OK, we're going to make this one quick, because you're running out of time. In fact, if you want to skip this whole intro and start buying our top lightning deal picks below, we wouldn't blame you.

If you're still here, though, we're here to tell you about some great lightning deals that are live during the second day of Prime Big Deal Days. If you don't already know what Amazon's lightning deals are, they're basically time-sensitive, limited-stock items that get steep discounts. That means if you want in, you need to be quick because you're not only fighting the clock, but also the other deal-hungry shoppers who want the same stuff as you do.

So, what are you waiting for? Take a look at our top lightning deal picks below, and check out the lightning deal landing page if you want to see even more offers. Some of the brands included are questionable, to say the least, but if you look hard enough, you’ll find some diamonds in the rough. For even more deals, head to our live blog to read all the latest live coverage of the event.

Best kitchen deal

$303.20 at Amazon
$379.99 Save $76.79
 

Why we like it

One item you definitely shouldn't cheap out on is your kitchen's go-to pot and pan set. You're going to be cooking your food with these things, so they should be high-quality! This six-piece pot set from HexClad is normally a whopping $379, but during its lightning deal period, it's only $303.20. We know that's still pretty pricey, but a $76 discount on a well-made, nonstick HexClad set is worth the investment.

Best air purifier deal

$159.99 at Amazon
$199.99 Save $40
 

Why we like it

If you don't already have an air purifier in your home, it's probably time to change that — unless you like breathing in dust and other allergens. Levoit is a trusted air purifier brand, and this model from their lineup is $40 off the usual price as a lightning deal (just $159.99). The HEPA-equipped purifier will keep your air clean and features smartphone support for quick, at-a-glance air quality measurements whenever you want them.

Best photography deal

$159.99 at Amazon
$199.99 Save $40
 

Why we like it

Why get your film photos scanned when you can do it at home? The Kodak Slide N Scan allows you to do exactly that, and lets you see your scans right away thanks to the included LED screen. You can even edit directly on the screen, but you may want to upload them to your laptop so you can use your preferred software for more detailed adjustments. Pick one up while it's a lightning deal and save yourself $40.

Best travel deal

$24.69 at Amazon
$45.99 Save $21.30
 

Why we like it

While the HiLIFE brand may not be synonymous with just about anything, this portable steamer is actually very highly rated and has been on sale during multiple other Prime Day events. If you travel often, we highly recommend having a steamer handy for getting stubborn wrinkles out of your clothes so you can look your best, whether you're traveling for work or pleasure. It's only $24.69 as a lightning deal, which is $21.30 off the original price.
