The 93+ absolute best October Prime Day deals to shop across every major category

I combed through thousands of discounts to find the ones that are actually worth paying attention to.
By Zoe Malin

Prime Big Deal Days is in full swing, which means you have less than 48 hours left to get discounts on your favorite tech items, beauty products and kitchen gadgets. I’ve covered Prime Day, Black Friday and Cyber Monday for five years as a reporter for NBC Select, so I know how to find deals that are actually worth buying. I combed through through thousands of discounted products to find the best October Prime Day deals that are actually worth buying. Each one I recommend below is highly rated, at least 20% off and at its lowest price in at least three months. I’ll continue to update this list throughout the entirety of Prime Big Deal Days, which ends October 9.

Apple AirPods Pro 2

4.6-star average rating from 7,532 reviews on Amazon

These are some of the best wireless earbuds I’ve tested. Their active noise cancellation feature lets me clearly hear audio in noisy environments, and they’re water-resistant, so I never worry about wearing them outdoors or while exercising. The AirPods come with a USB-C charging case and four pairs of silicone tips to customize their fit.

Crest 3D Whitestrips Professional Effects

4.6-star average rating from 89,017 reviews on Amazon

Waterpik Cordless Advanced 2.0 Water Flosser

This ADA-accepted water flosser comes with four interchangeable tips, all of which rotate 360 degrees to reach each part of your mouth. You can choose from three pressure settings, and the reservoir holds enough water for 45-second cleanings. A full battery gives you up to four weeks of use.

Duracell Optimum AA Batteries

4.8-star average rating from 2,690 reviews on Amazon

It never hurts to have extra batteries at home, so you might as well buy them on sale. This pack comes with 28 AA alkaline batteries.

Afina Filtered Shower Head

4.7-star average rating from 150 reviews on Amazon

Lowest price ever

Afina’s filtered showerhead removes impurities like chlorine and heavy metals from water. While testing it (I received a sample from the brand), my hair felt softer and my skin was noticeably less dry, plus it didn’t impact my water pressure at all. Installing the showerhead took me less than five minutes since it comes with a mini wrench and plumber’s tape to help with setup. You have to change the fixture’s filter every three months.

Bagsmart The Space Saver Toiletry Bag

4.8-star average rating from 56,589 reviews on Amazon

Lowest price ever

“I love this toiletry bag because it has multiple compartments, so everything has its own place and I can separate my makeup, shower and hair care items,” says Sadhana Daruvuri, NBC commerce social media editor. “Since the compartments are clear, I can spot what I need immediately. The elastic loops also help me stand products up to prevent spills.” The toiletry bag, which won an NBC Select Travel Award, also folds open and has a built-in hook.

Bissell Little Green Multi-Purpose Portable Carpet and Upholstery Cleaner

4.5-star average rating from 87,142 reviews on Amazon

Bissell’s upholstery cleaner, which won an NBC Select Pet Award, sprays stains with cleaning solution and suctions them off surfaces like carpet, furniture, car interiors and kids’ car seats. It has two 48-ounce tanks that separate its cleaning solution and dirty water. The Little Green machine is also lightweight, making it easy to move around.

Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask

4.6-star average rating from 45,682 reviews on Amazon

“I never go to bed without applying this overnight lap mask,” says NBC Select commerce editor Lindsay Schneider. “Because it’s thick and genuinely hydrating I wake up in the morning and any irritation or dryness I had on my lips the night before is gone. It’s that good.” The mask is made with moisturizing ingredients like coconut and shea butters, as well as vitamin C and other antioxidants. It comes with a mini spatula to help with application.

Casper Original Pillow

4.4-star average rating from 11,388 reviews on Amazon

This NBC Select Bed & Bath Award winner is stuffed with a polyester microfiber fill that’s clump-resistant so if it flattens, you can easily fluff it back up. The pillow, which is available in standard and king sizes, has a removable, machine-washable cotton cover.

Cosrx Snail Mucin 96% Power Repairing Essence

4.6-star average rating from 71,464 reviews on Amazon

Cosrx’s essence is made with snail mucin and hyaluronic acid, ingredients that hydrate and soothe dry skin. It has a lightweight feel and dries quickly so you can layer other skin care products over it. The essence gives skin a dewy glow post-application.

iWalk Portable Charger (USB-C)

4.3-star average rating from 952 reviews on Amazon

Lowest price ever

This pocket-sized portable charger has a built-in USB-C connector that you plug directly into your phone, headphones or tablet. When it runs out of juice, you can repower it with the included cable.

Fullstar Vegetable Chopper 9-in-1

4.5-star average rating from 110,451 reviews on Amazon

Save time prepping ingredients with Fullstar’s Vegetable Chopper, which comes with seven interchangeable blades that dice, slice and spiralize. You use the lid’s lever to push food through the blades, and it falls into the attached catch tray. All parts of this kitchen gadget are dishwasher-safe.

TubShroom Tub Drain Hair Catcher

4.5-star average rating from 9,081 reviews on Amazon

Rosalie Sparaco, NBC senior social media editor, swears by the TubShroom, which collects hair to prevent clogged pipes. “I used to snake squirrel-sized clumps of hair out of my pipes or use a drain cleaner at least once a month, but now I almost never have to because the TubShroom is so effective,” she says. It fits inside drains that are 1.5 to 1.75 inches wide and doesn’t disrupt water flow.

Shark NV352 Navigator Lift Away Upright Vacuum

4.4-star average rating from 106,044 reviews on Amazon

This corded vacuum is key to keeping my three-pet household clean. Its HEPA filter traps allergens like dust and pet dander, and it effectively suctions dirt off carpets and bare floors. The vacuum has a detachable pod you can tote around your home to clean above door frames, stairs and furniture. It also comes with multiple attachments including a crevice tool and upholstery tool.

Liquid I.V. Electrolyte Drink Mix

4.6-star average rating from 102,796 reviews on Amazon

I always keep Liquid I.V. at home to mix into my water before a long run or hot yoga class. This set comes with 16 pre-measured packets, which makes them especially easy to pack in my gym bag or running belt when I’m on the go. Liquid I.V. is made with electrolytes like sodium and potassium, as well as vitamin C and forms of vitamin B that work to support the immune system, according to the brand. (Be sure to consult your doctor before taking any supplements.)

Yeti Rambler 20-oz Tumbler with MagSlider Lid

4.7-star average rating from 282 reviews on Amazon

Lowest price ever

I drink my coffee out of this dishwasher-safe travel mug on the way to work every morning. I’ve dropped it on my kitchen floor, down subway stairs and in New York City streets — after three years of use, it still looks as good as new. It’s made from stainless steel and has double-wall vacuum insulation, which keeps my drinks hot or cold for hours. The tumbler has a leak-resistant lid with a magnetic slider that covers the sippy spout as needed. It also fits in cup holders.

Magna-Tiles Space 32-Piece Magnetic Construction Set

4.8-star average rating from 30 reviews on Amazon

Lowest price ever

“Back in my teaching days, Magna-Tiles were the most fought over toy in the classroom,” says Rebecca Rodriguez, NBC Select editorial projects manager, who previously taught preschool and knows a lot about toys. “You can easily construct and deconstruct the tiles to make different figures, which entertains kids and adults for a while.” This pack, which is a great gift, comes with 32 multicolored magnetic tiles, as well as a shuttle-shaped box to store them inside.

Amazon Echo Pop

4.7-star average rating from 65,151 reviews on Amazon

The Echo Pop is a mini Bluetooth speaker that’s equipped with an Alexa virtual assistant. You can use it to play music, podcasts and audiobooks, as well as ask Alexa to set alarms, tell you the weather or read you the news. Since the speaker is so small, it seamlessly blends in with my home decor.

23andMe Health + Ancestry Service

4.7-star average rating from 36,571 reviews on Amazon

Lowest price ever

This DNA kit comes with all the materials you need to take a saliva sample and mail it to the brand’s lab for testing. Four to five weeks later, you’ll get your results, including information about where your ancestors are from, health conditions you may have a propensity for and how your DNA relates to wellness factors like muscle composition.

Bio-Oil Skincare Oil

4.7-star average rating from 50,945 reviews on Amazon

Bio-Oil is one of our favorite non-greasy face oils, but you can also use it on your body. It’s made with vitamin E to moisturize skin, hydrate cuticles and reduce the appearance of stretch marks and scars, including acne scars. It’s also noncomedogenic so it won’t clog pores and is safe for all skin types.

Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides

4.5-star average rating from 64,045 reviews on Amazon

I’ve been a loyal Vital Proteins customer for years and always replenish my supply on Prime Day. The brand’s unflavored collagen dissolves into liquids, so I don’t notice I’m drinking it — I usually stir it into my morning coffee or blend it into a smoothie. You get 20 grams of collagen per serving, which helps support hair, skin, nail, bone and joint health, according to the brand. (Be sure to consult your doctor before taking any supplements.)

Blink Video Doorbell

4.2-star average rating from 149,569 reviews on Amazon

This doorbell lets you see, hear and speak to visitors through a companion app since it’s built with a camera and two-way speakers. The app displays livestream footage, and you can either connect it to existing doorbell wiring or use it wire-free with AA batteries.

Tangle Teezer Ultimate Detangler Large Brush

4.6-star average rating from 2,889 reviews on Amazon

“This brush helps easily detangle my thick, wavy hair without causing any pain, and reduces my hair breakage,” says NBC Select associate reporter Bianca Alvarez. Its long, flexible teeth remove knots, while its short teeth reduce frizz to give hair a smooth finish. The brush, which you can use on wet or dry hair, also has a slim grippy handle.

Kindle Paperwhite Essentials Bundle

4.8-star average rating from 1,463 reviews on Amazon

Lowest price ever

“As a lifelong book lover, I was hesitant to get on the e-reader train, but I can confidently say that the Kindle Paperwhite is worth it,” says Schneider (Amazon sent her this Kindle to try, but she’s bought other models in the past). “It has such a slim, lightweight profile, so it takes up minimal space in my bag. I’m never on the subway, bus or train without it.” This bundle comes with the Paperwhite, a fabric cover and a power adapter. The Kindle has a glare-free screen that you can adjust the brightness of, and it’s designed with helpful features, like one that tells you how much time you have left in a chapter.

Lume Whole Body Deodorant (3 pack)

4.3-star average rating from 25,237 reviews on Amazon

Lowest price ever

“This whole-body deodorant was a game-changer for me,” says NBC Select associate SEO reporter Ashley Morris. “It’s one of the only ones I’ve tried that truly keeps odor away all day.” Lume’s solid deodorant comes in a stick and is free from aluminum and baking soda. It’s available in an unscented option, or you can buy it in scents like lavender, cucumber and coconut.

Keurig K-Compact Coffee Maker

4.5-star average rating from 8,279 reviews on Amazon

Lowest price ever

Brew six, eight or 10 ounces of coffee in less than a minute with this single-serve machine.
