Henckels has been crafting knives for over a century, so the brand knows a thing or two about what makes a quality set.

Retinol isn’t just for your face — the rest of your body deserves its benefits too!

Layering pieces are essential for the complicated weather of the end-of-summer’s bleed into early fall.

Never mind that it’s a previous-generation model: iPads hold their value, and this iteration is one of the best tablets you can buy, period — especially at this heavily discounted price. A price break of $130 is significant, but that markdown is even more eye-catching when you consider this model comes with 64GB of storage. This is the absolute lowest price on record for the 9th Generation iPad — we highly recommend grabbing it while it’s 40% off. 

Bonus: There are more juicy Apple Labor Day sales where that came from.

I used to bake for a living, and my trusty KitchenAid stand mixer is my go-to appliance. Cake batters, cookie doughs, breads, frostings, meringues — you name it, I’ve probably made it using this mighty machine.

At 4.5 quarts, this No. 1 bestseller can hold enough dough to make up to eight dozen cookies at a time, though it won’t take up much room in your kitchen. Oh, and you’ll get a beater, dough hook and whisk attachments for making practically any baked good under the sun.

This powerful 7-pounder tackles pet hair and crumbs like it’s nothing, according to our resident vacuum tester, Kristin Granero. She awarded it the title of “best cordless stick vacuum” in her roundup, saying it “hit the sweet spot in our testing for a sleek vacuum that offers solid performance, along with some snazzy features, at a competitive price.”

She went on to praise its narrow brush head that “swivels like a dream” and described it as “lightweight” and “incredibly quiet — enough that it probably wouldn’t wake a sleeping baby.” You’ll be able to see dirt hiding in dark spaces, thanks to its headlights, and it even has a dust sensor that’ll automatically adjust the power depending on how much extra cleaning oomph is required. As for suction? Granero called it “superb,” saying it was a champ at “mowing down faux fur, sand, kitty litter, rice and cereal with ease.” It’s only ever dipped lower than its current price during Prime Day.
