You’ll also find early Prime Day deals on top-rated home and kitchen goodies, like a HEPA air purifier, a soft, cooling bed sheets set, and a cold brew coffee maker.

This cordless stick vacuum would make a great addition to any utility closet since it can clean both carpet and hard floors, as well as upholstery. It can even convert from an upright vacuum to an extended wand and into a handheld. One reviewer shared: “I have a Dyson that costs several times more, and this vacuum works equally well.” The fact that it’s 79 percent off now is just a bonus.

What is Amazon Prime Day?

Amazon Prime Day is one of the biggest shopping events of the year. While it’s similar to Black Friday and Cyber Monday, Prime Day is exclusive to Amazon — but the deals aren’t any less impressive. Millions of products are typically marked down for the event, so shoppers can score savings on everything from home goods to trending styles to new tech.

The sale debuted as a one-day event in 2015 to commemorate Amazon’s twentieth anniversary. It’s since evolved into the two-day shopping spree we know and love today, with even more markdowns on even more brands to boot. Amazon Prime Day typically happens once a year and generally starts at 12:01 a.m. PT on the first day, then goes until 11:59 p.m. on the second.

Is Prime Day only for Prime members?

No, all shoppers can take advantage of the sales during Amazon Prime Day. While anyone can participate, Prime members will have access to exclusive discounts and can score additional savings on select items. Amazon Prime memberships are packed with more perks, too, including fast and free shipping, Prime Video access, Try Before You Buy eligibility, and more. If you’re not a subscriber already, sign up for a 30-day free trial of Prime to access its world of benefits (just in time for Prime Day!).

How often is Prime Day?

Amazon Prime Day typically happens once a year in July, with an exception in 2020 and 2021 during the coronavirus pandemic, which caused changes in the event’s usual schedule. While there are other sales events to enjoy at Amazon, like the Prime Early Access Sale that took place in October of last year, Prime Day is the best of the best.

What will be on sale during Prime Day?

To put it simply: a ton. There’s never a shortage of sales in any product category on Prime Day, and this year’s event isn’t expected to be any different. While there is no official release of discounted brands or products ahead of the event, this isn’t our first rodeo. You can anticipate major markdowns on kitchen gadgets, tech and electronics, wardrobe staples, and so much more. Based on our previous coverage of Prime Day, we’re expecting to see sales on Apple AirPods, Dyson vacuum cleaners, Birkenstock sandals, and Le Creuset cookware — just to name a few.
