Best Amazon deals this week: I spent hours combing through sales and found savings of up to 80%
Every so often, current events pierce our happy little category-assessing, roundup-compiling, bargain-hunting bubble here at Yahoo. This is one of those times, as we (and, well, everyone) are concerned about the effects of the tariffs being levied on goods produced beyond our shores — i.e., angsty that consumers may be looking at some serious price hikes down the road. However, even if that were to happen, we're not there yet; we're in a kind of grace period, which means it's an especially good time to snap up the best Amazon deals on offer this week. Top Amazon deals Apple AirPods 4 for $100 (was $129): All-time low Fiskars Bypass Pruning Shears for $10 (was $21): Over 50% off iRobot Roomba Robot Vacuum & Mop for $100 (was $275): Nearly 65% off New Apple iPad, 11-inch for $299 (was $349): All-time low Cozsinoor Bed Pillows, Queen, 2-Pack for $25 (was $120): Nearly 80% off Amazon Fire TV Stick HD for $18 (was $35): All-time low One thing that's definitely coming our way is backyard movie nights — making this a great time to snag this iPhone mini projector, which is marked down by more than 60%. What you're not going to want in the coming months? A smoky, overheated kitchen. Time to grab this cool indoor grill from Ninja — and save $110. Speaking of overheating, some breathable, 100% organic-cotton sheets will help keep those night sweats at bay, and a queen-size set is down to just $28 (over 50% off). PS: Another "tariffic" strategy to keep in mind going forward? Buy U.S.-made products!

'My new best friend': Zap up this iRobot Roomba vac/mop for a rare $100 (65% off)
What's a combo you consider a match made in heaven? Peanut butter and jelly? Bert and Ernie? For home appliance shoppers like us, it's "robot vacuum and mop." Sure, a robot vacuum in and of itself is super handy when it comes to effortless floor cleaning — but add not having to schlep a bucket of water around the house into the mix? Sign us up! Especially when one of these coveted cleaners is on mega-sale, as is currently the case with the iRobot Roomba Robot Vacuum & Mop. This rare, limited-time Amazon markdown will save you nearly 65% — talk about cleaning up! Upon consulting our price trackers, we discovered that this model has only dipped lower than this once, ever. On top of that, many robovacs without mopping features cost as much, if not more than this 2-in-1, which makes the markdown even more impressive. If you prefer straightforward appliances without a lot of tricky features to navigate, this Roomba has your name on it. It doesn't have loads of fancy bells and whistles, like detailed home mapping, but it's certainly equipped with all the essentials for keeping your floors in great shape. For starters, its four-stage cleaning system can vacuum and mop at the same time, rather than performing one task and then the other. Plus, it moves about your home in neat rows to help ensure no space is left behind. One of its most impressive assets is that it can run for up to two hours before scooting on back to its dock to recharge. And if you're inclined to use the iRobot Home App, you can schedule cleanings from afar, or even view a report of which areas it targeted. As for the mop, you can choose from three suction and water levels depending on the intensity required for the job. There's also a spot-cleaning function, so if there's a particular area that needs a little more love, the Roomba can dedicate up to two minutes to tackling that stubborn mess. Still on the fence? Here's what Amazon customers think of this multitasking machine. "I wish I had gotten this years before," wrote one satisfied user. "I had an old off-brand one that was noisy and hard to empty ... Took two whole seconds to set [this] up and have it working. I can control it from my phone and even have it set to vacuum if it detects my phone leaving the house. I have two dogs and a cat, so I mainly wanted it for shedding hair. I send it around the house once or twice a day, and it has really cut down on the hair on the floor. Easy to empty too." "My new best friend. I have never loved a product more," raved another pet parent. "I have three cats and one dog. Carpets, too. I used to think I was cleaning my floors properly until I started using the Roomba. Omg. All the cat hair I never knew [about]." "[I] use the Robot Roomba for vacuuming the carpets throughout a 1,500-square-foot apartment," shared a third fan. "It does a thorough job as it goes from room to room. It's a time-saver, which prevents me from having to do the work." "I set this thing off in one room to see how it would do," wrote a generally pleased buyer. "It did an excellent job of covering the entire surface and shut down once it had mopped the whole room. ... It cleaned for about two hours before needing to be recharged. It did about half of my house. When I rinsed the pad ... it was filthy! So, yeah, it actually mops. When I went to empty the dustbin, it was full! So yes, it vacuums too." That said, they noted, "It was a bit awkward to empty the bin compared to my old Roomba, but they give you a brush to help. And I rinsed out the water tank and dried everything off, so there was a bit of effort in unit maintenance when it was done." "Less tech is definitely better," said a final shopper. "It doesn't have a map, I can't program which rooms to go in. I think that is definitely an advantage, to be honest. My other Roomba has a lot of issues due to the app or maps or lighting. This one just bumps around and does a great job cleaning. A lot less frustration in general to use. My only issue is the voice is extremely loud and could definitely be toned down a bit." And for de-dusting higher surfaces... If you have Amazon Prime, you'll get free shipping, of course. Not yet a member? No problem. You can sign up for your free 30-day trial here. (And by the way, those without Prime still get free shipping on orders of $35 or more.) The reviews quoted above reflect the most recent versions at the time of publication.
