Amazon slashes prices for LectroFan white noise sound machines for Prime Day

It’s a noisy world out there and sometimes masking the noise is the only way you can concentrate, relax, or go to sleep. Amazon slashed the price of three Adaptive Sound Technologies LectroFan white noise sound machines for Amazon Prime Day.

We’ve found the best discounts on LectroFan from Amazon, including the latest model, the LectroFan Micro2 which does double duty as a sound machine and a Bluetooth speaker. Whether you’re looking for a sound machine as a gift for someone who has trouble sleeping or you want to cut the disruptive noise in your life, these three smart home deals can help you save up to $18.

Adaptive Sound Technologies LectroFan– 30% off

The original LectroFan, sometimes called the LectroFan Classic, uses a combination fan sounds and color sounds to help you sleep, rest and relax, and even concentrate by masking distracting noises. You can also use the LectroFan for soothing background noise if you ever have those times when “it’s just too quiet.” There are no moving parts, and the LectroFan doesn’t move the air like a mechanical fan. What it does do, however, is let you select from 10 types of fan sounds and 10 color noises, such as white noise, brown noise, and pink noise. The LectroFan has an adapter to plug into either an AC outlet or a USB port. You can turn it on and off, or set a 60-minute timer.

Normally priced at $50, the LectroFan is 30% off during Prime Day 2019. If you’ve been looking for a white-noise machine or something to block out distracting sounds, this Amazon customer favorite has an average 4.5-star rating (on a 5-star scale) from more than 5,700 customer reviews. This a great opportunity to take advantage of this an awesome price.

LectroFan Evo– $18 off

The LectroFan Evo adds some significant features to the classic model. In addition to 10 fan sounds and 10 color noises, the LectroFan Evo also has ocean and surf sounds. There’s also a 3.5mm audio-out jack so you can use the LectroFan Evo with headphones so others won’t hear the sound or connect a larger external speaker to fill the room with soothing sounds.

Usually discounted to $43, the LectroFan Evo is an extra 30% off for Prime Day. If a sound machine with wave sounds is appealing or if you want the added versatility of an audio-out jack, this is a good chance to save money on the upgraded LectroFan Evo model.

Lectrofan Micro2 — $10.50 off

The Lectrofan Micro2 lets you take your sound with you when you travel because the compact device measures just 2 inches by 2 inches by 2.1 inches and weighs only 6.4 ounces. The Micro2 runs on an internal rechargeable battery, or you can plug it into a USB port to charge the battery and power the speaker simultaneously. Bluetooth wireless technology in the LectoFan Micro2 gives the smart device two additional roles. You can use the Micro2 as a Bluetooth speaker with your smartphone or another streaming-capable device. The portable LectroFan can also function as a high-fidelity speakerphone when you pair it with a Bluetooth smartphone.

Regularly priced $35, the Lectrofan Micro2 is an extra 30% off for this sale. If you’re shopping for a portable sound machine, with or without the added Bluetooth speaker and speakerphone functions, jump on this specially-priced deal.

This Vitamix is back to its lowest price of the year for Prime Day
Vitamix5200 Professional-Grade blender

Prime Day deals offer some of the best opportunities of the year to upgrade your home appliances. We're seeing some fantastic price cuts on quality products. If you've been using a mediocre blender, for instance, you can use Prime Day to upgrade to something that a professional chef would use in an industrial kitchen. We're not kidding around here. The Vitamix 5200 professional-grade blender is currently on sale for $300. That may seem steep for a blender, but it's usually $550. This price matches the previous lowest price for this blender, so now is truly the best time to buy it.

Why you should buy the Vitamix 5200 during Prime Day
The best blenders are fairly simple devices. There are only two features that matter: how well it blends and the variety of settings. To get one thing out of the way, Vitamix blenders are high quality. This Vitamix has a cool-running motor that was built in the U.S. and designed to last for years. It works with both hot and cold food, so you can blend ice into smoothies just as easily as you can blend roasted vegetables into soup. It can also handle sticky dough for cookies and bread. When you're done blending, the clean-up is super easy. Just blend some warm, soapy water in the Vitamix, then rinse it out.

Prime Day deals drop the price of this LG soundbar bundle from $600 to $297
The LG S75Q 3.1.2-channel soundbar with subwoofer with a TV.

If you're not impressed by the audio output of your TV, give it a boost by buying a soundbar from this year's Prime Day deals. If you don't want to go through all the offers, here's a recommendation -- the LG S75Q 3.1.2-channel soundbar, which is available for just $297. It's down to less than half its original price of $600 following a $303 discount from Amazon, but you're going to have to hurry with your purchase if you want to get the soundbar for this cheap. If you wait until the last minute of the shopping holiday, there's a good chance that you'll miss out.

Why you should buy the LG S75Q 3.1.2-channel soundbar
As the best TVs get thinner, they no longer have enough space for top-tier speakers. If you want the complete cinematic experience in your living room, you're going to have to invest in a soundbar like the LG S75Q 3.1.2-channel soundbar. Our guide on how to buy a soundbar explains what those numbers mean -- the "3" refers to the number of channels, namely left and right channels, plus a center channel that makes speech in movies and shows clearer, while the "1" means that the soundbar comes with a subwoofer that is dedicated for low-frequency audio like rumbling bass and explosion sounds. Lastly, the "2" means that there are two dedicated drivers that fire up to the ceiling to bounce sound down and create an enveloping effect to enable Dolby Atmos surround sound and DTS: X.
