25 early Prime Day deals I actually recommend — save up to 60% this weekend on Asics, Bose, Ninja and more

(Image credit: Amazon / edited by Gemini) As a Deals Editor, I’m extremely picky about what I buy — especially when it comes to Amazon. With October Prime Day just around the corner, I’ve been spotting plenty of “too-good-to-be-true” deals that are frankly a waste of time and money. But there are also plenty of genuinely great deals worth knowing about, too. The tricky part? Figuring out which is which. Fortunately, that’s where I come in.Over the past few months, I've spent a lot of time tracking deals and testing new products, which has given me a strong sense of what's truly worth buying and what isn't. That's why I've decided to curate a list of early Prime Day products that myself or the Tom's Guide team has tried and more importantly recommends.From the Stanley water bottle that I bring with me everywhere to the Shark vacuum that makes my home sparkling clean, here are all the deals that are tried, true and actually worth your money ahead of Prime Day. I'm Olivia Halevy, a deals editor for Tom's Guide. I'm cutting through the Prime Day noise and handpicking deals that are actually worth your time and money. I've tested several of the products below and I still use them all on a daily basis, so you can trust that they're that good.
