It's rare to find a meat thermometer this accurate, versatile and affordable. Well done! (Amazon)(Amazon)
Summertime is grilling time! If your meat-mastering skills could use a little refining, there's a surefire way to ensure your grub turns out finger-lickin' good and, most importantly, is safe to eat: taking its temperature. Doing this can help you achieve your desired texture every time, from ribs that fall off the bone to cake with the most tender of crumbs — forget about over- or undercooking food. Thousands of Amazon shoppers have adopted this practice thanks to the Kizen Digital Meat Thermometer, which happens to be on sale for $12 (just in time for Father's Day, hint-hint). Now you won't have to slice into your meat to see if it's done, letting out all the juicy goodness.
This 2.4-pounder is light enough that you'll be able to use it on furniture, countertops and stairs without breaking a sweat — but what it lacks in heft, it makes up for in power and runtime (as in, it'll work for up to 90% longer per charge than the brand's leading hand vacuum).
This is as low as it's been in months, so if you're on the fence, consider hopping off and adding it to your cart while it's still spring cleaning season.
This 14-piece cookware set just about has it all: 8- and 11-inch frying pans, a 4.3-quart casserole with lid, 1.8- and 4.5-quart saucepans with lids, four pan protectors, a spatula and a mixing spoon. That's all for $70 — less than you'd pay for a single pan from many brands.
This discount brings the price down to within a few dollars of its all-time low, and for peace of mind, the white granite surface is PFOA-free.
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.

Want to start your evenings on the right foot, er, head? You'd be wise to snag this popular pair while it's 75% off. Filled with a lofty down alternative stuffing, these plush pillows are moisture-wicking and promote airflow for a more comfortable slumber. They're also machine-washable!
If you struggle with low water pressure, this high-flow showerhead is designed to make it feel like you're rinsing off in a rainforest. There are five modes: rain, massage, mist, rain and massage, and rain and mist. The 4.1-inch head provides a broad coverage area and gives you the sensation of standing under a tropical waterfall without having to hop on a plane.
At just $16, this top-seller is an easy way to get a fancy upgrade minus the financial headache (and the sledgehammer).
There's a reason this cooling sheet set is a No. 1 bestseller — several reasons, in fact. For starters, it's made of brushed microfiber that feels much softer than its affordable price tag would suggest, and the moisture-wicking material will help you stay dry while you snooze. Add to that the fact that these sheets are pill-, wrinkle- and fade-resistant? No wonder sleepers are comparing them to high-end bedding brands like Brooklinen.

Want to impress your friends? Serve 'em pro-level homemade pies at your next outdoor hang. This tabletop cooker is, admittedly, an investment — even on sale — but it scored the top place in our roundup of the best pizza ovens. Plus, this is the lowest price I've ever seen it marked down to.
Home & Garden Writer Kristin Granero, who ranked the pizza ovens, calls it "a futuristic-looking pizza oven pod," adding, "We tested the Roccbox and can attest to its convenience (it came fully assembled, was quick to start and fired up in about 15 minutes) and versatility (for a smaller oven, it still has enough room to cook a 12-inch pizza, as well as other food items, though we’d advise using a pan for messier sauces and meats). The retractable legs are convenient and safe for propping the oven on a table or taking it on the go."
You know how that counter space surrounding your sink always seems to be wet? This unassuming organizer — which was purchased more than 10,000 times in the past month alone — is about to change that.
It has three compartments for holding sponges, brushes, soap and more, as well as a clever water run-off ramp to keep excess moisture from pooling. Oh, and this price is its lowest ever.
Even grill masters could use a helping hand from time to time. Spring for this high-tech thermometer, which lets him track the internal and external temps on his iPhone, Android or smartwatch.

Pulled chicken, pulled pork — delicious to eat, but sort of a pain to make. Not anymore! This viral gadget is equipped with teeth for you to lay your meat on, as well as a lid with two handles that you place over top and move in a shimmying motion. (Don't worry, it has a nonskid base.) In mere moments, your meat will be shredded and ready for your barbecue guests.
"If you’re wondering whether this is something you want … IT IS," declared an impressed user. "I need shredded chicken often for many of my meals and appetizers, but it always took so long to shred. This thing is amazing. Takes a minute or two max and shreds it up perfectly."
Sprinklers are fun, but what kids (and kids at heart) really want is a pool. This one's suitable for splashing around on the deck, but it doubles as a float for a larger pool or lake. A built-in cupholder and headrest add to the luxury, and the thick PVC material helps prevent punctures and leaks.
If you've got an electric pump, it'll inflate in no time — and this is as low as I've ever seen it.

If you're an Amazon Prime member, you may still be able to get this bad boy in time for Father's Day this Sunday.
"Very good thermometer," said one fan who bought multiples. "Does what it needs to do. Accidentally dunked it in water and it still worked. Easy to use. Bought a second one for backup and another as a gift. Good housewarming gift or a small gift for a new cook or someone who does not know how to cook meats to temp!"
"This thing rocks!" added another shopper. "I've been cooking without one of these my whole 63-year-old life. Last night I was cooking some pork, and after the recommended cooking time, checked [the] internal temp. Perfect. But I know if I hadn't had the meat thermometer, I would have cooked it longer ... I guess I'll need to apologize for all the dry meat I've been serving all my life."
Another person shared that it made a great gift for Dad. "Bought this for Father's Day about four years ago. My husband loves this thermometer and won't cook without it," they said. "He never fails to tell me how much he enjoys it still."
Robovacs come in clutch for lazy, er, efficient cleaners like me — but for a completely hands-off experience? You'll want a self-cleaning model, like this popular unit. It can run up to 110 minutes per charge, and its large dustbin can hold about 60 days' worth of ick before needing to be emptied. Not to mention, it's on sale for its lowest price yet.
Been dyin' to try a Dyson? Not all deals from this splurge-tastic brand get my attention, but this $120 markdown sure did. This highly rated model is down to its best price in months and features a Max cleaning mode to spot-treat areas that need more attention. Got pets? The included hair-screw tool sucks up fur without getting tangled.
Home & Garden Writer Kristin Granero tested this vac, saying it's "among Dyson's more compact and budget-conscious Dyson models ... The vacuum maneuvers effortlessly over and around rugs and hardwood floors, and the hair screw tool worked miracles when it came to tight corners and detailing pet-loved couch interiors. ... We suggest it for smaller spaces with hardwood floors or shallow carpets and quicker jobs."
Whether you're at home or on vacation, this 1.7-pound device will make de-wrinkling a piece of cake.

Whether you're a seasoned green thumb or giving gardening a go for the first time this season, a reliable pair of clippers is essential. This duo — which has been purchased more than 4,000 times in the past month alone — comes in handy whether you're cutting thick branches or doing more intricate pruning.

Ah, the beach: refreshing water, the relaxing sound of waves ... and a seemingly endless supply of sand that'll somehow end up all over your car and house. But you'll be able to minimize the amount you track in, thanks to this sand-proof mat that's easy to shake free of those pesky granules. Plus, it folds down much smaller than a towel to save space in your bag, and this one — which has only dipped lower than its current price once — can fit up to eight adults.
Writer Daryl Beyers — who put many grass guzzlers to work in search of the best ones — says, "After testing many convenient self-propelled lawn mowers, I was skeptical of models without that feature. However, the other attributes of this Ego machine more than made up the difference. It was easy to use and had the most comfortable handle of all the mowers tested. With no fancy power or propel modes to worry over, I found myself forgetting it was electric and believing I was pushing an ordinary, but very quiet, lawn mower.
"Ten minutes after opening the box, it was set up and ready to roll. Thirty minutes later, the 56-volt battery was fully charged and I was in the yard cutting grass. Ego uses cross-cut blades, which means two blades are spinning under the deck, providing an excellent cut and great mulching. The balance between the blades and the power was well matched, so it ran on low power most of the time, unless the grass was extra tall or wet. It’s easy to push or pull and cut across slopes. It’s a little top-heavy, but it never felt like it would tip."
Snag it while it's down to one of its best prices in years.
Been meaning to reduce the amount of plastic in your kitchen? Look no further.

After all, you'll be less likely to leave food on your plate when it's cooked just the way you like it. And while you can't put a price on food safety, some digital thermometers cost upward of $60, so we'll take this one (it's down to its lowest price in months).
Undercooked meat is dangerous, and overcooked meat is like chewing on shoe leather. This digital thermometer will help ensure you never stress about either one again. Just poke it into your dinner-to-be and you'll have a temperature readout in a few seconds. Use it for making medium-rare steaks, properly cooked poultry or satisfyingly seared salmon. You can also use the Kizen to test-fry oil and gauge the doneness of casseroles, desserts and more without the guesswork.
It's not just for hot foods, either: It can read temps from −58°F to 572°F and has a vibrant backlit display. (Prefer your temp readings in Celsius? Done, with the press of a button.) There's also a handy chart with popular cooking temperatures displayed right on the unit. It automatically shuts off after 10 minutes to save battery life, and beyond food, you can use it to gauge the right temp for bottles, bath water, even cocktails.
The Kizen has a retractable probe for easy storage in a drawer, but it also has a magnetic back and hanging loop, so you can stick it on your fridge or display it proudly on the side of your grill. Oh yeah: It's also waterproof and easy to clean.
Amazon shoppers love how easy this gadget is to use and say it provides an accurate reading for consistently cooked food every time. More than 61,000 of 'em give it five stars.
This content cook was impressed by how quickly the readings appeared: "Within seconds, it provides an accurate temperature reading, allowing me to monitor the cooking process with confidence. No more guesswork."
"Very good thermometer," said another Kizen convert, who bought multiples. "Does what it needs to do. Accidentally dunked it in water, and it still worked. Easy to use. Bought a second one for backup and another as a gift. Good housewarming gift or a small gift for a new cook or someone who does not know how to cook meats to temp!"
"This thing rocks!" exclaimed a third. "I've been cooking without one of these my whole 63-year-old life. Last night I was cooking some pork, and after the recommended cooking time, [I] checked [the] internal temp. Perfect. But I know if I hadn't had the meat thermometer, I would have cooked it longer ... I guess I'll need to apologize for all the dry meat I've been serving all my life."
This thoughtful spouse shared that it made a great gift for Dad. "Bought this for Father's Day about four years ago. My husband loves this thermometer and won't cook without it," they said. "He never fails to tell me how much he enjoys it still."
"I use it mainly for checking chicken in my air fryer — it's been spot-on since day one," raved a generally pleased poultry prepper. "I do wish it would display the temp [for] maybe a few extra seconds longer, or have it as a display setting. Just me, though ... doesn't affect functionality at all!"
This final fan said one feature might be a little too user-friendly: "This handy little tool saves me from overcooking expensive meat," they started. "The only complaint is that it's easy to switch from Fahrenheit to Celsius and not notice."
Once you've got your perfectly cooked chicken or pork, shred it up in no time, courtesy of this fun tool.
