Home Depot 4th of July Sale 2020: Appliances, grills, tools, and more

The 4th of July falls on the weekend this year (unlike last year, when it fell in the middle of the week), prompting many retailers to start running their early sales all week long, and some longer than that. Home Depot is no exception, and the sale includes deals on a range of items including appliances, tools, grills, and smart home tech.

The sale is traditionally one of Home Depot’s better ones and is a great time to save on some home essentials that you would likely pay close to full price for otherwise. Summer’s also a great time to do some remodeling, and if you’re in the market for new appliances, there are a few special buys that we’d like to bring your attention to. Special Buys are a great opportunity to replace several of your aging appliances at once and save quite a bit of money.

Here are some of the better deals we’ve spotted in this year’s sale.

Home Depot 4th of July appliance deals

We find the best way to buy appliances through Home Depot is to purchase them when the retailer offers them as part of a “Special Buy,” where the more appliances you buy, the more money you save. In many cases, you’ll end up saving 30% to 50%, if not even more. However, there are a few other deals across the site for individual appliances in case you’re not ready to upgrade all of your appliances at once.

  • LG 4-Piece Stainless Steel Appliance Package — $1,748 after Special Buy discount, was $3,646
  • Refrigerators — up to 40% off
  • Ranges — up to 35% off
  • Dishwashers — up to 40% off
  • Washers — up to 40% off
  • Dryers — up to 40% off

As you might expect, the deals on grills and grilling accessories aren’t as great as the ones on appliances because we’re basically in the middle of the grilling season. Still, after a fair bit of searching, we were able to find some solid deals — so if your grill is on its last leg, there’s plenty of time to get a new one at a decent price.

  • Coleman RoadTrip 285 Portable Grill — $220, was $250
  • Royal Gourmet 3-Burner Gas and Charcoal Combo Grill — $360, was $430
  • Royal Gourmet 8-Burner Propane Gas Grill — $390, was $460

  • Vision Grills Kamado Ceramic Charcoal Grill — $622, was $699
  • Weber Genesis II E-310 3-Burner Propane Gas Grill — $699, was $749

The smart home “revolution” wasn’t as revolutionary as some claimed it would be, but there are still some great applications for this technology when it comes to things like home security and climate control. Smart speakers like the Google Home Mini are also hugely popular (and are a great way to take control of your wider smart home ecosystem with simple voice commands), and the Home Depot 4th of July sale has some nice smart home deals and bundles that can save you up to 50%.

  • Google Home Mini Smart Speaker — $29, was $49
  • Honeywell T5 Smart Thermostat — $79, was $109
  • Lenovo Smart Display with Google Assistant — $100, was $200

The 5 best gaming laptop deals in Dell’s 4th of July sale
The Dell G15 gaming laptop powered by AMD Ryzen.

While gaming desktops are great, they don't have the same excellent portability as gaming laptops. So, if you've always wanted one of the latter, then these 4th of July sales are the perfect opportunity to grab yourself one. Of course, if you do want to go for a more traditional desktop option that's still from Dell, then these Alienware 4th of July deals are worth taking a look at, while our roundup of the best gaming laptop 4th of July deals should give you a few more options on top of that.
G15 Gaming Laptop -- $1,000, was $1,150

The Dell G15 is probably one of the most popular gaming laptops on the market when it comes to budget-oriented options. In this configuration, you get a solid RTX 406o, which should easily handle the FHD resolution and 165Hz refresh rate of the monitor with minimal graphical compromises. The Intel Core i7-13650HX is also a reasonably powerful CPU that will handle most games just fine, and productivity tasks should be a relative breeze to do on the G15. Similarly, the 16GB of DDR5 RAM means you get some good speed and capacity for having apps and tabs open, while the 1TB SSD is a good start and will probably be enough for a year or so of gaming before you may have to start deleting games or thinking of expansion with an external hard drive deal.
