We're sure you're familiar with how fantastic AirPods are — but if you'd like a refresher, we're here to help. These top-selling earbuds have hundreds of thousands of five-star ratings, thanks to their clear, rich sound and convenient cord-free design. Plus, they're easy to use and connect to any of your other Apple devices. 

More than 51,000 Walmart shoppers give them a five-star rating. One fan explained: "My original AirPods 2nd generation lasted me about three years before the mic stopped working. ... I purchased the AirPod Pros, but I didn't like the fit in my ear. Saw these on sale and decided to purchase again. These have fit my ears the best and I like the sound. I use while cleaning the house and they don't fall out."

When was the last time you cleaned your dishwasher? Never? Well, scoop up these handy tablets while they're on sale. These tablets clean out hard water, lime scale, grime, grease, stains and more, and deodorize your machine. And all you have to do is toss one in and run a regular dishwashing cycle. 

"Impressively effective," said one user. "This was such an easy item to use. We had mold in our dishwasher — a lot of pink I couldn’t get off. I followed the directions and put one tab in the detergent container and the one at the bottom of the machine, ran a regular cycle with an empty washer. It cleaned everything. No more pink mold. Impressive cleaning power and so easy to use. Highly recommend this product. I will buy their washing machine cleaner next."

Watch out, dirt! This top-seller with over 5,400 five-star fans is a powerhouse that swivels and swerves like an athlete, sucking up dirt, hair and dust (shout-out to the hardworking HEPA filter). Use the handheld nozzle to attack upholstery, stairs and curtains.

"I am a professional house cleaner, and I've had my eye on this vacuum for months. Finally made the dive and purchased it, and I'm so happy I did," said one person. "The suction is great and adjustable. I like that you can detach the collection compartment and carry it to use it on the stairs. That was a big selling point for me."

This set of six knives can help you dice veggies, chop fruit, slice bread and cut through thick meats with ease. It's fun to look at and comes with color-coded blade guards, a nice touch if you like to keep your knives in a drawer instead of out on the counter.

The Shark VacMop is an all-in-one cleaning tool that can suck up dry debris while mopping the wet stuff. The handle has two triggers — one for vacuum suction and one for the spray mop. This one comes with two disposable pads, which can be removed by pressing a release button on the device. (No need to touch them after they're dirty!) You can replace them for just $1 a pop.

"I love this vacmop!" said one buyer. "I was skeptical at first, not thinking it would actually work as well as everyone has said, but it does! ... It's nice to use for crumbs, hair, a spill, anything! It is very convenient. It picks up well and mops pretty good too!"

Alert! KitchenAid's famous tilt-head stand mixer is $100 off in several colors. The size is perfect for small or large batches — you can use it to make up to nine dozen cookies in one go. If you're hosting and baking this holiday season, grab the crème de la crème of stand mixers while it's on sale.

"I did a lot of research and please trust me, every other item I read about compared itself to KitchenAid. So, I bit the bullet and bought one," said one well-researched shopper. "It is strong, very quiet and doesn't move. Did I say quiet?! I should have bought one years and years ago."

The price is right on these water-resistant shearling boots! They're high-quality, comfortable and a fraction of the cost of another name brand (you know the ones). Right now, you can get a pair for over half off in a range of colors at Amazon. 

"I love these boots!" said one shopper. "Great for wearing around the house. The thick, cozy shearling hugs my toes! Sturdy sole makes outdoor wear possible too. I liked these boots so much that I ordered a second pair in a different color."

The Amazon Fire HD 10 costs about a quarter of what you'd pay for the equivalent Apple iPad. This model, released only last year, is 25% faster than its predecessor, weighs an ounce or so less and has a clear camera for video calling. Even better, it's on sale for its lowest price since Black Friday. 

"For the price, you get great quality and the picture is so crisp and clear!" said one of the 7,000 five-star reviewers. "Audio is loud and good. The battery lasts all day long. [The] charger it comes with charges it up to full battery in like an hour! Only downside is there's no Google Play store, only an Amazon store, but it still has relevant useful apps I enjoy using, like YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, Spotify, Candy Crush, TikTok and more."

This 6-quart air fryer has racked up nearly 4,000 five-star reviews at Amazon — where it's currently marked down to its lowest price yet. It can air-fry, bake, roast, broil, dehydrate, reheat, cook from frozen, proof bread and keep food warm. 

I have this air fryer. I actually got rid of my microwave because, with all of Cosori's functions, I no longer needed it. Plus, this cooks food fast and keeps things crispy. Put it in Turbo mode and you can have dinner ready in under 15 minutes. I have used it to roast a whole chicken, reheat leftovers, broil steaks, air-fry chicken wings and fries, and dehydrate apple slices to make "chips" for a simple, healthy snack.

These aren't your old-school plastic storage containers. These bin-bag hybrids are durable and structured enough to keep contents safe and protected. A transparent window lets you see what's inside. And they're stackable, so they help you make the most of every square foot. Each bag has a storage capacity of 60 liters — plenty of room for off-season clothing, fluffy bedding, piles of random accessories and more.

"I was very surprised by how this fabric storage container holds its shape. I was also surprised at how much it holds," said a happy reviewer. "I used them to store blankets, beach towels and comforters. They also stack nicely. I really like that the sides are clear so you can see inside without opening them."
