Over 900 reviewers give this does-it-all vacuum five stars...and for good reason. Dirt and debris littering both hard floors and carpets are no match for the Hoover WindTunnel XL Pet Bagless Upright. It's got "Scatter Guard Technology" and an extra large dirt cup to capture as much mess in one go as possible. The brush head is adjustable to five different heights to tackle everything from bare floors to plush carpets.

As one pleased purchaser put it: "I was curious how it would do compared to my Dyson DC17 Animal vacuum. I was quite surprised after doing a thorough job with my Dyson that just a brief overview with the Hoover Wind Tunnel XL Pet collected as much as it did. Time to retire the Dyson." High praise at a low price.

Over $60 off a fancy French door air fryer

If you've used an air fryer before, you're privy to the delectably crispy exterior and perfectly moist interior it can give to most meats, veggies and even desserts. But the one downside many of these machines have is that users can't see their food as it cooks. Not so with the Chefman French Door Air Fryer + Oven! This baby has clear glass on the doors and an interior light to give you a front row seat to your feast as it cooks. Large enough for a full rotisserie chicken and just the right size to cook a meal for two, this 9-by-13-inch oven will become your go-to kitchen appliance.

One happy customer reports, "I finally found an appliance that can deliver on the elusive crispy zucchini chip. My kids are downing veggies now, thinking they are getting away with junk food." Indulge in this ultimate upgrade without the hefty price tag.

Getting healthy in the new year isn't just about eating well and exercising. It's also about keeping good posture, which affects the well-being of your entire body. This Yoyomax mesh office chair is built with a superior, ergonomic mid-back design and resilient mesh. Both features work together to align your spine and keep it in a natural position while you're seated. And that's especially great for anyone who works from home. The chair swivels and glides smoothly and quietly.

Save more than 40 percent right now on this home office must-have. "This chair is comparatively cheaper in terms of cost and offers all the benefits any luxury chair offers," wrote a five-star reviewer. "It has cushions, and back support is really good and has helped with my back pain."

Nearly $20 off this pre-seasoned cast iron Dutch oven

Lodge is well known for its century-old tradition of making quality cast iron cookware, and this heirloom-worthy piece is no exception. The cast iron finish of this five-quart Dutch oven makes it extremely durable and allows for equal heat distribution to cook your food more evenly. You can slow-cook savory stews or sear, sauté and simmer delectable entrees to feed the whole family. Use it in the oven, on a grill or over a campfire.

Take it from this five-star reviewer and don't wait: "Love, love, love my cast iron Dutch oven. This is my first piece of real cast iron and I'm loving all the foods that it can handle cooking. I can use the same Dutch oven for slow-cooking pot roast as I can use for baking artisan bread. As expected with cast iron, it has a very heavy construction, very solid. Very pleased with the purchase and definitely look forward to purchasing other pieces from Lodge to build my cast iron collection."

Need a laptop stand or a TV tray? How about a flexible surface that can fit about anywhere to provide the landing pad you need without taking up too much space? Well, look no further than this C-shaped sofa table! The unique shape allows it to curve around the arm of a sofa or side chair to provide a stable surface with a minimal footprint. Made of mixed materials (walnut-colored top and black metal base), it will work with a myriad of design styles. Opt for the wheeled version if you need yours to be extra mobile.

"We use this as a small desk in front of the couch. It is lightweight but very sturdy and slides out of the way under the seat part of the couch when not in use," one reviewer shared. Another said: "We've had this dark brown TV tray for four years now, and it still looks the same and is just as sturdy. For two years my husband and I put our plates on it and ate dinner at the same time while watching TV.... After years of commenting that a second one would be nice, I'm finally buying a second one."

A beautiful wooden cutting board, matching cheese knives with a modern metallic finish, slate blue silicone measuring cups and spoons, and even a ravioli cutter round out this collection.

All this for 20 bucks? That's just a dollar a piece! Reviewers confirm it's a good buy: "OMG — just darn cute, and it is filled with so much! My daughter stole it from me. After Christmas, I will order one for myself. The blue and gold look so rich."
