Prime Day, Amazon’s annual members-only sale, starts today and ends on Wednesday at midnight ET. There are a lot of home goods on sale this year, including mainstay categories, like mattresses, and some wild cards, like surprisingly great deals on ceiling fans and highly rated clothes hangers that come out to about a quarter apiece. To help you sort through such a high volume of sales, we’ve singled out the best deals on items we’re enthusiastic about. That includes products we’ve written about before and brands we trust, from our favorite smart garden for growing countertop basil — on sale for the best price we’ve seen since January — to a fun set of cabana-striped towels.
We’re also checking to make sure these are actually good deals, not just a 5 percent discount on an item that’s on perma-sale. (Even if something you have your eye on didn’t go on sale today, you might find a better price at a different time of year; turn on email alerts at the Amazon price-tracking site Camelcamelcamel to make sure you don’t miss it.) We’ll be updating this list throughout the day to make sure prices are up-to-date and to add new deals the Strategist staff discovers.
