How to choose power tools on Prime Day

When it comes to power tools, it really depends on if you want a one off tool or a collection before you shop deals. Why? It’s all in the battery. If you have a company’s battery for their battery-powered tools, it makes it easier to buy more tools in that line, which often come “tool only.” And, when it comes to battery-powered tools, if you have no battery, you have no tool.

If you really, truly just want a single tool, you can also look for wired power tools. But, if you find a tempting deal on a battery-powered power tool, do yourself a favor and consider the long term. Will you want a leaf blower down the line? What about a battery powered speaker or fan? Go ahead and explore the brand’s offerings (and Prime Day deal offerings) before making a mindless purchase. We often think that our wants and needs for today will reflect our wants and needs in the far future as well, but this is usually not the real story.

Should you find yourself in a near toolless position, now is a great time to build your collection from scratch as well. A lot of toolmakers are offering great prices on large bundles of tools, with 8, 10, 12, or more tools included, complete with the associated batteries, chargers, and tool bags. We recommend starting from one of these kits and then supplementing with the tools and accessories not included. In fact, you can buy a bundle now and wait until Black Friday to complete your set, there’s no need to rush and do everything now if the stress of planning out your future tool usage is putting you off of even getting started with your collection.

Alternatively, start with Prime Day cordless drill deals, which often come with a battery and charger, then build your collection from there.

How we chose these power tools Prime Day deals

As you can tell from the selection advice, once you pick your brand and battery, you’re somewhat locked in to the brand. It’s almost like shopping for Prime Day Apple deals, just for tools! As a result, we broke down the deals offered to you today by brand, highlighting the three major power tool brands you love: DeWalt, Milwaukee, and Bosch. We’re also covering more power tool Prime Day deals from other manufacturers, in case that’s what you have.

Within each selection, we’re covering a variety of battery-included and “tool only” deals, to best serve the wide amount of situations our readers have. We’re also checking corded tools, which won’t require batteries, and are including them if the price is right. Depending on the manufacturer, you may also see bundle deals, which include a wide variety of tools (and, usually, the battery and charger) such as drills, saws, sanders, grinders, and more. We’re looking for good prices on these, however, as without a good deal, you might be better off building your own collection.

Finally, speaking of looking for good prices, Prime Day is officially an Amazon event. It is important to note that while no other company will be having “Prime Day sales” the way that nearly all have Memorial Day sales, they won’t be sitting around twiddling their thumbs, either. As a result, you’ll see competing sales at this time. We’re checking all of the sales going on to find the best prices.

The Amazon Echo Pop is only $23 for Labor Day
The Echo Pop sitting on a countertop.

With Labor Day sales fully underway, we’re excited to see that Target has dropped the price of the consistently popular Amazon Echo Pop to $23. Normally costing $40, the smart speaker is enjoying a $17 discount -- but only until tomorrow, once Labor Day has finished. It’s been slightly cheaper in the past, but not for a while so, this is nearly as good as it gets. If you’re keen to avoid missing out on one of the better Amazon Echo deals around at the moment, you’ll need to jump on this deal quickly. Here’s what it has to offer.

Why you should buy the Amazon Echo Pop
The Amazon Echo Pop is a cute and smaller Alexa which we described as being “perfectly priced”. It’s an even better price when it’s on sale. The least expensive entry into the Alexa ecosystem, the only thing you’ll really miss here is that there’s no aux input, but otherwise it’s a good way to add an Alexa to your home.

Drinks being made with the Keurig K-Cafe Special Edition.

Around these parts we love the best coffee makers, surprises, and sneaky reveals just as much as the next batch of humans. What we don't like? Unnecessary extra effort. But we're willing to go through extra steps to help you out. In Target's Labor Day deals selection, we've noticed a curious deal on the Keurig K-Cafe Special Edition. The site won't let you know the price until you put it in your cart. To save you the trouble, we did it ourselves and it turns out to be pretty good savings. With this deal the Keurig K-Cafe Special Edition was marked down to $160, which is $40 down from the regular $200. If you want to double check and see if you get the same deal, go ahead and tap the button below. Otherwise, keep reading to see why we like this deal.

Why you should buy the Keurig K-Cafe Special Edition
While nearly all Keurig coffee makers have single serve modes, few do it as well as this one does. Here, you can make yourself a regular coffee or a frothy latte or cappuccino from the same machine. It all comes from a special attachment to the side that will help you froth up your milk, including "milks" of the soy and almond variety. You can either pull a shot or make coffee in 6, 8, 10, or 12 ounce sizes, all poured directly into a mug up to 7.2 inches tall.
