This is an excellent price-drop on the Plus version of the V8 – it's $10 shy of the lowest price we have on record. Although the V8 is the oldest model in the current Dyson lineup, it's still extremely popular. On test, I was impressed by the strong suction and great maneuverability. It's also one of the most affordable Dyson vacs, and even cheaper with 36% off for Prime members. This Plus version comes with a Hair screw tool borrowed from newer models – it's outstanding at getting hair (and dust) off furniture. You can read all about this vacuum in our Dyson V8 review. This deal is also available at Best Buy.

The AM07 is Dyson's most affordable fan, and it's down to its lowest-ever price in the Prime Day sales. This clever home appliance uses the brand's 'Air Multiplier' technology to amplify the air around it, creating a powerful cool breeze out of nowhere.

If you're in the market for a hands-off vacuuming solution, this Roborock deal is the best robovac offer I've spotted in the Prime Day sales – it's just received a second price cut, and is now down to a record-low price. I've tested plenty of bots from this brand, and am consistently impressed by their accurate navigation, thorough cleaning and ease of use. This model offers a strong 10,000Pa of suction, anti-tangle rollers and auto-emptying of dust into the dock (which contains a generous 2.7L dust bag, so you'll only have to deal with it once in a blue moon).

This superb bean-to-cup coffee maker has never been less than $699.95 before, and it's one of the best offers I've seen this Prime Day. It include Breville's smart dosage and tamping systems, and delivers the optimum nine bars of pressure and ideal brewing temperature for consistent results every time.

This is the original version of Dyson's iconic hair dryer. There are fancier, newer versions out, but this one is still a powerhouse – it'll dry your hair in double-quick time, and the streamlined design is comfortable to hold and easy to wield. It's down to a new lowest price for Prime members.

Lowest price: It's not often Ninja's mid-range air fryer drops this low in sales, so it's a real treat this Prime Day. The Ninja Max XL offers a 5.5-quart capacity, meaning you can fry up to 3lbs of fries, wings or whatever else you please.

If you could do with some more detail tools, it could be worth the extra $20 to pick up the V8 Extra for $319.99 (was $469.99) at Walmart instead. Or, for those with a lot of hard floors, the V8 Absolute comes with a separate Fluffy floorhead, and is $349.99 (was $519.99) at Dyson.com or Walmart.

This is a newer, budget-friendly Shark vacuum that's had an impressive 38% off for Prime Day. It's not quite the cheapest its been, but it's a very strong discount in the context of recent prices. The USP here is the auto-empty base – so when you dock the vacuum, everything in the dust cup will whoosh out and into a much larger dust cup in the base. It's a big effort- and mess-saver, especially for homes with lots of dust or pet hair.

The V15 Detect is one of Dyson's newest vacuum cleaners, and this Amazon Prime Day sale knocks a massive $180 off – taking it to just $20 more than the lowest price we have on record. This model packs advanced features like dust particle sensing and automatic suction adjustment. If you have any kind of hard floors, you'll also benefit from the soft floorhead, which works extremely well to clean and buff up hard flooring, and is equipped with a laser to illuminate hidden dust. Head to our V15 Detect review to find out more.

If you want more accessories, check out the V15 Detect Extra for $599.99 (was $799.99) at Best Buy instead.

With $50 off for Prime Day, this Levoit vacuum is back down to very nearly the lowest price we've seen this year. We awarded this vacuum an impressive 4* in our Levoit LVAC-200 review, praising how light and easy to maneuver it is, and how effectively cleaned both hard floors and rugs in our tester's home. At under $150, it's a solid, budget-friendly buy.

The V11 sits in the middle of Dyson's range, and offers perhaps the best balance of price to features. Amazon is knocking a massive $150 off for Prime subscribers – not the cheapest price we've ever seen on a V11, but a very strong discount nonetheless. It was the first model in which the dust cup, motor and wand have been positioned in a straight line to boost suction efficiency, and it offers superb cleaning, a very maneuverable floorhead, and an LCD screen to provide information.

If you want more detail tools, the V11 Extra is $449.99 (was $599.99) at Walmart or direct from Dyson.com.

While it's been a long time since this vacuum was sold at list price, $99 is an especially good deal. It's corded, which might put some people off, but there are benefits: corded vacuums tend to offer better suction than cordless ones, you'll never run out of juice, and they typically have a longer lifespan in general too. At 7.6lbs, I wouldn't call it 'ultra-light' but equally it's not overly heavy for a stick vacuum. It looks like a strong budget vacuum, and incredible value for under $100.

$80 off is a decent price-drop on this upright vacuum, although we have seen it cheaper in recent months, so it might be worth holding out for a better offer. Corded upright vacuums tend of offer significantly more powerful suction than cordless stick vacs, and the large dust cups and continuous power make them a strong choice for those with large homes and/or lots of pet hair to clear. I haven't tested this model but I have used other similar Shark uprights – the brand's signature modular design is used here, which means you can hold the dust cup separately and use the vacuum in various configurations for different cleaning tasks.

For Prime Day, this Shark cordless is back down to the lowest price we've seen all year. It looks like a capable cleaner, with up to 40 minutes of cleaning on one charge, HEPA filtration and a floorhead with LED headlights. However, there doesn't seem to much of a difference in specs compared to the IX141 above, and that's $50 cheaper, so probably a better buy.

If you're in the market for a hands-off vacuuming solution, this Roborock deal is the best robovac offer I've spotted in the Prime Day sales – it's just received a second price cut, and is now down to a record-low price. I've tested plenty of bots from this brand, and am consistently impressed by their accurate navigation, thorough cleaning and ease of use. This model offers a strong 10,000Pa of suction, anti-tangle rollers and auto-emptying of dust into the dock (which contains a generous 2.7L dust bag, so you'll only have to deal with it once in a blue moon).

If you're looking for a truly hands-off option, this robot vacuum's dock will take care of all manner of maintenance tasks for you. Not only will it empty dust, but it'll also refill the bot's water tanks and even wash its mop pads. There's a massive 38% off for Prime subscribers right now, taking this handy home helper down to the lowest price we have on record. Elsewhere, expect capable cleaning, reliable navigation and an easy-to-use app.

This superb bean-to-cup coffee maker has never been less than $699.95 before, and it's one of the best offers I've seen this Prime Day. It include Breville's smart dosage and tamping systems, and delivers the optimum nine bars of pressure and ideal brewing temperature for consistent results every time.

The Magnifica Evo gives you the best of both worlds, brewing perfectly balanced hot or cold espresso, and offering fine control of brewing settings while being simple enough for even first-timers to use. It's back down to its lowest-ever price ahead of Amazon Prime Day, with a huge $350 off the regular price.

My colleague Josephine Watson called this "easily one of the best bean-to-cup coffee makers I’ve tested", and Amazon has knocked over $500 off the price with this special Prime Day offer. It can brew hot and cold espresso, and features De'Longhi's Bean Adapt system, which helps you choose the perfect grind settings to get a perfectly rounded flavor from your beans.

The LatteGo series is a great choice if you don't have a lot of space to spare in your kitchen, and with a huge $300 off for Prime Day, it's easy to recommend. I'm testing a LatteGo machine right now, and I'm very impressed by how easy it makes brewing coffee, even for a first-time user, and the way its milk system can be fully detached for easy cleaning. This model uses touch buttons rather than a screen, so there's no need to spend time scrolling through menus (definitely a plus).

The Linea Classic is a super stylish espresso machine that'll look stunning in your kitchen (just look at that pressure gauge), and nobody will guess that it costs just $150 with this hot Prime Day deal. Our reviewer Karen Freeman gave it four and a half stars, praising its ease of use and consistent results. The steam wand is excellent too – you just need your own grinder.

This stylish little espresso machine looks just as good as KitchenAid's famous stand mixers, and Amazon has knocked over $100 off the price, making it fantastic value over Prime Day week. This machine will choose the brew temperature and time for you, taking some of the work out of making coffee, leaving you to grind the beans (with a separate grinder) and froth the milk yourself.

With a neat $40 savings, you can score yourself this excellent, 8qt capacity air fryer. It boasts dual cooking zones and six preset functions, so you can preparing several meals simultaneously. While it did fall to $119.99 over Black Friday in 2023, this price is the cheapest we've seen so far this year.

Save $90 on Instant's dual basket air fryer, which offers 7 cooking functions to air fry, bake, roast and more. This isn't the best price we've ever seen for this particular model, but it's not far off, and rarely dips that much lower.

One of our top-rated air fryers, Instant Pot's Vortex Plus earned 4.5-stars in our review. It's versatile with a good range of cooking modes, speedy cooking times and even results. It's a little bulky, especially considering there are some very compact alternatives these days, but at this price, it might be a concession worth making.

A neat saving, though we have seen it as low as $170 a few times this year already. If you simply can't wait, it's still a worthwhile option; one of the best dual-basket air fryers for $70 less. Its Smart Finish function means it will automatically adjust cooking times so that both sides finish at the same time, with six cooking modes to choose from.

Lowest price: It's not often Ninja's mid-range air fryer drops this low in sales, so it's a real treat this Prime Day. The Ninja Max XL offers a 5.5-quart capacity, meaning you can fry up to 3lbs of fries, wings or whatever else you please.

While not quite at its lowest price, it's only $2 off, and that's a great deal on this excellent, compact air fryer. It offers nine cooking modes – air fry, roast, bake, broil, dehydrate, frozen, proof, reheat, and keep warm – so it's plenty versatile.

This isn't the most spectacular deal, but if small is what you want, this is one of the best mini air fryers we've seen. It's lowest-ever price was $39.99 last Black Friday, but if you can't wait until November to see if that's a repeat performance, don't miss this low price!

The FlexBreeze offers outstanding flexibility: it can be used as a tabletop or pedestal fan, indoors or outside, and corded or cordless. This version comes with a mister attachment, which you hook up to a water source to create an icy breeze to take down temperatures. The whole thing is down to a new all-time lowest price this Prime Day.

The AM07 is Dyson's most affordable floor-standing fan, and it has just dropped to a new lowest-ever price in the Amazon Prime Day sales. This clever, bladeless fan uses the brand's 'Air Multiplier' technology to amplify the air around it, creating a powerful cool breeze, seemingly out of nowhere.

This dinky portable fan's party trick is a built-in misting attachment, which will envelope you in a cloud of cold air as you're enjoying the cool breeze (our tester loved it in our Shark FlexBreeze HydroGo review). This Prime Day deal takes it back down to the lowest price we've seen on this relatively new-out home appliance. It's your perfect summer companion, for a bargain price.
