The members bought more than $2 billion of products from independent small and medium-sized businesses. The offers were available for members in 18 countries, double the number since the first Prime Day five years ago.

It was the biggest event ever for Amazon devices. The top-selling deals worldwide were Echo Dot, Fire TV Stick with Alexa Voice Remote, and Fire TV Stick 4K with Alexa Voice Remote.

Top-selling deals for smart home devices included iRobot Roomba 690 Robot Vacuum, MyQ Smart Garage Door Opener Chamberlain MYQ-G0301, and Amazon Smart Plug.
