Amazon's secret home outlet saves you up to 65% on kitchen gear, vacuums and more

We all know that outlet shopping is a fabulous way to save a lot of money. But outlet shopping from the comfort of your couch? Now, that's a game changer. I mean, why get in the car and deal with frantic sale-seekers when Amazon Outlet exists? This online treasure trove is teeming with overstock deals that'll save you up to 65% on kitchen essentials, storage solutions and even smart-home tech gadgets. Of course, it's no secret that Amazon is known for competitive prices, but this sneaky sales nook tends to slip under many shoppers' radars. Well, now you can officially consider yourself in the know. You're welcome!

As Yahoo's senior deals writer who specializes in all things home and kitchen, I'm eyeing some stellar markdowns on everything from a Stanley-esque (but more affordable) Hydro Flask tumbler, just $26, to a Bissell robot vacuum and mop (down to its best price in months at $128 off).

There's more where those came from — lots more. I'm talking thousands of discounted items across categories. Curious to know what else you can snag for a steal? These are my top picks.

Been meaning to reduce the amount of plastic in your kitchen? Look no further. The locking lids on these food-storage heroes create an air-tight seal, while the glass containers themselves can safely go into the microwave, freezer, oven and dishwasher. Plus, they're easy to stack, and at less than $3 apiece (nearly 65% off), you're getting a stellar bargain.

Sure, these might be dubbed "moving bags," but even if you don't plan on changing addresses anytime soon, they'll come in handy for storing seasonal items. For instance, do you really need sweaters taking up space in your closet when it's 80°-plus? And come winter, you'll need extra room for those bulky blankets, so pack up the sundresses you won't be wearing for months anyway. These heavy-duty containers hold up to 60 pounds, are made of waterproof material and have little windows for labels so you'll know what's stashed inside. At nearly 45% off, they're on sale for as low as they've been since 2024.

Staying hydrated is especially important during the summer, and if you'd rather not shell out for a Stanley, this bottle is just as aesthetically pleasing, keeps drinks cold for hours and has a tapered bottom to fit in your cupholder. It's also less expensive, especially now that it's on sale for 30% off (Stanley thermoses of this size can cost $40 and up).

Of course, now you'll need to keep your new favorite water bottle(s) from cluttering up your cabinets, and that's just what these tiered shelves were designed to do. Each level fits three 40-ounce tumblers so they're not rolling around or crashing down as soon as you open your cupboard doors. Add 'em to your cart while they're a record-low 40% off.

This 2.4-pounder is light enough that you'll be able to use it on furniture, countertops and stairs without breaking a sweat — but what it lacks in heft, it makes up for in power and runtime (as in, it'll work for up to 90% longer per charge than the brand's leading hand vacuum). This is its best price in months, so if you're on the fence, consider hopping off and adding it to your cart.

Hate having to drag out a cutting board every time you need to slice an onion? And does said onion make your eyes tear up with the sting of a hundred jellyfish? That's why thousands of shoppers reach for this No. 1 bestseller, which chops produce into tiny, uniform pieces with just one push. And because everything falls into the attached tray, you'll keep your counter clean too. This discount brings it down to just $1 more than its record low.

If you've had one of these bad boys on your wishlist for a while, I'd urge you to scoop up this deal while you can. Why? Well, it happens to be down to its lowest price in months. Cleaning your floors doesn't get much easier than turning it on and letting it take care of dry and wet messes. It can run for up to 130 minutes per charge and is smart enough to sense when it's near carpeting (thus, pausing the mop function).

For a fraction of the price of a certain — ahem — French brand, you're getting durable cast iron with a slick enameled interior that makes cleanup quick and easy. Trust me, it'll become one of your most-reached for cooking vessels, so be proactive and snag it while it's down to an all-time low.
