The Best Early Amazon Prime Day Deals That Are (Already) Live
Tomas Kauer - News Moderator 
Fasten your aprons, folks. J*ffrey B*zos has emerged from his storied, Kardashian-garnished Venice wedding and must now look ahead to his other favorite day this year, Amazon Prime Day, the retail behemoth’s biggest sale event which will span a whopping four days this year, from July 8 to 11. And no cap, the deals are already looking strong this year.
It feels like the door-busting Amazon sale lasts a little longer every year and slashes ever more prices on Bissell Little Green Machines, Echo Dots, and thousands more bestselling items than the year before, which is good news for the budget-mindful consumer, albeit a little overwhelming. All of this (money-saving markdown stuff) sounds nice (necessary), but it requires a bit of machete-chopping through a jungle of so-so deals to find those enticing 20% off and beyond deals on aesthetic juicers and Ooni pizza oven dupes.
That’s why the shopping team at Eater has momentarily steered itself away from testing olive oils and comparing heritage cookware brands to see which of the best early Prime Day kitchen deals are actually worth their salt (ideally, Jacobsen Salt Co. or Maldon).
Plug in your most relaxing scent diffuser, throw some Enya on your Sonos system, and let’s shop for the best early Amazon Prime Day kitchen deals in truly unbothered fashion.

If you’ve been waiting all year for the price of KitchenAid’s iconic, eternally coveted stand mixers to drop, great news: You can currently score one for 22% off (in a pleasing shade of teal).

The Apple Watch SE is on sale for $80 off
“How is an Apple Watch food-related?” you might ask. Well, I literally have a cherry and nectarine clafoutis in the oven right now (my kitchen smells great) and I’m using my Apple Watch’s timer function to make sure I bake it to perfection. Anyway, you’ll save 32% on the Apple Watch SE, which is a pretty major markdown.

Bodum’s chic pour-over coffee vessel
I’m trying to pour less hot things into plastic cups these days, and Bodum’s borosilicate glass and stainless steel drip coffee-maker is a great way to avoid BPA plastic while making a delightful morning cup of brew. The carafe and stainless steel filter are also dishwasher-safe for easy cleaning.
