The Amazon Prime Big Deal Day is nearly here, but consumer watchdog Which? has dropped a bombshell list of products to avoid — and those worth snapping up if discounted. Known for hardcore lab testing, Which? warns shoppers against some pricey duds lurking in the sale.
Products You Should Steer Clear Of
- Kinderkraft Comfort Up Car Seat: Fails badly on safety.

These flops could ruin your festive spending spree, so best to avoid unless you want buyer’s remorse.
