Best Buy might have the best Labor Day washer and dryer deal already

Now is the time for some great washer dryer deals thanks to the Labor Day sales being in full swing at major retailers like Best Buy. Today, you can buy an awesome LG 5.5 cubic feet High-Efficiency Smart Top Load Washer for $675 or an LG 7.3 cubic feet Smart Electric Dryer for the same price, with both discounted by $675 each. Effectively, that means you buy one of these and can get the other one free, setting you up nicely for all your washing needs. It’s an awesome deal, especially as it’s from such a reputable brand like LG. Here are some details about both offers.

LG is one of the best washing machine brands, known for smart and efficient washers. With the LG 5.5 cubic feet High-Efficiency Smart Top Load Washer, you get TurboWash3D technology which gives your clothes a complete clean while being gentle too. It also has LG ThinQ technology, so you can use its app on your phone to monitor progress as well as maintain your washer. There are five temperature selections along with steam technology for penetrating fabrics. It does all of this while keeping surprisingly quiet, thanks to LG’s TrueBalance anti-vibration system. Little details like a slam proof glass lid, easy dispensing, and a stainless steel tub all add up to ensure the LG 5.5 cubic feet High-Efficiency Smart Top Load Washer is a high-end washer. Personally, I have a different LG washer, and I love how easy it is to check how far along it is when washing, even if I’m on the other side of the house, all thanks to the ThinQ app.

While you’re kitting out your home, it also makes sense to own one of the best dryers. The LG 7.3 cubic-feet Smart Electric Dryer with Steam and Sensor Dry certainly has the pedigree to be one of those. It has a huge capacity of 7.3 cubic feet so you can get plenty of your clothing dried super fast. As with other LG devices, there’s LG ThinQ support so you can use the app to check the progress of your load, while it’ll also give you a heads up when maintenance is needed. TurboSteam technology means that you can dry items in just 10 minutes, all while reducing wrinkles and odors too. It’ll even refresh kids’ toys and decorative pillows as well as everyday wear. With an EasyLoad door, the LG 7.3 cubic-feet Smart Electric Dryer with Steam and Sensor Dry is a breeze to transfer wet clothes from your washer to dryer. By owning two LG devices, you can even use smart pairing so the washer can tell the dryer what drying cycle to use, saving you plenty of effort. It also has FlowSense Duct Clogging and Lint Filter Indicators so you instantly know if either need cleaning so the dryer performance is improved.

A woman using the Shark FlexFusion.

Looking for great hair dryer deals to be the favorite gift giver this holiday season? How about checking out the Shark FlexFusion instead? Styling as well as drying your hair, the device is the ideal way to get salon-perfect hair from home. Right now, there’s 15% off the Shark FlexFusion range when you buy direct from Sharkclean.com. All you have to do is use the code FUSION15 any time between now and December 31. That means you could get a Shark FlexFusion from just $280 depending on the model you choose. Sounds good, right? Let’s take a look at the range.

Why you should buy a Shark FlexFusion
Particularly for anyone with thick hair, buying one of the best hair dryers is a huge game changer. However, it’s an even bigger deal if you combine drying with styling components. Many people love the Dyson Corrale for this role but it isn’t perfect and it’s much more expensive than the Shark FlexFusion. Going with Shark means you can budget for an extra gift or simply enjoy a considerable saving.

The Govee Icicle Lights.

Keen to make your home this holiday season look fantastic? If you’re aiming for a National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation style appearance but want it smarter, you need more than just the Philips Hue deals going on. Right now, you can buy the Govee Icicle Lights set for just $90 at Best Buy so you’re saving $50 off the regular price of $140. They make the outside of your home look gorgeous while being super practical. Here’s all you need to know before you buy.

Why you should buy the Govee Icicle Lights
I love Govee products. Since buying the Govee Lyra Smart Floor Lamp, I’ve been consistently impressed by how well its products work while being very keenly priced. It’s a different kind of technology than the best cheap smart light bulbs but it’s perfect for stringing together some lights around your home or room. The only downside is the company's app isn't as stylish as the Hue one but you get all the same benefits for a much better price.

These Linkind smart bulbs are 37% off, and have one of the best apps I’ve used
Linkind A19 E26 color smart bulbs matter support -- smart bulb deal

I know some people think that a lot of smart home tech is frivolous, and some of it is, I'll agree, but there are certain things that make daily life a little better. For example, I have security cameras, a video doorbell, smart lights, a smart garage door, and all of these things make living in my home convenient. With my lights, for example, I can create on-off schedules and I don't have to get up to use them. After a long day, that's a welcome feature, believe me. It's especially helpful with Christmas lights and decorative lights -- like the ones I have set up to automatically turn on at sunset on my patio.

With a smart video doorbell, I can answer my door, converse with parcel delivery teams, and shoo off solicitors -- we get a lot of them where I live. But among all of those experiences and devices, one of my biggest qualms is with the apps you use to interact with this tech.
