This year, Amazon surprised its Prime members with a second 48-hour sale called the Prime Early Access Sale. We've noticed that, as in years past, the company is offering huge discounts on smart home gear, such as the Echo Show 8 and Amazon Smart Plugs, as well as other personal essentials, including the Conair Hair Dryer by Leandro Limited and Crest 3D Teeth-Whitening Strips.
We've compiled a list of the best deals on everyday essentials. To help you quickly navigate to the products you need most, we've organized this list into seven sections: trending, tech and electronics, apparel and accessories, home and kitchen, lawn and garden, sports and fitness equipment and health and beauty.
Deal availability/pricing are always subject to change. BestReviews will be updating this roundup several times through the duration of Prime Day. We recommend checking back throughout the duration of the event as we add more worthwhile bargains.
