Cut through the Prime Day noise with 11 products I actually recommend — Shark, Ninja & Blink up to 50% off
These are the only Prime Day deals you need
As a Deals Editor, I'm extremely picky about the things that I buy, especially when it comes to Amazon. (Yes, I've also been burned by too-good-to-be-true deals before). So when I recommend something from the retailer, you can count on it being something I believe is worth buying — and it will always be on sale.
Over the past few months, I've spent a lot of time tracking deals and testing new products, which has given me a strong sense of what's truly worth buying and what isn't. That's why I've decided to curate a list of Prime Day products I've personally tried, loved, and still reach for on a daily basis.
From the Stanley water bottle that I bring with me everywhere to the Shark vacuum that makes my home sparkling clean, here are all the deals that are tried, true and actually worth your money this Prime Day.

I'm Olivia Halevy, a deals editor for Tom's Guide. I'm cutting through the Prime Day noise and handpicking deals that are actually worth your time and money. I've tested every product below and I still use them all on a daily basis, so you can trust that they're that good.

My Favorite Deals
Don't let the size fool you. The Blink Mini 2 works indoors and out, holds up in any weather, and comes with color night vision and person detection that you wouldn't expect at just $12.
Personally, I use the Blink Mini 2 to spy on my dog when I'm not home. I place one in the bedroom and one in the living room, my dog's favorite lounging and people-watching spots, respectively. It's super easy to set up and sync the devices to the Blink app on your phone. It definitely gives me some peace of mind that's he's safe while I'm out and about.

Want Vuori style without the huge price tag? I own this tank and can confirm that it looks and feels just like Vuori. It's extremely soft and breathable and I absolutely love its flattering cropped and racer back design. Plus, you can't beat a $17 price tag.
The brand is called ODODOS and is a fraction of the price when compared to Vuori. I own a few pieces from the brand and I probably will never spend money on actual Vuori again — that's how similar it is.

The Stanley Quencher H20 is the water bottle that sits on my nightstand each night and comes along with me during every car ride. It helps me reach my water intake goals on the daily. Even better? It's now 50% off, bringing the price down to just $22. That's a total steal in my book.
This stylish, roomy tumbler is perfect for everyday adventures. Designed to fit in a car cup holder, you'll be able to take it with you everywhere and it can keep your drinks hot or cold for hours thanks to its double walled insulation. The advanced FlowState lid can move between closed to prevent splashes, straw and an opening to sip from.

If you're in the market for some Lululemon leggings but don't want to pay the hefty price, these HeyNuts leggings are the next best thing. In my opinion, HeyNuts leggings look and feel just like Lululemon leggings — and they're literally a fraction of the price. I've been wearing them for a few years now, and I can attest to the fact that they're super durable and won't pill or rip even after several washes.
They're available in a plethora of colors and you can even choose from a few different lengths depending on your height or where you'd like the leggings to fall. The best part? This version also has pockets on the outside!

I wear sandals all summer long — and my favorite brand just so happens to be one of the most expensive brands: Birkenstocks. But Luckily, I've found a sandal alternative that both my feet and my bank account love.
If you're in the market for some Birkenstocks this summer but don't want to pay the hefty price, these Cushionaire sandals are the next best thing. I've worn them to the beach and pool — that's a given. But I also wore them when I was on vacation in Europe. Despite walking over 15k steps a day, I didn't have one blister on my feet thanks to these bad boys. They also match literally any outfit and come in tons of colors.

Living in a city apartment (with a pet and a husband who forget to take his shoes off when he comes home) means having a good carpet cleaner is a must. I use this little green machine for basically every fabric item that can't go in the washer machine, like rugs, pillows, cushions and more.
This is a great discount for the mini version of the portable stain removing vacuum. It removes spills and messes created by the whole family thanks to its clean water tank that has a 16 oz capacity. Plus, it comes with a 4-inch tough stain tool, HydroRinse self-cleaning hose tool, and trial size cleaning solution.

The FOREO Luna 4 is a 2-in-1 facial cleansing and firming brush has won praise from the likes of Marie Claire, Allure, Cosmo — and myself.
I've been using this device for years and I can't live without it. I definitely see a positive difference in the texture of my skin. Plus, it does a way better job of washing my face and removing my makeup than I ever could. The pulsations are gentle and provide a soothing effect as the device glides across my face, lifting excess dirt and oil.

With extremely limited counter space in my apartment, I had to get picky when it came to small kitchen appliances. Of course, a coffee machine was the main priority, but when I (barely) had room for one more appliance, I chose this Ninja Flip — which can basically replace 8 other cooking appliances.
The versatile machine can air fry, roast, bake, toast, and more. But the best thing about it is the fact that when you're not using it, you can flip it up and away, which will give you 50% more counter space back.

In my opinion, vacuuming is a hassle and a household chore I usually pass on to my husband. But I found the Shark Messmaster that makies the once pesky chore a total breeze. For the hardwoods in my apartment, this all-in-one vac has been a godsend. It can vacuum and mop at the same time to deep clean hard floors and refresh area rugs.
It's powerful enough to quickly suck up dirt, debris, wet messes and stains to cover all your needs. It's also cordless, easy to charge and has a self-propelling mechanism so you don't have to actually push a heavy machine.

I've been using this Shark hair tool for a few weeks now, and I can honestly say my hair has never looked better. What used to take me an hour of blow-drying and styling now takes just 20 minutes — even with my sometimes stubborn hair. It may seem like a small change, but it’s made a huge difference in my daily routine.
The Shark FlexStyle replicates salon-quality results at home. Designed for all hair types, it includes multiple attachments that handle everything from blowouts and waves, to straightening and more. Plus, a 43% discount is just the icing on the cake.

If you're in the market for a new set of pots and pans, look no further than this set from All-Clad. I've been using this nonstick cookware for about a year now, and they do not disappoint. From searing a pork tenderloin and simmering pasta sauces to frying an egg that slid seamlessly off the pan, I'm a huge advocate for this set that doesn't stick and delivers heat evenly.
The 13-piece set comes with everything you need to cook up a delicious meal, including 8, 10 and 12- inch fry pans, 2 and 3 quart covered sauce pans, a 4 quart covered sauté pan, a 4 quart covered soup pot and and an 8 quart covered stockpot.
