Shoppers are ditching their irons for this portable steamer, $24 for a limited time
Heading on a trip soon? During your travels, you may be planning on exploring a foreign city, indulging in a few special dinners aboard a cruise ship or enjoying evenings out with friends and family on the road. You'll want to pull out your best outfits for the occasion, but a wrinkled look? Probably not the vibe you're going for. A simple solution thousands of Amazon shoppers (and our home and garden writer) swear by is the top-selling (as in, more than 20,000 purchased in the past month) Hilife Clothes Steamer. It also happens to be down to just $25, but only for a limited time during Amazon's Presidents' Day sale.

If you're traveling for an out-of-town wedding or need to get wrinkles out on the go, this compact steamer will give you so much bang for your buck. In fact, this is the best price we've seen it marked down to in years — you're saving nearly 50%. That said, this is a lightning deal that'll disappear once it's 100% claimed, so you'll want to act fast!
It's popular for many reasons, including its uncomplicated nature, ease of use for travel and fun factor. Yep, "fun" was a recurring descriptor in the reviews. The heat panel is stainless steel, which is anti-rust and anti-oxidation — and it lasts longer than aluminum models. Plus, it has a conveniently long cord.
The handheld design and the extra-long 9-foot cord make it a cinch to move around, so you can complete the task quickly, easily and some even say joyfully. The petite size of this 1.7-pound wonder makes it particularly popular for travel — it's like a mobile spa treatment for travel-weary outfits.
The Hilife Clothes Steamer isn't just for everyday garb. The manufacturer recommends it for use on everything from wedding dresses to plush toys, and users have loved how it's made fast work of curtains, comforters and more. Here's what Yahoo Home and Garden Writer Kristin Granero has to say: "The Hilife Steamer was incredibly effective at removing the wrinkles from my silky skirt — and that was with only a few passes of steam. For being so powerful, it's also incredibly gentle and fast (it took seconds to heat up and only a few minutes to de-wrinkle my skirt from front to back)."
More than 76,000 shoppers are also in love with this steamer.
Pros 👍
"Let me tell you, this clothes steamer is like a magic wand for your wardrobe," raved one shopper. "It's like the Harry Potter of home appliances — waving its wand (or nozzle) and making your clothes look like they just came out of the dry cleaners."
"This is a great little steamer!" wrote another satisfied customer. "I hate to iron and don't need my clothes absolutely perfect, just nice and presentable, and this does the trick! Very easy to use, quick to heat up and does a great job [of] getting wrinkles out!"
A third superfan said, "If you don't have an iron, this is the next best thing. It literally takes one minute for it to heat up, then you are ready for wrinkle-free clothes. I'm obsessed with this."
One jetsetter wrote that it was the "best small steamer I've had!" adding: "Heats fast, has great steam output and with the extra long cord, I'm able to hang the garment on the shower rod to steam. Really convenient for taking along on a recent trip."
"I used this steamer on my fiancé's wedding shirt and it worked way better than I was expecting!" exclaimed a five-star fan. "I have tried using irons in the past and have actually ruined shirts, so I wanted to give a steamer a try and I was not disappointed! Very easy to use!"
Cons 👎
"Easy to use!" echoed a generally pleased reviewer. "I used this for several items of clothing, and I was so pleasantly surprised! The only complaint I would have is that the water runs out too quickly. It still does a lot of clothes, though."
A final shopper said it would've been nice if "it had a stand for clothes," but stressed that "it works well and is effective at removing wrinkles."
If you are wishing for wrinkle-free clothing at home and on the fly, this may be your $24 ticket. Happy travels!

35 Budget-Friendly Ways To Transform Your Backyard
A pack of solar-powered garden lights to turn your yard into a wind-powered light show. They charge during the day and glow at night, no plugs or switches required. A flexible adjustable mister so you can feel like you're at a high-end resort when you're lounging around outside during a really hot day. Just hook it up to your hose and voilà! It's ready to go. Or a misting system if you're already sweating just thinking about summer and want maximum misting in your outdoor space. This easy little setup connects to your garden hose and mists a fine spray that can cool the area by up to 20 degrees. Perfect for patios, play spaces, or wherever else you'd rather not melt. A fade-resistant outdoor umbrella for relaxing without worrying about harmful UV rays. (But remember to always wear sunscreen when your skin's exposed to the sun!) It's got a diameter of 7.5 feet, which can provide shade for a small table and three or four chairs. Note: The umbrella stand is not included, but this is a good one if you need one. Promising review: "This umbrella was perfect and met my needs. I live in a condo and needed a way to shade the balcony from the intense morning sun. This worked really well. The setup was easy. The crank works well ,and the tilt is easy to do." —DanielleGet it from Amazon for $37.99+ (available in 15 colors and patterns). And a clip-on umbrella light, because sometimes a great day on your balcony turns into a great night, and you want to make sure you have the proper illumination. A waterproof outdoor curtain to either partition off space in your outdoor space or provide you with some privacy, like if your balcony looks directly onto someone else's balcony or something unsightly. A pack of four plant supporters because some plants just need extra help staying upright. Bonus points because the metal is powder-coated green, which camouflages well. A set of metal hanging flower pots so you can have fresh flowers or herbs, regardless of whether you have a plot of dirt to grow them in. Each set includes 10 planters, so you can plant different types of flowers, herbs, and other greenery to really make a big visual impact. A set of metal wind chimes that'll turn your yard into a peaceful soundtrack. With six precision-tuned tubes, it plays soft, melodic tones in the breeze. It also comes with a strong hook for easy hanging. Promising review: "I purchased the rose colored chimes. I've been outside daily, working on the yard. Yesterday, I noticed a feeling of calm as a small storm moved in. It was the chimes, without noticing, they played in the background and moved me into a relaxed state." —PegiGet it from Amazon for $27.89+ (available in seven colors and three sizes). Or some bamboo wind chimes to bring some zen vibes to your outdoor space. When it moves, the bamboo produces deep, soothing tones that'll blend nicely with nature's soundtrack. No batteries, no wires, just peaceful background music you didn't have to find via a playlist. Promising review: "Was actually a little bigger than I expected to be for the price. Beautiful and well worth the money. Sounds beautiful." —Ashleigh Yates Get it from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in two sizes). Ooooor a set of solar wind chimes for bringing a little glow and gentle sound to your outdoor space after dark. The charge during the day, then kicks on automatically at night with soft, color-changing light. Promising review: "Ok so I absolutely LOVE this! So much so I have bought two more for gifts, lol. They shine wonderful amounts of light. The whole unit is lightweight. Hangs well and blows nicely in the wind. I could watch it for hours... and have. I see more orders in my future." —Fairy girl Get it from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in seven shapes). Some waterproof and shatterproof solar-powered outdoor string lights to turn your backyard into a whimsical nighttime oasis. Perfect for draping over trees, winding around railings, or highlighting the edges of your outdoor living space, they create an intimate setting that's both magical and inviting. Brightech is a small business in Los Angeles that sells indoor and outdoor lighting for the review: "I have had these lights up since the end of September 2022. They lit up right out of the box. They have been through a snowstorm, ice storm, and massive rain, and are still perfect. They are pretty easy to hang. They are shatterproof, which I love. —D KellyGet it from Brightech on Amazon for $27.99+ (available in warm or soft light). A pack of sunflower seeds with nine varieties so your backyard will be an oasis for honeybees, bumblebees, hummingbirds, and butterflies. Each package has over 1,000 seeds and can cover up to 325 square feet. Or a pack of wildflower seeds that'll turn a sad patch of dirt into a butterfly-and-hummingbird buffet. You get over 30,000 seeds (!!!) across 23 varieties, so even if half of them ghost you, you'll still end up with a bloom-filled backyard. Seed Needs is a family-owned small business in Michigan that makes seed packets. Promising review: "I bought this package hoping to attract butterflies. It did not disappoint. I have the opposite of a green thumb, and this was super easy. I couldn't tell you the names of any flowers, but we have at least six different types. I overseeded a smaller area, so I will probably make the area larger or only do half the seeds next year. We can go outside at any time and see our beautiful flowers and SO many butterflies! 10/10" —Tesa TaylorGet it from Amazon for $5+ (available in four mixes and two sizes). An outdoor rug for an instant (and cheap!) way to make your outdoor space look pulled together. The bold floral print brings the color, it folds up when you don't need it, and it costs less than a round of drinks. Promising review: "Love this outdoor rug and it's reversible. White where the yellow is on this side. I love it ... the yellow is a beautiful, bright color. Just magical." —BarbGet it from Amazon for $39.99+ (available in three colors and three sizes). Or a geometric black and white outdoor rug so chic it'll instantly transform your backyard into a scene straight out of The White Lotus. Not only does it add a touch of pizzazz to your outdoor space, but it's also made from durable materials designed to withstand the elements. Hauteloom is a small business in Georgia that sells rugs for the review: "Delivered exactly as described. This is a really beautiful outdoor rug that adds coziness and pop to my deck. I put heavy items around the perimeter of the rug for a day to help flatten the edges. Great price for a great quality rug." —Amazon CustomerGet it from Amazon for $35+ (available in 15 sizes and three colors). Some solar-powered stair lights that'll keep your stairs from turning into a tripping hazard after dark. They're waterproof, they charge themselves (bless), and they'll make your stairs look like the runway your guests deserve. Promising review: "Where I live, it's so dark and I have no outside electricity off my screened-in deck. I wanted lights for my stairs for safety and found these lights, which work and look great! They come with everything you need to fasten them to the stairs so they don't fall off as well. I even bought extra and tested them in the event that the ones that are currently outside get damaged for any reason, and they are no longer sold. Definitely recommend for the price, nice and bright, and easy installation. Plus, they last all night long!" —BrookeGet it from Amazon for $30.99+ (available in warm or cool white light and six pack sizes). A wooden wall-mounted trellis for adding some vertical greenery to your exterior walls. From potted plants to air plants, this trellis will provide you with everything you need to help your garden grow vertically. A wood patio set that's cute enough to impress your guests and comfy enough to keep them lingering. The slatted acacia wood and crisp cushions give it a clean, modern vibe, and the table is juuuust the right size for a couple of cold bevvies and a snack bowl. It's proof that functional doesn't have to mean boring. Promising review: "I was looking for some nice small chairs to put on our front patio. We had camping chairs out there before and they looked awful from the street. We ordered this little set and it has been perfect. They have great street appeal. They are extremely comfortable. The cushions are firm and supportive. We easily sit out here for an hour or two now each day. Cat and human approved." —Vik Get it from Amazon for $74.99. An inflatable pool for taking a dip whenever you please. No packing a bag and heading to the local pool required. It has a built-in bench and a couple of cupholders, too! And a dog/kiddie pool so the tiny tots and furry friends in your life have a safe spot to splash, too. This folds up for easy storage when not in use and doesn't need to be inflated to work. A Chomp! oil stain remover to finally get rid of those nasty spots on your patio and walkways. Just smear on the thick gel, let it dry, and peel it up. It's heavy-duty help for the kind of stain that you thought was permanent. Promising review: "I went in skeptical, I'm not going to lie. We had grease spilled on our brand-new paver patio. The grease had been sitting for a few weeks, and I saw an ad for this stuff. I ordered it to try because why not? Well, I'll be damned because this took the spots right off! No evidence we ever spilled anything! I'd buy it again." —SusanGet it from Amazon for $17.97. A colorful three-piece patio set if you want a cozy place to enjoy your morning cup of joe or a meal al fresco. The bright color will create a nice focal point for your outdoor space. Promising review: "This set was just what I needed to add a pop of color to my porch. It seems sturdy and tolerant of extreme weather conditions. My friends and neighbors love the bright yellow." —Judith J. Get it from Amazon for $109.99+ (available in five colors). Or a three-piece folding wood bistro set that comes with the cushions. This is such a timeless look; you can put this anywhere and it's sure to impress. Promising review: "I recently moved and have a small front patio. The rules of the complex are neutral as far as furniture is concerned. And so I spent forever looking for something that would fit the color scheme, plus be cute and comfortable. I am so so happy with this purchase. The table and chairs are not only a good size, but they are tall! I myself am almost 6 foot tall, and to not have to lean over with a patio set is really cool. The cushions are very comfortable, and the setup was extremely easy. Highly recommend." —Ashley kGet it from Amazon for $109.99+ (available in three colors). A triangular sail to block harmful UV rays and also provide you with necessary shade. A simple way to create a relaxing area. The corners of the sails have D rings so you can attach them to whatever you'd like with your choice of hardware or review: "Purchased this to increase privacy and provide some shade. The color is vibrant, hasn't faded, and the loops are well-stitched. The sail has also fared well in winds, thunderstorms, monsoon rain, and the brutal heat of Vegas. Shade is wonderful and one can definitely feel the temperature difference from full sun to being under this sail. The look and feel compliments our pool area and will certainly be purchasing an additional one." —VHC MediaGet it from Amazon for $23.99+ (available in a variety of sizes and 12 colors/patterns). A hanging hammock chair, because sometimes you just need a main character moment and this is the chair that'll give it to you. A bottle of Scotts multipurpose outdoor cleaner if you want to tackle dirt, mildew, and grime without blasting everything with bleach. It's tough on messes but gentle enough for your exterior. Just spray, scrub (if needed), and admire how much less gross everything looks. A seeding start kit for giving your backyard a literal fresh start. This little setup is basically the pregame to a garden glow-up: it comes with everything you need to start a whole lineup of veggies, herbs, or flowers indoors before sending them out to thrive in the wild (aka your raised beds). Plus, it's way more fun than impulse-buying yet another sad basil plant from the grocery store. The kit has space for up to 72 seedlings in cells measuring 1.5" x 1.5" x 2" each. Entire tray is 10" x 20" x 5". Recommended for use with a heat mat to promote germination. Once sprouts emerge, use a plant grow light or place near a well-lit review: "As an avid gardener, I've found this kit to be an essential tool for starting seeds and nurturing young plants before transplanting them into the garden. Each cell is sturdy and well-designed, ensuring proper airflow and drainage to promote healthy root development. The included greenhouse dome helps retain moisture and warmth, promoting optimal germination and seedling growth. Incredibly user-friendly, making it suitable for both beginners and experienced gardeners alike. The included growing medium is pre-fertilized and ready to use, eliminating the need for additional soil amendments and saving time during the planting process. Highly recommend." —Blondie16Get it from Amazon for $19.99. And a pack of the 20 most popular vegetable seeds to basically turn your vegetable beds into your own organic produce market. From beets and cucumbers to cabbage and okra, there are enough seeds to grow plenty of produce year-round. A three-piece wicker chair and table set for under $100 that doesn't look like it came from the dusty clearance corner of a big-box store. You get two cushioned chairs, a glass-top table, and the undeniable satisfaction of leveling up your outdoor space without blowing your budget. A two-pack of solar-powered outdoor lantern lights to add just the right amount of illumination to your backyard. Because they don't require electricity, you can hang them and then not worry about maintenance. Promising review: "My goodness, I did not expect to love these lanterns as much as I do. They are very, very good quality and display lots of light. I hung both of them between my small patio and English garden, and they provided enough light for both areas. I received them late afternoon, so they got about four hours in the sun. At 9 p.m., both came on like clockwork. I got up at 3 a.m. to check if they were still on, and they were as bright as ever. They are so dang cute and unique in my yard. I will be buying more. Love, Love, Love them." —Dog TailorGet it from Amazon for $32.99+ (available in three styles). An outdoor inflatable ottoman so you can kick your feet up after a long day. It's fade- and water-resistant, and deflates for easy storage when not in use. Just inflate the interior pouf and stick it inside the printed, water-resistant review: "Love these! Ordered two more. The fabric is very nice and sturdy especially for outdoors. The inflatable part appears to be good quality. How to: Place inflatable inside of cover before inflating it. Do not inflate to full capacity or it will look like an inflatable and will not rest in a nice flat position. Far nicer than I imagined. They look great flanking my outdoor rattan sectional." —Cali gGet it from Amazon for $36.99 (available in 18 fabric patterns). A colorful small raised garden bed that costs less than takeout and looks like it came from a Crayola collab. It's tall enough to save your back, compact enough for small spaces, and colorful enough to count as decor. A cheerful little upgrade for anyone flirting with the idea of gardening. Promising review: "I searched all over for a planter small enough to fit on my porch. I'm so happy I came across this one. There really isn't anything out there right now that's 1. This size, and 2. This price. It's exactly what I was looking for, and I was able to plant six herbs in it. Assembly was easy but it helps if you have an extra hand to hold the pieces together. It's made out of metal and feels very sturdy. It has a drain hole, which is a plus. I highly recommend this, especially if you are limited on space." —ChristineGet it from Amazon for $45.99. An instant mold and mildew stain remover spray to take your patio, siding, or outdoor furniture from "abandoned for decades" to "ready for guests" in seconds. Just spray it on and watch the gunk disappear like magic. It's powerful, a little smelly, and kind of a miracle if you've been neglecting your exterior for who knows how long. And a glassworks wind chime for adding some gorgeous color to your outdoor space. Nearly all wind chimes are metal or neutral tones — which is fine! — but it's refreshing to find an option that has a bit more flair.

Amazon drops Adidas deals from $10 — 15 deals I'd add to my cart on sneakers and apparel
Adidas makes some of the best looking and most comfortable activewear around. So if you want to give your wardrobe a summer refresh, make sure to take advantage of the current epic Adidas sale at Amazon. Slides are the perfect summer shoes to relax in, and right now you can get the Adidas Adilette Aqua Slides on sale from $17 at Amazon. I personally wear my own Adidas slides pretty much 24/7. Or, if you need something to keep warm when the evenings get chilly, the Adidas Essentials Warm-Up 3-Stripes Track Top is now on sale from $27 at Amazon. Prices vary based on your choices of size and color, so check out any different color options in your size to find the best deals. Plus, check out our Amazon promo codes coverage. Whether you're at the beach, gym or grabbing a coffee, these sandals do the job. They feature a contoured footbed that makes them comfy to walk in, and a hook-and-loop bandage upper dries quickly. Additionally, they complement everything perfectly. These Adidas Barreda Sneakers look totally iconic and come in a range of eye-catching colors. But they're comfortable and sturdy too, thanks to their cushioned midsole and traction rubber outsoles. Suited for casual wear, the Adidas Men's Kaptir 3.0 have ultra-soft Cloudfoam midsoles for a cushiony feel underfoot. They also feature a large Adidas logo across the side, so no one will question where you got your shoes from. The sequel to the Adidas Duramo SL running sneakers has hit the market. We liked the original's lightweight, breathable design, and those features have been carried over. The Duramo SL 2 also have a Lightmotion midsole for a responsive feel while running. These everyday Adidas women's sneakers are a bargain after this discount. Their hybrid midsole features Adidas' Boost energy return and Bounce cushioning, while the durable rubber outsole is tough enough for all of life's journeys. The Ultraboost Light are one of our favorite pairs of running shoes from Adidas. Our Adidas Ultraboost Light review says these are stylish, fit well and are lighter than the previous Ultraboost 22. They're usually a bit more expensive than other models on the market, but this is an amazing discount you shouldn't miss. The Adidas Run 84 Sneakers come in a nice selection of stylish colors, and now you can grab a pair starting from just $50. Designed for everyday wear, these have a Cloudfoam midsole to keep you super comfortable even on long days. Our Adidas Ultraboost 5 review called these "a standout option for those who want a good-looking shoe for general use as well as running." We loved their stylish design, grippy soles and smooth-feeling, comfortable foam stack. After this discount, how could you say no to this sleek t-shirt? It has a sporty look and is super comfortable thanks to its jersey fabric and roomy, relaxed fit. These Adidas flared leggings will help you show your flair! They're soft and stretchy, with a high-rise waist. These blend in well whether you're out and about or heading to a yoga class. When it's too hot for leggings, opt for these Adidas Techfit Training Shorts. These compression short leggings fit snugly for extra support, while wicking sweat off your body to keep you comfortable and dry. These Adidas shorts look super unique thanks to their reflective finish. There are four color options to choose from, all of which come adorned with Adidas' three-stripes along the side in a contrasting color. And their lightweight, roomy design makes them extremely comfortable. These Adidas Optime leggings have a bold and iconic look. With Adidas' three-stripes running down the side, they look super cool. But they're also soft, supportive and wick sweat off your body to keep you cool and dry. Warm up in style with the essentials track top from Adidas. This jacket takes you straight back to the 90s and we're loving it. It features a relaxed fit, a full zip and a stand-up collar. There are also two pockets across the front to store your stuff (or keep your hands warm.) This Adidas Ultimate365 Twistknit Jacket lets you look your best on the green, or just when you're out and about. It's loose and stretchy enough to move in and has pockets in the front to store your stuff. It's also not too bulky, so you can wear it as is or layer it.
