Highlights of Amazon Prime Days Deals – Our Fav Products!

There are hundreds of thousands of deals happening for Prime Day, but we wanted to share a few highlights of some of our favorite products with you! Head on over to Amazon to find all the many deals happening over the next 4 days!

Household

Breville Barista Pro Espresso Machine, Black Truffle – $599.95 (reg $849.95) Sia owns a very similiar Breville Espresso machine (hers is pictured below) and she has had this machine for years & absolutely loves it! While this is a splurge purchase, she shares it’s totally worth it as she saves so much money by not buying as many coffee drinks while out & about. She said the Breville espresso machines make such high quality drinks with real espresso & they create very creamy milk with the frother. Plus, it’s fun to make latte art with the frother since the milk is so creamy.

Sia also loves her Breville espresso maker for entertaining – she grabs to-go cups to keep on hand along with a variety of syrups & sauces & can give her guests special drinks when they visit. Or bring a friend or neighbor a coffee to make their day. Definitely a long-term purchase that will save a lot of money in the long run!

(our older Instant Pot – it’s well-loved & well-used!)

Instant Pot Duo Plus 9-in-1 Multicooker, Pressure Cooker, Slow Cook, Rice Maker, Steamer, Sauté, Yogurt, Warmer & Sterilizer (6 Quarts) – $69.99 (Reg $139.99) – 50% off! This is the lowest price it’s been in over a year! Sia & I both use our Instant Pot regularly & it’s a lifesaver in the kitchen! I use this more than the crockpot as I love that I can cook meat so quickly, which is the main way I use it!

This Instant Pot is the family-size version (6 qts) and it has 9 cooking functions – pressure cooking, slow cook, saute, sous vide, steam, sterilize, keep warm, make rice & make yogurt. There are 15 one-touch customizable, smart options – from soups to cakes! This Instant Pot really does it all & such an impressive price.

Vitamix Options

We found multiple Vitamix products on a big discount for Prime days! I have owned a Vitamix for at least 7-8 years & it is such a workhorse. It is seriously the best blender we have ever owned & you are paying for high quality & durability – something that will last for years & years. Any of these options would be great additions to your kitchen.

Here are the Vitamix products with discounts for Prime Days:

Vitamix 5-Speed Immersion Blender Bundle, 625-Watt Motor, includes Whisk Attachment & Storage Case – $129.95 (Reg $199) – this is a 35% discount!

Vitamix Propel Series 510 Professional Grade Blender, 3 Presets: Smoothie, Frozen Dessert and Hot Soup, 48oz Pitcher – $299.95 (reg $499.95) -40% off

Vitamix 5200 Professional Grade Blender for Smoothies, Food Grinder and Emulsifier, 64oz Pitcher – $349.95 (reg $499.95)

CAROTE 15pcs Pots and Pans Set, Nonstick Cookware Set with Detachable Handle – $56.99 (reg $119.99) 53% off! This is the lowest price it’s been all year! I have friends who love this set for several reasons – easy storage & stacking as you can stack them together since the handles detach. You can also use it as a cookware & dinnerware set once you take the handles off the pan set. You can transfer from the stove to the oven to the grill to the fridge & to the table with the flexibility of this cookware.

(this vacuum is very used – I’ve had it almost 10 years so it’s not pretty cosmetically, but still works like a dream!)

Dyson Ball Animal Total Clean Upright Vacuum, Iron/Blue – $329.99 (reg $599) – 45% off! This is a huge drop on the popular Dyson Ball Animal vacuum. We own a Dyson Ball Animal vacuum (we’ve owned it for years) & it is such a durable vacuum. I love the Ball technology which makes it very easy to manuever around your house & get into the corners more easily than a typical vacuum style. It’s very easy to use.

Electronics

Roku Streaming Stick Plus 2025 – 4K & HDR Roku Streaming Device for TV with Voice Remote – $29.99 (Reg $39.99) – We have a similar Roku 4K streaming stick & we finally made the switch from having an Amazon Fire Stick to the Roku stick for more flexibility. The Roku just provides more of a wide selection of streaming options as compared to the Amazon platform, which is what we prefer for ease of use & finding what we need. We also found we needed to upgrade our Fire stick more frequently, but so far we have had the Roku for several years with no need to upgrade.

Health / Beauty

Waterpik Cordless Advanced 2.0 Water Flosser for Teeth, Gums, Braces (with Travel Bag & 4 tips) – $59.99 (Reg $99). This is a big discount on the Waterpik Water Flosser. This is a must-buy if you want to keep your teeth & gums in the best shape. This was recommended by my dentist & we all have one of these as they work so well.

I love that it’s portable, rechargeable & cordless – the cordless option is the best as you could even use this in the shower since water flossers can be messy & it could be a great part of your morning routine in the shower. Plus, it’s easy to bring with you traveling as well.

Olaplex Wash & Shine Hair Kit – No. 4, 5 & 7 Shampoo & Conditioner– $44.80 (Reg $64). Sia’s girls love Olaplex products and find they are great for strengthening & conditioning their hair. They use quite a few Olaplex products & find they are all high quality.

Laneige Lip Glowy Balm – $13.30 – 15.20 (reg $19) – My girls love this lip balm from Laneige which is a lightweight lip balm that has shea & seed butters for on-the-go moisture & hydration for your lips. It’s a pretty but subtle glossy finish too & some delicious flavors for the lip balm.

Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask– $16.80 (Reg $24) This is my personal favorite Laneige product as I use this regularly when I go to bed. It’s a sleeping mask to leave on overnight which will work to soften dry, flaky lips. It uses antioxidants & intense moisture to provide long lasting moisture overnight.

Cleaning

Dawn Platinum Powerwash Dish Spray (Fresh Scent Bundle) 1 Spray + 3 refills (pack of 4) – $12.23 (Reg $16.88) – This is the super popular cleaning spray made popular by TikTok that gets rave reviews for cleaning. Sia is a huge fan of how it breaks down grease & grime on dishes as well as being able to use it to clean other areas.
