Sorry to burst some people's bubbles, but you do actually need to clean your cast iron (yes, with soap). This chainmail scrubber removes any unnecessary gunk without ruining your hard-earned seasoning.

My family fries sopapillas every Christmas, and we swear by this countertop deep fryer. The lid prevents any painful splatters, and we can free up more stove space for the rest of our holiday dinner. And it's compact enough to store anywhere—if you fry things even occasionally, it's worth the purchase.

Everyone's talking about protein, and shakes are still the most convenient method for getting your macros. OWYN is Associate Editor Amanda Mactas's favorite brand. They don't come cheap, but Prime Day is "the best time to stock up," she says.

I have an almost problematic obsession with Trolli gummy worms (they're the perfect candy, sue me). These small individual bags make it easy for me to grab a sweet treat and at least pretend to have some portion control.

You're always going to buy dishwasher pods, so why not save money while doing it?

Vanilla isn't cheap, y'all. But a pro tip from us: Buy whole beans, pop them in a jar of bourbon or vodka, and keep it in your pantry for a few months. You'll make enough vanilla extract to last you forever, and you can reuse the pods to add beans to your baked goods.

I've tried more than my fair share of coffee makers—from Nespresso to Aeropress to Mr. Coffee—and the Moccamaster is the best, bar none. It's easy to use, it's consistent, and it maximizes the flavor of your coffee beans. It's an investment, but it lasts forever (I know people who've had theirs for over a decade!).

"It still whips up thic(k) smoothie bowls like a champ," she says. "I rarely see it on sale for under $500, let alone $350!"

I'm a solo girl on the go, which means I don't have time to make myself an elaborate meal every night. This vacuum sealer, no exaggeration, has changed my life. I make big batches of soups, sauces, and proteins, pop them in my vacuum sealer bags, and freeze them for easy meals whenever I want. No freezer burn for me, thanks.

Cookbook author Molly Baz came out with her own line of mayonnaise last year, and I have yet to taste a bad flavor. My favorite, though, just might be this Dill Pickle Mayo that has little chunks of pickle in each bite. Your sandwiches will never be the same.

I recently purchased this to place under my espresso machine, and it provides significantly more storage for all my coffee tools. And honestly? I'm mad that I didn't wait until Prime Day to buy it.

The only food storage containers I use are deli containers. They come in different sizes, stack easily, and all use the same lid. Plus, it makes me feel like I'm in the cast of "The Bear." Win-win!
