Every month at Good Housekeeping, our shopping experts curate a list of the best Amazon deals worth adding to your cart, including some trusted products tested in the esteemed Good Housekeeping Institute.
Amazon's Big Spring Sale has officially come to an end, but that doesn't mean you're doomed to pay full price for all your Amazon purchases in April. In fact, we're still seeing lingering discounts on most-loved items from the sale, including Crest Whitestrips, Levi's denim and spring-ready home decor. Even though this month is devoid of any "official" savings events, you can still score up to 50% off Good Housekeeping Institute-tested items and Amazon best sellers right now.
Shop Amazon's Daily Deals Section
Our favorite finds? Our shopping experts spotted a rare markdown on a three-time GH Bedding Award-winning cooling comforter in Amazon's daily deals section, not to mention 21% off a pair of top-tested Brooks running sneakers and cute spring fashion finds from The Drop for under $50. Just note we were underwhelmed by this month's discounts on Apple, Dyson and Stanley — and we'd recommend holding out on shopping these particular brands until bigger deals pop up.

top-tested whitening brand
3D Whitestrips Sensitive Whitening Kit
amazon.com
Why we like it: If most whitening products give you tooth sensitivity, try this option that's formulated specifically with sensitive teeth in mind. Crest is one of our experts' top-tested whitening strip brands, and this pick claims to gently remove stains after 14 days of use for noticeably whiter teeth.
What you should know: At nearly 50% off, these Whitestrips are on sale for their lowest price since October Prime Day.
our best everyday brooks running shoes
Ghost 16 Neutral Running Shoe
amazon.com
Why we like it: As Amazon's #1 best-selling road running shoes for women, these popular kicks offer lightweight support and a breathable mesh upper. They were named our experts' best everyday Brooks running shoes for their versatile design and neutral cushioning that suits running, walking, cross-training and more.
What you should know: Since they have a neutral footbed, we wouldn't recommend these shoes to those looking for plush cushioning.
Majesty Palm Live Plant
amazon.com
Why we like it: Add a pop of greenery to your home this spring with this live majesty palm plant. As an Amazon #1 best seller, it's earned rave reviews for its vibrant, healthy-looking foliage and stylish pot.
What you should know: This plant thrives in bright, indirect light and requires moderate watering and high-humidity environments — so it may not be the best for beginners. It measures between 3 and 4 feet tall.

Travel Backpack
amazon.com
Why we like it: This personal item-sized bag looks like your average backpack from the outside, but it opens to reveal a suitcase-like interior with compression straps, handy mesh pockets and even a wet bag for toiletries and towels. Plus, it has a separate laptop compartment that can fit devices of up to 15.6 inches.
What you should know: Measuring 16.8 inches by 11 inches, this bag fits the personal item dimensions of most commercial airlines. It comes in several different colors.

our best faux silk pillowcase
Satin Pillowcase

What you should know: This pillowcase comes in Standard, Queen and King sizes and nearly 40 colors.
our best overall water filter pitcher
Everyday Elite Water Filter Pitcher
amazon.com
Why we like it: When it comes to water filter pitchers, our experts love Brita. Online reviewers find this particular pick efficient and like that it's easy to install the filters. You get one pitcher with a 10-cup capacity, plus one filter included with your purchase.
What you should know: This water filter should be hand-washed, according to the manufacturer. Its filter should be replaced about every six months.
our best value jean shorts
Premium 501 Original Shorts
amazon.com
Why we like it: You can never go wrong with the classic high-waisted cut of our experts' best value jean shorts pick from Levi's. "They take shape beautifully and break in with each wear," says Home & Apparel Reviews Analyst Amanda Constantine.
What you should know: You can shop these jean shorts in sizes 23 to 35 and several different washes (though some options are sold out right now). They're made from a non-stretch 100% cotton fabric, which can feel rigid upon first wear.
Listilla Espadrille Wedge Sandal
amazon.com
$49.90
Why we like it: Espadrilles are a timeless warm-weather shoe, and this pair is a steal at just $25. We love that they have a secure ankle strap and a platform sole for extra height without sacrificing comfort. Wear them with sundresses, jeans and everything in between.
What you should know: These sandals come in sizes 5 to 13 and several different colors, but we're partial to this beachy raffia style. Reviewers recommend sizing up a half size for a comfortable fit.
LED Rechargeable Book Light
amazon.com
Why we like it: Over 34,000 five-star reviewers praise this reading light for its compact, flexible design that clips right onto your book for seamless illumination. Its light is fully adjustable with 10 dimness settings and three color temperatures to choose from.
