We covered hundreds of products during Amazon Prime Day 2020, and filtered through thousands more. From a small countertop microwave to deeply discounted AirPods, here’s the stuff we actually bought.

$89.99 $83.01 (8% off)

“I haven’t owned (or really needed) a microwave in probably five years — blame small New York City kitchens — but WFH life has changed my priorities. Let’s just say eating cold pasta for lunch three days a week got real old, real quick.” — Jack Seemer, Deputy Editor

$60.00 $32.50 (46% off)

“I find myself drawn to the simple stuff on Prime Day. Multipacks of cheap cutting boards, my favorite snacks at 30 percent off and so on. Champion hoodies fit nicely into that mold. If I have to sit inside for the foreseeable future, it’s going to be in the coziest state I can manage.” — Will Price, Assistant Editor

$29.97 $22.38 ($7.59 off)
“I just moved, and in the process, I realized it was time to toss my janky old stovetop kettle I bought for $5 in college.” — Will Sabel Courtney, Editor

“My wife and I just moved into a new place, and it’s feeling a bit empty. When we saw the price, size and good reviews of this rug, we couldn’t help but snagging it to help fill out our living room. Hopefully the cats don’t throw up on this one.” — Scott Ulrich, Editorial Associate

$45.00 $22.66 (50% off)

“How often do you find one of the best travel mugs you can buy for half off?” — Ryan Brower, Commerce Editor

$249.00 $199.00 (20% off)

“I resisted buying the AirPods Pro at launch; my current AirPods worked fine. But Apple recently released a firmware update that allows the Pros to switch automatically between your iPhone and Mac depending on what’s playing audio, which is a huge win for me while working form home. With this $50 price cut, these were finally a no-brainer.” — Ben Bowers, Cofounder & Chief Content Officer

$149.00 $129.99 (13% off)
“Apple charges an extra $20 to get its Magic Keyboard in space gray rather than the silver that comes with all new iMacs. I think that’s crazy, and apparently Amazon does, too. The retailer took $20 off the normally $150 keyboard for Prime Day. I took the bait.” — Tucker Bowe, Senior Staff Writer
