Reviewers say the installation was easy and that a single charge lasts a couple months!Promising review: "Easy to install and adds a great level of security. It functions well. Connected easily to my phone. It is sensitive to motion near the area. Gives a clear image. My young son now says good night to me before his mommy puts him to bed, and I'm at work. That is an added bonus to having this Ring doorbell. Along with the security, I feel [like I'm at home] when I'm away from home. It was a small investment to add more security for my home and family." —PeggyPrice: $54.99 (originally $99.99; available in two colors).

BTW, each pen contains about 20 uses!Promising review: "I have to say, I was skeptical about this product from all the TikTok hype about it, but after trying it out, it really does work. This was super easy, didn't hurt my teeth at all, and didn't taste much different than my regular toothpaste since I got the mint-flavored one. I used it for a few weeks before my brother's wedding, and it worked like a charm. I noticed visible results in only a couple of days and was able to keep using it until I reached my desired shade of white. 10/10 would recommend for anyone with sensitive teeth and tastes!" —Victoria BravoPromising review: "Saw this on BuzzFeed — they were right! It's easy to use and actually works. I was so surprised at how well this pen bleached out some coffee stains on my teeth after just one application.

Promising review: "This is one of the best things I've ever bought, I wish I had bought it sooner! I have four dogs and it picks up their hair easily, and the anti-tangle roller actually works! It was very easy to assemble, it's lightweight, easy to maneuver, and the dust bin is super easy to empty. The suction is very good and so far I haven't needed to use the max setting. I highly recommend the Dyson V8 Plus Cordless Vacuum!" —JazzyluPrice: $349.99 (originally $469.99).
A pack of washing machine cleaner tablets for 22% off to clean the grime, gunk, and funky smells in all the hidden spots you can't easily reach (or at all). It has 98,000 5-star ratings *and* reviewers love it because it's saved them from buying a new washing machine — and those machines are not cheap.
Active is a small-biz based in Minneapolis that specializes in cleaning products.Promising review: "Easy to use, I use this after I wash the dog beds in the washer. It doesn't seem like there's any buildup in the washer. Which is good, because my husband likes to drown the clothes in detergent whenever he does laundry. It's especially important to remove any buildup in the machine, because I wash my son's cloth diapers in there and buildup in the machine could cause him to get rashes. I like to use these weekly." —D0minAZNPrice: $15.55 (originally $19.95 for a pack of 24).
A 4K Amazon Fire TV Stick for 40% off so you can turn your regular ol' TV into a marathon-watching beast.

It's the perfect way to watch Netflix, Prime Video, Hulu, Disney+, and way more!
Promising review: "I've been using Fire Sticks for a while now, and I can honestly say these new ones are a great improvement. They're much faster and more reliable compared to the older versions. The older models started having issues, and it was really frustrating when they began to go out. It was honestly disappointing because I loved the product, but those problems made me hesitant to continue using it. However, these new Fire Sticks have been a pleasant surprise. They load faster, stream more smoothly, and I haven't had any of the issues I experienced with the older models. I'm really happy with the upgrade, and it's made a noticeable difference in how much I enjoy using them. If you're considering the new Fire Stick, I'd say it's definitely worth it!" —The Real Deal Reviews with JennyPrice: $29.99 (originally $49.99)
A dehumidifier for 20% off that'll suck the moisture out of your air. It pulls up to 35 pints of water a day, so it's perfect if your basement, bedroom, or entire home is starting to feel like a swamp. It's even got wheels and a washable filter, too.
Promising review: "Bought in 2019, still in peak performance! She's all busted up from being moved around the house by two kids over the years and works just as good as day one. There were no options for all those extra bells and whistles when I bought it back in the day.... does exactly what it should! I'm definitely saving this brand/model for the, inevitable, sad day when our unit will pass over the rainbow bridge. If I was smart, and rich enough, I'd buy another one already." —Sheri P.Price: $195.29 (originally $244.99; available in various styles for different-sized spaces).

Plus, the built-in steam wand even lets you froth milk like a latte artist — heart-shaped foam, anyone?
Promising review: "Obsessed with my new espresso machine. Definitely a learning curve, but it's worth all of the effort. The manual is easy to read and the machine is user-friendly. The Breville Barista Pro makes great-tasting espresso, especially for those who aren't looking to drop thousands of dollars. I love it!" —Kristina HPrice: $599.99 (originally $849.95; also available in three other colors).
A Simple Modern rubber tote bag for up to 30% off, a roomy, waterproof carryall that's perfect for beach days, pool hangs or just hauling everything you own in one stylish swoop. It's made of sturdy EVA material (aka it's easy to clean and won't flop over), has comfy straps, and even comes with a removable zipper pouch to keep your phone and keys safe. Bonus: It looks like just like the Bogg Bag but it's *much* cheaper.
Promising review: "So glad I bought the XL Simple Modern Tote for our beach bag. It holds everything we need for the beach with room to spare, beach towels, snacks, books, sunscreen, shells, the pocket is nice for lip sunscreen, keys, and cellphones, too! It seemed like an expensive splurge, but I'm so glad I bought this tote!! I think I'll also get a lot of use toting items to/from work, and for groceries, so a good value and will hold up for many years. Not heavy. Very sturdy, it doesn't fall over even on [a] windy beach! Very comfy to carry. The handles are long enough [that] you can easily get your arm through with [the] bag filled. Also, other reviews complain of the slight curve, and after sampling other similar bags, I thought this is a plus, making it more comfortable to carry against your body. And the handles easily fold down…. the biggest plus of all! Don't hesitate, just buy this bag. Glad I did! —JADMOMPrice: $41.99+ (typically $59.99 on Simple Modern, originally $59.99 on Amazon; available in 23 colors and three sizes).
A cordless lawn mower for 30% off with a push-to-start button so you don't have to tug on a stubborn cord three times before getting your yard work done. It's quiet, powerful, and gas-free to help ensure that you won't deal with fumes or any fuss. BTW, the battery lasts up to 45 minutes!
Promising review: So my husband bought this because we were fed up with our [last] mower and when it did work, the vibrations did nothing for my severe carpal tunnel. So he bought the electric mower. We have had it for a month or two now and it's been wonderful to use. It's quiet, turns on easily, and [has] no vibration so my hands don't hurt when I finish using it. I've used all kinds of push mowers over the past 25 years, and I never thought I'd like a battery-powered one. I thought it would only be good for trim and small jobs. Well, let me tell you I just used it to cut an area that is usually under water, and our riding mower can't do [it], so the grass is 3 to 4 feet tall — and it just cut through it without a problem. I only wish that it was a bit wider and that the battery life was a bit [longer]. The battery lasts about an hour, which is enough for most jobs." —Kat MeltonPrice: $209.98 (originally $299; available in different sizes).
A super quier Cosori Air Fryer for 25% off that'll have you cooking like you've got your own Food Network show. This machine can do it all, including: air fry, bake, broil, roast, dehydrate, reheat, proof dough, cook frozen food, *and* keep things warm — all without heating up your entire kitchen. It uses TurboBlaze technology to cook faster and the roomy basket is big enough to feed the whole crew (or just you, with plenty of leftovers). Oh, and the basket and crisper plate are dishwasher-safe, too!
Promising review: "I don't know how I went so long without an air fryer. This one is perfect, it has lots of options and is pretty straightforward with the screen alone on how it works. The recipe book it comes with is awesome. We've been trying a few things the past few days and each meal turns out great. It doesn't contain smells when you cook, especially fish, just FYI. It's easy to clean, though. I'm SO glad I got the six-quart versus a smaller one. Definitely recommend getting a six-quart if you can, even if you're just one person. Cooking two things at once (Fries & nuggets) saves a lot of time and effort vs. a two-quart or four-quart. Cooking with the air fryer is super quick and easy, which I appreciate as a disabled person who can't bend and lift very well using a normal oven. It is pretty large, so I recommend having a designated counter spot for it, and also having a safe place ready to go to set the hot basket on when your food is ready!" —KatiePrice: $89.97 (originally $119.99; also available in two other colors and various styles).
A solar generator for 36% off that'll save you a cool 200 bucks if you decide to get it today. It'll keep your gadgets juiced and your adventures uninterrupted, whether you're camping off-grid, prepping for outages, or just want to flex your eco-friendly side. These sleek power stations are built to deliver clean, quiet energy with no gas, fumes, or noise accompanying it.
Promising review: "I can highly recommend this portable power station. I purchased this because I wanted something portable when I am not near my truck camper. I thought this power station would be larger, but it is not; it's lightweight and very easy to store. I was able to run my Starlink and two laptop chargers throughout the day. Using the app is very convenient to check and understand the power draw from the devices that are plugged in." —JeffPrice: $448.99 (originally $699).
A set of solar-powered outdoor string lights for up to 40% off that'll make your backyard feel like a Pinterest board that came to life. These Edison-style beauties give off a warm, cozy glow, run on solar power, and can handle rain, wind, and snow. Just stake the panel in the sun, let it charge, and now you have perfect vibes for every outdoot night!
Btw, reviewers say to buy the same length because the bulbs are spaced out differently between the various lengths!Promising review: "These lights are great! They are easy to install. We put ours on a fence around our backyard. They come with a clip that makes it super simple. The lights are much brighter than you'd think for solar and you can brighten them even more with the included remote. What's also very cool is that you can turn them off at night with the remote if you want to do so. Just remember to click the remote to the ON position the next morning so the lights will automatically come back on at night. They are made of a good quality plastic so there are no worries about the bulbs breaking." —JJ ReviewsPrice: $29.99 (originally $49.99; available in three colors and three lengths).
A clip-on JBL speaker for 38% off, aka it's best price to date! You can attach it to your chairs, foldout tables, or even your bag — 'cause we can all agree that the trek from the beach to your car is just the worst, right? And don't worry about whipping it out at the beach either, because it's waterproof and dustproof!
Promising review: "I was not expecting much from a 'mini' portable speaker. But this thing packs a punch. Sound that filled the house when I tried it out, and then blasted it on full blast, and sounded great still! The updated carabiner clips perfectly to our Yeti tote bag, which we use for everyday lugging and beach days. Extra points for looking really good, too. Cost is well worth it. And it charged super quickly. (Fully charged in less than 30 mins... but did not time it exactly) Easy to link via Bluetooth and launch the JBL app for fine-tuning the EQ. It has a nice weighty feel that feels like a durable quality build. Size is a little bigger than I was thinking but still very portable and easy to pack, clip, and hide away when not using." —David CardenasPrice: $49.95 (originally $79.95; available in nine color schemes).
A Kojic Acid Dark Spot Remover Soap for 20% off that helped one reviewer make their dark spot of 20 years *poof* into existence. It's formulated with powerhouse ingredients like retinol, vitamin C, and turmeric to help hyperpigmentation disappear. And if you're worried it'll leave your skin feeling dry or stripped, it *also* has shea butter, olive oil, and hyaluronic acid to help combat that.
Promising review: "I got this in hopes of lightening my dark inner thighs. It's been a month of using the bar every time I shower, and I see drastic results already. I was a bit suspicious if this would actually work, but if you are on the fence please take this as a sign to get it and try it out. I'm so excited to see how I look in a few months from now because this thing works, and it works fast!" —puppbearPromising review: "I started using this product one month ago. I use it all over my body [and] it lightened my underarms just in time for spring. I wish I knew about this sooner." —Michaella LeyeinPrice: $11.99 (originally $14.99; also available in multipacks).

Grace and Stella's under-eye masks are AMAZING!! In minutes byeeee BAGZZZZ and HELLO Bright and BEAUTIFUL!!" —TrixiePrice: $15.95 (originally $21.95; available in different styles and various pack sizes).
An Anker USB-C charger for 40% off with three ports so you can juice your phone, laptop, and tablet at once. It's compact enough to toss in your overstuffed bag and powerful enough to keep up with even the most plugged-in lifestyle.
It has two USB-C ports and one USB-A port!Promising review: "I only try to use Anker devices for my power bricks and this is another solid one that I'm really happen with. I use it to charge my MacBook Pro, iPad, and many other devices. It doesn't have any problems with overheating for anything I've put it through and it saves a lot of space compared to having to lug around a lot of other chargers." —DonPrice: $29.99 (originally $49.99).

The best part is that they fit seamlessly into the back so they won't get bent out of shape.
Promising review: "I've had this charger for a little over six months now and it is AWESOME. My best friend has had the same one for years and I was a little weary as a lot of the time built-in cords can be cheap. Not these at all. You can charge multiple things at once and this portable charger does hold a charge for a good amount of time, if no one's on their phone while they are charging with it, you could probably get two or three full charges. It does take a little while to charge up, but it is a wonderful charger and I would highly recommend." —oliviaPrice: $19.98 (originally $29.99, available in six colors).

I was really not looking forward to trying to replace it as in my opinion it seems like things are made so poorly these days. I found this cleaner and gave it a try. Let me tell you, I'm loving this even more that the one it replaced. The divided solution tank is so awesome and lasts!! The carpet comes out looking new and smell so great!! It was easy to put together and is easy to use!! Both my boyfriend and I have gone on and on about how it's one of the best purchases we've made. We also got lucky finding it when it was an Amazon deal of the day, we feel like we've already got out money out of it." —Melissa M HughesPrice: $149.99 (originally $219.99).

I replaced my laptop with the Galaxy Z Fold 7 — here's what happened
There is a lot to love about some of the best foldable phones, but there's no denying that they're pricey. That goes double for the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7, which costs a whopping $2,000. That's more than some of the best laptops, so you would hope that it could replace them, right? In concept, it should be possible to replace your laptop with a Samsung phone thanks to Samsung DeX. If you've never heard of DeX, it essentially allows you to connect your phone with an external display like a monitor or TV, essentially turning your phone into a mini PC. I've never tried the feature, so I thought I would try replacing my work laptop for a day to see how it all worked out. Here are some of the ground rules I set myself: I would try the phone with both a connected keyboard and mouse, and without them to see which is ideal. I also made sure to write at least one piece of news while using the feature; in this case, it was a story about the Galaxy S26 Ultra reusing the same battery as last year's Galaxy S25 Ultra. So, with my parameters set, let's get into how my morning went. Spoiler: it wasn't great. Honestly, setting up the phone with my monitor was amazingly easy, as I only really had to connect the phone. In my case, I have a pretty ancient monitor, so I needed a USB-C hub with an HDMI connection, which also has USB ports for the keyboard and mouse. All I needed to do was plug them all in and I was good to go. Saying that, I did have one issue. For the most part, I had to use the app versions of certain services like Slack and Google Drive. This led to some complications, primarily with the layout of Slack and the ease of sharing documents via Google Drive. Admittedly, this was more down to my own developed habits, rather than a major issue with Samsung DeX. I can only imagine that this would get easier throughout the morning, and it did. Unfortunately, I had more issues when it came to actually using the phone for my task. Initially, there was no real problem, but the minute I ditched my USB keyboard and mouse, I hit a real wall. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. When it comes to using the phone as a mouse, it technically makes sense. Essentially, you can use the entire screen, which is separated into four quadrants. You can move your finger and tap where you please, and the screen can be split so that you can use the keyboard as well. However, the phone can only really face one way when you try to use it as a mouse. So if the phone is facing a different way, and you move your finger right, the cursor will go down instead. The only indication you have is the small buttons on the side, which are easy to miss when you're looking at the larger screen. Once I figured out the mouse, it was down to figuring out the keyboard and wow, does the keyboard suck. If you have never used the Samsung keyboard before, let me paint you a picture of how it looks. You have your basic QWERTY layout, but with a large gap down the middle that also cuts the space bar in half. Then, below that is the bar that contains all your quick navigation tools. Now, despite the Galaxy Z Fold 7 being bigger than the Galaxy Z Fold 6, this is not a keyboard that you can comfortably use, unless you have a doll's hands. There's no touch typing here; instead, I found myself using two fingers to slowly press the keys like your tech-illiterate aunt. Not only is it uncomfortable to use, but the placement of the navigation buttons becomes a real nightmare. I constantly found myself slowly getting into a flow when it came to typing, only to accidentally brush the home button and lose the keyboard. To say it was infuriating is an understatement. Another problem that soon appeared had to do with just how much battery the phone consumed in this mode. Now, my USB hub does have a charging port, but I found that my phone was constantly losing battery, even when the charger was attached to the hub. In the end, I had to constantly disconnect the phone and charge it for a time, which took up more of my morning than I would like. Speaking of the port, there is a bit of an issue with where it is placed and what that means for balance. In my experience using the Z Fold 7, I found the best way to set it up on the desk was in the L shape, as it allowed me to type without overshooting as much and hitting the mouse section of the screen. However, to make sure the phone was balanced, I needed to place the camera side up, and that side of the phone is also where the USB-C port is. So, I had to choose between either a wobbly keyboard by having the cameras on the table, or suffer a constant threat of the phone tipping over. Here's the thing: using the Galaxy Z Fold 7 as a PC is entirely possible with Samsung DeX, so long as you have a Keyboard and mouse. However, this is where my biggest issue with the idea rears its ugly head. In reality, if I have to carry the phone, keyboard and mouse, then I might as well use a laptop instead. After all, they come with all of these things included, as well as the browser versions of the apps. As such, I think this is a feature that you'll use to watch YouTube on your bigger TV, which, let's be honest, the best smart TVs can do better. It has its purpose, but you shouldn't buy one for that reason alone. However, I am always happy to hear other people's opinions, so let me know if you're a stalwart DeX user, or if you tried it and hated it.
