Can you say "eye candy?" This ice maker might be the most aesthetically pleasing appliance ever. (GE)(Amazon)
Stacking trays of water in your freezer to make ice is so unnecessary these days. Instead, we've got a better answer to keep your drinks cool. This GE Profile Opal 2.0 ice maker is a much more convenient way to chill your beverages and doesn't require reorganizing your freezer. Plus, it's $150 off right now for Amazon's Cyber Monday sale.
This nifty high-tech contraption has also made its rounds on social media, with multiple TikTokers declaring their love of this ice maker. And there's a good reason why: It produces irresistibly chewy nugget-style ice ("fancy ice," as one reviewer called it). Needless to say, it's a hot-ticket item, which is why we're excited to see it marked down.

Thousands of Amazon shoppers love these sturdy containers, which have airtight seals to keep food fresh. They're made of glass — but not just any glass. We're talking about borosilicate glass, which is used on thermal tiles in space shuttles.
Not only does it conveniently allow you to see what's packed inside, but it's oven-safe up to 1,040°F and can go in the microwave without a lid. You can also store these containers in the freezer if you have leftovers you know you won't get to right away.Got leftovers? Ditch the plastic for these super-strong glass containers.
Yard in need of some heavy-duty pruning? This small but mighty chainsaw is powerful enough to take down tree branches, yet weighs under 2.5 pounds. Plus, this top-seller is cordless for even more convenience.
One Yahoo editor gave it a try, writing, "While testing the Saker, I first noticed that it was very easy to hold in one hand. I also appreciated the safety features, including a safety lock that must be pressed before the saw activates. This gave me some comfort that it wouldn't just 'go off' if I squeezed it too tight while walking between locations. It's also easier to use than something like pruning shears, which can be heavy and unwieldy and take much longer to get the same job done."

An air fryer is just the ticket when you want a hot meal without turning on the oven. This top-rated model heats up quickly and holds up to 2.5 pounds of fries or 14 wings at a time. Plus, it can be used to dehydrate food, proof bread and even bake desserts. This price is one of the best we've seen it marked down to.

This versatile skillet ain't no flash in the pan — it's been a staple in one Yahoo Life editor's kitchen for years. Among its many perks are its lightweight, 2-pound design, as well as the removable silicone grip on its handle, which will protect your hands while you cook.
It's also dishwasher-safe, but our editor says, "Cleanup is a breeze and only requires a few swipes with a soapy sponge, even around the rivets that secure the handle." It's currently within $2 of the lowest price we've seen all year.

Been in a bit of a slump (literally)? Having a supportive yet comfortable work chair can help improve your posture while relieving pressure. This one has a curved shape that's meant to conform to your back, while the base of the seat offers lumbar support to help take some pressure off. Hey, your job might cause a lot of stress, but your bum's resting place shouldn't!
Mesh backing allows for increased airflow and breathability for added comfort, and you'll be able to recline and rock back at a customized angle that feels good to you. Prefer to sit cross-legged? Just flip up the armrests so they're not in the way.
Easy access to these irresstible nuggets for $200 off? That's like striking gold.
This solution targets mineral and calcium buildup to de-scale the machine inside and out. This will help it run smoothly and produce better-tasting ice, and it even comes with its own scrubber.
"Every so many months you have to use this solution to clean your ice maker," explained a reviewer. "No way around it. However, the end result is when the ice tastes like when you first got the ice maker."
You're saving $150 with this Cyber Monday sale, which brings this sought-after appliance down to one of its best prices of all time (it was also this price during the October Prime Day sale). If your household goes through a lot of ice, this will save you a ton of time and headaches, which is pretty priceless!
Those of us without ice-making refrigerators usually have to rely on those flimsy trays that never seem to want to release the cubes and take a long time to freeze. A countertop ice maker, on the other hand, provides ice on demand, and the GE Opal is super speedy.
How speedy? Well, it can crank out 1.6 pounds per hour, or 38 pounds per day, according to the manufacturer. Plus, it can hold up to 3 pounds of ice at a time. That's a lot of really iced tea!
As mentioned, the ice itself is of the nugget variety, which many of us enjoy crunching on at restaurants but rarely have access to at home. To get your freeze on, you'll just fill the attached reservoir with water (it's quite large, so you won't have to refill very often). From there, just hit the power button and you're in business. Oh, and any melted water gets delivered back to the reservoir to help keep the ice from forming large clumps.
As I said, this machine is pretty high-tech, but not in an intimidating way. Reviewers say the SmartHQ app, which can be used to schedule ice production, is user-friendly, and you can even pair it with Alexa and Google if you want to operate it via voice control.
This ice device has melted many an Amazon customer's heart.
"Absolutely love this little machine!" exclaimed one shopper. "Big fan of chewy ice, and after only enjoying it from the few restaurants and convenience stores that sell drinks with it, I finally have delicious chewy ice at home. Easy setup, and [I] quickly have enough ice to satisfy my family."
"I am really enjoying this ice maker," shared another. "I live alone, had a full refrigerator with no freezer inside my house and had to go to the garage to get ice. This little icemaker is a workhorse, and the ice is wonderful. It stays frozen, you can chew it, it’s like restaurant ice. It makes a ton. I was scared of the cleaning, but it didn't have any trouble whatsoever; [it] was quick and easy."
"The smart app is amazing," raved a third. "I travel, and like the fact that I’m able to create a schedule and turn the ice maker on/off through the app. It was very easy to set up and it’s also easy to maintain."
One common complaint? The noise. "I love this device for the ice," shared one user. "But it's the loudest machine I have owned. I find myself from time to time just powering it off so I don't have to hear it for a bit. Great ice, though!"
"It is a tad noisy," agreed a final fan, "but well worth the return." They added, "This is one of my greatest purchases. Makes every beverage with ice better. ... Fancy ice rules!"
