Our top pick

The M2 iPad Air hasn’t even officially been released, but it already got its first discount. If you pre-order it as of May 14, you can save $29.01. Sure, it’s not the biggest discount ever, but it’s enough to make a difference. The new iPad Air is a welcomed upgrade from the previous generation — although not a massive design change.

“Aside from a new 13-inch size and relocated webcam, there aren’t many changes design-wise, but the M2 chip brings sweet energy efficiency and a performance uptick,” writes Kimberly Gedeon in her Mashable review.

The 11-inch option is on sale for just $569.99 when you pre-order it at Amazon — that’s a 5% discount from its regular $599 price tag.

Hunching over your tiny laptop screen is far from the ideal way to work. Snag yourself a monitor and extend your workspace without breaking the bank with this Samsung 27-inch Essential Monitor S4 deal. As of May 14, it’s on sale for just $119.99 at Amazon — that’s 45% in savings and its lowest price to date.

Advanced eye comfort technology reduces strain on your eyes, while AMD FreeSync keeps your graphics and refresh rate in perfect sync. The monitor swivels, tilts, and pivots, so you can find your perfect angle. And with HDMI and DisplayPort connectivity, you can connect your work setup with ease.

It’s cookout season, y’all. Make sure you’re prepared with a proper grill for the occasion. The Traeger Grills Pro 22 electric grill and smoker is on sale for its lowest price ever, just $389 (reg. $499.95), so you can spice up your setup just in time.

As a wood-pellet grill, you’ll be able to achieve that perfect wood-fired taste by cooking hot and fast or low and slow. It offers six-in-one versatility to grill, smoke, bake, roast, braise, and barbecue with precision temperature control and an impressive 572 square-inch cooking surface. That’s big enough to accommodate four chickens, five racks of ribs, or two dozen burgers.

When you’re doing your spring cleaning, don’t forget the cracks and crevices in your car, your furniture, and everywhere in between. You know, the places your regular vacuum can’t reach. That’s where the Shark Wandvac comes in handy — and it’s on sale for 23% off as of May 14.

Weighing in at just over a pound, the handheld vacuum is easy to maneuver and compact enough to fit just about anywhere. Its high-speed brushless motor and streamlined airflow offer powerful suction for such a small gadget, making it a breeze to suck up all the crumbs and dog hair plaguing your fabrics. Usually $129.99, you can snag it on sale at Amazon for just $99.99 — that’s just $10 shy of its all-time low price.
