Your toolbox looking like it needs a little refresher? Here are the best deals on tools ahead of Prime Day 2023:


Amazon recently announced that it will hold its annual Prime Day sales event on July 11 through July 12, and we've already started rounding up the best deals for you across many categories (check out our dedicated Prime Day tab to save yourself some time).

Among these deals are some not-to-miss markdowns on hand tools, power tools, gardening tools, and more. If you're looking to update your toolbox (or buy your very first power tools), Amazon's early Prime Day sale has you covered. Here are some of the best tool deals we've found so far.

Note: We're updating this page constantly, so check back often.

Hand tool deals

Why we like it

The DEWALT Compound Pliers Set is one of those toolkit staples you just have to have. Each plier is made of chrome vanadium steel for extra strength and durability and is also diagonal cutting — which provides more cutting power than standard pliers. Sometimes pliers can be clunky and cause sore hands, but this set from DEWALT eliminates those problems with its bi-material handles and cross hatch tooth design for more stable gripping.

Power tool deals

Why we like it

The Greenworks 24V Brushless Cordless Drill Impact Driver Combo kit comes with two batteries, one charger, an eight-piece drill bit set, and a bag for easy storage. The drill and impact drivers in this set are powerful and allow for variable-speed transmissions. As a bonus, you can operate them without feeling like you're lifting weights at the gym: the drivers have ergonomic, non-slip handles and the whole kit only weighs 4.7 pounds.

Gardening tool deals

Why we like it

These pruning shears are durable, with an all-steel build and non-slip grip. Their rust-resistant, low-friction coating helps the shears glide through wood smoothly. Beyond cutting branches, the sheers' sharp blades can help you prune your herb garden, cut flower stems on that fresh bouquet, and so much more. We think the Fiskars Bypass Pruning Shears belong in every good gardener's home.

Tool storage deals

Why we like it

The Akro-Mils 30230 AkroBins Plastic Hanging Organizer Bin set (that was a mouthful!) comes with 12 stackable pieces made of industrial plastic that's rust, water, and corrosion-proof. The bins' outside measurements are 5.5" x 10.875" x 5" and, should you want a color other than "Clear," Akro-Mils has other options to fit your taste. Use this heavy-duty bin set to put all your newly purchased hand and power tools in order.
