In anticipation of Amazon Prime Big Deal Days’ second round of 48-hour deals, which ends today, October 11, we took a look back to see what exactly you’ve turned to the e-tailer giant for over the last year or so. And here’s what we found: While some of you jumped on the design-forward hidden gems and furniture brands we dug up (who else is still shocked Kartell’s Componibili storage units can ship in two days with a Prime membership?), many tapped the massive marketplace for what most people rely on Amazon for: the basics. You know, the crazy-budget (as in, “Is this really the price?” affordable) home goods; influencer-approved decor and cleaning supplies; and last-minute unique gifts. Dip into the viral hits and deals that made our list of Amazon Prime Day bestsellers, then hit “add to cart” yourself.
45% Off Alessi Big Love Ice Cream Spoons, Set of 4
A runaway favorite from our last-minute Valentine’s Day gift guide, Alessi’s sweet heart-shaped ice cream spoons are available for nearly half off right now—making them top-tier fodder for our Amazon Prime Day bestsellers list. We recommend snapping up the stainless steel set as unique gifting material ahead of the impending holiday season.
49% Off Simple Designs Pack of Mini Ceramic Lamps
As seen in: Mini Table Lamps Are the Ticket to a Cozy Glow During Wintertime
When it comes to pint-size lamps, Domino readers prefer affordable styles over pricier pieces (Flos’s Bellhop comes to mind), so we just had to spotlight the fact that this bestseller from January is once again on sale—but this time on Amazon. In fact, it’s 49% off for Prime Day, which means you can scoop up a pair of the monochromatic minis for roughly $20—just $10 apiece, which is even cheaper than the previously featured discount. “I’ve been on the hunt for a small, inexpensive but not cheap-looking pair of lamps to sit on both ends of my desk,” one reviewer writes. “These are perfect.” While we love the all-black look, these ceramic cuties come in a variety of colorways (including cheery chartreuse and reddish-orange, though neither are as greatly discounted) adorned with a matching fabric shade.
20% Off Set of Two La Jolie Muse Outdoor Planters
As seen in: A Set of $42 Indestructible Amazon Planters Top This Textile Designer’s Backyard Must-Haves
Sometimes thriving greenery needs more than the right amount of light, water, and nutrients—we’re talking about an above-average vessel. If you don’t want to worry about root rot or cracking throughout the seasons, these puppies come with the stamp of approval from Eskayel’s founder, Shanan Campanaro. And her word on them being indestructible was good enough for Domino readers, even though these also come backed by 8,000-plus reviewers on Amazon. We’d bet these speckled ceramics will once again become a bestseller thanks to the fact that they’re now 20% off, dipping the price down for a pair to $36.
32% Off Jennifer Taylor Home Yolanda Round Ottoman
As seen in: The Best Halloween Decor Is Spooky and Stylish All at Once
Not all Halloween decorations have to go bump in the night—we’re of the mindset that the best are more chic than cheesy, and Domino readers seem to agree. After rounding up an assortment of tabletop, front-door must-haves, furniture, lights, and more festive finds to get your home in the holiday spirit, this ottoman quickly became a favorite. And we love it, too, even more so when it’s on sale. The velvet cushion offers a whimsical, Victorian-esque touch with its fringed details. In context with other gothic elements, it’ll feel positively witchy. But we hope readers saw the longevity of this one because as soon as October 31 passes, it’ll look positively luxurious as a footstool in a reading room or to have extra seating on hand near the holidays. Reviewers confirm it’s lightweight enough to move around yet still sturdy.
20% Off Lomi Electric Composter
As seen in: I Tested a Countertop Composter That Makes Ready-to-Use Soil Literally Overnight
Composting, if you don’t have the right equipment, can quickly feel like a cumbersome chore. Even more so if you happen to live in a small space or a city sans a backyard. Not having a proper place to house your food scraps can get stinky—fast. Readers love Lomi not only for its ability to transform waste into usable fertilizer within hours thanks to its electricity-powered process, but also the fact that its inner basket is dishwasher-safe (easy upkeep for the win!) and small enough to sit out on a counter—just 10-by-7.5-by-7.7 inches. We saved the best part for last: It’s now $100 off.
34% Off Martha Stewart 10-Piece Stainless Steel Set
As seen in: Martha Stewart’s New Amazon Store Includes the Perfect Pan for Pasta
In February, we announced that Martha Stewart was adding her own storefront to Amazon. It is outfitted with thousands of products, but readers were most drawn to her 18/8 stainless steel set of pots and pans. Packed with all the tools needed to bring her one-pan pasta dish to life, we’re all fans of the fact that these are equipped with interior fill lines for easy measuring and are oven- and broiler-safe to 500 degrees Fahrenheit. And right now, this goes-with-anything bundle of cookware is less than $100.
15% Off Stone & Beam Westview Down-Filled Love Seat
As seen in: The 13 Best Sofa Deals on Sectionals, Love Seats, and More
If you’re on the lookout for an in-house Amazon brand you can trust, Stone & Beam is officially our new favorite, especially for sofas and love seats. This deep two-seater is a prime example of its furniture nailing the trifecta of trendy, quality, and affordability. It’s a practical purchase, too. The cushion covers are removable and machine washable, so you don’t have to feel guilty about going with the creamy white chenille-like polyester fabric. A combination of solid wood and feather fill, we still can’t believe that its ongoing 15% off promotion knocks it down in price to under $600.
23% Off Memories of Home by Heidi Caillier
As seen in: San Francisco’s Famous Gloom Gave This Designer No Choice But to Embrace the Darkness
Domino readers were clearly ecstatic to have Seattle-based designer Heidi Caillier’s pattern-on-pattern playbook in their hands, and we’re now just as excited to share that the Memories of Home is 23% off during Prime Day. We had spotlighted an excerpt from the book, specifically a dreary San Francisco home the designer was able to transform into something that looked more like it belonged across the pond in England’s Cotswolds. A picture-perfect pairing of stunning photography and well-written walk-throughs, this is the sort of coffee-table book that’s more than just a pretty face. It’s filled with pages of inspiration.
18% Off Zinus Aidan Sling Chair
As seen in: In Your Amazon Cart: A Sleek, Oversize Sling Chair for Under $150
Shortly after featuring this marshmallowy Amazon number, it quickly became a September bestseller. We’re familiar with Zinus, the brand behind some of the best soft mattresses and solid wood bed frames (one of its platform styles, in fact, happens to be 16% off right now!) but had no idea it also offered chic sling-style seating. There’s a lot to admire about this cushy seat, from the square modern metal frame to the firm yet cozy shredded foam cushion that multiple reviewers confirm rarely looses it shape (and if it does, all it needs is a good shake). It’s the sort of furniture that dominates in a room, thanks to its roomy 30-by-30-inch seat—a size that took a few shoppers by surprise (in a good way). So if you’re looking for a chair to sprawl out on, this is your best bet, especially since it’s still 18% off.
20% Off Amazon Plug-In Wall Sconces
As seen in: This Under-$100 Pair of Plug-In Sconces Proves Visible Cords Can Be Cool
We’re usually of the mindset that overhead lighting is obtrusive, but there’s only so much room for table or floor lamps. In those instances, don’t rule out walls as a source of ambient lighting. This plug-in duo means you can skip the hardwiring but still get in on the trend. Another September bestseller, this powder-coated set comes in a variety of finishes currently ranging in price from $67 to $100, thanks to this year’s second iteration of Prime Day and an $8 coupon. Domino readers are already plenty taken with its braided cord and easy install, aside from its chic simplicity, of course. One reviewer on Amazon even writes, “The pictures don’t do these justice.”
25% Off BeautyPeak Full-Length Mirror
As seen in: Step Inside RHONY Star Brynn Whitfield’s Never-Before-Seen West Village Apartment
This number is propped up against the wall of Real Housewives of New York City star Brynn Whitfield’s bedroom in her Manhattan apartment, and you’d never guess the brass frame was an under-$100 Amazon find. But guess what? During Prime Day, it’s just $82. Reviewers rave over its luxurious simplicity, sturdy feel (it weighs 24 pounds!), and subtly curved corners that soften its rectangular silhouette. But we’re convinced it’s the budget-friendly price tag that truly made it a bestseller back in August. And right now its 64-by-21-inch size is 25% off.
21% Off Brightech Mason Arc Floor Lamp
As seen in: That Arched Floor Lamp in Bravo Star Brynn Whitfield’s Home Is Less Than $200 Right Now
Another inexpensive, design-forward find from Whitfield’s West Village home that Domino readers loved and happens to be a part of the Prime Day promos is this arched floor lamp. The popular Brightech style is now 21% off at the mass e-tailer (and eligible for an additional 5% off coupon), but we would’ve guessed it would retail for $500. In other words, it looks far more expensive than it actually is. Appearances aside, this affordable floor lamp is also revered by 2,000-plus reviewers for being “solidly built,” “big and handsome,” and “great quality,” down to its genuine marble base. Other bonuses worth noting: It ships with a lightbulb and is backed by a three-year warranty.
16% Off Armless Office Desk Chair by Emiah
As seen in: This Amazon Desk Chair Is TikTok Famous for One Simple Reason
This wouldn’t be an Amazon Prime Day bestsellers’ list without the TikTok-famous crisscross-applesauce chair. From the moment this cushy office seat first went viral in 2022, you’ve continued to buy it en masse, even though it teeters in and out of stock. It may very well be your top buy in all of 2023, too. It’s a true Amazon win: high quality for the price, often on sale, sporting a trendy armless silhouette (that’s puffy and pillowy), and available in a creamy white. The real kicker? The 25.5-inch roomy seat means you can comfortably sit “crisscross applesauce” while responding to emails from home. You can currently attach an $11 coupon to get in on the trend for less. Or save more by going for a look-alike—the Pukami version is 15% off, and the channel-tufted look is 20% off.
40% Off Solar Outdoor Hanging Lights
As seen in: You Can Leave These Waterproof Solar Lanterns Hanging by the Pool All Summer Long
We knew we had to highlight these hanging solar lights as a top Amazon find after one reviewer wrote that they instantly transformed their backyard shed into an English pub. Okay, and the fact that shoppers have reported they’ve endured multiple winter storms and still lit up by day’s end. Clearly, you love these little luminaries as much as we do.
27% Off Meema Kitchen Towels
As seen in: The Best Kitchen Towels Pair Pretty Patterns With Ultra-Absorbent Materials
What can we say? You love our budget-friendly pick for the best kitchen towels. These striped cloths are pretty enough to leave out hanging from a drawer pull but hardy enough to soak up any spill caused by whipping up a weeknight meal. And now for less than $20 (the set is 27% off for Amazon Prime Day), you get two patterns in four rags made from upcycled cotton and denim, and they have a weightier feel versus your typical tea towel.
17% Off Amazon Brass Pharmacy Floor Lamp
As seen in: This $75 Amazon Lamp Is Almost Identical to the $700 Version
This brass pharmacy lamp has been a top seller ever since we first spotted it in YouTuber Kiva Brent’s home. Not only does it look far more expensive than it actually is, but as Brent explains in an Instagram Reel, it’s also a practical piece: It swings 360 degrees, has a built-in smart dimmer (simply hold down the switch to up the brightness), and can adjust from 47 to 55 inches in height. During Amazon Prime Day, it’s listed at the same affordable $75 price tag that first caught readers’ attention earlier this year.
47% Off Voweek Electric Spin Scrubber
As seen in: This DIYer-Backed Electric Scrubber Spins, Extends, and Gets Into Every Nook and Cranny
After we watched DIYer Elena Lohse of This House 5000 tackle cleaning her entire bathroom with this extendable gadget, we had to share our findings with the rest of the Domino universe who had yet to see her Instagram Reel that garnered 17,000-plus likes alone. Lohse’s and our choice of the white is nearly half off right now for Amazon Prime Day.
15% Off Amazon Basics Rubber-Coated Plastic Hangers
As seen in: I’m a Professional Organizer—Here’s Why I Stopped Using Velvet Hangers in My Closet
After you got word that a pro organizer ditched the velvet fad for rubber, this 50-pack quickly sold out. And then you bought up the next best thing: Songmics’s version. Both are covered in a recyclable material that you can use to air-dry wet laundry and no longer deal with the mysterious appearance of fuzzies on your clothes. “I love these hangers! They hold clothes and yet are easy to remove without a struggle. Their slim design is also very space saving. I use them in every closet in my house,” one reviewer writes.
25% Off Grout Pen White Tile Painter Marker
As seen in: This $9 Amazon Find Made My Grimy Rental Shower Look Good as New
For just $9, you can fix a permanently stained, grimy tile situation without having to worry about intense scrubbing or handling strangely named chemicals. This paint pen has sold and sold ever since our style editor, Julia Stevens, shared how she used it to fix up her rental bathroom without having to call up her super. It took Stevens no more than 15 minutes to complete the job, and the pen comes in more than just the classic white (there are 11 other hues to choose from).
37% Off ChomChom Pet Hair Remover
As seen in: One of Drew Barrymore’s Favorite Cleaning Tools Is 20% Off for Amazon Pet Day
Anything recommended by Drew Barrymore is practically a shoo-in Domino bestseller. Example A: this ingenious gadget that attracts pet hair like a moth to a flame. When it recently went on sale for Amazon Pet Day, it once again accumulated in your carts just as it did back in 2022 when the talk show host first gave it her official stamp of approval. And the hype continues. It now has 142,000-plus reviews explaining in detail its “life-changing” features. Our favorite quick quip: “It picks up hair the vacuum never could.”
$6 Off Kurala 5-by-8 Reversible Plastic Patio Area Rug
As seen in: This $34 Amazon Checkerboard Rug Makes Picnic and Patio Season Feel Like It’s Already Here
You’re just as much Team Checks as we are, as this top-selling reversible rug proves. While we personally think it makes for a great focal point on a porch or patio, it’s also lightweight enough to unfurl at the park or camping site (just one pound!). As we noted in our original review, we think its biggest selling point came by way of a Floridian buyer who wrote it held up just fine in the Southern state’s high temps and storms. Already affordably priced, you can take an additional $6 off this Prime Day with an available coupon.
60% Off Chris Loves Julia x Loloi Jules Terracotta Rug
As seen in: Our List of the Best Kitchen Rugs Includes a Vintage-Looking Runner That’s on Sale for $23
The vintage-looking headliner in our buyer’s guide to the best kitchen rugs was the brainchild of a Chris Loves Julia and Loloi collaboration. The power-loomed polypropylene floor covering is engineered to be stain- and fade-resistant, which is why you can keep it in front of the sink and underneath your counters. “I don’t think I’ve ever written an Amazon review, but I’m too obsessed with this rug not to,” writes one shopper. “I was nervous as to the quality and what it would look like in person (Would the terracotta be too pink? Would the ‘faded’ spots be too white?), but it’s stunning.” It’s also less than $100, to boot, and 64% off for Prime Day.
