This is the biggest price drop we've seen, nearly $20 less than on Black Friday, so it's definitely worth pulling the trigger if youve been thinking about a new pair.
Sony WH-1000XM3 Wireless Noise-Canceling Headphones
The deal:$278-$280 atAmazon

For years, Bose was essentially the only game in town for top- quality noise-canceling, but Sony has been hot on their tail. This is one of the most popular models on the market, and while we still think Boses flagship model sounds better, the Sony delivers great sound and noise-blocking performance. This is a good price; they usually sell for about $350.

Vacuums
Dyson Cyclone V10 Motorhead
The deal:$348 atAmazon
CRs test results:Dyson Cyclone V10 Motorhead
The Dyson Cyclone V10 Motorhead is superb on carpets and bare floors, and at getting rid of pet hair. It makes a bit of a racket as you work, but youll appreciate the clean emissions. Like the other Dyson models, this one's Overall Score takes a hit because of the brand's Poor reliability ratings. Youre saving about $150 off the usual price.
Shark APEX DuoClean Zero-M Powered Lift-Away AZ1002
The deal:$289 atAmazon
CRs test results:Shark APEX DuoClean Zero-M Powered Lift-Away AZ1002
The 17-pound Shark Apex DuoClean Zero-M Powered Lift-Away AZ1002 is bagless and has micro-filtration, as well as a detachable handheld canister and a 30-foot manual-wind cord. This high-end Shark is packed with bells and whistles, yet it underperforms in CRs most important test: It rates just Good for cleaning carpet, a score that trails many uprights. That said, it cleans bare floors and pet hair especially well, has exceptional suction power, and its emissions are free of debris. This vacuum usually sells for $400.
Shark Ion F80 Cord-Free MultiFlex IF281
The deal:$259 atAmazon
CRs test results:This 8.8-poundShark Ion F80 Cord-Free MultiFlex IF281tackles pet hair and bare floors with ease but struggles on carpet, so it might not be the best option if you have a lot of rugs in your home. It comes with two batteries, so technically youre getting twice the cleaning timein our tests it ran for 24 minutes on one battery charge. This model usually lists for $450.
Shark Navigator Lift-Away Professional NV356E
The deal:$211 atAmazon
CRs test results:Shark Navigator Lift-Away Professional NV356E
The Shark Navigator Professional Lift-Away NV356E earns an Excellent rating for cleaning bare floors and a Very Good rating for cleaning carpet. Its not the best at cleaning up pet hair, so look elsewhere if you share your home with a furry friend or two. This model is baglessand emissions are clean, but like all bagless vacuums, you have to take care not to release debris when you empty the bin. Suction through the hose isnt very impressive, so this model isnt ideal if you often use attachments. At its usual price of $250, this vacuum is already moderately priced, but now you can save $40 on top of that. In our member survey, Shark uprights earn a Very Good rating for predicted reliability and an Excellent rating for owner satisfaction.
Shark Rocket HV301
The deal:$162 atAmazon
CRs test results:Shark Rocket HV301
This Shark stick vac normally sells for a little less than $200, so youre saving around $40. Consumer Reports has not tested this model, though we tested a similar model, the Shark Rocket HV302. The Shark Rocket HV302 earns an Excellent rating for pet-hair pickup and does a super job removing surface debris from carpet. Its also above average at cleaning bare floors. In our member survey, Shark stick vacuums get top marks for predicted reliability and owner satisfaction.
Shark Rocket Pet Pro IZ162H
The deal:$185 atAmazon
CRs test results:Theres a lot to recommend about theShark Rocket Pet Pro IZ162H, including its superb performance at cleaning carpet and bare floors, and vanquishing pet hair. It operates quietly, and emissions are clean, so you dont have to backtrack over areas you already cleaned. But we had to ding this model for its poor performance cleaning along the edges of a room; it earns only a Fair rating on that test. This model usually lists for $300.
Shark Rotator Powered Lift-Away NV752
The deal:$232 atAmazon
We havent tested this model, but we expect its performance to be similar to theShark Rotator Powered Lift-Away NV650, which we did test. The 650 is aces at cleaning bare floors and picking up pet hair, earning Excellent ratings on both tests. Cleaning carpet, however, was a bit of a challenge for this upright, so try another model if you have lots of floor coverings. The 752 usually lists for $350.
