Best deals in the John Lewis sale
'Never knowingly undersold on quality, service and price' is the John Lewis promise and John Lewis promises to check and match the prices of 25 leading retailers even when they are running offers. John Lewis says this means you can be confident that you are paying a competitive price - but it does not lead the charge towards the lowest possible prices in the same way that online retailers do.
Even so there are some good deals to be found, which we've drawn together so you don't have to trawl the John Lewis shelves to find the best bargains.
What makes Which? deals different?
Retailers sometimes use misleading ‘was’ and ‘before’ prices to claim their deals are good. Media sites and artificial intelligence (AI) promote deals from retailers – but do they always check them first? We don’t just take retailers’ word for it, we track actual market prices over six months. We share cheapest and average calculations and evaluate products against strict performance benchmarks. So you get good quality at honest prices.
*References to ‘average price' and 'cheapest price' are based on Which? market knowledge and information supplied by our partners. Prices are checked for the six calendar months prior to publication. Not all retailers are included in our checks. We have highlighted John Lewis as the 'Featured' retailer where possible, however, offers may be cheaper at other retailers in the pricing tool.
Best TV deals at John Lewis
LG 43QNED82A6B
Average price in the past six months: £502
Cheapest price in the past six months: £359*
- 43-inch 4K TV
- QLED display
- Supports HDR10 and HLG formats
We like: Simple to use
We don't like: Poor motion handling at SD
The 43-inch 43QNED82A6B is the smallest and cheapest of LG’s QNED range. QNED is unique to LG, but it basically means it has quantum dots to boost colour.
It’s more basic than other QNED TVs, which keeps costs low, but still has a few features you don't always find on TVs in this price range: support for Apple AirPlay 2 and Google Cast, recording and pausing live TV with the built-in PVR, a microphone in the remote that enables you to control some parts of the TV with your voice.
Should you opt for this discounted 43-inch model? Discover all you need to know in our LG 43QNED82A6B review.
Best Echo speaker deals
Amazon Echo Show 5 (3rd generation)
Average price in the past six months: £94
Cheapest price in the past six months: £50
- 5.5-inch display
- Built-in camera
- Doubles up as a digital photoframe
We like: Simple set up with voice control
We don't like: The screen is smaller than most smartphones
The Echo Show 5 is an Alexa-powered smart display with a compact 5.5-inch screen, making it the smallest of Amazon's smart displays and well-suited for bedrooms. It can serve as a bedside alarm clock, be controlled by voice, provide weather updates each morning, and display a slideshow of your favourite pictures when not in use.
The 2Mp camera enables video calls to other Alexa users and allows you to drop in or check on the room remotely, similar to a security camera.

Best indoor security camera deals
Ring Pan-Tilt Indoor Cam
Average price in the past six months: £50
Cheapest price in the past six months: £25
- Mains-powered
- 360-degree pan and 169-degree tilt
- HD video
We like: Adjust the view by moving the camera through the app
We don't like: You need a subscription for some features
If you want to keep an eye on your pets or your valuables when you aren't home, the Ring Pan-Tilt Indoor Cam can watch over the entire room it's in, thanks to its ability to pan and tilt.
A built-in microphone and speaker also allow for the two-way talk feature. That'll come in handy for telling mischievous children to stop misbehaving or for soothing a barking dog.

Best laptop deals at John Lewis
Samsung Galaxy Book6 (16-inch)
Average price in the past six months: £1,300
Cheapest price in the past six months: £1,099*
- Intel Core Ultra 7 processor
- 16GB Ram
- 512GB SSD storage
We like: Ports are particularly generous for a modern laptop
We don't like: Mediocre speakers for the price and size
The 16-inch Samsung Galaxy Book6 is the tech giant’s larger-screen entry-level laptop for 2026 and, as it's new, you can't expect too much of a discount.
It’s powered by a powerful Intel Core Ultra 7 processor (we tested the lower-spec Ultra 5) and Samsung says the battery lasts for ‘up to 24 hours of video playback’.
That big Full HD screen makes it heavy - it's 1.76kg, so better suited to a desk than a bag. One bonus is that it has plenty of ports, namely two USB, two USB-C, HDMI, ethernet, micro-SD card slot and a 3.5 mm headphone socket.

Best vacuum cleaner deal at John Lewis
Bosch Unlimited 7 BCS712GB
Average price in the past six months: £289
Cheapest price in the past six months: £230*
Buy now from John Lewis (£230), or compare prices below:
- Cordless bagless vacuum
- Dust tank: 0.5 litres
- Weight: 3kg
We like: 'Flex tube' allows you to bend and reach under low furniture
We don't like: Loud
If you're looking for a cordless vacuum to clean up everyday messes, this Bosch model is a good option to consider. Bosch claims that it will run for 40 minutes at minimum power. To find out whether that was the case or not, you'll need to read our review.
Regardless, this bundle from John Lewis includes an additional battery, so you'll double your cleaning power without waiting for any long charging times.

Best dishwasher deal at John Lewis
LG DF355FP
Average price in the past six months: £595
Cheapest price in the past six months: £469*
- Freestanding
- Full sized
- Silver
We like: Quiet running
We don't like: Not the cheapest to run
This full-sized, freestanding dishwasher has 14 place settings and a spacious cutlery tray up top, so it’s ideal for medium to large households. Smaller households could also run a half load.
There are nine programs, including main wash (auto), fast (express) and eco cycles, as well as a delicate setting for glassware and an intensive wash for very dirty items. You can also choose to delay the start time by up to 12 hours.
The machine has wi-fi and you can download the LG ThinQ app on Android or iOS to remotely start a cycle from your phone. You can browse and download additional programs, see status information such as energy use, and access the Google voice control assistant.
To find out how well it performs in our tests, read the full LG DF355FP review.
Best fitness tracker deals
Fitbit Charge 6
Average price in the past six months: £149
Lowest price in the past six months: £79
- 36.7 x 23.12 x 11.25mm (HxWxD)
- Fitbit OS
- Removable strap
We like: GPS support
We don't like: Music control is limited
This fitness tracker is equipped with GPS, so there's no need to pair it to your phone for location tracking when you go for a walk, run or cycle ride. It's waterproof to 5 ATM, which means you can use it in shallow water.
The Fitbit Charge 6 can also track your heart rate and monitor your blood oxygen (SpO2) levels although the latter is only active while you're sleeping. As with all consumer wearable devices, never rely on it as a medical device and consult your GP if you have concerns.

Best washing machine deals at John Lewis
Hisense WF3S1043BW3
Average price in the past six months: £339
Cheapest price in the past six months: £289*
- Freestanding
- 10.5kg capacity
- White
We like: Spins well
We don't like: Some unfamiliar symbols on the control panel
The Hisense WF3S1043BW3 is a large-capacity washing machine that connects to wi-fi, so you can keep tabs on its progress via an app. This also allows you to add extra programs and diagnose any faults that may arise.
Its 10.5kg cottons capacity and 5kg synthetics load should make it the right size for homes that create plenty of laundry.
Load sensors adjust the programs to take account of the weight of the load that’s inside, and there’s a useful pause function that allows you to add items after the program has started. You’ll also find a steam function designed to reduce creasing and ensure your laundry is hygienically clean.

Get this Airtag deal from John Lewis (£99)
- Works with FindMy
- Simple to set up
- Sleek design
We like: Multipack to keep track of more things
We don't like: Only compatible with Apple products
Sick of losing your keys, wallet or even your luggage whenever it’s checked in at the airport? If so, it might be time to add an AirTag to your list of Apple devices, as it can help you keep tabs on your most treasured items from afar.
While you can buy one AirTag at a time, the four-pack presents a better value option (especially while it’s on offer) as it means you can keep track of multiple items as needed, without having to constantly swap out the AirTag they’re paired with.
To see what the AirTag is up against, check out our round-up of the best Bluetooth trackers.
Best smartphone deals at John Lewis
Google Pixel 9a
Average price in the past six months: £399
Cheapest price in the past six months: £286*
- 6.3-inch display with 2,424 x 1,080 resolution
- Google Tensor G4 processor with 8GB of Ram
- Two rear camera lenses, including a 13Mp ultra-wide camera
We like: Has seven years of security updates
We don’t like: Front-camera videos could be better
It might be one of Google's mid-range Android phones, but it comes close to the capabilities of the higher-end Pixel 9 series models.
Under the hood, it's powered by the same Google Tensor G4 processor that's used in the more expensive Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro phones. Plus, it has a pOLED (plastic OLED) screen, with a high peak brightness and a 120Hz refresh rate.

- 165°C-210°C min/max temperature
We like: Comes with various accessories
We don't like: Heavy
Corrale hair straighteners benefit from 'enhanced styling and cordless versatility'. They certainly look the part, and come with a heat-resistant travel pouch, Travel Dock charging station and magnetic charging cable.
