At Wirecutter, we spend hundreds of hours researching, testing, and writing about our picks. So when we say something is a top pick, we really mean it. Unfortunately, just because we think something will work the best for most folks, that doesn’t mean the product is always the most affordable. That’s where the Deals team steps in. We keep an eye on everything our experts recommend to bring you the best discounts we can find. This week, we’ve found six impressive deals on top picks—whether you’re seeking a new OLED TV to upgrade movie night or a great pair of earplugs to protect your ears.

The world is a noisy place, and our ears are often left unprotected. Anything from attending a loud concert to driving down the highway can add up over time. If you’re looking for a way to preserve your hearing without spending a ton, the Loop Experience Earplugs are our favorites. Down to $25 shipped when you use the code LOOPXANNASK, the Loop plugs delivered superior noise protection that trumped any non-custom option we tested. Whether you’re at a live show or working out, the Loop earplugs fit discreetly and securely in your ears. We’ve seen slightly better deals in the past, but this drop is still a rare chance to snag a pair below $30 with shipping.

An OLED TV is going to give you the best-looking image of any other TV on the market, hands down. We think our top pick balances quality and price—although it’s expensive (even on sale). The LG C1 produces fantastic 4K HDR images, has a sleek build, and supports leading high-dynamic range standards—so you’ll get the best picture possible from HDR sources. You can also customize and tweak the visuals, no matter the media, with both a filmmaker and game mode optimizer. We’ve seen quite a few deals offering store credit or gift cards, and even though this deal excludes such offerings, it’s a better flat discount overall and includes a standard one-year LG warranty. As always, standard shipping from Woot is free for Amazon Prime members.

The iRobot Roomba i3 robot vacuum.

Nimble and great for folks with pets, the Roomba i3+ is one of our top robot vacuum picks. The i3+ is an impressive cleaner that can thoroughly clean a large space and does a great job on carpets and rugs. But what really sets this robo vac apart is the fact that it empties itself when finished. Although it’s not as clever or fast as some other models, this durable bot is great for bigger homes, and the large-capacity bin needs emptying only every other month. The deal is also a new low price for this model in refurbished condition, so you’re not only saving but recycling, too. Don’t forget to use the code REFURB15 to get the discounted price.

Side-, stomach-, and back-sleepers rejoice: The Leesa Hybrid can support all. Providing better cooling and a thicker cover than the competition—plus a 100-day trial period and a 10-year warranty—our longtime top pick for the best memory-foam mattress is back on sale for the low price we saw during Sleep Week. Combining the best components of foam and spring mattresses, the Leesa Hybrid has an internal layer of springs offering a gentle bounce, while the memory-foam top provides optimal pressure relief. This mattress is also a great option for people who weigh more than 200 pounds. If you’re searching for your Goldilocks mattress, the Leesa Hybrid might be the one. Make sure to use the promo code WIRECUTTER to get the discounted price.

The Bissell Little Green Portable Carpet Cleaner 1400B, our pick for best portable carpet and upholstery cleaner.

Life is messy. To stay on top of spills and stains, we can use all the help we can get. This portable Bissell carpet cleaner uses a combination of a handheld suction brush, hot tap water, and cleaning formula to make quick work of whatever mess you come across. It’s a great tool if you have pets or kids, or if you simply find yourself regularly cleaning small stains on carpets, furniture, or your car’s interior. Just keep in mind that this cleaner won’t tackle a whole room’s worth of carpets or rugs, nor will it deep-clean and disinfect upholstery and carpeting. Although the Little Green used to mostly hover around $110, it’s recently seen a street-price increase, making this deal the only notable discount we’ve found within the past six months.

Samsung SSD 980 (1 TB NVMe)
Deal price: $100; street price: $130

If you want to upgrade from a traditional hard drive for better performance, most modern SSDs will do the job well. But if you’re looking for the best value for your money, the Samsung SSD 980 sets itself apart. Our pick for folks using a modern desktop or laptop computer, the 980 is fast, comes with good software, and has a five-year warranty from a reputable company. Besides boosting your computer’s speeds, it can also easily handle photo and video editing, as well as other kinds of professional apps. This deal matches the best price we’ve seen for our top pick in the 1 TB size.
