Watching diner cooks flip eggs and pancakes with an effortless flick of the wrist has to be one of the most satisfying restaurant experiences. But making breakfast at home can be one of the most tedious if you don't have a slick skillet that'll keep food from sticking. That's why one Yahoo shopping editor — who happens to be an alum of the French Culinary Institute — went in search of the best nonstick pans. Which one took the gold? That would be the wildly popular Tramontina Professional Nonstick Fry Pan, which happens to be marked down big-time at Amazon. Who doesn't love a sizzlin' sale?
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.
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.

This handy bathroom organizer set, a hefty 70% off, includes two large shower caddies, two soap holders and a toothbrush holder. Got big bottles of shampoo? There's a caddy for that. Got a bar of soap? There's a caddy for that. Their adhesive backing means you can stick 'em to tile walls or other nonporous surfaces without breaking out any tools. And don't worry: The big ones can hold up to 40 pounds.
"I am impressed with the strength of the adhesive," wrote a five-star fan. "I actually moved the location twice, and the adhesive held up very well. I have a small shower and these are perfect."
This chopper has a high-efficiency motor that handles even thick branches with ease, all while weighing under 3 pounds.
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.

While we love the cooler temps fall introduces, the leaf maintenance? Not so much. But that's why tools like this top-seller exist.
Despite its 4-pound size, it can reach speeds as fast as 150 mph to clear your yard in no time, and because it comes with two batteries, you'll be able to work for up to 20 minutes before needing a charge (10 minutes per battery). This is within a few bucks of its lowest-ever price, so snag one while it's 45% off.
Oven mitts, pot holders and kitchen towels need to be replaced every so often, and if yours are ready to be tossed, this set is an excellent deal. Because it's KitchenAid, you know you're getting a quality product, and what sets the included oven mitt apart is the fact that it has nonstick silicone grips for more confident handling of hot pots and pans.
At 60% off, this is just about as low as it's been all year, so you might want to stock up on a few sets.
We love easily portable home exercise equipment, so this treadmill's 45-pound weight, and wheels, have got us smitten. Then there's its performance. Don't be fooled by the lack of heft — it's still durable enough to support up to 320 pounds. Its three settings include work mode, walking mode and running mode, the fastest reaching up to 3.8 mph. Via the user-friendly display, you'll be able to track your time, speed, calories and total mileage. (It comes with a remote that you can use to adjust the speed or stop the machine.)
Because it has a quiet motor, you're unlikely to disturb anyone while you're walking — and when your workout is complete, its short profile allows you to slide it under a bed or sofa if you want to store it out of sight.
We recently saw it dip down to $160, which we thought was an excellent price, so the fact that it's even less now? Score!
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!"
Before you find yourself immersed in all things pine tree and sugar cookie, revel in the bliss of autumnal aromas courtesy of this No. 1 bestselling candle.

We know what you're thinking: "Do I really need a bidet?" And if you're perfectly content shelling out for TP and wiping your bum with a scratchy sheet of paper that does a questionable job at best, the answer is no.
But, in the event that you're ready to improve your backside hygiene game, this easy-install accessory is a total game changer. Not only is it more thorough than wiping, it'll also make you feel like you're getting a spa treatment. This is the best price we've seen it on sale for in months...
The holidays are quickly approaching, and if you're set to host this year, you'd be wise to grab some matching flatware sets while they're as affordable as this one.
For $20, you're getting four salad forks, dinner forks, teaspoons, dinner spoons and dinner knives — and if you're expecting a larger crowd, it won't cost much to add a few more sets. We've never seen these stainless steel utensils dip lower than they are now.
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 down to the lowest price we've seen all year.

This versatile skillet ain't no flash in the pan — it's been a staple in one Yahoo Life editor's kitchen for years.
Why have a jumble of lids in your cabinets when this one can fit 10-, 11- and 12-inch pans? Its heat-resistant knob spares your hands from touching a hot surface and a steam vent helps release excess moisture.
"We have used it for different-sized fry pans," wrote a five-star reviewer. "It works well to keep the steam in the pan while giving visibility. The rubber edge provides a snug fit to various-sized pans."
Compared to many of the other pans our editor tested (HexClad, Le Creuset, Made In), this one's an absolute steal at $26 (down from $45). In fact, it's the least expensive of the bunch, so the fact that it earned the top spot speaks volumes to how well it performed. This isn't the absolute best price we've seen it on sale for, but it's close to as low as it's been all year — and at over 40% off, it's a stellar deal.
Yahoo shopping editor Lisa Schweitzer, who conducted the nonstick pan test, says, "I've been using a Tramontina nonstick pan for years. Cooking with this pan is a dream!" Among its many perks are its lightweight, 2-pound design, which 5-foot-tall Lisa says is "a huge plus when it comes to maneuverability," as well as the removable silicone grip on its handle, which will protect your hands while you cook.
Made of commercial-grade aluminum with a PFOA-free nonstick coating, you can use this pan on glass, electric and ceramic glass stovetops, plus it's safe to put in the oven (at 400°F with the silicone handle grip and 500°F without). That means you can get a nice sear on your steak and then finish it in the oven to cook it to your liking. It's also dishwasher-safe, but Lisa says, "Cleanup is a breeze and only requires a few swipes with a soapy sponge, even around the rivets that secure the handle."
You won't need to douse the pan in butter to keep things from sticking, either; Lisa says a small "slick of oil" will do. And if you're cooking fish and other proteins? "I had no problems searing skin-on salmon filets or releasing chicken breasts from the surface," she reports. "It performed as well or better than all the other pans I tested, crisping salmon skin to brown ASMR perfection and cooking golden pancakes without hot spots."
Lisa's in good company; over 18,000 Amazon customers are smitten with the Tramontina nonstick pan too.
"This is the best nonstick pan I’ve ever used," raved one convert. "It’s light and easy to maneuver on the stove. The silicone grip stays cool to the touch. Great for sautés!"
"Great pan so far, nothing sticks," agreed another. "I'm flipping omelets easily, made a fantastic burger last night with a perfect crust on it. Cooks evenly and has great balance. Another great thing is it's very easy to clean. No need to spend $100-plus on a frying pan when this one does an amazing job for under 30 bucks. Couldn't be happier."
"This is our second one," shared a repeat buyer (and regretful host). "The first lasted five years and would have lasted longer if house guests hadn’t used tools and scrubbies that scratched it. This one will get locked up when guests are here. Great nonstick pan."
"The only thing I am not delighted with is the handle, which is quite long and heavier than any other frying pan I've used," wrote an otherwise happy shopper. "When I'm cooking food, it's not an issue, but if I place the pan on my (gas) stove without food, it can wobble because of the handle. Do I like this pan? Yes, a lot. Would I buy it again? Yes, absolutely."
"This one seems well made," said a final fan. "I just wish they made clear glass lids for them. I kept the lid off my old 10-inch skillet, but it doesn't fit well. Sometimes, when cooking eggs, I like to steam them a little bit. But without a lid that doesn't seal, you can't. Other than that, I love the skillet." (Psst: Keep scrolling for a brilliant solution.)
Put a lid on it with this clever contraption.
