Amazon’s Blink Mini 2 (7/10, WIRED recommended) captures crisp 1080p HD video and reliably captures motion. It is also weather resistant, but if you want to use it outdoors you will need to purchase the version with weatherproof adapter ($30 in the Prime Day sale) to use it safely. However, for features like person detection, live recording, video sharing, and cloud recording with a 60-day video history, you’ll need a subscription.

Click the coupon button to see the discount at checkout. This is a great smart plug for Siri lovers. It also works with Google and Alexa, but it is one of the few that works well with Apple. It’s also small and fits into one outlet without blocking the other outlet. This pack also comes with four plugs.

This is a stunning Edison style light bulb that works via Bluetooth or a Philips Hue Bridge ($60). That way, you can control it remotely or set up a hub to control it remotely and also set up automated routines. It doesn’t change colors like other smart ads, but you can adjust the brightness.

The Kasa smart plug is ideal if you want to turn almost anything into a smart device (including a lamp, coffee maker, or TV). It’s nice and small, so it won’t block neighboring outlets. With the companion app, you can create routines and scenes like you would with other smart lights. This one also comes in a four-pack.

At 100 decibels, the siren is also very loud, so you will surely hear it ringing if you are at home; at which point you can turn off the sound from the app. However, you’ll have to use the sensors with the included Govee Wi-Fi hub, which requires a power outlet.

These little headphones are our best headphones for small ears. They come on a keychain, so you can hang them on your purse, gym bag, or anywhere you need to have a pair of headphones on hand. Our only control is battery life: because they’re so small, you’ll only get about 5.5 hours of charge.

Although this speaker is small, its sound is surprisingly detailed and it also has a good amount of bass. It’s also currently the best Amazon speaker you can get for the price. So with this discount, it’s technically a bargain.

The Amazon Echo Pop (7/10, WIRED recommends) is one of the latest additions to Amazon’s speaker line. The crescent-shaped devices come in fun colors and are perfect for a colorful office or bedroom. It doesn’t sound as robust as the Echo Dot, but it’s still a solid option for occasional listening.

If you are purchasing headphones for your children, it is important to make sure they have limited volume so as not to damage their hearing. The Altec Lansing are limited to 85 decibels but also come with active noise cancellation to block out background noise. They are also wireless and have up to 15 hours of battery life on a single charge.

Creative’s small Pebble V3 speakers offer excellent sound quality, especially for games and meetings. The mid and low notes come through very well and there is also a unique gain switch that you can activate. The speakers connect via USB-C, Bluetooth, or the included 3.5mm audio cable.

These wireless earbuds aren’t the most feature-rich, especially compared to the second-generation Echo Buds, which come with active noise cancellation. But they are affordable and come with Alexa built-in. It’s a solid option if you want a pair that you don’t have to handle too carefully.

This little Bluetooth microphone is one of our favorite gifts for music lovers. It pairs with your phone and comes with built-in reverb and delay. The speaker is also built into the handle, so you don’t need any additional equipment to host a karaoke night with your friends.

Offers for home and kitchen

Looking for a super small sound machine? Restnature is ideal for a trip or if you don’t want to take up precious space on your nightstand. It’s palm-sized and fits easily in a pocket, but still offers a variety of 16 different sounds to choose from, along with 30, 60, and 90 minute timer options.

The HealthSmart Humidifier Lamp is an LED lamp that emits a soft multi-color light to help you relax before bed. But it also works as a humidifier if you have a stuffy nose or are a little sick. And, if that wasn’t enough, you can also use it to diffuse essential oils. There’s also a smart touch panel to control lighting, mist modes, and a timer.

Simply place this lamp on the floor, plug it in, and point it toward the wall to create a halo effect with pops of color. It will make your space feel super cozy. Unfortunately, it comes with a short cord, so you’ll have to plug it into a power strip if you want to place it in the desired location.

If you’re looking for an affordable body pillow, this is one of our favorite options for side sleepers. It is filled with plush polyester fiber and can be contorted to fit any position you are comfortable in. At 20 x 54 inches, it’s also a pretty large pillow for this price.

The super loud vibrating alarm clock is the best option for those with hearing problems in our Best Extreme Alarm Clocks guide. It’s semi-customizable, with a bell that reaches up to 106 decibels and a bed shaker that you can use separately or with the alarm. The vibrations offer a more subtle way to wake you up if you don’t want to hear jarring alarm sounds, while the increasing pattern of the buzz helps wake you up.

This body pillow is super soft, very huggable, and has a soft, stretchy fabric that feels like velvet. It is ideal for side sleepers, especially those who are cat fans. Otherwise, you can get an axolotl, a cow, a fox, a penguin or a panda. This is also the lowest price we’ve seen so far.

The Primula Burke cold brew machine earned an honorable mention in our cold brew machine buying guide. It’s affordable and produces a smooth-tasting coffee with that smooth, signature cold brew flavor. Since the filter is quite fine, you also don’t have to worry about finding a lot of sediment in your coffee. It is also dishwasher safe and fits in most refrigerator doors.

This is an adorable lunch box that comes with a reusable ice pack that fits between the layers of the tray. It’s incredibly useful if you want to keep things cold during an outing. It’s also dishwasher safe, so cleanup is easy.

The KitchenAid Digital Platform Scale is our top pick in our guide to the best kitchen scales. The two-in-one model comes with a smaller scare that can weigh up to 0.1 grams, along with the ability to weigh two ingredients simultaneously. The large display is also backlit for easy reading and the stainless steel platforms provide a sleek look in any kitchen.

With cookie season approaching, you’ll need a sturdy baking sheet. We love these from Nordic Ware. They have lasted us more than a decade so far, without deformations or setbacks. Currently, you can get two for the price of one. That way you can stock up.

The Bitvae electric toothbrush is already our favorite cheap option, and it’s on sale now. It does a good job of cleaning, comes with eight replacement heads, and is available in several colors. The only drawback is that the charger is not that practical.

In-office teeth whitening treatments are expensive. But these Crest 3D Whitestrips are the closest thing you can get without breaking the bank. Although the adhesive strips aren’t the most pleasant to use (you can’t eat or drink them for an hour and they also tend to build up into foamy, sticky bumps), we saw visible results after using them.

This sleeping mask over the lips went viral on TikTok for good reason. The balm melts quickly and sinks into your skin, allowing you to wake up to the softest lips you’ve ever seen. The scent is also super pleasant and doesn’t linger too long.

These are a thin, affordable pair of earplugs that are great to take to shows if you don’t want to be judged on them. They have clear stems and tips that enter the ear canal and reduce sounds by an average of 22 decibels. They also do a solid job of being relatively flat.
