Undercooked meat is dangerous, and overcooked meat is like chewing on shoe leather. This digital meat thermometer will help ensure you’ll never stress about either one again. Just poke it into your dinner-to-be and you’ll have a temperature readout in a few seconds. It’s not just for hot foods, either: It can read temps from −58°F to 572°F and has a vibrant backlit display.
If you’re an Amazon Prime member, you may still be able to get this bad boy in time for Father’s Day this Sunday.
“Very good thermometer,” said one fan who bought multiples. “Does what it needs to do. Accidentally dunked it in water and it still worked. Easy to use. Bought a second one for backup and another as a gift. Good housewarming gift or a small gift for a new cook or someone who does not know how to cook meats to temp!”
“This thing rocks!” added another shopper. “I’ve been cooking without one of these my whole 63-year-old life. Last night I was cooking some pork, and after the recommended cooking time, checked [the] internal temp. Perfect. But I know if I hadn’t had the meat thermometer, I would have cooked it longer … I guess I’ll need to apologize for all the dry meat I’ve been serving all my life.”
Another person shared that it made a great gift for Dad. “Bought this for Father’s Day about four years ago. My husband loves this thermometer and won’t cook without it,” they said. “He never fails to tell me how much he enjoys it still.”
If you love wearing leggings, but want something a little breezier (and just as comfy) for summer, these Hanes Capris may be for you. Ideal for lazy weekends or running around in comfort, the soft French terry fabric makes them lightweight and breathable. But it’s the elastic waist that makes them extra cozy! More than 14,00 Amazon shoppers rave about them — right now, they’re the online retailer’s No. 1 bestselling sweatpants.
“These are my new favorite casual pants!” gushed a five-star reviewer. “They are fantastic in every way … fit, comfort, flattering, length, waist, price. The fabric is not too thin or thick, it’s a happy medium. As soon as I got my first pair, I immediately bought two more pairs and I will purchase them again. I sure hope they always have these. Don’t hesitate — get some.”
Danjor sheets are made with super-soft microfiber, giving you a silky hotel-bed feel every time you slip between them. They’re fade-resistant and come in 13 colors. They’re also moisture-wicking and breathable all year, keeping you cozy during the winter and cool in the summer. The six-piece set includes two extra pillowcases, in case you like to sleep with more than one.
More than 110,000 Amazon shoppers give them a perfect five-star rating and attest to their softness. “I love these sheets. They feel so expensive and luxurious,” said one reviewer. “They have almost a silky-soft feel to them and I love that they’re cool every time you get into bed.”
Amazon shoppers like to say “this pan is magic!” The top-seller is equipped to do everything a professional chef might do in a kitchen — sautéing, frying, searing and more — with ease. It’s made with commercial-grade, heavy-gauge aluminum and topped with a PFOA-free nonstick coating, so it heats up fast, distributes heat evenly and your food won’t get stuck to it. Yahoo editors tried it this year and we named it our best nonstick pan of 2024.
“I’ve used probably 20 nonstick frypans over the years. Most are great for a couple weeks, some for a couple months, a very few for more than a year,” explained one home cook. “The Tramontina is in a class by itself. Not only is it dirt cheap in comparison, the coating lasts almost forever (measured in pan years). I just replaced one that worked well for four years. The one before that stayed nonstick for five years.”
Pura D’or’s shampoo and conditioner is formulated to treat thinning hair using a blend of 17 active plant-based herbal ingredients, including nettle extract, saw palmetto and argan oil. It also includes biotin, an essential nutrient that helps promote thickness, and niacin, which works to improve scalp health. The set has over 6,400 five-star reviews at Amazon, with shoppers even sharing the results in photos.
“My hair has grown like crazy and it’s the healthiest it’s ever been,” said one shopper who added that they’ve been using it for months. “Smells great and … a little goes a long way! I dye my hair and use heat as well and it manages to hold its shine and density! Great product!”
Having trouble sleeping? Maybe it’s your pillows. Nab one of Amazon’s most popular sets while it’s 40% off (one of the lowest prices we’ve seen!). The pillows are extra fluffy, filled with an alternative down material that actually feels like down. Nearly 165,000 Amazon shoppers have given these pillows a five-star rating.
“I have been on the search for those super soft hotel feel pillows and I finally found [them],” said one customer. “After letting them sit for some time to fluff up, wow, they were like luscious clouds from the heavens. Exactly what I was looking for!”
This 4-in-1 medical-grade air purifier offers coverage for spaces up to 600-square-feet. The manufacturer recommends replacing the HEPA filters every two to six months for the best results. Just note that the discount is only on the white color, which may go with your home decor better anyways, and you’ll need to apply Yahoo’s exclusive discount code 50PUREAIRTCP at checkout.
“It’s only been plugged in for 24 hours and I can tell a huge difference in my sinus and nasal cavities,” shared one impressed user. “I have three cats and itchy allergies. Today I woke up and my eyes weren’t itchy and I could breathe out of both of my nostrils. AMAZING! Not one sneeze from my sister or me. We didn’t take any kind of antihistamines today, either. Wish I knew about this sooner. Love it!”

Oprah once deemed these her “favorite” joggers and it’s easy to see why. They’re silky smooth, extra stretchy and even somewhat cooling, thanks to their viscose bamboo fabric. They feel like pajamas, but they’re stylish enough to wear outside (and they have pockets). Right now, all colors are on sale, but the white color is the most discounted at 45% off.
Out of 2,100 reviewers, 96% of people say they’d recommend these pants and give them a five out of five on comfort level. “This is my third pair!” said one loyal fan. “I live in them on my work from home days, after hours and on the weekends. They are super soft inside and out. I feel like I am wrapped in a blanket when paired with bamboo socks and bamboo sweatshirt/pullover.”
Hate lugging a heavy vacuum up and down your stairs? You won’t have to with this cordless vac — the sleek design is a major upgrade from bulky dirt-busters of yore. It transforms into a handheld for cleaning furniture and higher surfaces, and a filtration system traps allergens such as pet dander. Score this household helper (one of Yahoo editors’ picks for this year’s best vacuums) for just $320 — a cool $100 off.
“I was unsure about spending so much money on a vacuum but oh my gosh. My house is clean! ” said one pet parent. “I used to have to vacuum and use this rake/broom thing to remove dog hair. Not anymore! I appreciate that it picks up all the dog hair and I don’t have to worry about the hair getting tangled on the vacuum head. Never did I think a vacuum would make me this happy!”
