Every year for the past seven years, I've covered Amazon Prime Day by spending the two-day period looking for the very best tech deals. My eyes have widened quite a few times already this year seeing some of the greatest discounts on desireable devices that I've ever seen. But as I've learned from covering Prime Day multiple times, just because something is reliable and a good deal doesn't mean I'll actually get my money's worth from it.
This year, I've decided to do something a little different. Being a writer and reviewer, I've had the chance to try out a ton of tech in the last few years and I've come to rely on some of the best devices out there. Out of everything on sale right now, these are the seven things that I absolutely wouldn't want to be without. And yes, they all have Prime Day deals going on right now.

I used to review robot vacuums for a living and whenever someone asks me what brand to get I always tell them Roborock. These reliable vacuums are powerful enough to clean up after my messy cats and dog and do so by mapping my house and leaving perfect vacuum lines.
When I did my Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra review, I talked about how much I love this robot vacuum and empty station combo since they make it so I hardly have to do anything to keep my house clean. After each cleaning, the vacuum empties its debris into the station and I only have to empty the station about once a month, which is a lot better for my allergies than emptying it every day. It also can empty the water tank and refill it as long as there is enough water in the station's reserves. What's more, the Robrock S7's object detection means I don't have to constantly monitor it like some other robot vacuums out there because I know it can get around larger items like shoes, dog toys, and blankets without sucking them up and causing problems.
Without the Roborock S7, my home wouldn't look nearly as clean as it does. Gone are the balls of dog fur that used to gather in the corners. The floors around my cat boxes stay clean even though my cats like to throw litter around like confetti. I have the Roborock S7 scheduled to clean every morning when everyone is away and I always come out to perfect vacuum lines. It's a very special kind of happiness.
On average, I probably spend at least three nights a week online playing multiplayers with my friends and I've learned that the key to good teamwork is communication. This is best achieved by having one of the best gaming headsets that actually has a decent microphone such as my beloved HyperX Cloud 2.
Obviously, this isn't the latest version of HyperX's gaming headset as you can see from my HyperX Cloud 3 review. However, I absolutely love his gaming accessory and still prefer to use it when PC gaming or console gaming. It has a very comfortable fit and is one of the few low-priced headset that actually has a good microphone. I absolutely hate it when I'm playing with friends online only to learn that my voice is cutting out or coming through with crackling static, but that doesn't happen with the HyperX Cloud 2 headset.
I'm a big multitasker who has traditionally always worked with three monitors connected to my PC. However, doing the Dell UltraSharp 49 Curved Monitor review earlier this year opened my eyes and made me switch from my multi-monitor setup to just using this ultrawide one. I love how narrowing down to just one monitor has freed up so much room on my desk. Making this switch is also what helped me realize that the best way to play Diablo 4 is with an ultrawide monitor since it allows me to see so much more at once.
Due to the way that my house was built, my Wi-Fi was often spotty in various parts of the house when I moved in. That is until I purchased this Wi-Fi 6 extender system. Now, I and my guests never have a problem connecting to the Wi-Fi signal which extends to every room and is easily connected to in my yard as well. They also work very well with TP-Link HomeShield to monitor the security of any device on the network.
Another thing I love about these extenders is that I constantly forget that we even have them set up around the house because they are so minimal looking and don't draw attention to themselves. They just work and make it so I never have to worry about my Wi-Fi connection.
Last summer, I went on vacation to attend a family reunion. However, my usual pet sitter was busy and I couldn't find anyone who could check on my cats while I was away. Since I wasn't going to be gone too long, I decided to grab this automatic pet feeder. I've liked it so much that I've continued to use it everyday since coming back. It has a small LCD screen with a clock and buttons that allow me to schedule up to four meals per day.
I love playing my favorite PC games on my Steam Deck and ROG Ally, but sometimes I want to connect the device to my TV or computer monitor which is where this dock comes in handy. As I talked about in my ROG Ally review, the device doesn't have the best battery, so being able to play while plugged in to the JSAUX dock is also a way to better appreciate the handheld.
I've said this before, but I absolutely love my LG C2 OLED 4K TV and recommend it over the newer version since it works just as well but saves you money. This display handles game visuals so beautifully with a vibrant range of colors and true black that show off even the darkest scenes with plenty of detail. It absolutely changed my gaming experience when we swapped out our old TV for this OLED one. If you're looking for a good TV deal this Prime Day, I really cannot recommend this one enough.
The best Prime Day deals for things you'll actually use
Undoubtedly, the thing that I use the most out of everything on this list is the Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra. But it doesn't even feel like I use it all that often because it turns on at the time I've scheduled and keeps my house clean without me having to interact with it too much. Of course, having an auto-empty station means I only have to empty the debris bin about once a month rather than every day. I absolutely love knowing that its object detection will prevent it from destroying my belongings. Plus, coming home to perfect vacuum lines in my living room brings a really special kind of peace. It's powerful enough to pull up dog fur, kitty litter, and kibble from my carpets and floor. Plus, if someone makes a mess, I can send the Robrock S7 to a specific spot and it will clean the area so I don't have to.
Aside from my beloved robot vacuum, the thing I use the most is my Dell UltraSharp 49 Curved Monitor. This beast of a display allows me to multitask very efficiently without cluttering up my desk with multiple monitors. I love its color range and the contrast ratio which shows off anything on screen to beautiful effect.
Lastly, but certainly not least. I cannot recommend my LG C2 OLED 4K evo TV enough. When we first swapped this out for our old TV, I couldn't get over how much better all of my game visuals looked. It offers true black and vibrant colors that make any scene stand out, even darker ones where some details could get lost on lesser TVs. It isn't the latest model, but it has everything you need for Xbox Series X or PS5 gaming. Not to mention, being an older model helps reduce the price a bit.
