How we chose the best Amazon offers

  • Personal experience: My name is Katherine and I've been shopping Amazon for a living for HELLO! Online for the past four years, so I know a good deal when I see one. I price check against multiple retailers and search high and low for the best discounts. I also reached out to my HELLO! colleagues for their recommendations. 
  • Trusted products: Where possible, we included products tried and tested by the HELLO! Online team - and we only recommend something if we love it. 
  • Ratings: Where we couldn’t personally test the products ourselves, we focused on ratings from Amazon-verified shoppers - only including sale items that had been consistently rated highly for quality and value for money. All of the products had a star rating of 4.5 out of 5 and above. For more information on how star ratings are calculated, please see below.

Once you’ve tried an electric toothbrush, it’s hard to go back - and Oral-B’s models are among the best. They aren’t cheap though, so it’s a good idea to pick one up in the sale if you want one. It’s a hugely popular product on Amazon and features four cleaning modes, a pressure sensor and an  Oral-B app that tracks how and where you brush your teeth. Customers noticed healthier gums within one week of use.

Okay, it might not be the most exciting purchase in the world, but laundry tablets are a necessity that you can’t live without, and it makes sense to stock up when the price is this good.

Battery packs are one of those gadgets that once you get one, you wonder how you ever lived without. We have three at home, and with a family of four technology-addicted individuals, even that doesn’t seem to be enough. Anker’s model packs enough power to charge an iPhone 14 4.3 times over. It’s great for when you’re on the move, or when you just want to keep using your device when it’s running low on power without sitting next to a plug socket.

She says: "Infused with a gentle protein-rich formula, this shampoo is super hydrating and is known for having a cult-like status. It's even believed that Princess Kate uses it as well, though that's never been confirmed."

How Are Amazon Product Star Ratings Calculated?

It’s more than a simple average of customer ratings - Amazon calculates this using machine-learned models, which take into account factors such as how recent the rating or review is and verified purchase status. (This is when Amazon has confirmed that the reviewer bought the item on Amazon and paid a price available to most Amazon shoppers) Amazon’s rating system continues to learn and improve over time, so you can be sure that the rating is up-to-date and accurate.
