Amazon Spring & Summer 2014 Preview

After a long and harsh winter, we are so ready for spring and summer.  It’s the perfect time for celebration – whether it’s Mother’s Day, Father’s day, graduation, vacation getaways, weddings, or just outdoor fun, Amazon is a one-stop shopping mecca for all your needs.  From the latest electronics to outdoor camping gear, Amazon has everything you can practically want or need.

Here are some Amazon’s favorite picks at its summer preview:

amazon-homeKitchen Utensils & Gadgets: Nothing says home like a gathering around the dining table.  And the first stop before the dining table is the kitchen. Whether it’s creating meals for two or a large clan, Amazon.com has everything you need to make cooking a snap, and healthy and fun for the whole family. Some suggestions would be Oster’s line of appliances - Versa performance blender 1000 series, Mykonos Greek Yogurt Maker, and Compact Juice Extractor.

Patio, Lawn & Garden / Tools & Home Improvement: Warm weather always brings a hubbub of outdoor activity – whether it’s repairing the house, relaxing by the poolside, or hosting a fun barbeque party.  Amazon offers have a wide variety of equipment, tools and décor to make your home look like a castle. Select picks include lawn equipment for landscaping and gardening chores (Greenwork’s eco friendly & zero carbon emission lawn mowers), and for more relaxing activities, the Weber line of barbeque grills, the Vivere double hammock, and Strathwood patio furniture (an Amazon exclusive).

Home: For those who love to entertain at home or just enjoy the serenity of being at home, Amazon offers a vast selection of furniture, décor, furnishings (including Amazon’s exclusive Pinzon line), even a super cute Janome turbo portable sewing machine (perfect for those living in compact spaces but who have that Etsy entrepreneurship).


amazon-eleElectronics: Electronics have become such an integral part of our lives that we are always looking for the latest and greatest.  Amazon always carries the latest models in electronic devices such as headphones, speakers, cameras, tvs, and its own Kindle line.  Kindle hardware has evolved from the original Kindle introduced in 2007 and a Kindle DX line (with a larger screen) introduced in 2009. The range now includes devices with a keyboard (Kindle Keyboard), devices with touch-sensitive screens (Kindle Paperwhite), a tablet computer with a reader app and a color display (Kindle Fire), and a low-priced model with an on-screen keyboard (Kindle).
