Black Friday home deals: I shop for a living, and here's what's actually worth buying
Some of our favorite home upgrades — from kitchen appliances to vacuums to bedding — are currently at their all-time best prices for Black Friday.
Cozy season is here, and if you feel like your home could use some spiffing up, you're not alone. The more time we spend indoors, the more time we have to notice the worn cushions on the sofa or those stubborn dust bunnies collecting in the corners of every room. Lucky for us, Black Friday sales have delivered major markdowns on everything you need to enhance your house. We shopping editors have years of experience monitoring holiday sales, and we're seeing some great discounts on vacuums, kitchen appliances, bedding and more from retailers like Amazon, Walmart and Target.
We know not all deals are created equal, which is why we treat Black Friday weekend like the Super Bowl. We spend a lot of time "training," as in studying price histories and reviews to ensure the markdowns we're sharing are legit — and are on legitimately good products. This year, our trackers have alerted us to some all-time low prices. Score!
If you're more in the mood to give than receive, know that a lot of the items on this list make great holiday gifts. We'll keep updating this with fresh deals, so check back often. Happy shopping (and saving)!
Best Black Friday vacuum deals
Been dyin' to try a Dyson? Now would be a great time to snag this lightweight dust destroyer, considering it's 45% off. It can run for up to 40 minutes before needing a recharge, and because it's cordless, you won't have to look for a free outlet each time to move it to a different room.
Oh, and it comes with several cleaning attachments, has a whole-machine filtration system and is effective on both hard and carpeted flooring.
If there's one type of Shark we're always happy to run into, it's one that's on sale — and this over-50% off deal is pretty Jaws-dropping. Complete with a HEPA filter, this bad boy will help purify the air while it sucks up dust bunnies.
(Psst: This price beats Amazon's!)

This small-but-mighty sucker, a viral fave for a while now, targets unsightly spots, minimizes odors and more on both carpets and upholstery in a perfectly portable way. At under 10 pounds, it's on the lighter side for a deep cleaner, and it's versatile enough to use on furniture — even car interiors. Plus, the 15-foot cord is long enough to keep you from having to find a new outlet every five minutes.
This set comes with the Little Green, a 3-inch tough stain tool, a HydroRinse self-cleaning hose tool, a spraying crevice tool, a trial size 8-ounce Spot and Stain with Febreze formula and a one-year limited warranty. You can snag it for nearly 35% off, which is just about as low as it usually goes on sale for.
