 30% off for Prime Day it feels like a total steal. Â
Sale price: $299.99 | Original price: $549.99 | Savings: 45%
Speaking of vacuum deals, we found the best Amazon Prime Day deal on robot vacuums. At nearly 45% off, the iRobot Roomba i3+ is self-emptying and boasts smart mapping technology to navigate your home while focusing on the dirtiest areas first. Connect it to Alexa for a truly hands-free cleaning experience. Out of all the robot vacuums you can buy, the iRobot Roomba is one of our favorite models for its self-emptying technology and smart home compatibility.
Sale price: $47.60 | Original price: $68 | Savings: 30%
Now’s the time to stock up on a tube (or two, or three) of GrandeLash Lash Enhancing Serum while it’s 30% off. We found the serum to be a true game changer in our testing, so trust us when we say, run don’t walk to snag this deal before it’s completely sold out. Enjoy noticeably longer lashes in just four to six weeks of consistent use.Â
Sale price: $1,084 | Original price: $1,445 | Savings: 25%
While you’re stocking up on smaller items, don’t miss the best Amazon Prime Day deal of all: More than $300 off the Peloton exercise bike.

The 10 pressure settings and seven water flosser tips achieve a superior clean that ordinary floss just can’t match.
Sale price: $199 | Original price: $349 | Savings: 43%
Whether you’re taking work calls from home or listening to music on a walk, high-quality headphones make all the difference.
