Surprise! It’s that time again … Amazon brought Prime Day back in JUNE this year. Yep, that’s right. Amazon Prime Day(s) is happening June 21-22, 2021. This is not a drill!
I’ll be updating this page real-time as I find the best Prime Day deals for home (and family). Anything you want me to look for, specifically, to save you time looking through the endless pages of sales? Let me know by emailing [email protected] I love the thrill of the hunt, so I’ll be on it!

NOTE: Please remember that Amazon changes its prices all the time, without notice, and many of these deals will be “lightning deals” that are available for only a short time during the day.
I’ve begun updating this page with current 2021 Prime Day deals as I discover them. Bookmark this page and check back regularly. In the case of many deals, their discount will be for a limited time, so please double-check all deals for yourself when you see them.
What is Amazon Prime Day and How Does it Work?
What is Amazon Prime Day?
Amazon Prime Day is a crazy-fast two day sale for Prime members only. It’s a lot like Black Friday … but often better.
Do I need to be an Amazon Prime Member to get these sale prices?
Yes, you DO need to be a Prime member to get the sale prices.
The good news is you can give a try for 30 days and get all signed up in advance HERE to take advantage of the sale. Don’t feel like it will work for you long-term? No worries. Just cancel your membership before the renewal date is up.
In addition to taking advantage of Prime Days, you’ll also be able to access everything else Prime has to offer during your trial period (free 2-day shipping on many items is only one of the many benefits.)
When is the sale? And how long will be going?
The sale goes on for two days only, from June 21-22, 2021. However, there are many special pre-Prime Day offers that will be leading up to the official date, so check back often.
How does the sale work?
The sale runs for just two days, it happens rapid-fire, and quite frankly? It’s overwhelming—drinking from the firehose level stuff—and it can be tough to know if you’re actually getting a good deal. That’s why I’ll be combing through the thousands of deals for the best Prime Day deals for home, so you don’t have to deal with that mess!
Deals go live on a daily or hourly basis. Some deals are considered “lightning deals” and are only available at a certain time and end when a deal is fully claimed.
What is a Lightning Deal?
Lightning deals go live on an hourly basis and run on a timer for a limited number of sales eligible for that price. They are only available at a certain time and end when a deal is fully claimed.
Are the sale items all good deals?
I’ll be honest: some of the sales are NOT a good buy in my opinion. Sometimes they will mark up a price and then “put it on sale” just for Prime Day. (Not cool.) Sometimes the items are unknown brands. Some are really good imitations of name-brand products that work just as well (kind of like how you can buy generic ibuprofen and it does the job and costs less than the name brand.)
Other times, those are low-quality products with sketchy reviews.
So I like to do the research work for you and either only promote items I already know and love, or share categories of items that name brand doesn’t matter so much. And if I’m in doubt, and haven’t used a specific item myself, I’ll check out the reviews and only put up items that meet my personal standards. Cool? Cool.
Why are you hosting this deals page?
As an Amazon Associate, I earn a commission on qualifying sales, which helps keep this blog running. (What does and does not qualify is all up to Amazon.)
Basically, if you click on any of the links on this page and decide to purchase something right then and there, Amazon shares some of that sale with me, but it doesn’t cost a cent more to you for that to happen. So you save money and you support this blog, too! Win-win.
What do I need to know about Amazon Prime Day?
Know what you’re looking to buy and look in advance for upcoming deals.
Sales go fast, so it’s good to have an idea of what you are looking for on the sales page. Better yet, look for “upcoming deals” on the Amazon Prime Day page and put an item in your cart in advance so you’re ready to go when the timer starts.
Act fast! Sales are often live for a very limited time during Prime Day.
Sales on Prime Day tend to go FAST.
My big tips would be to know what you’re looking for, grab the lightning deals and check out immediately for each one so you don’t miss out.
Make use of the “waitlist” option on deals.
Make use of the waitlist option. You never know if somebody will change their mind last minute at checkout or cancel an order and suddenly open up a spot you can grab if you’re on the waitlist.
Check your wishlists!
Have any wishlists on Amazon? Great! Glance through them to see if any of your favorite items are on sale during Prime Day.
Turn on notifications.
There are detailed (visual) instructions on turning on your notifications HERE so you don’t miss the sales you’ve had an eye on.
Sign up for a Honey Gold account and install its Chrome extension.
You’ll see at a glance if an item you are looking at is ACTUALLY a good deal or not. Sometimes, sellers jack up the price right before putting it “on sale.” Not cool. Honey Gold will catch this for you and alert you of recent price increases or decreases on an item, and provide a price history for comparison. You can sign up for Honey HERE.
I’ll be updating the Prime Day deals for your home on this page as I discover them. Check back often!
Please note that I have not personally used every item on this list, although I have done my best to either list products I have used or I know have a good reputation. When I’m not sure about an item, I go and look at how many positive reviews it has and select a deal that way.
(p.s. Due to how fast deals come and go for Prime Day, this list may not have the most up-to-date information. Always double-check to see if the deal is still in effect if you are interested in an item!)
What Are the Best Prime Day Deals for Home?
Home
Ring Alarm 5-piece kit – Currently at its lowest price in over half a year (possibly ever), if you’re in the market for an alarm system for your home.
Instant Pot Duo Plus 6 Quart 9-in-1 Electric Pressure Cooker – My friend says she’s cooked a chicken from frozen using her Instant Pot. I haven’t been so brave yet, but it was the comment that convinced me to buy an Instant Pot. I mean, I always forget to thaw my meat in time for making dinner! And right now it’s at its lowest price in the last 120 days.
Blueair Blue Pure 211+ Air Purifier – I don’t own one (yet) but I’ve heard really good things and it’s on my own personal wishlist. And it just hit the lowest price in at least four months!
Amazon Firestick – A GREAT price (appears to be about half off at time of writing) on my favorite way to watch TV … especially since we bring ours with us on trips so our son always can watch his shows without interruption (and who am I kidding? Us, too!) Lifesaver during summer vacation. No shame. Just sayin’.
Instant Vortex Plus 7-in-1 Air Fryer Oven – No joke, we use ours daily. (Mostly for chicken nuggets.) I have legit even brought it with us to an AirBnB we stayed at while closing on our home. We love it THAT much. It saves me time every day, and it’s a good deal right now!
Echo Show 5 – I have to admit, these are pretty cool. My dad has one and it shows recipes and news headlines and I always learn something new, just walking in his house.
Shark AV1010AE IQ Robot Vacuum with XL Self-Empty Base – I don’t own this brand or model, but I do love my robot vacuum, and this one even empties itself. Just dropped to its lowest price in 120 days, just shy of 50% off.
40 oz Copper Colored Watering Can – Metal Watering can with Long spout – glowing reviews and the lowest price in 60 days. Plus how cute is it?
Home Decor
Discounts on Rugs from Safavieh, nuLOOM, and More – I’ve seen up to 30% off in this selection, many of which are highly rated. (Image goes to that specific rug, but text link to the general rug Prime Day sale page.)
2 Pack 48 FT Outdoor String Lights Commercial Grade Weatherproof Strand 16 Edison Vintage Bulbs – We have similar lights my husband got for my birthday last year. I love them!
Cleaning
eCloth microfiber window cleaning set – LIGHTNING DEAL – If you’ve ever heard or Norwex, I’ve heard these are similar (but much more affordable). You can clean your windows with ONLY water with this set!
E-Cloth Starter Pack, Microfiber Cleaning Cloths, 5 Cloth Set – LIGHTNING DEAL, this set cleans a variety of surfaces with just water.
Amazon Basics Blue, White, and Yellow Microfiber Cleaning Cloth 12″x16″ – Pack of 24 – I believe I bought a different number pack of these, but I use them all the time for everyday cleaning!
Homitt Electric Spin Scrubber Power Brush Floor Scrubber, Cordless Shower Scrubber with Adjustable Extension Arm and 3 Replaceable Bathroom Scrubber Cleaning Brush Heads for Tub, Tile, Floor – LIGHTNING DEAL – Lowest price in 120 days. I’ve heard great things about this tool! And I’ve had my eye on it for myself, too. Reviews seem polarized (fair warning) with people who either LOVE it or HATE it. Just a heads’ up!
WilPoem New Zealand Nature Wool Dryer Balls – Fabric Softener Ball for Sensitive Skin – Helps Prevent Wrinkles and Reduces Static – Reusable 3000 Cycle Rating – (6 XL Pack) – Lowest price I can find on one of my favorite staples for my laundry routine … wool dryer balls. (They are also the favorite of my poodle, who likes to steal them and run off. So I need to get more, lol.)
Organizing and Storage
Amazon Basics Slim, Velvet, Non-Slip Clothes Suit Hangers, Black/Silver – Pack of 30 – Lowest price in months for matching hangers in your closet that instantly level-up organization and the aesthetic of a closet.
Rubbermaid Brilliance Storage 16-Piece Plastic Lids|BPA Free, Leak Proof Food Container – Great price drop, many good or better reviews. And most importantly – dishwasher safe! I’ve been looking for something like this for my pantry.
Large Cotton Rope Basket 15.8″x15.8″x13.8″ – Highly rated rope basket at a good discount. (Looks like the chief complaint is it is hard to get completely round again after shipping.)
Large Woven Natural Water Hyacinth Rectangular Storage Basket with inside Handle – A decent price drop for cute storage. I love a good water hyacinth basket, and this one is a good size for storage (15.10″Lx11.02″Wx7.87″H).
Large Collapsible Storage Bins (3 Pack, White & Grey) – I’d use these on the top shelf of a closet or in cube storage shelves in a child’s room.
Linen Fabric Storage Baskets with Drawstring Cover, Extra Large (3-Pack, Grey) – I love that these have drawstrings to close a bag-like top for storage, as well as sections for labels. However, I need to say these have not been rated and I have not used them personally.
6 Pack Stackable Wire Basket – Good ratings, great price (lowest on record since February), and super useful! (Top reviewers say they like to use them in their deep freezers for organization.)
Refrigerator Organizer Bins, Pantry Organization Drawers, 13.40”x8.65”x4.40” – Good ratings and good price. I use drawers similar to this to keep my deli meats and cheeses organized in my fridge. But be aware: I have yet to find any that are dishwasher safe.
Bamboo drawer dividers, 17-22″ – These got solid reviews and are at their lowest price in the past few months.
Open Storage Bins, Closet Shelf Organizer Bins, 3-Pack (11.1 x 7.9 x 3.8 in) – Clean lines, minimal aesthetic, and good reviews plus a solid price drop. I’d use these in my pantry or linen closet!
Lazy Susan – 2 Pack Round Plastic Clear Rotating Turntable, 9″ – Good reviews, lowest price in 120 days. I love using a clear turntable in my spice cabinet for easy access to larger spice or oil containers.
Clear Acrylic Containers for Bathroom (swabs, cotton balls, makeup), 3-pack (2) 11 Oz (1) 9 Oz – Nice price drop (around 20% off) and a couple of good reviews saying these are solid and easily opened with one hand. I wish there were more reviews, but otherwise a great find.
Magnetic Lint Bin – If you’re like me and get lazy with cleaning out the lint because you’d have to walk all the way to the kitchen to throw it out (#firstworldproblem) … here’s the solution for that problem! This is the exact item I purchased for my own home. It sticks right on the side of the dryer, so I always have a quick place to stash the lint. And it’s at a lower price than I paid, too!
Foldable Storage Bin, (Grey and White, Cube with Lid – 13 x 13 x 13-3 Pack) – I have these and LOVE them and now they’re having a rare sale! I first bought them for staging our home for sale last year, but have gotten many admiring comments about them. I love that they completely hide whatever you are storing. But be aware, they DO need to air out first before use.
3-Tier Acrylic Spice Rack (Expandable) – I have a similar item in my spice cupboard and LOVE it. Simply slide one side to the left or right to adjust the width needed. The Prime Day deal says it is the lowest price in 30 days, and it technically is, but that is somewhat deceiving. They raised the price recently (not cool) but then discounted it for Prime Day AND added an additional savings coupon, which, when applied does drop the price the lowest it has been recently.
Heavy-Duty Wrap-It Storage Straps, 28-inch (2 Pack) – Hook and Loop Garden Hose Hanger, Pool Hose Storage Organizer for Cords, Hoses, Tow Rope, Building Materials, RV and Garage Organization – great reviews and discount.
Kitchen Utensil Holder, 7.2″, Ceramic Utensil Crock – excellent reviews and a solid discount. Plus super cute!
8 Pack Glass Food Storage Containers, BPA Free and Leakproof – Excellent reviews and a solid discount on these meal prep containers.
Jewelry Box For Women Travel Jewelry Organizer – Another curious case (no pun intended) of a product that had its price raised for Prime Day, then discounted. But the addition of a bonus discount coupon to apply does take it lower than the last 30 days. Plus, it gets great reviews and has a charming minimalist vibe.
Jewelry Organizer Display Extra Tall Necklace Holder 3 Tier Jewelry Tree Stand (Carbonized Black) – Highly rated and cute jewelry organizer for on top of a dresser. I’ve been looking for something like this for my own bedroom.
Pull Out Cabinet Organizer, 2-Tier Under Sink Slide Out Kitchen Cabinet Storage Shelves with Sliding Storage Drawer for Cabinet – 12.6W x 16.5D x 13H – Requires at Least 13″ Cabinet Opening. Lowest price in months and good reviews. I like that it is double-decked and leaves room for the pipes under the sink, filling in the awkward space on the side to make use of it, too.
