My Best and Worst Amazon Purchases

We’ve all made some questionable Amazon purchases in our lifetime however this year I made many. Online shopping became a serious addiction of mine during the height of the pandemic, especially on Amazon. I’ve decided to share some of those purchases with you and rate them so you won’t make the same mistakes I did. Don’t get me wrong, some of these purchases were definitely worth it but others, not so much. Here are my best and worst Amazon Purchases from 2020!

Let’s start off strong with some of my Best Purchases of 2020!

Amazon Kindle

My Kindle has changed the game for me. I have seriously taken up reading but the books were starting to turn into clutter. My Kindle lets me read unlimited books and not have to worry about having a place for them. I also like some of the perks of Amazon like free books with your Prime membership which makes reading that much more affordable.

Ugg Slippers

I purchased these on Amazon because I wanted them fast and to be able to try on different sizes. I’m glad I did because as with any Ugg product, you have to size down. These slippers are great because they have a harder sole that you can actually wear out but still get to have the comfort of slippers.

Simply Modern Water Bottle

This water bottle is everything! First of all, it’s half the price of a hydroflask which already makes it better. I also love it for all the different lid attachments that Simply Modern sells. Personally, I don’t like straws so I have like a chug lid and it is great. It is also sleek but is 40 oz so I know I’m drinking enough water everyday.

Face Steamer

I am obsessed with my face steamer. It is great to use once every other week and I have seriously seen great results with it. I was happy to purchase it on Amazon because I felt like I had so many options to choose from and the price points were all affordable.

And now on to my Worst Purchases of 2020!

Nintendo Switch

I thought this would have been my best purchase of the year but boy was I wrong. Unfortunately, I haven’t picked this up in months and I absolutely regret purchasing it. I think that I got it during the height of the pandemic and did use it often but now it just sits in its case, not being used.

Treadmill

This was definitely another pandemic purchase that got use but now sits idle. I think part of the reason is it doesn’t really have it’s own place in my house. Most of the time it stays folded up which makes me less motivated to use it because I have to drag it out and unfold it to use it.

Insta Pot

I was using this Insta Pot literally every day or every few days during the summer. I made rice and breads but now I barely touch it. This was something that I definitely I used way to often and just got tired of it. I think it is good to have on hand but it is kind of annoying because of how big and bulky it is.

Mini Humidifier

My mini humidifier I purchased is not nearly as powerful as it said it was. I got it for during the day when I didn’t want to put on my big one but it doesn’t do anything. This was a wasteful purchase because it now just sits in my drawer because I feel bad throwing it out.

These purchases definitely reflect the wild year that we had. I was all over the place with my purchases and I absolutely regret some of those worst purchases. I hope this post helps you find some cool things on Amazon and has you steer clear of others. Let me know in the comments below your worst Amazon purchases ever!
