No space for a tricked-out home gym? No problem with these smart space-savers. (Amazon)(Amazon)
Bowflex is known for its quality cardio equipment, but we don't all have the room for a giant treadmill or elliptical. That doesn't mean you can't get in a good workout at home, though — the brand's space-saving weights went on sale for Black Friday, and somehow, they're still discounted. Bowflex SelectTech 552 Adjustable Dumbbells are $170 off, and the Bowflex SelectTech 840 Kettlebell is $50 off. Now is a great time to nab these, especially if you have any fitness resolutions for the new year.
Thousands of Amazon shoppers love these sturdy containers, which have airtight seals to keep food fresh. The containers are 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, it's oven-safe up to 1,040°F. You can also store these containers in the freezer if you have leftovers you know you won't get to right away. At just over $3 per container, this is a fabulous value.
We're smack dab in the middle of a transitional clothing season, and whether you're stowing away shorts and sundresses in the winter or puffer coats and comforters in the summer, these roomy storage bags will keep everything organized from season to season. Each one has an impressive 60-liter capacity, along with see-through front panels so you won't forget what you stashed in them. At over 60% off, it's a great time to buy.

Whether you're due for some new headrests yourself or want to spiffy up your guest room before the holidays, you'd be wise to snag this popular pair while it's 75% off.

Hate vacuuming? Get a robot to do it for you! You can use this high-end Roomba to clean your whole house or select rooms. It can go just about anywhere — use it on carpet, tile or hardwood — and it's smart enough to avoid sucking up rogue socks, shoes, computer cords, etc.
"I have two German Shepherds, which equals a lot of fur, therefore we have four Roombas. Yes, four," said one loyal shopper. "This one does seem to get stuck under furniture more than the other two. However, it gets over things better, runs quieter and vacuums both the carpet and hardwood just as well if not better. So, I bought a second one. I highly recommend it. I have all four scheduled to run every day, they work well with Alexa and I truly have no complaints. If I needed a fifth roomba I would 100% buy a third of this model."
This chopper has a high-efficiency motor that handles even thick branches with ease, all while weighing under 3 pounds.
The fact that this No. 1 bestseller acts as both a blender and food processor is enough to catch our attention — but knowing it's currently down to its best price of the year? That puts it over the top.
With a 72-ounce blending pitcher and 8-cup food processor bowl, you'll be able to whip up frozen margaritas and salsa for a crowd. The 1500-watt motor also makes pulverizing everything from ice to frozen fruit a piece of cake.
This small-but-mighty sucker, a viral fave for a while now, doesn't usually dip this low outside of Prime Day or Black Friday — so seize the moment! It targets unsightly spots, minimizes odors and more on both carpets and upholstery in a perfectly portable way. At under 10 pounds, it's on the lighter side for a deep cleaner, and it's versatile enough to use on furniture — even car interiors. Plus, the 15-foot cord is long enough to keep you from having to find a new outlet every five minutes.
This set comes with the Little Green, a 3-inch tough stain tool, a HydroRinse self-cleaning hose tool, a spraying crevice tool, a trial size 8-ounce Spot and Stain with Febreze formula and a one-year limited warranty.

Winter is in full swing, and that means a lot of nasty salt and dirt getting tracked into your car, your home and basically anywhere else you go. This battery-operated vac is strong enough for the task, and it's 45% off at Amazon right now. The long hose and nozzle attachments make it easy to get under car seats, into corners of your garage and more hard-to-reach spots. Just note that the battery is not included!
"Great suction and performance," said one user. "Simple to use, filters can be easily cleaned, and the attachments are all you need. Suction is better than expected. The only problem I have is that my wife used it once and now I can't get it back into my shop."
Our veins are like 50% coffee at this point in the year, so we’re big fans of the single-serve coffee maker. The best Keurig machine, according to home editor Jessica Dodell-Feder, is the K-Café Barista Bar, on sale for 30% off. That's only a few bucks over its lowest price of the year. Dodell-Feder loves this coffee maker for its ease of use, its "over ice" option, and its included milk frother.
Got a gym lover in your life? This kettlebell could make a great gift.
The fact that this versatile appliance (which functions as both a vacuum and mop) is down to its all-time best price is enough for it to warrant a space in our carts. But throw in a Martha Stewart endorsement, and we're tempted to buy two!
The queen of all things home recently sang its praises in an unsponsored Instagram post, calling it the "best new home appliance." She added, "The design is simple, the parts easy to clean and anyone can use it ... Rather than sweeping (which raises dust), rather than vacuuming and then mopping, this machine does it all!"
When in doubt, going the practical gift route is always smart. This deal brings the kit down to within two dollars of its lowest price all year.
Garrity says, "This is one of those things you’ll be happy to have — especially the next time you drop your keys between the seats or a tiny screw behind an appliance. Switch on the light to track the item down, then extend it until you can reach whatever you're trying to grab."
Don't need the pair? You can also grab a single weight on sale for $189.
According to our records, this is the lowest these have gone all year. Still think they're a little pricey? Consider this: You're getting the equivalent of six kettlebells and 15 sets of dumbbells. That not only saves you room, but some serious cash. If you decide to forgo the gym membership to work out at home, well, that saves you even more money.
Let's start with the dumbbells. They adjust to meet the needs of everyone in your home (and keep pace as you build up your strength). They can be as light as 5 pounds and as heavy as 52.5 pounds; you can fine-tune them in 2.5-pound increments for the first 25 pounds and 5-pound increments after that. As for the kettlebell, it's like having six kettlebells in one. When it's sitting in its base, just turn the dial to one of six desired weights from 8 pounds to 40 pounds.
Both the dumbbells and kettlebell include two months of free access to trainer-led exercises — swings, rows, squats, twists — for a full-body workout, plus tips on improving your form, via the Bowflex JRNY app. Bowflex includes a two-year warranty on the weight plates and parts.
Amazon shoppers are working up a sweat: The dumbbells have 19,000 five-star reviews, while the kettlebell has over 6,000.
One loyal user of the dumbbells wrote: "I bought a set of Bowflex dumbbells in 2012 and I'm still using them. They have never jammed or otherwise malfunctioned. They adjust smoothly and easily... They are expensive, but I consider them a good investment because of their quality. My son was impressed with my set and bought a set for his apartment."
"I've used tons of equipment over the years — adjustable dumbbells of all sorts. These, to date, are the best I've used. They are also hands down the most expensive, but you get what you pay for," shared another shopper. "The plastic stands in the photo do come with the dumbbells, and make a nice place to set them since they hold the weights you aren't using at the time. If you select, say, 35 pounds, the remaining weights from the dumbbell sit nicely in the base as you perform your exercise—then it all clicks right back into place when you set it down. Super handy, not clumsy, and easy to use."
As for the kettlebell, one shopper said, "If you want different weights in your kettlebells and want to save some space this works really well. I’ve had this for four years and it still works well. It's built to last and be used."
"I was very nervous about spending so much money on one kettlebell because I didn't know how well it would work or hold up. I am so happy I took the plunge and splurged!" shared another. "I love being able to easily switch weights and go from one exercise to another, and I don't need to have multiple kettlebells. I would definitely recommend getting this for your home gym!"
Some people said the dumbbells are big, no matter how much weight you have on them, so it takes a little time to adjust them. Others said they wish the kettlebell offered a bigger weight range.
One four-star dumbbell reviewer said: "Because they're adjustable, they're really wide, so doing certain exercises, they don't allow you to put your hands very close together and it makes a weird angle. You also obviously can't really grip the ends because it will mess with the adjustable dial at the end, so you just have to make sure your workout only includes movements that require holding onto the actual grip."
"The only drawback is their length, although I quickly adjusted to that and can safely do skull crushers with them," added another reviewer.
"Adjusting the weight is simple and seamless. It's perfect for quick, effective workouts throughout the week," wrote a kettlebell user. "I do wish the product had a higher max-out weight of 50 pounds at least, but 40 will suffice."
