But it wasn’t just Amazon products that were scooped up over the holidays. Shoppers also ordered items from small businesses and entrepreneurs—more than one billion products, according to Amazon (AMZN). In the five-day period between Thanksgiving and Cyber Monday, shoppers bought close to 140 million items from these small businesses.
Amazon’s best-selling kitchen item worldwide was the Instant Pot, a line of electric cookers that spurred a phenomenon this year. Among health and personal care products, the Fitbit Charge 2 and 23andMe DNA test were bestsellers during the holiday season. And in our growing obsession with smart products, robot vacuums were among the best-selling home items.
