If your countertop appliances are starting to feel a little underwhelming, or worse, can't keep up with your family's appetite, it might be time to invest in something with more capacity. And right now, there's a solid deal on one of the best big-batch air fryers out there. So if you're tired of slaving away over a hot stove all the time, you can capitalize on a deal that you won't want to miss. Dinner will be on you, but it might just be the easiest thing you'll do all day. See at Best Buy Right now, head on over to Best Buy to get the Bella Pro SmartCrisp 8-qt Touchscreen Air Fryer for $70, down from its original price of $130. That's $60 off and a discount of 42%. Delicious cooking, simple and easy Whether you're cooking for a big family or just like having leftovers, this fryer's 8-quart capacity makes it easy to prep large meals in a single go. That means less waiting around, fewer batches, and more time actually enjoying your food. It's big enough to handle everything from a full chicken to several pounds of fries or veggies, all without heating up your whole kitchen. And no matter what you're cooking, this model makes it super easy. It has a touchscreen that's very clear and straightforward, but it also offers a sleek touchscreen interface and six preset functions, including air fry, roast, broil, bake, reheat, and dehydrate. So you can quickly toggle between cooking modes depending on what you're in the mood for. You can make crispy apple chips one day, buffalo wings the next, or even a whole chicken. It really just depends on what you want to eat. You're not limited at all. There's also a built-in reminder to tell you when cooking is done and if you need to shake or flip it. Halfway through your cook cycle, it'll alert you to toss or flip your food, helping everything crisp up evenly. And cleanup is a breeze, thanks to a nonstick basket with a ceramic coating that's free from harsh chemicals like PTFE and PFOA. If you've been considering upgrading your air fryer setup, or jumping in for the first time, this is a deal worth grabbing before it's gone. Big capacity, reliable cooking, and a steep discount (-42%)? That's a winning combo when you're in the market for a new air fryer. And for just $70, you can just spend a little more on all the good you need for your gourmet creations. See at Best Buy

Lego's First ‘How to Train Your Dragon' Set Is an Adorable Little Toothless
With the live-action How to Train Your Dragon on the way, Lego is finally heading to Berk for a new officially-licensed set. The thing that makes sense? It is, of course, your very own buildable Toothless. The thing that doesn't? It's a chibi-fied, almost animated spin on the dragon, despite being inspired by the realistic-rendering of Toothless in the new remake. This morning Lego announced its first ever How to Train Your Dragon set in the form of the Lego Icons Toothless. Clocking in at 784 pieces, the diminutive dragon is rendered in a chibi-fied style, a mostly static (save for the ability to tilt and rotate his oversized head, open his jaw, and flap his wings) rendering of Toothless in suitably cutesy form. He also comes with accessories you can add, like a fish to feed him and a small effects piece to replicate him breathing a little poof of plasma. Nothing too dangerous. Lego Icons How to Train Your Dragon Toothless But the cutesy aesthetic (especially for a set that, as part of the Icons line, is aimed more at adult collectors) is an intriguing choice for a set that is specifically inspired by the upcoming live-action remake of the film. It is meant to represent Toothless in his adult form, judging by the fact that he has his prosthetic tail fin, and of course the box includes imagery of the more-realistically-rendered version of the CG dragon from the new film, rather than his prior animated form. It's an stylized take on a realistic take of a stylized take! All that, however, doesn't stop him from being down right adorable though. The Lego Icons Toothless is available to pre-order now for $70, and will release on July 1.

Walmart Deals of the Day: Grab an $80 Fitbit Inspire 3 for Your Summer Workouts
A new week means a fresh batch of deals for you to shop at Walmart. There are thousands of discounts available on everything from top tech to workout equipment, home goods, kitchen appliances and much more. The sheer volume of deals can definitely be a little overwhelming, so CNET is here to help you find the true bargains. Our deals team has picked out just a few standouts from the bunch and rounded them up below. For today, June 2, those include $20 off a sleek Fitbit fitness tracker, a top-rated Sonos soundbar that's $80 off and a space-saving FitRx adjustable dumbbell that you can grab for less than $100. We named the Fitbit Inspire 3 one of the best fitness trackers of 2025, thanks to its impressive 10-day battery life, and it's an excellent option for those who only need the basics. It features a slim and subtle design, and while it lacks a built-in GPS and tap-to-pay function, it still has all the essential fitness features. That includes 20 exercise modes, blood-oxygen saturation, sleep tracking, stress management and more. It's also water resistant up to 50 meters and supports on-wrist notifications for calls and texts. All three colors are currently on sale at Walmart. The Sonos Ray is one of our favorite soundbars of 2025 and grabbing one can be an easy way to upgrade your entertainment setup on a budget, especially now that you can pick one up for $80 off. It's a simple two-channel model, but our reviewer was still "impressed with the sound quality for music and movies." It lacks an HDMI port, which is certainly a drawback, but does support Apple AirPlay 2 and Spotify Connect for wireless streaming. Plus, you can sync it with other Sonos speakers for a full surround-sound setup. If you're building a home gym, these FitRx adjustable dumbbells are an excellent way to help save space. With 15 different weight settings ranging from 5 to 52.5 pounds, they're great for tons of different workouts, and can replace up to 15 individual dumbbells. It's easy to adjust the weight by turning the dial, and they come with a durable storage base so they won't roll away. Save $37 on a single dumbbell, or grab a pair for around 50% off right now.
