This is not the lowest price we’ve seen for this cleaner, but we included it because it's an NBC Select Pet Awards winner and expert-recommended portable carpet cleaner. NBC Select updates editor Mili Godio has used it for years on her carpets and upholstered furniture — it comes in handy when her 16-pound Havachon tracks dirt in the house. “It’s amazing to see the difference in color after using it, especially when I clean my carpet,” she says.

Traeger makes some of the best pellet grills, according to grilling experts. This electric model — which you can use as a grill, smoker, roaster or BBQ — is one of their smallest and a good fit for beginners who don’t want to deal with gas or charcoal. It has a cooking area of 575 square inches — in food terms, that’s about four chickens or five racks of ribs, according to the brand. You can control the grill manually or with your smartphone through the Traeger app.

Dyson makes some of the best vacuums for hardwood and carpets. One of their lowest priced models, it comes with a large head that picks up debris on all floor types, a crevice tool to get to hard-to-reach areas and more. You can easily convert it into a handheld vacuum, too, by taking off the central pole, something I often do to clean my couch.
It may not have all the bells and whistles newer versions have (like an LED screen or illuminating dust light), but it costs much less.

This top-rated tool kit includes two essentials: a cordless drill and a cordless impact driver, plus two batteries, one charging station and a large bag to hold it all.

Why have an air purifier or a fan when you can have both? This Dyson tower pulls unfiltered air from all around its base, then blows clean air out across your space. The fan can oscillate nearly 360 degrees, a useful feature if you want to place it in a corner or the center of a room. It also has a night mode that keeps the fan at its quietest speed.

This is one of Amazon’s bestselling kitchen gadgets and a time saver when prepping ingredients, says NBC Select commerce editor Lindsay Schneider. “It’s really satisfying to use — it perfectly chops vegetables into pieces that are the exact same size,” she says.
It comes with four interchangeable blades, and the lid chops food directly into the collection tray that’s dishwasher safe. It also comes with a cleaning brush, scraper and a finger guard.

This grilling accessory lets you monitor the internal temperature of your meat remotely, without having to hover over your grill. Using the Meater mobile app, you can check internal and ambient temperatures on your phone, plus see suggested cook times based on the recipe. It’s at its lowest price ever, likely because the Meater Plus 2 released late last year.

I’ve had this pillow on my bed for over five years, it’s my favorite sleep product. It’s filled with shredded hypoallergenic memory foam that’s comfortable and adjustable, unlike block memory foam I’ve used in the past.

This NBC Select Wellness Award winner is one of the best sunrise alarm clocks — it combines light and sound to mimic a sunrise, gently encouraging you to wake up, says Malin. You can fully customize the light colors, levels and transition speed, as well as set up soundscapes and routines. Malin’s iPhone alarm clock used to jolt her awake and sour her morning — the Restore 2 enables her to gradually transition from sleeping to waking. You can learn more about her experience in our Hatch Restore 2 review.

Samsonite makes some of our favorite luggage — experts recommend this model as one of the best pieces of carry-on luggage. That’s because it’s relatively light weight at 6.5 pounds, expandable up to one inch and has four wheels for extra maneuverability. It also has an ID tag and TSA-compatible combination lock built in. It comes in multiple colors — I recommend one that is easy to spot at baggage claim, just in case you have an unexpected gate check.

Apple’s 5th generation iPad Air matches its lowest price ever, likely because the brand released new iPads earlier this month. The iPad Air is one of my favorite tablets: it has a bright screen, loud stereo speakers on each side, and more than enough speed to tackle any task I throw at it. Plus, it’s compact and easy to travel with.
The cheaper 64GB version may be out of stock, but this upgraded 256GB is still available on Amazon.

I see AirPods everywhere, and for good reason: if you own an iPhone, they are some of the most convenient wireless earbuds available. They pair effortlessly across Apple devices, and support Apple features like voice controls with Siri. They also have a semi-open fit, no rubber eartip blocking your ear canal. While they are comfortable, they don’t block or have any noise cancellation. The buds and charging case combined have over 24 hours of battery life, according to the brand.

I bought this wall charger during Black Friday last year because I have way too many little single-plug power bricks in my house that aren’t strong enough to quickly charge my laptop, earbuds or headphones. This one is: it has 65W of power across three USB ports, which is more than enough to charge any small gadget.

The 1.0 version of this tool is one of our favorite hair dryers because it lets you dry, brush and style your hair at the same time. The large, oval-shaped brush has airflow vents throughout, right alongside nylon and tufted bristles that are designed to detangle and create volume, according to the brand. It has four heat settings (cool, low, medium high) and you’ll need to plug it in to use.
