Amazon sells a vast array of products, with new ones arriving daily across many categories, including home essentials, tech gear and furniture. As much as the retail giant loves adding new products, Amazon also loves cutting prices. But you don't have to wait for its Prime Day event to find great deals. Deciding what offers are worth grabbing (and which aren't) is a full-time job, our job, specifically. That's why we scope out the top deals for you.
Today, we spotted a bundle offer for your kids, a Kids Fire Tab 8 and a matching backpack for just $70. For you, we found the L'Or Barista espresso machine for $100 off and the Shark AI robot vacuum with a grand 50% discount.
If you're thinking about getting a tablet for your kids, the Amazon Fire Tab 8 is our favorite option. The Amazon Fire HD 8 Kids Edition includes parental controls, a bumper case made of rubber to protect the device, a two-year replacement warranty, because we know how kids are, and a six-months subscription to Amazon Kids Plus. This tab has a higher-resolution screen, faster performance and more storage compared to the previous gen.
It usually runs for $140, but right now you can get the Amazon Fire HD 8 Kids tablet and a matching backpack to go along with it for just $70. That's an insane savings of 50% on just the tablet alone. But since Amazon is throwing in the backpack too, it bumps the savings up to $95, an unbeatable bargain.
There's no better way to start your morning than with a fresh cup of coffee, or espresso if you're feeling fancy. And with the L'Or Barista System coffee and espresso machine combo by Philips, you don't have to spend money every morning at the cafe to get your caffeine fix. The L'Or Barista is a single-serve machine that uses high-pressure brewing to make both coffee and espresso.
The system can brew six different sizes of hot or iced coffee and espresso. The machine heats up in just 25 seconds, so you're not waiting super long. Similar to Nespresso, L'Or has their own capsules that come in tons of different flavors, you're sure to find something you love -- just keep in mind that capsules are sold separately. The machine is normally $189, not too bad for a fancy espresso machine. But this 53% discount just dropped the price down to a record low of $89.
If you're anything like me, you love to have people over to the house, especially in the summer. Although it's lots of fun, your floors face the consequences. Vacuuming all the time can become tiresome, unless you opt for a robot vacuum. A great option is the Shark AI Ultra robot vacuum. It has voice command, a 60-day capacity, object detection, lidar precision home mapping and even 360-degree sensors so it doesn't knock into items in your home.
The HEPA filtration feature helps capture and trap 99.97% of dust and allergens, which helps keep your air clean, too. It works on both carpets or hard floors. A feature that I love is the "Matrix Clean Navigation," which enables the robot vacuum to make multiple passes in a grid to ensure the cleanest floors possible. You can even schedule cleanings from the app. It normally runs for an eye-opening $599 but you can grab it for half off now, bringing it down to a record low of $298.
With so many deals on Amazon, deciding which ones are worth your money can be difficult. But CNET's combed through what the world's largest online retailer has to offer and gathered the best deals for you to peruse.
